froglegg: You are welcome
genghisdon: is there W SP in this game?
Mablir Dorlig: Are you allowing spells from UA or PHB only?
Kjato Ragfoot: I think you can use anything that is in the OSRIC pdf.
jobatett Has entered the room
Smon: PHB only
jobatett: UGH
chris107: WSP is +1 damage per level Don
jobatett: Damn computer
Smon: We're only using PHB & DMG in this game, guys
chris107: No additional attacks vs less than 1HD
Smon: I suggested OSRIC but preference was for original 1e
jobatett: Ok, So I'm going old school and using a paper sheet
Kjato Ragfoot: Ah. OK. I only have OSRIC, though.
chris107: Lots of paper here too Jobatett!
Smon: House rules etc are on the blog http://smonsyggsburgh.blogspot.com/
jobatett: Please, Call me Joba

jobatett: I can'r find my pencil!
jobatett: Found it!
jobatett: Abilities?
Smon: This DM screen has most of the 1e rules you need http://www.dragonsfoot.org/php4/archive.php?sectioninit=CS&fileid=228&watchfile=0
genghisdon: thnx cris
Smon: You don't need to 'join' the blog chris?!
chris107: Never used WSpec before Don. It's a real treat!
genghisdon: ha!
chris107: No problem there Simon. Could read every thing just fine.
Smon: Uh, we're not using weapon spec 
genghisdon: till they chop us up with it, anyway!
chris107: A +1 Damage per level
genghisdon: oh
jobatett: What class should I be?
chris107: will do just fine 
Smon: I'm giving Ftr/Pal/Rgr +1 dmg/level instead of weapon spec & extra atts vs 0 levellers
Kjato Ragfoot: A mage/thief or cleric/thief
genghisdon: ok
chris107: With a 3?!
genghisdon: single class u must be, with a 3
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh, the 3. True.
genghisdon: in 1e AD&D anyway, so I dunno
jobatett: I don't multiclass
chris107: We got a Ranger, Cleric, 2 Fighters, fighter/Thief and Fighter/MU so far
jobatett: So fighters a taken care of
genghisdon: another cleric or MU would be nice
jobatett: &are
chris107: 3 str = MU, 3 IQ = FTYR, 3 Wis = Thief, 3 Dex = Cleric
jobatett: *are
jobatett: Thieves like a high Wis
genghisdon: play whatever you want joba
chris107: 3 CHA = Assassin 
jobatett: I still need the abilities again
genghisdon: and assassin plus a ranger is a good if odd mix
chris107: 9 8 12 10 15 3
jobatett: Thanks
jobatett: 9 8 12 10 15 3
jobatett: lol, I had them in copy
jobatett: I always wanted to play an evil guy
Mablir Dorlig: brb
Kjato Ragfoot: We agreed on a neutral party with good tendencies, if I remember correctly.
jobatett: I'm thinking a crafty wizard
Smon: I let assassins be N or E, you can be E if you have reasons not to kill fellow PCs
chris107: Chaotic Good here
Goonergeezer: we did
Smon: I'd recommend maybe N(E) 
jobatett: I never kill party members
jobatett: Why play D&D if your just going to kill your party?
genghisdon: good point
jobatett: I don't see the point in that
chris107: Yeah that's so 70's 
Kjato Ragfoot: No idea, but I already played with such groups.
jobatett: Yes, Good point
genghisdon: pick something so we can get started joba
Smon: OK, I want to start now!
jobatett: My party always killed me 
chris107: Yaeh!
jobatett: even my players killed me
jobatett: Ok
jobatett: What's needed more, Thief or Wizard?
Kjato Ragfoot: joba: Both. Toss a coin.
chris107: Wizard?
genghisdon: whichever you want
Smon: It's dawn, and your PCs are in the coaching inn the Sun & Moon, in the hamlet of Nearcliff on Dunfalcon Pike, beneath the shadows of Baron Redfort's Castle.
froglegg: Have fun guys later.

jobatett: cya
genghisdon: bye
jobatett: Mage
Smon: Here you will be joining the coach for the 25 mile trip to Yggsburgh, a day away.
froglegg Has exited the room
genghisdon: what is the weather like?
Smon: Some of you have spent the night in the common room, those of you with more gold have taken private chambers.
Smon: It looks like being a bright sunny day in late spring.
chris107: Common room for me then!
Smon: Some of you nurse bleary heads from the night's drinking, others are bright eyed & bushy tailed (darn elves!)
genghisdon: Opa can bunk with morganna
Mablir Dorlig: Common Room for me, but no hang over
chris107: #
genghisdon: ha!
Smon: We can say Opa & Morganna have met
chris107: Okay, works for me.
Kjato Ragfoot: I will have had a private chamber then.
Smon: Outside, the coachman Rufus is overseeing the loading of the coach.
jobatett: ((Abilities are done))
genghisdon: "we need to fin some funds fast, once we arrive in Yggsburg" M tells Opa over breakfast
Goonergeezer: i will go outside and see who else will be joining the coach journey, and what is being loaded
Smon: Rumour has it a pair of noble ladies are travelling on the coach - you haven't seen them yet, but a footman is helping Rufus.
jobatett: (Tardan Kinkuncle))
chris107: 'We sure do"
Kjato Ragfoot: I will have a good breakfast, the best my money can buy.
genghisdon: Is it to be ladies inside, men on the roof?
jobatett: ((I'm a human))
Smon: Everyone please put your PC's name at the start of each post so I know who you are.
corum: Flynn will collect his things and head outside with Garrick
chris107: Opa - 'Just a little dry toast for me.'
Goonergeezer: i'll wander up to rufus and ask if he needs help
Smon: GM: You all paid for the trip last night. Rufus nods cordially to Flynn.
Mablir Dorlig: once M & O finish breakfast Corak will approach them and ask if they have any contacts in Yggsburgh
corum: Flynn to Garrick "Good morning sir, how did you sleep?" 
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader - I will have a good breakfast.
Goonergeezer: garrick: very well thank you, and yourself?
chris107: Opa - Do we need to deduct any GP Simon?
Smon: @chris - no, you paid pre game 
genghisdon: huzza!
chris107: Phew!
corum: Flynn To Garrick "restless, public transport makes me nervous"
corum: ((in that case Flynn takes his Breakfast outside with him))
Smon: Rufus nods to Garrick: "Help is always welcome, friend, See those chests..."
Goonergeezer: garrick to rufus: will the journey be peaceful or do we have any reason to be oon guard for parts?
jobatett: ((I have a problem))
jobatett: (How am I to buy stuff without a PHB?))
Smon: Put 'Garrick' before your posts gooner
Goonergeezer: garrick to flynn: well i hope you sit far away from me last thing i want is someone with a nervous stomache

genghisdon: d4+1
Goonergeezer: Garrick ill start helping lift the chests onto the top of the coach
genghisdon: dagger is 2
corum: Flynn does not laugh at Garricks joke
chris107: Opa- Looks on with interest..
Smon: If you don't have a PHB, just use this: http://www.dragonsfoot.org/php4/archive.php?sectioninit=CS&fileid=228&watchfile=0
jobatett rolls 1d4+1 and gets: 2, (+1) = 3 
corum: He does begin to help Garrick with the cases
jobatett: ((So 30GP?))
genghisdon: Morganna "shall we go watch the men sweat?"
genghisdon: yes
genghisdon: i think
corum: Flynn to Rufus: "What is in these cases?"
chris107: Opa - Giggles nervously ...
genghisdon: sorry it is 2d4 joba 
corum: PHB etc http://www.4shared.com/account/dir/12999404/8c3011d0/sharing.html#dir=37100252
genghisdon is a liar
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader slowly eats his breakfast, watching the large people around him.
genghisdon Has exited the room
chris107: @ Kjato, I'm only 4'4 and 5 stone
jobatett rolls 2d4 and gets: 1, 4, = 5 
Mablir Dorlig: Corak approaches Opa & Morganna - I couldn't help overhearing that you are bound for Yggsburgh?
genghisdon Has entered the room
Smon: Rufus to Flynn: "Merchants' stuff -cutlery I reckon..."
chris107: Opa - @ Corak - Stutters and blushes.
jobatett: ((Ok, I've got enough done to play))
Smon: Duvader and the others still in the breakfast hall look up as two elegantly dressed noblewomen come downstairs, accompanied by a homely maidservant.
Mablir Dorlig: Corak to Opa - forgive me I was wondering if you had any contacts there
chris107: Opa - @ Morgana ' I am unused to the company of men' in a whisper
corum: Flynn estimates the weight of one of the case as he picks it up
Smon: One is an attractive, very shapely young redhead, the other a stout middle-aged dame.
genghisdon: Morgana whispers back in elven " they are fun, but a bit dangerous"
jobatett: Tardan "Hello, What are you two lovely ladies doing here?"
Smon: GM @Flynn: The case is about 45 lb
genghisdon: Morgana to the ladies "Good Morning Ladies"
Smon: GM: job, send me your PC before you enter play 
Goonergeezer: Garrick on the last case i hand up i will accidentally drop
Smon: /roll 1d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
chris107: Opa - @ ladies, nods politely 
jobatett: ((I kinda can't))
Smon: Garrick' case hits the cobbles and breaks open - stuffing and silverware scatters across the courtyard.
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader stands up, nods and says "Good Morning Ladies".
Smon: Rufus: "Aagh! Ye eejit!"
genghisdon: Morgana giggles
Smon: The noble ladies nod graciously to Morgana and Duvader.
chris107: Opa giggles
prespos Has entered the room
corum: Flynn winks at Garrick
Mablir Dorlig: Corak - turns away from Opa & Morganna and heads to the door
Goonergeezer: Garrick: " i am so sorry, please forgive my clumsiness" and proceed to stuff the items back into the chest
genghisdon: hi pres
Smon: The young redhead looks at Duvader: "I say! One of the Little People! How curious!"
prespos: hi .. just watching .. will stay quiet
corum: Flynn helps Garrick pick up the silverware
chris107: Opa - @ Carak, follows and apologises in a low voice. ' Sorry sir. I did not mean to be rude. I am a stranger to your ways.'
Smon: The older woman speaks to Morgana & co: "Good morning. I am Dame Gertrude Kallent, of the noble House Kallent. Are you also travelling to Yggsburgh?"
corum: Flynn to Garrick: "dont worry, I would've opened one up to check soon enough"
jobatett: "Yes, I am"
corum: ((that was whispered)
Smon: Outside, Rufus the coachman glares at Garrick. "Better be none missing when ye're done!"
genghisdon: "Yes, indeed we are, I am Morganna maples, and this is Opa-Loca of the Fey"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak @ Opa I'm afraid I've led a sheltered life and am not used to dealing with others
Goonergeezer: Garrick to Flynn "but my way seems a lot less intrusive"
Goonergeezer: whispered
corum: Flynn to Rufus: "this is a fine coach, you must be proud of her!"
Smon: Gertrude nods to Morganna. "Baptised in the Light of the Lord, I trust?"
chris107: Opa @ Corak, I am sure we will find common ground if we are both travelling to the Metropolis.
jobatett: ((I'm sorry but 7 people on a chat game is too many))
genghisdon: Morganna looks puzzled a moment, than says "uh, yes"
Smon: Rufus nods to Flynn, beaming. "Aye! She'll hold 8 inside, 6 or more atop!"
chris107: Opa - Overhears Gertrudes comments and looks on nervously
jobatett: ((I don't think I can do it))
Mablir Dorlig: Corak @ Opa - who can say what is ordained
prespos: [you can joba .. just hang in there .. don't give up]
genghisdon: see ya sunday then joba
chris107: It'll settle down..
jobatett: ((Ok, Pres))
corum: Flynn to Rufus "I would like to sit up top, if thats ok with you, will there be room?"
Smon: Gertrude nods to Morgana. "That's good. My niece Tabitha is young and impressionable. It wouldn't do to be travelling with heathens."
Smon: Rufus nods to Flynn. "Aye! We'll have a full load today."
chris107: Opa - Looks startled at this last from the old bat
genghisdon: Morganna: "no, of course, not"
genghisdon: smiles
jobatett: Tardan follows Rufus
Felorn Has entered the room
jobatett: ((Hi Fel))
Smon: @job - until you send me a PC you're not in play.
chris107: Hi Felorn
Felorn: ((Hey, guessing you guys are in game.))
genghisdon: yep, hi
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader Is very much interested in his breakfast while the Lady and the Elf speak over being baptized and the church.
Smon: The ladies' servant loads up their bags on the stagecoach. Soon it is ready to depart.
jobatett Has exited the room
genghisdon: Morganna gets on board
Smon: Rufus the coachman: "Okay, all aboard!"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak will try and ensure he is sat on the roof of the coach
corum: Flynn will finish loading the cases with Garrick and then climb onto the top of the coach making sure he is right at the front
Goonergeezer: Garrick: I will clamber onto the roof
chris107: Opa @Corak 'Good day sir' @ Margana 'Shall we get inside now?'
genghisdon: "yes indeed"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak @ Opa (quickly) yes good day
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader gets his mule and binds her to the coach.
chris107: @ Morgana (sotto vocce) ' What a dreadful old trout.'
Kjato Ragfoot: He will sit at the back of the roof, if that is all right.
genghisdon: Morganna whispers back "be careful, these humans are religous zealots in many cases"
chris107: Opa - blushes once more
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ Duvader "fine by me friend"
Smon: GM: Duvader, Garrick, Flynn & Corak join the ladies' footman Grigor atop the coach, just behind Rufus, while Morgana and Opa join dame Gertrude, Tabitha & their maid Molly inside.
corum: Flynn @ Duvader: nods approval
genghisdon: Morganna "so Tabitha, what brings you out on the road?"
Smon: Rufus: "Giddup!" with a crack of his whip the coach horses start, he steets them out of the courtyard and out onto Dunfalcon Pike.
chris107: @ GM are we carrying our equipment or is it stored on the coach?
corum: Flynn is carrying ALL his equipment
Smon: Tabitha glances to Gertrude before replying to Morgana. "My father feels I should continue my education in Yggsburgh... It is a great centre of learning."
Smon: GM: You have your gear, tabards over armour.
genghisdon: Morgana "so I too have heard...what exactly are you to study?"
Smon: Tabitha looks to Gertrude again. "Um, I don't exactly know... etiquette and deportment?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader to Grigor Say, what do you know about Yggsburgh? I've never been to the city.
Smon: Gertrude nods, smiling. "She will learn to be a proper lady. Tabitha has been a little... wilful... of late."
genghisdon: Moirgana laughs softly "but surely you are already knowledgeable in those areas, my dear"
corum: Flynn studies Grigor intently
genghisdon: brb
Smon: @Flynn - Grigor is a lean, well built man of middle years, he seems taciturn.
Smon: Tabitha nods to Morgana. "Of course, my governess instructed me as she could... but Kallent is such a backwater!"
genghisdon: Morganna gives Opa a look & then Tabitha a wink 
chris107: Opa giggles
Mablir Dorlig: Corak will sit and mumble some prayers while journeying
Smon: Gertrude: "She will also study Music and Art at the Academy. A little History, perhaps."
chris107: then blushes and pulls her hood in close
genghisdon: Morganna " I am sure you will greatly expand your...education, in the big city"
Smon: Tabitha looks curiously at Morgana, and smiles slightly. Gertrude frowns.
chris107: Opa @ Morgana (slyly) There History always seems so ....short.
GameOgre Has entered the room
Smon: The coach heads north-east along the Pike at a good pace, though the ground is a little muddy after recent rain.
corum: Flynn @ Corak "What brings a holy man this way?"
genghisdon: Morganna @ Opa in elven " it IS short indeed"
Smon: To the north across the meadows you can see the silver thread of the River Nemo parralleling your course.
chris107: Opa smiles, shyly.
Smon: Meadows and heathland spread off to the south, dotted with farms.
genghisdon: Morganna "pleasant country side"
Goonergeezer: Garrick: "smell that boys, the smell of shit, you know you're in the country when you can smell that"
Smon: Gertrude: "Redfort country."
Smon: The coachman Rufus chuckles at Garrick's words. "Steady sir, yon Ranger is of the Eastmark, I'll warrant". He gestures at Flynn.
corum: Flynn grunts and tightens his grip on his crossbow...
Goonergeezer: Garrick: "grumble, mumble shit mumble" and then smiles a big toothless smile @Flynn
Smon: After a couple hours, you pass a marker post. Rufus: "That;'s the 12-mile mark. 12 miles to Yggsburgh. We're in the East Mark now." He looks a little tense. 
GameOgre Has exited the room
Mablir Dorlig: Corak @ Flynn "I felt a need sir" and goes back to mumbling prayers
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ rufus " do we have ant reason for concern in these here parts?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader Ah, then the danger from bandits should be reduced when we get closer to the city.
Smon: Rufus @ Garrick: "Keep an eye out... been highwaymen in these parts, recently."
Felorn Has exited the room
Goonergeezer: Garrick: i'll take one of my throwing axes out and keep it to haND
Smon: Rufus: "Lord Ollie and his band... worse pack of outlaws the East Mark's bred in years, I'd say..."
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ all on roof " be ready boy, might be somer trouble around here
Smon: "Happy Bert...The Ox... Gray Willie and the rest..."
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader Great, and I thought I left the fighting behind... 
Kjato Ragfoot: He readies his sling.
corum: Flynn recognising the name "lord ollie" sighs deeply
Mablir Dorlig: Corak: looks up and grasps his mace
corum: Flynn @ Garrick "I hope your hand with that axe"
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ flynn " i haven't mi9ssed with one of my beauties in 3 days, so don't you be a-worrying"
Smon: To the north, across the river, the West Fields are dotted with hamlets, but here on the south side of the Nemo the land is wild, few habitations to be seen.
Smon: /roll 1d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,
chris107: Opa - @ Morgana (in Elven) It looks so dead without the trees.
Smon: GM: Flynn's keen Ranger senses stand him in good stead as he spots something suspicious in a copse of trees ahead, just right of the road.
corum: Flynn @ Garrick "over there in the trees"
corum: "I think we have company"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak again looks up and fumbles for his sling after replacing his mace
Goonergeezer: Garrick: I'll call down to the people inside the coach and tell them there miught be some trouble in a minute " kep your heads down ladies "
chris107: Opa-Loca @ Morgana - smiles knowingly.
Smon: Gertrude looks up, nonplussed. "What? What?"
Goonergeezer: Garrick to Rufus " do we stop for bandits or do we keep on going?"
genghisdon: morgana makes sure her sword is readily able to be drawn
genghisdon: "Stay calm, I'm sure the men can handle any little trouble"
chris107: Opa-Loka strings her bow and loosend the cap on a quiver
corum: Flynn readies arrows
chris107: Opa - @ The ladies. ' I'm sure Morgana is right'
chris107: 'They look quite.......Able?
Smon: Rufus: "What's that you say, man? Bandits?" That's when the dark clad masked riders burst out of the copse ahead, crossbows raised...o
genghisdon: Morganna in elven "but just in case..."
corum: Flynn @ Rufus "Do not stop, man, keep the coach rolling"
chris107: Opa @ Morgana - Winks
corum: ((how far away?))
Smon: Rufus: "HY-YAAH!" With a savage crack of the whip he spurs the horse forward, past the surprised brigands!
chris107: DM, How steady is the coach? How big the windows?
genghisdon: Morganna makes sure the ladies get down low
Smon: /roll 1d6x2
Smon Rolls 1d6x2 and gets:
1 = 1
3 = 3

corum: Flynn will wheel round and fire as the coach passes
Smon: GM: The coach is pretty well sprung, it has large windows, with shutters, on both sides
Smon: Think 17th/18th century stage coach
Mablir Dorlig: Corak will try and let loose some sling stones
Goonergeezer: Distance to brigands?
chris107: GM Is it possible to close the shutters by the ladies and still have a clear view?
Smon: GM: A flash of green light arcs from the depth of the copse to strike Flynn...
Smon: There's 1 shutter on each side, on the door window
Smon: /roll 1d4+1
Smon rolls 1d4+1 and gets: 4, (+1) = 5 
genghisdon: Morganna closes the shutter near her
Smon: Flynn suddenly slumps unconscious in his seat!
corum: Flynn: "unghh"
Smon: The reins falling loose from his hand...
Mablir Dorlig: Corak forgets using his sling and instead crawls over to Flynn
Mablir Dorlig: trys looking for wounds
chris107: Opa-Loca closes the other 80% peeping out at the action
Kjato Ragfoot: Seeing that Corak cares for Flynn, Duvader targets the closest rider.
Smon: GM: Rufus grabs the reigns - Flynn jerks awake, he took 5 damage.
Smon: You've passed the riders, now they spur their horses forward in pursuit.
genghisdon: (shoot them into hell guys)
Kjato Ragfoot: Ah, I thought they are already pursuing us.
chris107: Opa to DM - She knocks an arrow and keeps a look out for any likely targets.
Smon: /roll 1d6x2
Smon Rolls 1d6x2 and gets:
4 = 4

Smon: GM: OK, those on the roof with bows etc ready can shoot at the pursuers.
Mablir Dorlig rolls 1d8 and gets: 4,
Smon: Looks like 6 of them.
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ dm what distance are they away?
Smon: They're about 50 yards away, 5"
corum: Flynn @ Corack "thank you sir"
Smon: Movement will give you -2 on attack roll.
corum: Flynn @ everyone "what hit me?"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak crawls back away and checks if there's room for using a sling
Goonergeezer: Garrick: as soon as a rider closes to 10 i will throw an axe
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader @Flynn some green light.
Smon: Garrick if you wait I will do enemy attacks next
genghisdon: (fire!)
Kjato Ragfoot: OK, then I will shoot before the enemies d.
Goonergeezer: ok, i will throw an axe at closest target
Kjato Ragfoot: I will shoot a sling stone at the second rider.
Smon: axe range is 3, so not in range
genghisdon: (figures we have 2 elven archers inside...LOL)
Goonergeezer: Garrick: Range is too great for throwing axe i wil have to wait until at least 30
chris107: 
Goonergeezer: ah lol
Smon: Sling stone is medium range, bullet short
Kjato Ragfoot: That is an additional -2, correct?
corum: Flynn will wait until they draw nearer, he cant get a shot in accurately at that range 
Smon: The gnome slings a sttone at -4, yup.
Kjato Ragfoot rolls 1d20-2 and gets: 10, (-2) = 8 
Kjato Ragfoot: Uh, that flies wide.
Smon: Net 6 for range and bumpy ride, you miss
Kjato Ragfoot: No, net 8. I get +2 for high DEX.
Kjato Ragfoot: But it is still a far miss.
Smon: ok
Mablir Dorlig: Corak aims at one of the horses
corum: ((are the riders closing?))

chris107: 
Smon: yes
corum: ((hey I got hit with the green light thingy))
Smon: Rufus has cover from the back of the coach
Smon: Grigor cries out as a bolt strikes him in the back. He rolls towards the edge of the coach roof...
Smon: Any PC who didn't shoot yet & is on the roof can try to grab him - make an 'open doors' STR check
Goonergeezer: Garrick: i will grab hold of him to stop him falling
corum: Flynn checks to see if the riders are in range of his Light Crossbow
genghisdon: (grab him?_
Goonergeezer rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
Smon: roll a d6 to try to grab him
Mablir Dorlig: Corak tries to grab the reins from Rufus
Smon: 6 is a fail.
Goonergeezer: Garrick: "Oooopss Butterfingers"
Smon: anyone else?
Kjato Ragfoot: I shot, I cannot grab him.
corum rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
Mablir Dorlig: what do I roll to grab reins
Smon: same, d6
Mablir Dorlig rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
Smon: GM: OK, Flynn grabs Grigor in the nick of time!
corum: ((does that mean we cant shoot this round?))
Smon: Flynn is holding onto Grigor. Corak threw a slingstone, then moves to the front to wrestle the reins from Rufus. Rufus: "HEY!!"
Smon: 3 in 6 the bandits get closer
Smon: /roll 1d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Smon: You're maintaining your distance as you race across the heathland.
Smon: Duvader, you can shoot again.
Kjato Ragfoot: All right!
Kjato Ragfoot rolls 1d20-2 and gets: 7, (-2) = 5 
Smon: The good news is, the bad guys can't reload while chasing you 
Kjato Ragfoot: Boah. Gnomes are not made for shooting from coaches.
Smon: /roll 1d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
Smon: The highwaymen close in... anyone have axes ready?
Mablir Dorlig: Cora @ Rufus "lie still you are injured"
Goonergeezer: garrick: i do
chris107: DM -Have any come into view yet?
Smon: Rufus @Corac:"I'm fine ye eejit! They shot Grigor! Gimme the reins back!"
Goonergeezer: dm: what range are they now?
Smon: You see a farmhouse ahead, a quarter mile off.
Smon: The bandits close within 30 yards.
Mablir Dorlig: ((I'm confused thought it was Rufus they shot))
Smon: No, Grigor
Smon: The footman.
Goonergeezer: dm: are they directly behind the coach??
corum: Flynn @ Corack "come help This man he's hurt "
Smon: In the carriage, Gertrude looks to the elf maids: "What on Earth is going on?!"
Smon: They're on the road behind you, yup
Smon: Garrick can throw an axe
corum: Flynn points @ Grigor
Goonergeezer: dm: how are the chests and luggage fastened to the roof of the coach?
Smon: They're roped dowb
Mablir Dorlig: Corak will check how injured grigor is
Smon: Grigor is unconscious but stable for now
corum: Flynn lets Corack check Grigir and will ready a shot @ the riders
Smon: The bolt is sticking out between his shoulder blades
Mablir Dorlig: In that case Corak will go back to his sling
genghisdon: Morganna "Brigans, keep low, if the men fail usm I assure you, elven miaden shall not"
Goonergeezer: Garrick: i will start loosening the ropes and let the luggage fall in there way once they close the range to approc 10-15
chris107: Opa - @ Morgana (in Elvish) If we throw the fat one out we'll go much more quickly...
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ rufus when i let the luggage trip the horses stop and we finish them ok?"
Smon: Rufus takes the reins back. Garrick uses his readied axe to hack at the luggage as the brigands close in - chests of silverware and fancy dresses tumble to the ground and crack open in a spray of cutlery and silk!
corum: ((chris lol))
genghisdon: Morganna in elven " I doubt that would stop them, and it is quite rude besides"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak doesn't want to risk making injury worse while bumping along, if he's stable it should be okay
Smon: The bandits' horses shy, rearing up in sudden fright.
Goonergeezer: Garrick to rufus " stop the coach" to all " to arms!!"
Smon: As the distance suddenly opens up again, you hear yells from the brigands: "Silver!"
genghisdon: (why stop now?)
Smon: Rufus glances back, over his shoulder. To Garrick: "Ye're mad, man! We're gettin' away!"
genghisdon: (but I am game)
Kjato Ragfoot: Was any of our equipement lost or just the nobles?
genghisdon: lol
chris107: Opa @ the ladies -' Did that belong to you?'
Goonergeezer: Garrick to rufus " fine by me, 'tis a small price to pay for our lives"
Smon: You're suddenly a good hundred yards ahead of the bandits. The farm house is close ahead now, geese scatter from your wheels.
Smon: (You didn't have anything packed in the chests, did you?)
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, I did not.
chris107: Glad I asked earlier! 
Mablir Dorlig: As soon as the coach halts Corak will use CLW on Grigor
Smon: Tabitha looks to Opa: "Did what belong to us... " she leans forward and looks back, out the window. "Aunt Gertrude! Our cases!"
genghisdon: "plundered by brigands..perhaps we can hunt them down & return your belongings"
Smon: Behind you the bandits have stopped, several have dismounted to gather up the expensive dresses and silver cutlery strewn about.
genghisdon: (are we stopped?)
Smon: Rufus is not stopping voluntarily! 
chris107: Opa-Loca @ Morgana 'Their only a hundred or so yards away. Shall we shoot them down?
Smon: You trundle past the farmhouse, the horses sweating..
Kjato Ragfoot: Rufus, slow down. If you kill the horses, we are not to outrun the brigands.
genghisdon: Morgana "i doubt we have a shot from here..STOP the carriage!" 
corum: Flynn @ Carack "you should tend to your own wounds first first healer"
Goonergeezer: Garrick: " the horses need a rest and our friend here need attention, the farmhouse is as good as any to defend from the outlaws"
Smon: GM: An x-bow could be fired out the coach window, but not a regular bow
chris107: Opa-Loca - @ The boys 'STOP THE CARRIAGE NOW!'
genghisdon: "STOP! STOP!"
Smon: Rufus slows the horses to a canter, but doesn't stop. You're now 200 yards from the bandits.
Smon: 50 yards past the farmhouse.
genghisdon: "ah well"
Mablir Dorlig: How steady is the travel now?
chris107: Opa - @ The ladies, 'So sorry it looks like your stuff's been left behind' 
Smon: Those on the roof can see that three of the bandits have reloaded x-bows and have them trained in your direction, the other 3 are still gathering loot.
chris107: 'Is it very valuable?
Smon: Gertrude pales: "My dresses! My beautiful dresses!"
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ rufus back to the farmhouse man we need to stop and defend ourselves they will pepper us with arrows the entire journey!"
corum: Flynn @ Rufus "if your going to stop man, stop!"
Smon: A turn in the road past some trees, and the bandits are out of sight. Rufus slows the coach to a trot. "We made it!" he grins, relieved. "Thought I were a goner fer sure!"
genghisdon: lol
chris107: Opa-Loca @ Morgan 'We should help, shouldn't we?'
genghisdon: "how? chase them on foot?"
Mablir Dorlig: Corak now uses CLW on Grigor & Ruvader (one on each)
chris107: @No, wait for them to catch up...
Smon: There's no sign of pursuit - presumably the bandits are happier to take their loot than face another fight.
genghisdon: "i am game to head back"
Smon: Ahead you see a pale smoke-haze in the air... the first sign of Yggsburgh.
Goonergeezer: Garrick: " we should get off this contraption and track them back to their hide-out"
chris107: Opa @ the girls (Blood thirsty-ly) Me too..
corum: Flynn @ Garrick "man... i didn't even get a shot off!"
genghisdon: Morganna Yells "CAN ANY OF YOU MEN TRACK THE THIEVES?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Yes, tracking sounds good. But first, I'd like to get rid of this crossbowbolt.
Smon: Rufus pulls the coach up to a halt in a sheltered grove. "Any of you want to go chasing Lord Ollie, be my guests! I'm going to Yggsburgh!"
genghisdon: "where are you ladies staying?"
corum: Flynn @ Morganna grimacing "yes"
genghisdon: "then are any of you willing to capture or kill this lord ollie & his louts?"
Goonergeezer: Garrick " I am"#
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, I am willing. There should be a hafty price on their heads.
Smon: You dismount to take stock. Tabitha supports Gertrude, who looks shell-shocked. "My clothes..." she groans again. "The Grand Ball is tomorrow!" 
chris107: Opa - Maybe there's a reward?
genghisdon: "then lets be after them"
Kjato Ragfoot: Plus, I have to thank for this hole in my shirt.
Goonergeezer: I feel partially to blame for these fine ladies losing their belongings"
genghisdon: "Tabitha, where are you staying?"
corum: Flynn "we should not leave these two young ladies and thier injured footman to fend for themselves"
Kjato Ragfoot: Well, we could bring them all into the city first and get this Lord Ollie second.
Kjato Ragfoot: He probably won't run away that quickly.
chris107: Opa - Perhaps they would be safe at yonder farm until we return?
genghisdon: (they were mounted)
Goonergeezer: but their trail is fresh now
Mablir Dorlig: Corak @ all I think there are a few of us who need to recover - we can always follow the trail later
Smon: Tabitha nods. "We are planning to stay at the house of Sir Ulrich Hawkes. His wife Madam Winifred is my aunt Gertrude's sister."
genghisdon: "lets go, now or never"
corum: Flynn "But, I can not track them unless we do so now!"
genghisdon: "would you rather go on to there, or await us at the farmhouse?"
chris107: Opa @ All - 'Lets get 'em!'
Smon: GM: You're about 6-7 miles from Yggsburgh, you reckon.
Kjato Ragfoot: OK. Then let's track them now, wait till they are drunk tonight and then kill them in their sleep.
Goonergeezer: Garrick, i say now, strike while the iron is hot
genghisdon: "come, on, are you men or mice!" Morganna taunts
chris107: Opa - Me too
Smon: GM: The maid Molly escorts Gertrude to sit on a handy treestump.
genghisdon: "Tabitha, we shall see you later"
Smon: Tabitha: "Without our grand dresses, we'll miss the Ball... I shall be... ruined..." she says, tearfully.
Smon: Tabitha nods to Morganna.
genghisdon: I set forth back to where the brigands are/were
genghisdon: I string my bow too
Kjato Ragfoot: Duvader looks a little puzzled.
Smon: GM: Need to quit fairly soon, it's nearly 10pm.
Goonergeezer: Garrick @ Tabitha Fret not sweet lady, i will get your fine dresses back "
Kjato Ragfoot: Then follows whoever is going to lead to the bandis camp.
Smon: /roll 1d100
chris107: Opa - (kindly) @ Tabitha, ' We'll get your dresses, don't worry. You will go to the ball!' Slaps one lincoln green thigh!
Smon rolls 1d100 and gets: 100,
genghisdon: ok, is dinner time for me anyway
corum: Flynn starts to move down the patch towards the brigands direction
Mablir Dorlig: ((RL calls folks already longer than intended))
genghisdon: lets call it then
Smon: Hm... Tabitha gazes starry-eyed at Garrick (best possible result)!
Goonergeezer: ok, when next?
chris107: Good place to start next time.
Mablir Dorlig Has exited the room
Smon: Tabitha is gazing starry eyed at Garrick.
corum: ((why dont we leave it here after we decide on actions))
Smon: "Sir... thank you for rescuing me" she says shyly.
Goonergeezer: Tis a pleasure my sweet, one of many i may introduce you to
Smon: Despite his rough attire, the young noblewoman seems infatuated with the ex-farmhand.
Goonergeezer: wink wink
Smon: (Garrick rolled a 100 on d100 reaction roll from Tabitha, higher the better) 
OculusOrbus Has entered the room
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh, wow.
corum: ((I get like a 90% chance to track outdoors anyway?))
Kjato Ragfoot: Allright, we will hunt brigands on Thursday then?
OculusOrbus: lads

Kjato Ragfoot: Hello OO

Smon: Tabitha looks to Opa. "You are very kind, lady elf." She bends over and kisses the dimunitive elf-maid on the cheek.
OculusOrbus: Rags!
Smon: GM: OK, I'll stop there. Next game Thursday, 7pm again.
