"Time to die, blasphemous scum", Janosz growls. He steps into the theatre and lets fly.
5' step to P10. I'm using Mayshot, Rapid Shot and, should it matter, Clustered Shots. I start with the Lecturer; if he goes down, I continue with Student 6, then Student 3.
Attack 1: 12+19+4(favoured enemy)=AC 35, damage 2d8+6+8(favoured enemy)=23 + 5 fire + 4 electricity x2 (Hated Enemy special ability)=46 + 10 fire + 8 electricity. I have scratched an Action Point.
Attack 2: 11+19+4=AC 34, damage 1d8+3+4=11+4 fire + 2 electricity.
Attack 3: 10+14+4=AC 28, damage 1d8+3+4=12+2 fire + 4 electricity.
Attack 4: 13+9+4=AC 26, damage 1d8+3+4=10+5 fire + 4 electricity.
| Aubrey the Demented/Malformed |
Your electricity and fire damage is not increased by Hated Enemy. Anything where you have to roll dice to get additional damage is never increased like that, in the same way that sneak attack damage wouldn't be either.

There are howls and groans as Rodergo's spell takes effect. Then Janosz steps in with his arrows. He fires at the lecturer, but although the necromancer doesn't seem to cast a spell Janosz's arrows shatter against some sort of invisible barrier.
S6: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 - 2 = 9 v Janosz's Touch AC. That's a miss, so direction of miss is 1d8 ⇒ 2
The students and the lecturer duck down instinctively (they now have cover, except the lecturer who has total cover) and those that can see begin spreading out. One lobs a small object at Janosz which falls short and misses him but explodes, filling the air with thick caustic smoke.
Janosz, DC 17 Fort save or you are Nauseated for 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 rounds. Also, the smoke (in green) is opaque - you cannot see through it.

OK. Two things - first, is the barrier something that could be affected by my Clustered Shots feat? Second - if not, could I have changed target once it became apparent that the lecturer is behind an impregnable barrier?
Fort save 8+12=20, so the cloud has no effect.
| Gelb |
Upon observing Janosz's impotent shots fail, Gelb pushes through the fog into the lecture hall and unleashes his wand against the bomber. ZIIIPPP!!!
Fort save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18.
Move: move to P14.
Standard: activate wand of magic missiles (9th) to target Student 6.
Damage: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 3, 4) + 5 = 19.

Your clustered shots actually partly penetrated, so it's moot. Anyway, it would require too much retconning since it was Student 6 who attacked you subsequently and he was your next target.
The student squeals as the magic missiles home in on him unerringly.

One student leaps nibly over the seats as he heads for Gelb, throwing a punch as he arrives. The other ducks down and drinks a potion. The lecturer utters some muffled words of command and the golem begins lumbering into battle. So does the one on the slab, its arm hanging off stapled tendons and swinging like a pendulum as it heaves itself upright.

If he cannot see the little beast, he will manifest Steadfast Perception (knowing that the little man is probably using magic to hide).

Rod.
| Aubrey the Demented/Malformed |
A student blinks away the effects of Rodergo's first spell. He catches sight of the priest and aims his spell before retreating behind the slab for cover.
S1 casts Web. It's on the map, shaded a sort of blue-y colour. It overlaps the smoke (which will dissipate very soon but is still there now) and that's the darker blue where they both coexist. Characters caught in the web are a slightly washed-out pink-y colour.
For ease, as it's a fairly complicated spell, here's the full text. The spell DC is 16.
School conjuration (creation); Level sorcerer/wizard 2
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (spider web)
Range medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Effect webs in a 20-ft.-radius spread
Duration 10 min./level (D)
Saving Throw Reflex negates; see text; Spell Resistance no
Web creates a many-layered mass of strong, sticky strands. These strands trap those caught in them. The strands are similar to spiderwebs but far larger and tougher. These masses must be anchored to two or more solid and diametrically opposed points or else the web collapses upon itself and disappears. Creatures caught within a web become grappled by the sticky fibers. Attacking a creature in a web doesn't cause you to become grappled.
Anyone in the effect's area when the spell is cast must make a Reflex save. If this save succeeds, the creature is inside the web but is otherwise unaffected. If the save fails, the creature gains the grappled condition, but can break free by making a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check as a standard action against the DC of this spell. The entire area of the web is considered difficult terrain. Anyone moving through the webs must make a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check as part of their move action, with a DC equal to the spell's DC. Creatures that fail lose their movement and become grappled in the first square of webbing that they enter.
If you have at least 5 feet of web between you and an opponent, it provides cover. If you have at least 20 feet of web between you, it provides total cover.
The strands of a web spell are flammable. A flaming weapon can slash them away as easily as a hand brushes away cobwebs. Any fire can set the webs alight and burn away one 5-foot square in 1 round. All creatures within flaming webs take 2d4 points of fire damage from the flames.
Web can be made permanent with a permanency spell. A permanent web that is damaged (but not destroyed) regrows in 10 minutes.

Janosz dodges the student's spell with ease while stepping through the blinding smoke. Spotting new targets, he fires off another cloud of arrows.
First of all - Reflex save 6+17=23 versus the Web. I then take a 5' step to Q12 before opening up on Student 6. CMB roll versus the Web if needed (I'd argue no, as I'm just leaving it) 12+13=25. New Fort save versus the gas cloud 11+12=23. If Student 6 falls, I keep firing on Student 7 and then Student 8. I'm using Manyshot, Rapid Shot and, should it matter, Clustered Shots.
Attack 1: 9+19+4(favoured enemy)+1(PBS)=AC 32, damage 2d8+6+8(favoured enemy)+2(PBS)=24 + 10 fire + 9 electricity.
Attack 2: 8+19+4+1=AC 32, damage 1d8+3+4+1=10+3 fire + 3 electricity.
Attack 3: 19!+14+4+1=AC 38, confirm roll 9+14+4+1=AC 28, damage 1d8+3+4+1=13x3=39+2 fire + 4 electricity.
Attack 4: 8+9+4+1=AC 22, damage 1d8+3+4+1=11+1 fire + 6 electricity.
Student 6, then Gelb.

Gelb.
| Gelb |
The changeling easily blocks the attack from the student with his sword before the elf and archer fell him. His death throes spent clutching his throat where an arrow continued to burn its way through.
"Appreciate the assist," he smirks before placing one foot on the smoking corpse and leaning forward to unleash his wand on the sole remaining student on this side of the lecture.
Standard: activate wand of magic missiles (9th) to target Student 8.
Damage: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (4, 1, 3, 2, 3) + 5 = 18.
Move: nil.
Just curious, but are there any movement penalties going down the steps in the center or on the terraces with the desks?
Student 5
| Aubrey the Demented/Malformed |
The student lobs another bomb at Janosz before joining some of his fellows behind the slab. The throw is wide but still catches three of the adventurers in its radius and filling the area with toxic smoke. The golems plough on regardless, crashing through the seats and plunging into the smoke to flail at the targets inside.
1d20 + 7 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 1 + 1 + 1 - 2 = 16 v Janosz's touch AC. That's another miss, so it falls 1d8 ⇒ 6 which is basically where Gelb is. That's 3 damage to Runzyl, Janosz and Gelb and another stinking cloud. DC 17 Fort save or be nauseated, plus impeded vision.
Flesh golem 1-arm attacks Janosz while flesh golem 2-arm attacks Runzyl.
1-arm: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24 to hit, damage 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 3) + 5 = 15
2-arm: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25 to hit, damage 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (5, 5) + 5 = 15
