Sessions/Shrouded Valley/4

Narrator: The delvers are assaulting the gates of the Shrouded Vale. In front of them are two massive stone gate houses and a long wall encircling the valley. The sky over the valley is strangely dark.
Narrator: Ogres and goblins are on the walls and gate houses, fighting against the delvers. Mrugnak, Ayake, and Connell have made it to the wall, while Richard is pinned down on the slope and Berkun is trading fire with the greenskins.
Narrator: Goblin sentries are falling back to the sides, racing towards distance towers to carry the alarm to them.
GM: Uhm. Any other questions?
Connell: I'm a bear.
Berkun: one question, are there modifiers for shooting in the darkness if one is standing on the walls?
Mrugnak: Eheh.
Richard: who's turn is it?
GM: It's start of the round.
Richard: ah
GM: Yes, there's darkness penalties once you're on the walls.
Berkun: how much penalty?
GM: Speaking of: -5 ambient light penalty if you're on the walls. 
Berkun: I see
Berkun: I'm ready
GM: Light sources reduce the penalty to -2 in their "bright" area, -4 in their "dim" area.
GM: It's very powerful magical darkness.
Mrugnak: Oop!
 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Berkun 
(on deck: [26] Connell) 
GM: Ayake's question?
** Richard cheers **

Berkun: move and attack the ogre grunt that fell from the wall
GM: He's kneeling.
Richard: (( it's been two weeks, he might have learned to fly, maybe ))
GM: Go for it.
Berkun: fast draw barbed[3d6] => [1,5,5] = (11) fast load[3d6] => [5,5,5] = (15)
Ayake: Goddammit, that's my ogre. >.
GM: He's 50 yds away effectively.
Berkun: vitals shot [3d6.skill(20,-7-3+1+1)] => [1,5,6] = 12 vs (12) or less Success! by 0 
Berkun: 25?
Ayake: Altitude.
GM: Right.
Berkun: oh, 50... miss, then
GM: By more than 1 even, so clean miss.
Richard: by 1?
GM: [3d6.skill(9)] => [4,1,2] = 7 vs (9) or less Success! by 2 
Richard: too bad
Mrugnak: Still yours then :D
GM: Ironically, the arrow misses the Ogre but is headed to Ayake.
Berkun: hum
GM: Is Ayake defending?
Ayake: Parry Missile Weapons: [3d6.skill(15,+1)] => [1,6,4] = 11 vs (16) or less Success! by 5 
GM: Ah.
Ayake: Does success by 5 grab the arrow out of the air?
Richard: (( easily it seems ))
GM: Certainly!
Ayake: I don't remember if that's official or a houserule.
GM: I'm good.
 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Ayake

Ayake: I wish.
Ayake: It was Luck or Combat Reflexes.
GM: Sorry, no.
Ayake: I chose poorly, apparently.
Ayake: ###
 3) YOUR TURN NOW:: [26] Connell 
(on deck: [24] Mrugnak)

GM: Yes, and several others are fleeing. The goblins are moving away and hoping to regroup.
Mrugnak: Mrugnak charges some goblins, looking to smash dere heads!
Mrugnak: Hm. -5 to hit from darkness is ass.
GM: It's only -3 on the wall.
Mrugnak: Goblins are SM -1?
GM: Yes.
Mrugnak: bleh. So, apparently not in the head.
GM: They have their backs to you.
Mrugnak: eeeeeh. -5 for skull from the back, -3 for darkness, -2 for size = -10. Sure!
Mrugnak: I'm going to regret this, but All Out Attack: Dual.
Mrugnak: Wait.
Mrugnak: Can't get far enough to smash two of them.
Mrugnak: Bugger. Heroic Charge.

GM: Okay.
Richard: 2d frag within 5 hexes, 1d within 10
GM: Hmmm... [3d6.skill(15,-3-4)] => [1,6,4] = 11 vs (8) or less Failure! by 3 
[3d6.skill(15,-3-4)] => [1,5,4] = 10 vs (8) or less Failure! by 2 
GM: Hmmm... [3d6.skill(15,-2-4)] => [5,4,4] = 13 vs (9) or less Failure! by 4 
[3d6.skill(15,-2-4)] => [6,2,5] = 13 vs (9) or less Failure! by 4

Berkun: [1d6+6] => [6,6] = (12) impaling, vitals
Narrator: The ogre jumps to his feet, then jumps again to dodge Berkun's arrow. Sadly, Berkun anticipated him, and the arrow pierces the ogre's chest. He clutches the wound, slips, and plummets to the ground.
Berkun: and perhaps he's going to fall down right on that arrow:)
** Ayake sighs and shakes his head as the ogre falls. "Watch your back, there's someone shooting at us." **
Richard: (( imagines a large pile of chunky salsa at the bottom of the tower ))

Mrugnak: Uh, I do that after Connell.

Mrugnak: Go for the ogre, he's a big target.
