Tirnel messages Quinray-Don't forget to message us when you are in position...

Sorry DM Darkvision hoping rules were better for Quinray. I believe Quinray should sneak attack from anywhere, but. I will stealth forward...

Message everyone what I am doing.

Since Quinray knows the terrain already, he should have a bonus. Right?
stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18

I am in position

Ibram will cast Prot. from Evil on himself right before battle

Kentaur will cast Prot. from Evil on himself right before battle
and Bull's Strength on Ibram.

perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17

Quinray's luck holds and he gets into position and lets his arrows fly, his first arrow takes the ogre in the shoulder the second misses. Rest of the party is up.

Tirnel is a little stunned as he sees Quinray fire before the party is quite in position. The best laid plans...

Desna with us!

He fires an arrow at the ogre.

bow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 131d8 ⇒ 8

Kieran looks quickly at Tirnel in surprise as the elf bellows out a war cry. Guess he really is committed to gaining the ogre's attention!

He steps into the clearing and fires his bow as well.

The ogre drops, filled with arrows and bolts!

Tirnel smiles at the death of the ogre. One down...

Well done everyone. Quinray, move up to the entrance and check for traps; you will lead us in. We are on our way to join you.

He looks at the rest of the party-Come on, let's go get justice for the farmers.; and advances towards the cave entrance.

Kieran watches the King to make sure he moves forward with Tirnel. Once he sees the King moving Kieran advances in front of the group and heads towards Quinray and the tunnel entrance.

I don't want to question Desna's gift, but that was a bit too easy. Probably means real trouble ahead.

Oh no trolls are too tough! Ogres die too easily, not enough sport! Make up your mind Kieran! You guys did well with your rolls, don't expect that will happen every time.

** spoiler omitted **

Quinray: You only need to roll once for perception, I will add 1/2 rogue levels for trap detection. Stealth is only going to help if you move ahead of everyone on your own, if the guys with all the armor are right up next to you it doesn't really matter much.

Group: Is everyone moving forward into the Cave of Death together or is Quinray up ahead by himself.

The plan was for Quinray to scout the entrance as the rest of the party moves up to join him. Once we see what's about in the entrance area I'll probably ask Quinray to go ahead of the party, using stealth, and let us know what he sees via message. See if we can't set up some more well rolled ambushes.

Kieran's mind is always made up; it's like a bed ready to sleep in! Kieran looks forward to fighting Trolgers; the perfectly balanced challenge!

Quinray stealthed forward. It is what it is. Hopefully not ogre bait. What does Quinray notice so he can message back.

Quinray stealths forward into the Cave of Death and enters a cavern about 30' across with a crude set of stairs leading down on the far side. At the bottom of the stairs, a wide hall leads forward with a set of crude double doors at the end. There is also one door to the left and one on the right of the hallway. The entire area generally smells bad.

There are also torches in sconces spaced to provide dim light throughout the cave complex.

Assuming Quinray tells Tirnel of his findings the rest of the party moves down to a position in front of the double doors.

Tirnel will give the room a good survey with ~detect magic~ and then-Check the double doors for traps and open them up if you please Quinray.

Quinray check double doors for traps perception: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32

No traps found.

Call eveyone up and open double doors.

The doors creak a bit upon opening and six sets of ogre eyes look over to see who is entering the room. Room is a rough 30' x 30' with a 20' ceiling. There are sleeping mats and crude table and chairs.

Ibram and Kentaur's ogre is looking severely wounded as is Kieran's ogre and Quinray's ogre. There attacks against the party are feeble, surely victory is near at hand.

Party action, there are now 6 ogres in total, 3 in front (all badly wounded) and 3 behind (no wounds).

Full confession and my bad, it just hit me that I don't have point blank master until level 5 so I should have switched to my falchion or suffered some AOO the last few rounds. Feel free to roll a few extra ogre attacks on me and maybe add an extra ogre to the fray as I would not have been getting 2 attacks with my falchion or doing as much damage per attack. :(
