Tengu @400 feet

Folium: your choice if you see this as something mean

Korug shouts as loud as he can at the approaching tengu, "Bring it on, you do not scare us!"

Zobmaggle looks around, and seeing no foe at hand, drinks another formulae. He expands, and grows to twice the hight.

"Zobmaggle not scared either! Stupid birds be scared!"

In a softer voice he says, "Shoot birds on side. Zobmaggle throw bomb in middle, hit many."

Zob will wait to throw until they get within 40

Drawing a bead on one of the 'outside' tengu, Kivuli looses a shot.
Waiting til they get into range at 80'

Light X Bow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

The tengu rush towards the barricade and are now some two hundred feet away. They ride in a line abreast formation, with 5 feet between each horse total width is therefore 85 feet

Round 6
Everyone has 7 defense points
Kivuli - readies to shoot @80 feet: to hit 12 + damage 6
Korug
Folium
Zob - readies to throw @40 feet, please roll

Tengu @200 feet

Folium: you can also take your round 5 shot @400 feet if you want

I consider that 'something mean' and the spell cast.

"So, the next ones join this party!"

Folium welcomes the tengus with more arrows.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 - 2 = 18
Damage 1 : 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 6) + 4 = 14

Attack 2: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 5 - 2 = 12
Damage 2: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 5) + 4 = 12

Switch to next closest one if first drops. 1 range increment I think.

Bomb: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (7) + 0 = 7
Target Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 - (3 Splash Damage)

Korug waits for them to close before loosing an arrow at a rider near the edge of the group.

Waiting til they are at 100'
Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Zobmaggle finds the tiny bombs hard to weild with his oversided hands.

Miss direction: 1d8 ⇒ 5

(since he threw it two range increments away, it should land 2 squares away from the target.)

Folium misses with his arrows, but Korug shows that he has paid attention to the shooting lessons. One tengu goes down! Kivuli also shoots, but he was not taking any shooting lessons so he misses...

Folium, first arrow was at 2 range increments, second at 1

Zobmaggle waits until the tengu are close by and lobs a bomb, but unfortunately it scatters too far!

The tengu come closer and again team dragon manage to pick one of, now only four remain. Two of the tengu stay mounted, one of which is screaming at the top of its lungs in its avian language. They both throw a flask at the barricade. It explodes in a blast and the barricade starts to burn! The other tengu dismount at the base of the barricade, staying clear of the burning area. Team turtle take advantage of the situation and poke their spears to holes in the barricade, killing a tengu!

Ranged touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Ranged touch: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Caught off guard by the fire, Kivuli's shot goes wide. crossbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

"Well, as long as it doesn't spread to the houses... Folium mutters. He continues the barrage, rapidly again shooting twice.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
Damage 1: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 1) + 4 = 10

Attack 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Damage 2: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 3) + 4 = 11

"Getting a little hot up here, not good." As the flames start to spread up the wall, Korug jumps down and draws his bardiche and prepares for them to enter the village.

Can we ask/order one of the villager groups can start a fire-line brigade to douse the flames?

The towering goblin steps to the side and reaches over the barricade with axe and fang.

Greataxe 2H: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage: 3d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 3, 6) + 9 = 23
Bite (secondary, full atatack): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1) + 3 = 8

There's a horrible squelching sound-- and then silence.

Fire damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5

Kivulu shouts out to team turtle that they need to start a fire-line brigade while the fire burns along happily. The last remaining tengu throws another flask at the barricade...

Ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Zobmaggle begins climbing over the wall to face the kenky before he can cause any other mischief.

Climb: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14

Zobmaggle fails to climb over the wall with his giant size, having difficulty finding proper handholds without breaking down the barricade.

Korug stands at the read in case they breach the wall.

Ready attack if the tengu gets through

Power Attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 - 1 = 22
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 3 = 12

If I need to oversee the fire line, I will do that. otherwise, I will try to get on top of the wall.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 =2' high jump (I'm short and need all the help I can get)
climb: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19 to climb the rest of the way

Kivuli climbs up to the top of the wall while Korug waits until the barricade has burned through.

Folium!

"Yùnxíng nǐ de jī" Folium shouts at the last tengu, strengthening his words with again two arrows.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Damage 1: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 3) + 4 = 10

Attack 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Damage 2: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 4) + 4 = 12

Folium fires two arrows, that both fly wide! The villagers have some issues with finding enough buckets and other tools to carry the water in...

The tengu fires another flask at the barricade. The burning area of the barricade seems to be on the verge of collapsing.

Fire damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Bucket Chain: 1d20 ⇒ 2
Flask: 1d20 ⇒ 15
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Frustrated in his attepts to climb the flimsy baracade. Zobmaggle instead stands and returns the favor with a bomb of his own.

Bomb: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Target Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 - (3 Splash Damage) DC 13

Korug continues to wait for the tengus to break through.

Ready attack: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 - 1 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 3 = 13

"Don't wiggle, just die already."

Two more arrows fly at the tengu.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage 1: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 = 10

Attack 2: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Damage 2: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 3) + 4 = 10

Folium puts two arrows through the tengu, while the villagers quench the fire. Nevertheless the barricade has taken a lot of damage...

In the distance you still see a lot of tengu milling about on their horses, just out of bowshot

Anything you want to do before they start their next attack? Currently we are in round 9, please post actions for several rounds, making it obvious what you want to do first

Kivuli moves to the rooftop west of the barricade. As soon as the tengu come within 80', Kivuli will shoot attempting to focus fire on whichever one Folium is attacking.

Round 1Crossbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Round 2Crossbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
confirm crit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10
Crossbow: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Round 3Crossbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Crossbow: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Other actions?

The gravity bow is on until round 13.

Folium is watching the tengus, shooting single arrows at them until they come close, then leashening a barrage.

For enemies further than 110', single shots, nearer rapid shot for two attacks. On round 14, try recast gravity bow.

Assuming the barrier falls soon, Korug will attack the tengu at the gate, then fire his bow at the ones in the distance when they are in range.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 7 - 1 = 20
Damage: 1d20 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 3 = 10
Confirm: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (3) + 7 - 1 = 9
Crit Damage: 1d10 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 3 = 16

Attack 2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

After some seconds pass two other tengu seem to have found their courage and start another ride towards the barricade.

Folium attack round 11: 1d20 + 7 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 4 = 12
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 2) + 4 = 12

Folium attack round 12: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 2 = 14
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 3) + 4 = 12

Folium attacks round 13: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 5) + 4 = 10

Folium attacks round 13: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 6) + 4 = 15

Before they can reach the barricade Folium and Kivuli kill one of the tengu. The last bird quickly dismounts and kicks at the barricade, which causes the already severely damaged barricade to fall down! Korum was ready for that and he slashes at the tengu, who is bleeding severely from his wound...

Zobmaggle to finish him?

Zobmaggle tears into the wounded foe...

Greataxe 2H: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Damage: 3d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 5, 4) + 9 = 24
Bite (secondary, full atatack): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 5) + 3 = 14

And Zobmaggle kills the last tengu with his bite!

In the aftermath of the onslaught, the village square stands nearly deserted, most of the villagers’ resolve having broken sometime during the siege. Many have retreated to their homes, though from the peripheries of the village still come the sounds of battle, villagers here and there fighting off the few scattered bandits that made it through the barricades. The air is hazy with smoke and it is hard to tell where to go to next in order to aid the farmers. A bloodthirtsy screech coming from the north is enough to signify the most dangerous threat yet, however.

In the distance you see a tengu seated on a weird kind of bird. It spurs the bird on and moves towards you at a ground-breaking pace. Just trailing behind him another tengu on horseback tries to keep up the same speed.

Enemy at 200 feet distance

"This one looks different, he must be the one in charge" Korug fires an arrow at the rider, more out of anger than actually expecting to hit it.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 3 - 2 = 4
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

In case you still want mutiple actions.. After firing the arrow, he tosses his bow to the side and draws his bardiche. Korug stands ready, the muscles on his neck strained in preparation as his tattoos begin to glow white hot.

Enter rage, ready attack if charged, weapon has brace feature (first time I've had the opportunity to use that in PF)

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Damage: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 so 24 because of brace

One action is enough, they will be on you in the next round

Zobmaggle prowls back and forth at the broken barrier, waiting for the foe.

He fiddles with the wands of healing, trying to keep the foe from seeing it.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Kivuli takes a shot at the giant bird used as a mount as the Tengu close in.
crossbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
crossbow: 1d6 ⇒ 1

He then draws his weapon and prepares to engage in close combat.

Folium tries to refresh his spell.

Spell fail roll 15%: 1d100 ⇒ 48

And the spell works, his arrows are still heavy.

Some more arrows fly at the approaching tengu while Zobmaggle cures his wounds and Folium refreshes his spell.

Seeing two targets before him the bird-riding Tengu points at the bigger one (Zob) and yells "That one is mine! I challenge the goblin!"

His companion urges his horse towards Korug, only to find a braced bardiche in front of him! The tengu can not avoid the weapon and slowly slides down the pointy end of the weapon...

The last tengu hits Zobmaggle with a fierce slash of his sword. Luckily for Zob the mount just barely misses him...

Tengu Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 4 + 2 = 29
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 4 = 11

Axebeak Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 7 + 2 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Do I get an AoO on the BBEG?

Of course, sorry!

As the leader races by on his massive bird, Korug quickly pulls his weapon from the bloody corpse of the other rider and slashes at him with a grunt.

AoO: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 8 - 2 = 24
Damage: 1d10 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 9 + 3 = 13

He watches as the rider cuts deeply into Zob. He takes a step back, and again swings at the tengu.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 2 = 15
Damage: 1d10 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 3 = 17

does the Tengu have reach? Zob does when enlarged, so he probably gets an AoO before the tengu can close with him.

Roaring in defiance, Zobmaggle tears into the rider...
Greataxe 2H: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24
Damage: 3d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 6, 1) + 9 = 21
Bite (secondary, full atatack): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 5) + 3 = 14

Zob: you can also have your AoO, I indeed forgot that (and yes, it matters, he is not dead yet)

Previously....

as the overgrown chicken and rider approached Zobmaggle, his huge arms swung his mighty axe overhead before they could reach him.

Greataxe 2H: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Damage: 3d6 + 9 ⇒ (3, 4, 4) + 9 = 20

Folium runs to the other end of the roof to get better aim on the lead tengu, releasing an arrow as soon as the sight is clear.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Damage: 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 4) + 5 = 13

Kivuli races along the roof top and gently drops down to the side of the fearsome raider.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 <---To avoid AoO

Trying to provide flank for Korug

Kivuli lightly lands to the side of the tengu boss and its bird while Zobmaggle slashes wildly with his axe, hitting both birds with one gigantic slice! The tengu looks like he is about to hit the dirt, but he spats out "Bah! to afraid to take me in single combat?" before he slashes again at Zob. The katana hits and the giant goblin goes down!

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 4 = 9

The bird snaps at Kivuli and misses the stealthy wayang

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Damage: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
