Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
What was the deal with the riverboat again? I seem to remember that Clayton was going to continue downriver (i.e. past Stralwald) and then come back for us, but I can't find a post that says that now. Is the boat actually still tied up at the fishing camp?

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
The boat was hired to take you down to Stralwald, but the captain wasn't going to stick around. Nobody asked about it, but he went upriver while you were scouting the bandit's camp.

Guess I shouldn't have dumped all my xp into improving Severin's combat capability.

Usually. Does this mean they're sneakier then Gabriele?

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
And how are you setting up watches during the night? It's just before dawn, who's awake?

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
I figure that it would be good to have watches set by both the swordsmen and halflings. I don't know how large each group is, but having one swordsman and maybe two halflings awake for each watch seems like a good idea. The halflings have a lot more territory to keep an eye on and can hopefully help keep each other awake and alert. Obviously each watch should be short enough that everyone gets a reasonable amount of sleep.
Since I know that Severin at least passed his Perception test, I would ideally want him awake near dawn since that when it seems the action will be taking place. But besides that wholly OOC consideration, I don't really have any strong preference for when Severin should be keeping watch.

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
Happy New Year indeed.
Funny coincidence - I've never seen Snowpiercer the movie, but I just watched the Netflix series. It's not bad at all, though that particular scene doesn't make an appearance.
@Haval
Does Gabriele have a shield with her? If not, Severin could loan her his.Last edited by rax; 2021-01-01 at 01:43 PM.

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
Oh, good. Severin will hang on to his shield then.
I was asking because I don't like the look of those swordsmen chasing the halflings, so I was considering whether we should split up. Gabriele helps take down the bandits fighting our swordsmen, Severin heads for the beach to try and keep the halflings from getting butchered.
I'm also considering whether we should steer matters towards a general retreat. We've killed several bandits and that (plus intel) was the plan. The longer we stay and fight, the more casualties we'll take.
On the other hand, if it's true that we've actually been tricked and counter-ambushed by a larger force, then we can probably count on close pursuit as Colten's lot try and finish us off. That's not an argument against running, but we probably need to try for a decently organized retreat to keep them off our backs.

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
Yeah, I think we're probably limited in what we can do here. I don't know what went wrong, but this is what we get for listening to the Bretonnian noble
We can split up. Gabriele ought to be able to manage another one and hopefully Rickon's still with us.
I assume that's Colten and his gun.

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
It could be Colten or maybe one of his lieutenants. He did say they have three guns - I assumed that also means they have at least three qualified shots.
As for what went wrong? Well, we know that the bandits managed to sneak up on us, but we don't know yet if they were fully focused on getting to the beach and just happened to run into our slingers or whether they'd detected the slingers and were trying to ambush us in turn.
We also can't really tell how bad the situation is. We've taken down the six bandits that attacked Severin and his two compadres. We've just run into another group and we've spotted some more chasing the halflings down to the beach. Since there's fighting further north as well, there's got to be a bunch there as well, but we really don't know if we're facing an overwhelming force or if we've actually started making a significant dent in the attackers as well. It could easily be that they're just not aware of their own losses yet.
With that said, the likely presence of Colten does raise the possibility that this isn't just one of his patrols that decided to take the bait. I believe Gabriele also estimated that there were about a dozen men to a patrol. That also makes it more likely that there's more than one patrol in action here.
@dojango
How many men did we actually bring with us? Twenty slingers and twenty swordsmen?

You can attack the bandits directly, so make your combat rolls!

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
It seems Severin isn't so scary up close.
@dojango
How many bandits is Severin facing and what sort of armour and weapons are they packing?

There's five of them left. They have swords and mail coats and hats.

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
Mail coats, eh? Sounds suspiciously like we're dealing with some of the tougher bandits this time. Colten's or Otto's veterans, maybe?

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
@dojango
So two of the five bandits are now coming for Severin. How many rounds does he have until they're in melee range if he stays put?
And what are the other three doing? Still moving in on the other halflings?

Re: Travels amongst the Border Princes (WFRP 2e) OOC
Severin slips back out of reach further down the bank, but the man yells "Blood for the blood god" and prepares to charge.
@Haval
Why is Gabriele spending a half action on Parrying Stance when she's got her shield? Parrying with a shield is a free action. You could be using Aim to get +10 to hit instead.

Whoops! Things just got ugly.
Spending an FP to re-roll the first attack. Saving an FP in case I need to re-roll the Dodge Blow.

Lucky number Severin!
Still, stuck in melee and now a bit short on FP as well. Let's see how Severin gets out of this one...
