Grim considers the Ettin's words and actions, he searches the body and the immediate area attempting to get some sort of insight into the creature and it's possible motives and possibly understand why it was so easy to kill.

Grim Insight: 22 Inspiration: 4

You think it may have been tougher than it seemed but just too stupid and slow to deal with all of you. Since it was alone you think it may not be connected to the 'Goblin Horde' (especially since it went last and we never got to it's turn. lol)

It has nothing but the 2 over-sized crude weapons.

The bridge is wooden but solid with thick beams. It spans some 120 feet across the river to the other side.

Randall:

Randall moves forward and inspects the bridge, attempting to ensure there are no traps or other nasty surprises for the refugees to encounter.

Perception:  24

It is as it seems, a sturdy well-built wooden bridge.

Randall:

”Let’s scout out the other side of the bridge, then come back here and keep watch while the refugees cross over.  Anyone have any ideas about dropping the bridge behind us, or maybe using it as a choke point to slow down the goblins?” asks Randall.

If the others are amenable, he rides across the bridge to scout out the other side.

Grim follows Randall over the bridge, keeping an eye out for anything suspicious.

Grim Perception: 12

"Ye, let's check the other side as well. Afterwards; it is a wooden bridge so we could see if we can set it on fire?"

“Maybe. If the city has troops, the bridge might actually be a blessing. It could thin the goblin horde to a manageable number, stringing them out as they try to cross. If the bridge is gone, it’ll slow them down, but not reduce the horde’s size on this side once they do cross. Not to say I’m opposed, just offering ideas.”

"Fair point, but we should ask how far the city is from here, before making any decisions any way"

It is just over a day's travel so the 'Refugees of Garrum' will have to camp one more time before reaching the city just after midday.

The other end of the bridge leads further over the land before connecting, beneath this area is a footpath that leads under the bridge on this side of the river.

Unless you don't want them to cross the bridge the refugees will begin crossing. (remember there are around 900, it will take some time to get them all across if they start right now, if they start later it will take later to finish crossing.)

“I think we have to get our people across. And on further consideration, I think you were on the money. We should destroy the bridge. I can light it on fire, if that’s how we’d like to handle it. Not sure we want to advertise it that much though.”

"Alright, lets just do that, unless the captain of the village is against it, we'll ask when we see him. No indeed lets get this refugees to this side as it doesn't seem there is anything that will harm there here currently."  Bow says before waving the refugees to come over the bridge

Randall:

After making sure the other side of the bridge was clear, Randall responded to Bow, “Agreed, let’s get the refugees over the bridge as soon as may be.  While they are crossing we can discuss what surprises we want to prepare for the goblins.”

"Sounds good to me" Grim says

Half the refugees are across when you spot another goblin horde approaching from the distant South. It looks like the 2 goblin hordes are planning to merge together before they reach the city of Laurentiis.

Those refugees who can swim, begin to swim across the river and leave the old and the feeble, the young and the disabled to cross by bridge.

(Are you planning on destroying the bridge after the refugees are across? If so, how exactly?)

FFFFIIIIIRRRRYYYYAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

Randall:

As he hurries the refugees across the bridge, Randall asks of everyone, “Any oil or pitch or anything flammable you have, leave it at the middle of the bridge as you cross.  We will buy you as much time as we can with steel and fire.  Pass it on!”

Looking at the swimming refugees with concern, Randall says to his companions, “if we take down the bridge too early, the goblins will just swim across.  We should lure a sizable portion of their force onto the bridge and engage them for as long as we can, then set it on fire as we retreat.  Hopefully that will delay them the most.”

OOC:  How wide is the bridge (how many people or goblins across can fit?  I am thinking retreating along the bridge while attacking from a distance, then lighting up the flammables in the middle once we can’t slow then down anymore.

Zam brother Randall don’t play

(OOC How long before the two Goblin Hordes are within about 1000 feet of each other and will that be during the day or night?)

"I have an idea that's just a tiny little bit deranged" Grim says "I'm thinking about finding a position halfway between the two groups and firing arrows intended to look like their coming from the other Goblins. If successful, they may spend some time fighting each other before they figure out what is going on."

“You’ll need goblin arrows for that to work.” 
Petcan will set up for a fighting retreat across the bridge at the back of the refugee pack.

(I figure Petcan has a LOT of fire spells, including fire bolt, control fire, burning hands, scorching ray, and Gust if he really gets it going. We could light the bridge at the bottom, and maybe the first few goblins won’t even notice)
