"Garash, indeed they seem to be," Nilgaar says over his shoulder as he reloads his crossbow and takes aim at the suddenly BIG (and easier to hit) priest of Kord. "And timid as well. Look at the others how they cower inside the arena doors!"
K-CHUNK!
1d20+5=10, 1d8=5 ...and it streaks just past his right ear up into the stands.
"Aww, pig balls! That priest is a wee bit tough to hit, ain't he?"
Firing at Spartacus:
1d20+6=19, 1d8+4=10
The arrow deals nonlethal damage, and forces a DC 11 Will save or fall asleep.
If I recall correctly, he can make a Ride check to use his mount as cover, I think. If that is the case, does my arrow hit the horse instead?
The rules don't seem to address the whole "hitting cover" stuff with regards to the horse, but unless someone can site something better, I would rule that if the shot would have hit the person without cover, then the cover bonus to ac would mean that the cover blocked the shot. So the horse would be hit in this instance, but could Spartacus use another ride check to try to negate that damage also? I would say yes to that, it doesn't state how many ride checks can be made in round, but it does state under "mounted combat" that he could only negate damage once per round.

This makes perfect sense to me.
I had forgotten about the Mounted Combat though... This could be bad!
"Hey, Spartacus! Looks like none of them likes ya too much. He he! I say take that oversized furball Kord worshipper out with a good hit with that long stick of yer's."
Also, if he decides to drop down and use his mount as cover he won't be able to attack this round.
"Aww, pig balls! That priest is a wee bit tough to hit, ain't he?"
"An he got a long arm wid dat chain now..."
Jathali is up.
Loosing another arrow at the now enlarged Cleric, Jathali curses as the arrow clatters ahrmlessly off his armor. 1d20+6=11
Damn your cleric!! I am going to enjoy watching you die!
Rurin is up.
Spartacus also needs to decide if he is using any ride checks or just taking the damage.
Sorry guys, I am not going to be around this weekend. Fakey, can you please run Jathali while I am gone? I'll include my tactics for the next few rounds.
Following Round - Drink Potion of Enlarge Person
Rest of the rounds - If possible (ie in reach and avoid AoOs, grapple the squishies (spellcasters and rogues), otherwise grapple whoever is not enlarged, otherwise attack wo is left.
I stay mounted and take the damge.
The gnome intones a spell upon himself with a cheerful, sing-song voice and moves to seek cover.

Your speed would be 25feet, longstrider adds 10' speed to your 15' of speed.
Garash is next.

No, you are correct. Re-reading the entry I do notice the "base" in there, I had thought it was a flat +10' to movement. Sorry for the ridiculnessitude.
Garash is up
Arenamaster is taking Garash's turn---
Bitey and Garash take a 5' step forward to W6(Bitey) and X6(Garash).
Garash lets loose a sling bullet at Vanin (-4range)miss
*I didn't want to use any cool stuff that Mothman may have wanted to do differently than I would have, so I kept it simple.*
Spartacus is up!
Spartacus charges Vanin ending up at F10:G11
Charge w/ Lance (1d20+13=19)
Damage Roll (1d8+6=13)
Total Damage = 39
My Defense is reduced to 17 until the start of my next turn.
Would that provoke an AoO from Vanin or not?
The preist of Kord strikes out at the mounted warrior barrelling down upon him and hits twice with his large chain.
Combat Reflexes and Additional Attacks of Opportunity
If you have the Combat Reflexes feat you can add your Dexterity modifier to the number of attacks of opportunity you can make in a round. This feat does not let you make more than one attack for a given opportunity, but if the same opponent provokes two attacks of opportunity from you, you could make two separate attacks of opportunity (since each one represents a different opportunity). Moving out of more than one square threatened by the same opponent in the same round doesn’t count as more than one opportunity for that opponent. All these attacks are at your full normal attack bonus.
For my team:
"Har! M' teammate beat me to it! Aww, he's a smart one, he is!"
Moving out of more than one square threatened by the same opponent in the same round doesn’t count as more than one opportunity for that opponent.

Wow, Ok.
One attack it is for Vanin. The first one is the one usable.So 11 damage to Spartacus.
The doors to the starting areas slam shut with a load boom just before Logan fired his crossbow.
Vanin is up.
Vanin attempts to stabilize and fails, he takes damage. Roll=46
Multiplying Damage
Sometimes you multiply damage by some factor, such as on a critical hit. Roll the damage (with all modifiers) multiple times and total the results. Note: When you multiply damage more than once, each multiplier works off the original, unmultiplied damage.
Damage Rolls (1d8+6=12, 1d8+6=8)
Seems Vanin is still up on his feet at 4 hit points... for the moment >:)
Looks like he should be getting a normal turn now that the damage hasn't dropped him.
Good call, Greer.
Vanin is up! Vanin's turn.
Vanin swings his chain at Spartacus in a desperate attempt to drop the mounted fighter.
I thought I did. I took the first hit from Vanin and applied it to Spartacus, who has updated his profile to show the damage sustained thus far. Was there something else I needed to address? Vanin's last 12 hasn't been figured in but he should have 6 hp left I would say.

I'm a bit lost now, whose turn is it?
Then Spartacus falls unconscious. I guess he needs to roll to see if he stays mounted.
Nilgaar is up, after we determine if Spartacus is still mounted.
Spartacus has a 75% chance to stay in the saddle.
Nilgar quickly reloads and aims at a portion of Vanin that seems to be less blocked by Spartacus and his horse (square D-10). (This prevents any penalties for firing into a melee since that square is 10 feet away from Vanin's opponent.)
"Come on, baby... hit this time."
CLICK!
"Dammit!"
Nilgaar is disgusted with his crossbow and starts going through the motions of getting to his feet and stowing the worthless item. (Stands next round on his turn)
To his teammates near him:
To team mates:
"Yer, I'm for it. Des slings an arrows don work, out-rage-us fortune!"
Heinrich is up.
"All right, I've had enough of this ranged combat."
"Come on! Let us begin the real combat!"
+4 to AC, +2 to reflex saves. They cost two squares to move through a space containing a low wall. A DC 20 Tumble check will allow you to move normally over them (DC 25 to charge over them).
So you need to adjust your movement by -5'.
