WM/Treks/Log 3-8

Narrator: 4 days out from Polisberg, the delvers have assaulted a mound of Antmen. They are now fighting two groups of them, with both sides struggling.
Narrator: Ystava is nearly surrounded on the right, while Torvall is badly wounded on the left. Beltarne frantically runs back and forth, trying to support both sides.
Beltarne: ((I'm helping!))
 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Artegal (on deck: [25] Ystava) 
Artegal: The big antman on my shield side looks like he's trying to get back into the fight despite his big yellow scaredy-cat.
GM: Well, he's kinda shy a leg, though the priest seems to be pumping healing magic into him.
Artegal: Can I sword him without changing facing?
Artegal: I think I can.
GM: No, he's on your flank.
Artegal: There.
GM: Well.
Artegal: DWA: Sword and Shield-Bash on the big guy. He's not SM +1, correct?
GM: Right, just big SM0.
Artegal: Aiming for one of his supporting arms! Sword Swing: [3d6.skill(18,-4-2)] => [6,3,5] = 14 vs (12) or less Failure! by 2 and Shield Bash: [3d6.skill(16,-4-2)] => [5,1,3] = 9 vs (10) or less Success! by 1 
Artegal: Huh.
Artegal: Expected that to go the other way 'round.
Artegal: I'll luck the sword.
Artegal: Sword Swing:</B> [3d6.skill(18,-4-2)] => [6,3,4] = 13 vs (12) or less Failure! by 1 
Artegal: Sword Swing:</B> [3d6.skill(18,-4-2)] => [6,1,5] = 12 vs (12) or less Success! by 0 
Artegal: Squeaks by!
Artegal: Defend at -1 for DWA.
Artegal: And whatever else for position.
Antmen: Sword and halberd cross parry on the sword [3d6.skill(11,2-2+2-1)] => [2,4,6] = 12 vs (12) or less Success! by 0 and shield block vs the shield [3d6.skill(11,2-2-1)] => [1,3,3] = 7 vs (10) or less Success! by 3 
Artegal: He's still holding a sword and a halberd despite supporting himself with two arms?
Artegal: He had to drop *something*.
Antmen: Letme check...
Antmen: You're right!
Antmen: No cross parry bonus is sadness, and a hit. Owie.
Artegal: Sword Damage: [2d6+2] => [1,6,2] = (9) cut to the arm.
Antmen: "owwww"
Antmen: Takes 4 damage, mostly ignores it.
Artegal: ###
 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Ystava (on deck: [25] Beltarne) 
Ystava: Roll leadership.

Ystava: For your rerolls for the turn.
Artegal: Tactics: [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [1,1,2] = 4 vs (13) or less Critical Success! [B556]
Artegal: Well!
Ystava: Aren't I a smart cookie? :D
** Ystava throws his head back and then drives his horns deep down into the Officer's squishy areas. As he twists, he drives his axe in a wide arc into Warrior 13. Dual Weapon Attack, telegraphed on both, vitals on Officer's horn strike, torso on Warrior's axe swing! **
Ystava: "Ystava crush you all!"
Ystava: Ystava also thinks this is -4 for DWA on both, +4 for telegraphed on both, -1 for size on both, and then an extra -3 on the horn strike, for an effective [16-4+4-1] => 15 on the axe and [18-4+4-1-3] => 14 on the horn. 
Artegal: Clearly I have taken their measure.
Ystava: Did I miss anything?
GM: Don't think so.
Ystava: Axe * Primary [3d6.attack(16,-4+4-1)] => [6,3,6] = 15 vs (15) or less Success! by 0 
Ystava: Striker (Longhorn; Impaling) * Gore [3d6.attack(18,-4+4-1-3)] => [2,6,5] = 13 vs (14) or less Success! by 1 
Ystava: Good enough!
Antmen: Officer throws up a frantic parry because it's probably better than dodging? [3d6.skill(10,2-3)] => [6,6,6] = 18 vs (9) or less Critical Failure! by 9 [B556] (hey, non-swing attack, no parry penalty!)while minion blocks [3d6.skill(11,2+2)] => [2,3,1] = 6 vs (15) or less Success! by 9 
Ystava: Defense? I mean I could just roll damage.
Ystava: Using Luck on the Minion's defense.
Ystava: actually
Ystava: no scratch that.
Ystava: Unluck unluck
Ystava: screw the minion :D
Ystava: I'll get him later.
Antmen: officer waits to see how he explodes. [3d6.crit_miss()] => 3d6.crit_miss()
Antmen: officer waits to see how he explodes. [3d6.crit_fail()] => [5,2,3] = 10 You drop your weapon (& a cheap weapon breaks). [B556]
Antmen: officer waits to see how he explodes. [3d6.crit_unarm()] => [1,1,5] = 7 You stumble: If attacking, you advance one yard past opponent with them behind you (you are facing away); if parrying you fall down! [B557]
Antmen: no too badly.
Ystava: Striker (Longhorn; Impaling) * Gore [2d6+6] => [1,3,6] = (10) imp
Ystava: Using luck on THAT.
Ystava: Striker (Longhorn; Impaling) * Gore [2d6+6] => [2,5,6] = (13) imp
Ystava: Striker (Longhorn; Impaling) * Gore [2d6+6] => [3,5,6] = (14) imp
Ystava: Ok. I'm good.
Antmen: Takes 27 damage, resists death! [3d6.skill(12)] => [5,2,5] = 12 vs (12) or less Success! by 0

GM: A defensive feint followed by a strike on the net guy -- the attack on the net guy is at -1, since he's lying down in close combat.

Wolfgang: ((skill-6 to reverse grip!))
Wolfgang: ((odd that some grip changes are skill rolls and some are perks))
GM: He can go from Defensive to normal 1/turn as a free action, so I assume he did that before attacking.
Torvall: Yeah...I'm probably screwing this all up...not used to the grip stuff.
Torvall: And since he's in my hex I thought I had to stay in C mode.
GM: If he's lying down in front of you, I think we can ignore that issue, especially since you're stabbing at his face, which is 6' away.
