DM Harpwizard |
Tirion you are up.
Round 2
• Bofus flies, using the trees to cover, and close toward the giants to -C -7.
• Mantooth attacks the hobgoblin in front of himself and takes it down in two quick swings.
• Tirion (unresolved)
• Red (unresolved)
• Poppy (unresolved)
• Thordak (unresolved)
• Giants (unresolved)
• Hobgoblins (unresolved)
Tirion Jörðhár |
I am still confused as to where we are going. I thought that Red and Thordak were flying on Lulu while Bofus and I were going to use fly spells to get us all out to the giants.
My actions will be very different if we are going to fight our way through a herd of bladebearers versus flying behind them to take out the giants.
With the hobgoblins and giants spread out that wide, my spells are pretty ineffective, at most I can only catch 1-3 hobgoblins. On the other hand, the Brindol guards, and Thordak, should be pummeling the giants with arrows from this distance.
Rebel Red |
I am averse to leaving party members stranded out the front of a combat and leaving them out there solo - especially when they outrun the rest of the army they are supposed to be attached to - it was a bit Leeroy Jenkins but hey, I'm still inside the wall. We can always pick up and move.
Bofus Beerswizzler |
I think our illustrious DM might have confused "Paladin" with "1st Edition Cavalier" :-)
Mantooth Longbrow |
Sorry to act like a cavalier, guys. I was not reading the plan carefully enough. Here are some revised actions.
Round 2
Mantooth with withdraw back inside the wall and let the Brindol guards fire their ranged weapons at any hobgoblins entering behind him.
"Watch out, men, here come the hobgoblins!"
Turning to Thordak, he says, "Wait for me, Dwarf! Do you have any room on that hippogriff for a guest such as myself? We need to get to those giants and fast!"
Tirion Jörðhár |
If Mantooth and Thordak are riding Lulu, then I will cast another Fly on Red instead of Haste. Burning through my level 3 spells, but I can always use a level 4 slot if I need more Haste.
At present we should have:
Bofus - fly
Tirion - Fly
Red - Fly
Mantooth/Thordak - hippogriff
DM Harpwizard |
Tirion Jörðhár |
We should be able to double move, not sure about flying charges and whether the trees would hinder a charge.
Round 1
Red flies to G/-17, if a charge is allowed, then charge to G/-16 and attack the hill giant.
Bofus flies to D/-18 to get flanking on the giant. Once again not sure if a charge is allowed while flying, and whether the trees are tall enough to hinder a charge.
Lulu/Thordak & Mantooth - fly behind the giant and attack from F/-19.
Tirion will remain behind the wall at present, but high enough to see the others. Once I can see them, I will cast Haste using the Rod of Reach. This should get Mantooth, Thordak, Red, Bofus and Lulu in its area of effect. The Rod of Reach should extend the range to 150', well more than needed.
I would prefer hitting one of the end giants, but with our movement, we can all reach this one in a single round, and possibly with charges. Also, this way, you are all close together to get within the radius of my haste spell.
Bofus Beerswizzler |
I had declared a move already--but I'm OK with this plan if DMHW would allow the retcon.
Hilll Giant |

DM Harpwizard |
Round 2
• Bofus flies, using the trees to cover, and lands by the giant at D-18. (I am ok with the retcon. I am just eager to see this battle progress.)
• Mantooth retreats from the wall and mounts Lulu with the Dwarf's permission.
• Tirion waits behind the wall for the opportunity to cast haste upon his companions (delay).
• Red flies up over the wall to G-17 and charges the giant. (I see no reason you cannot charge with a fly spell. You may attack.)
• Poppy flies up and accompanies red.
• Thordak mounts Lulu and leads his hippogriff over the wall to land behind the giants.
• Tirion casts haste on his companions with his Rod of Reach.
• Giants throw rocks at the wall, doing more damage to it. Meanwhile the one who is attacked returns the favor trying to attack Red, but misses.

Round 2
<br><br>• Bofus flies, using the trees to cover, and lands by the giant at D-18. (I am ok with the retcon. I am just eager to see this battle progress.)
I had no intention of landing. 10' up should keep me out of reach of the hobbies but still able to stab the giants in the face.
