DC10[untrained]: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 Well, at least I know that potential fumble is out of the way.
Thakamaka assumes, albeit incorrectly, that he will get to wet his sword on another of his hated enemies and wait's for them to come barreling down on him by taking a readying stance and whacking his sword on his wooden shield.
"Nips and bites, the doggies will do, but Goblin blades cut them all neatly in two's. Bring your claws all clickty clak. I'll show you my fist and give you whack."
DM Question:
For bonuses vrs Goblin Dogs, I know it's safe to assume Ranger Favored enemy will be effective, as they are animals, as well as assuming my trait and feat, as they the both state horse/dog and horselike/doglike creatures, which should cover goblin dogs.
I was figuring that Gorge would NOT cover a goblin dog. As they aren't normally considered an enemy of goblins. So I wasn't planning on using that "bane" bonus damage or to hit bonus, unless it's something you know more about.
Though Thak, will be depressed to know it isn't a German Shepard or something cooler to skewer.
The Bestiary indicates that they are "a species of rodent". It also mentions that the only reason they are called dogs, is because goblins could not come up with something more creative to call them.
The feat Dig Killer, Horse Hunter lists examples which would still be the same 'species' as canines and equines.
The trait, Dog-Sniff Hate, specifically mentions that it works on canines (or even canine-type relatives).
Goblin dogs are rodents, so although in appearance they may be similar they are of a different species. I believe only your favored enemy will be usefull against them.
The scraping of claws against the wooden ship deck are heard, and out of the smoke appear two goblin dogs which run down the ganplank, one of which jumps off near the end.
Those in front of the ship also see a dog run around the corner, about to enter the area of smoke.
They make no attacks as they used double moves to get where they are.
Joboo only:
You see Vorka climb a ladder to the second story. A large toad jumps up to accompany her. You notice that flames seem to emanate from one of her hands but did not seem to scortch the ladder when she climbed it.
Can someone please let me know if they can still login to MapTools. I restarted my router a day ago and ever since I have not seen anyone logged into the server.

Hey DM Kor, Im unable to connect to the server. I thought it was just my hurting satellite connection yesterday but today Im also getting the same 'Cant connect to Kors campaign: time out error' message.

Joboo could hardly believe that he wasnt actually able to see Vorka and was praying fervently to the Ravaging Hunter that she hadnt seen him yet as he continued to make his way around the boat.
Stealth - 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (16) + 16 = 32
...hehehe...mesa gonna kill Vorka!...and then mesa gonna eat her!...hohoho...
Move action: Taunt the animal into attacking me not Mogmurch via Wild Empathy by making hissing sounds, sticking out my tongue, and stamping my feet etc.

post roll edit: Darn dice! why couldn't you roll a natural 20 on the attack roll! You vex me board dice, you vex me!
In a dumb move for a Goblin, Thakamaka tries to get in the 'dogs' faces so they wont bite his fire loving friend Mormurch.
Hrungee advances up by Thakmaka, who was already standing at the bottom of the gangplank.
Two rat dogs burst through the smoke fill area on the deck above, while another fierce-looking, furry canine prepares to descend the gang plank.
Joobo continues to slink around the side of the ship, peering upwards as if something has caught his attention.
Thakmaka makes a swing with his goblin cleaver at one of the goblin dogs but misses, while making strange noises which seem to annoy the other rat dog.
Mogmurch strides forward and tosses a vial of acid that shatters behind the dogs, burning their legs.
I believe this takes Thakmaka down, but in the interest of fun, I will suggest that Mogmurch should use his action which he first posted. Originally he posted using the fire amulet, which would have killed the 2 goblin dogs as it he rolled 10 damage, the same number of hit points they have.
Round revision:
Mogmurch hesistates while he considers his options, but alas chooses to invoke the command word of his amulet and fries the goblin dogs to a crisp, amoungst horrible squeals of pain.
Hrungee, your attack target was killed, so I am going to say that you delayed your action however you have now been seriously scorched.
The dog runs down the ramp and bites a large chunk out of Thakmaka's leg nearly tripping him in the process.
I would have rather used my first action first, but couldn't get the damn template for the 15' cone to work right in maptools unless I was standing in Hrungee's spot. So that's fine with me!
Group 1: Hrungee (action completed)
Group 2: Vorka et al
Group 3: Joboo, Thakmaka, Mogmurch
On the second story you see Vorka appear beside the ship's cabin. She cackles, "I do like my meat a little crispy, lets start with the prettiest."
Vorka tosses a small ball of flame at Hrungee.
Produce flame ranged touch attack (-4 for firing into melee, +1 for higher ground)1d20 +1

Thakmaka now has the attention of all the four-legged adversaries.
They attack in this order:

Damage: 1d6 +3
Goblin Dog #2: 1d20 +2
Damage: 1d6 +3

Actually, with my AC 23 all those attacks missed! (Shield is active.)
I'm on my backup computer right now. My main computer has been hit with a nasty virus. I have many different levels of protection, plus I am very knowledgable on how to not get a virus, even accidentally. Despite all this, I got hit with a virus. I don't even use e-mail on that computer only go to about 8 different sites. I have to assume at this time that maptools is somehow responsible.
Well it took me a few hours but I was able to isolate the virus. No thanks to AVG *curses* Bedtime now, I will get us updated tomorrow. I am too nervous about running MapTools right now. I will install it on my "throw-away" computer so I don't have to worry about it.
Don't forget that each of you were given a CLW potion by Slorb. Also, don't forget about your 2 CMW potions that were found in the spider's lair.
Right you are Thakmaka. The dogs all narrowly missed you.
Sorry for the continued delays. Its been a busy weekend for me and the virus did not help things. I will have time later tonight to get the game continuing again.
Hrungee: Stood his ground, waiting to swing his mace at anything that approached.
Goblin Dogs: Ran down the gangplank ending their turn right in front of Thakmaka and Mogmurch.
Dog (Cuddles): Advanced forward to the edge of the first deck.
Joboo: Stealthed around the side of the ship where he saw Vorka and a large Toad.
Thakmaka: Sliced Gorge through the air, missing the goblin dog in front of him. He let out a few hisses and managed to gain the attention of the second goblin dog.
Mogmurch: Stepped forward and unleashed the power of the amulet against the goblin dogs, burning them to a crisp.
------------------
Round 2 Summary
Vorka: Appears on the second deck and threw a small ball of fire down at Hrungee, greatly injuring him.
Dog (Cuddles): Ran down the ramp and narrowly missed hitting Thakmaka with a bite, having been deflected by his shield.
Hrungee: Delayed his action and then moved towards the fence after being hit with a small fire ball.
Joboo: Easily climbed the side of the ship and made it onto the first deck without making a sound.
Thakmaka: (Action Pending) Mogmurch: (Action Pending)
I have now restarted it, just in case. I have logged in from another computer, so all should be good now. Also, just make sure you are trying to connect to "Kors Goblins" (without an apostrophe).
Cuts a large gash across its abdomen, spurthing forth a gush of blood and possibly some organs, greatly angering the dog. Yes, the great and powerful Cuddles is still alive!
Total damage caused: 18
Just waiting on Mogmurch to post his round 2 action.
Mogmurch reaches inside his boot pouch and pulls forth a small clay jar and pulls the stopper. Inside he pulls out a handful of what appears to be excrement and begins stuffing down his gullet...the smells wafts over towards you...smells like excrement too.
Group 1: Vorka and minions
Group 2: Hrungee, Joboo, Thakmaka, Mogmurch
Horrifed at seeing her pets being ripped to pieces, and with the threat of her home being burnt, Vorka's demeanor changes from boisterous taunting to vile anger. "You must all die you filthy scum!"
Vorka launches a small fireball down at Thakmaka.
Produce flame ranged touch attack: (-4 for firing into melee, +1 for higher ground)1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18 Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
The fireball hits Thakmaka solidly in the chest, however Vorka is surprise to see that it did not scortch him nearly as much as she thought it would. (Thanks to the magic cape, Thakmaka only takes 2 fire damage).
Cuddles takes a chunk out of the ranger's leg and topples him. The dog itself seems most unsteady on its feet after this attack, it too almost collapses.
Hrungee drinks a healing potion. (Total damage healed is 7, due to my house healing rule).
The rest of Group 2 is up (Thakmaka, Joboo and Mogmurch).
Right now you are under the overhang of the second deck. I have placed a yellow square around you just to note that you are not yet on the second deck. Currently you have no line of sight on Vorka.
Init +5, Perc +11 // HP = 53/53 // AC:20, T:16, F:15 // F +3, R +12, W +2 // CMB +8 / CMD +23 // Speed 30'
Joboo had to really concentrate not to giggle with evil glee that so far he had escaped Vorka's attention and that he was going to get to plunge his dagger in her. He started creeping towards her.
Stealth - 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (6) + 16 = 22
as soon as he was close enough he stabbed the b1tch in the back.
You move to the ladder and climb stealthfully to the top of it. Moving with stealth is at half speed. I have also unhidden the map which shows the layout of each level a little better. Let me know if you plan to double move closer though on this round.
Sure, you can change your action. Where you have yourself placed right now though on the map would take a double move to have gotten there by stealth. If you just climbed the ladder with stealth then you would still have a standard action to throw, but the large toad behind him would give him cover (-4 to attack). Also, you do know that Vorka has a frog known as Lord Longtongue as a animal companion (she's a druid) so there is a good change the big toad is him.
Vorka: From the second deck she threw a small ball of fire down at Thakmaka.
Dog (Cuddles): Chomped on Thakmaka and nearly knocking him unconscious.
Hrungee: Gulped back a healing potion, restoring 7 hp.
Joboo: Stealthfully climbed the ladder to the second deck and threw a dagger at a giant toad (Lord Longtongue). The dagger hit the toad right in the head an burried itself deep. Lord Longtogtongue releases a large croak of pain.
Thakmaka: Backs up 5' and consumes a potion, restoring 9 hp.
Mogmurch: Pulls forth a foul smelling mutagen and consumes it, bolstering his agility.
Round 4
Group 1: Vorka, Lord Longtongue, Cuddles
Group 2: Hrungee, Joboo, Thakmaka, Mogmurch
Saddened that Cuddles misses his opponent, Vorka throws down another ball of fire at Thakmaka which seems to extinguish the flames which were emanating from her hand.
Produce flame ranged touch attack: (-4 for firing into melee, +1 for higher ground): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18 Fire Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Vorka hits Thakmaka squarely with the spell, although his magical cloak reduces the scortching he suffers.
Init +5, Perc +11 // HP = 53/53 // AC:20, T:16, F:15 // F +3, R +12, W +2 // CMB +8 / CMD +23 // Speed 30'
DM Kor:
Would Joboo's potion of Bulls Strength still be active? Not sure how long its been. If so it wouldve been +4 to damage total so far. Will continue as if its not active though.
Joboo kind of liked the slimy tongue wrapped around him but he didnt like being so close to the toad's mouth!
Escape Artist - 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
He wriggled free like a wet fish from its grasp.
Then pulled his second dagger from his rope belt and stabbed out with murderous intent.
Attack - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15
Damage - 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6+1 if the toad is bigger than me thanks to Goblin Bravado!
Sorry, I have been away from my computer and have been having a very busy weekend. Posting from phone so I have no idea where I am on the map.
Seeing Thakmaka shrug off the fire damage from the hag goblin Vorka, Mogmurch scurries up next to Thakmaka and shows Cuddles some much needed warmth...
"Thaknaka say he wants to see burn...Mogmurch burn! Incendio"
Reflex DC 13 for Half Damage ~ Fire Damage: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 2, 2) = 12 Re-use cooks off in 1d4 ⇒ 1
Cuddles becomes fully aflame, and soon the burning corpse of the dog on the ground becomes an aromatic barbeque for goblins.
Vorka will save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Vorka appears largely unfazed by the hex which Hrungee cast upon her. (-2 to AC for 1 round)
Joboo: Yes your bull strength potion is still active. I have adjusted the hp damage to the frog accordingly, and with the combined extra damage from the strength increase on all your attacks, you just killed it on your last attack!
The toad slumps to the deck as Joboo burries his dagger into its head again. A look of panic now appears on Vorka's face as she sees that all her pets have been defeated and all the goblins are still alive.
Vorka: From the second deck she threw another small ball of fire down at Thakmaka. The flames that had seemed to be alit in her hand now dissipated. Causing 6 fire damage, after adjusting for Fire Resistance Dog (Cuddles): Snaps at Thakmaka but misses completely.
Hrungee: Gazed at Vorka, giving her 'the evil eye'. Vorka seemed largely unfazed by the effect. Vorka made her save and has -2 to her AC for 1 round. Joboo: Escaped being entwined within Lord Longtongue's tongue, and struck back with another thrust of his dagger killing the toad.
Mogmurch: Called upon the power of the amulet and barbequed Cuddles to a crisp.
Thakmaka: Ran up the plank and headed to a ladder where he can access the second deck where Vorka is. I moved Thakmaka, as he has not posted his move in the last 24 hours. He has double moved and is under the second deck, so I have put a blue halo around him to reflect this on MapTools.
Round 5
Group 1: Vorka
Group 2: Hrungee, Joboo, Thakmaka, Mogmurch
