Khessa realizes that she has no fire-free means of attacking from range; she then steps back toward Rosebud, reaches out for one of the Magic Stones, asking: "May I, my friend?"
The blonde arcane warrior then hurls the enchanted stone at the same zombie that the pugnacious halfling had already struck [[ OOC: Z3, then, I suppose ]].
After completing the throw, the tall adventuress returns to her position, thus allowing others, if they wish, to 'borrow' a stone from the resourceful she-gardener.
Rosaline curses under her breath as she realizes that she can't get close enough to start dicing the zombies up with her twin swords. Still, she has a few options. She pulls out a javelin and hurls it the same zombie everyone else has been trying to take out.

Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
During the next round, the Army of Darkness will continue to act as a 'bone shield', hoping that the party's ranged attacks will begin to ease the enemy pressure - unless someone wants to switch places with one (in that case, the skeleton whose place is desired will Disengage instead, leaving its place to the character without giving Attack of Opportunity to the enemies).
Khessa, noticing how some of the allies seem more suited to melee than ranged combat, says: "If anyone would rather take the place of a skeleton, just tell me and go behind it... and I'll have you switch places".
[[ OOC: For those who prefer to go in melee: position yourself behind one of the skeletons and ready the action to switch place with it and attack. When the skeleton is up, I'll have it come back and you will be able to take its place and attack with your Reaction. ]]
ROSALINE hurls a javelin at the third ZOMBIE. It sticks right through the moving corpse. The corpse is still moving.
Seeing that ROSEBUD has the stones, KHESSA takes one and hurls it at the third ZOMBIE. It looks like it lodges into its chest. The corpse is still moving.
ROUND TWO
(Elias, Rosebud, and Mistynip are up. The AoD's actions are posted.)
Elias reaches for one of the long knives he picked up earlier, I saw this at a street fair back home, doesn't look too hard, He grips the blade close to the tip, and flings it at zombie 3, 14 to hit for 4 pts of damage.
Mistynip remembering that her Yklwa can be thrown like a spear, though not for any distance, pulls it from her back and throws at zombie 1, 17 to his for 9 pts of damage.
“Sorry, Reya. It was probably hard to shoot normally when someone is on your shoulders. Thank you for carrying me!” she says as sincerely as possible.
”Be my guest, dear Be-Be-Be” she responds to Khessa’s request for a stone before adding “Hi-yah!” and herself throwing another pebble at the Zombies. Magic Stone attack 15, damage 8
She concludes be recasting the spell (bonus action) on another 3 pebbles. She cheerfully sings out to her companions, “Come and get them while they are hot. Lucky pebbles for anyone who wants them. No charge if you are going to throw them at a Zombie!”

ROUND TWO
ELIAS tries to mimic a knife juggler and hurls a long knife at the third ZOMBIE.The knife sticks solidly near ROSALINE’s javelin. The young wizard may want to look for a Target Girl for further demonstrations of his budding knife throwing talent. Any volunteers?
ROSEBUD has the stones and knows how to use them. She hurls another one at the third ZOMBIE.The animated corpse is no longer animated. The Little Gardener makes more Magic Stones.
MISTYNIPtakes her Yklwa and launches it at the first ZOMBIE.All eighteen inches of the exotic weapon’s tip imbeds in the corpse’s abdomen.
The ARMY OF DARKNESS continues to be a bone wall of protection for the party.
The sixth ZOMBIE mindlessly takes the third’s gap as the HORDE OF ZOMBIES crashes into the ARMY OF DARKNESS.The Bone Wall holds.
(Everybody is up through Round Two and around again to through the AoD’s Round Three.)
REYA talks softly up to her rider, "No Lady Rosebud. Your warmth and good heart have brought me joy. My archery talent has always been abysmal." And just as she says this the crossbow bolt glances harmless off the ceiling. REYA shrugs and loads another bolt.
Rosebudlets loose a rather indignant snort at Reya'sstatement. "If you think I am a Lady, it is clear you need your eyes checked. That might help your shooting, as well." She giggles slightly as she casually throws a stone over her shoulder towards the Zombies, letting the magic do the work (attack 14, damage 4). "Sorry, that was showing off." (2 stones available)
"You're clearly not a Lady, Rosebud!" Khessa smiles, borrowing another stone and repeating the tactic that, so far, seems to be paying off "You're so much more... you're a wild kick4ss force of nature! Who wants a Lady, when we have you?"
The blonde arcane warrior takes aim at the new zombie everyone is focusing on [[ OOC: Zombie 1, I think ]].

Rosalinewill go ahead and keep chucking javelins at the zombies for now, prioritizing whichever one looks like it's closest to keeling over.
Javelin vs. Zombie Attack: 17; Damage: 8 (piercing)
"I desperately need to get a bow," she mutters under her breath as she notes that she is currently down to 2 javelins. At least she'll be able to pick them up again after the fighting is done.

Elias, rather surprised that actually hit, tries to play it off, once more just to show it wasn't luck? he lets another one fly, to hit for a whopping 1 pt of damage.
Mistynip grabs one of the extra spears the party had picked up and starts attacking over the shoulder of the skeleton in front of her, taking advantage of its reach, 11 to hit for 8 pts of damage. This may take some getting used to, it's been a long time since I had a formation tactics exercise.
