sure
Round 2
Gundahar, Ser Manfred, Hengest, Ixiomar, Argus, Orcs

Also a will save
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Shot on Orc 1 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Rapid Shot on Orc 2 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

Taking careful aim at the wounded orc, Gundahar unleashes his crowbow bolt.

Crossbow = 1d20 ⇒ 15
Damage = 1d8 ⇒ 6

Sir Manfred uncouches his lance, rears back and thrusts it forward to finish off the orc he hit on the charge.
Lance attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 for a possible 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7 piercing damage.

Argus's arrow finds the eye socket of the wounded orc dropping him before he has a chance to react. His second arrow also strikes true on the second orc, as does Gundahar's.

The orc is struggling to stand after the arrows from Argus and Gundahar, Ser Manfred seizes the opportunity and delivers the killing blow.

Ixiomar casts grease on the ten feet of ground underneath the final orc, causing it to become slippery.

Dc 17 reflex save or the Orc falls prone

Reflex1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
the orc falls.
1d20 - 2 ⇒ (11) - 2 = 9
And is unable to get up

Reflex1d20+4

the orc falls.
1d20-2
And is unable to get up

The orc needs life alert. ;-)

Seeing the first two orcs fall Gundahar strides forward, casually reloading his crossbow.

Ixiomar draws his own crossbow and points it at the orc.

"Perhaps we should take this one alive and bring him back to headquarters"

Taking aim at the floundering orc, Gundahar asks, And how, may I ask, do you intend to safely transport a prisoner through hostile territory for 3 weeks?

out until Sunday probably due.to bro in law graduating. Please npc in meantime. Thanks!

If the last orc doesn't indicate surrender and the others don't act, Sir Manfred will ride him down.

The last orc is up in his lookout tower, floundering on the floor from the grease. He is supposed to be the lookout but was to busy watching the hippogriff.

Gundahar looks over to Sir Manfred, If you care to dispatch the remaining orc, we can wrap up this little excursion. We still have a long ride back.

Probably unwise to ride Tornado up the stairway of an orc built watchtower (though cool). So Sir Manfred will dismount (leaving horse and lance) and go up himself to dispatch the last orc (unless he surrenders first).

Sword Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15 for a possible 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11 cutting damage.

Does the orc surrender?

Ixiomar attends to the hippogriff, crossbow at the ready. It's still sleeping.

Gundahar continues to stand guard, crossbow in hand, while Ixiomar and Sir Manfred mop up the remnants of the assault.

I am holding my actions while watching the surroundingings.

Gah, the post eater has struck again!

Ser Manfred-The purple area is the grease spell, if you want to keep the rolls for an AoO you can. but if you want to attack him you'll need to make an acrobatics check.

It may just be anger from the grease spell but the orc does not seem to be in the surrendering mood. you can make a diplomacy/intimidate check to change his mind if you would like.

I'll keep the last roll for an AoO if warrented.
Sir Manfred will stop short of the Greased area. (Don't like those odds.) He deliberately looks down at the corpses in the yard, fixes the last orc with a steely glance, points his sword at him and grits out; "Drop. Your. Weapons."
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

How has the orc reacted to Sir Manfred's command?

The Orc looks at Ser Manfred and grins menacingly. "just try it puny human, I don't need help to destroy you!"

Sir Manfred nods.
"Dismiss the Grease, if you please Mister Voralius." He shouts over his shoulder.

Argus walks over, raises his bow to aim at the creatures heart, and says Not necessary to get your tabard dirty. I can take him from here if you want. Better yet I can put one through his leg or arm so that he is easier taken for questioning. Whichever you decide. Argus has an almost bored quality to his voice as he talks.

Sir Manfred glances over at Argus.
"He has elected not to surrender. Therefore, you may dispatch him at will Mister Pike."

Gundahar is maintaining his vigilence below.

Argus shrugs and says Last chance Orc. He will give the orc one last chance to surrender before he dispatches him. If he doesn't Argus will shoot him.

Shot if he doesn't surrender.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

The Orc laughs as he twits out of the way of your arrow.
Pathetic humans! Come closer and try again.

Argus smiles and says I think not. You see we...unlike you...aren't stupid.

With that he launches two more arrows at him.

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Ouch, nice rolls

those are very nice rolls, and both would have hit if he didn't have a +4 AC vs ranged attacks from being prone.

You may not be stupid, but you can't aim ether, ha!
the orc decides that he is better off on the ground and pulls himself off the side of the 20 ft tower.
Acrobatics to reduce the falling damage 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (3) - 2 = 1
And lands quite loudly on his face.
nonlethal falling damage 1d6 ⇒ 2
lethal falling damage 1d6 ⇒ 3

As the orc drops to the ground,Gundahar looses a bolt from his crossbow.

1d20 ⇒ 1

Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 6

Unfortunately, he forgets which end is the dangerous one.

Uncharacteristically swearing at the sudden debacle, Sir Manfred turns and lumbers down the rickety ladderway back to the ground and pursues the escapee.

If he catches him, Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 for a possible 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 cutting damage.
...Crit confirm? 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 for a possible extra 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 cutting damage.

Sadly your 20 ft of movement dosn't allow you to reach the orc
The orc laughs as he takes aim at gundahar
i'll show you how it's done
attack 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21
damage 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
The orc laughes as he drops his longbow and readys his greatax to attack ser manfred.

Argus laughs back and says Laugh now Orc. The end result will be the same. You will be dead and we will not.

1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Gundahar collapses, the arrow embedded in his stomach.

-2 hp

I shall never be killed by a puny human!

Sir Manfred pursues the orc grimly. Shall I reroll the attack?

IF the orc tries to play keepaway, using a lighter armor speed advantage, Sir Manfred will instead remount Tornado, grab up his lance and pursue him from horseback.

The orc does not try to run, we'll keep the attack (it did not confirm), but would you have attacked from around the corner, or would you have provoked to get a clean shot?

gah metal one! that almost hurt lets see how you like it
Attack 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
Damage 1d12 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Sir Manfred would have come all the way around the corner (and take the AoO) to make a clear and open attack.
Sir Manfred takes a tooth-rattling blow from the orc; and very fortunate that his armor and shield was there to absorb and deflect the attack.

AoO 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12
Damage 1d12 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

Keep in mind you have +4AC for this attack because he i attacking from around the corner

How tall is that wall in front of him?

The red wall? 15 ft

No the little black line between sir manfred and the orc.

Not sure what that was, should not have been there. to clarify there is no wall between the 2.
