“You have chosen the wrong one to accuse...” Susanne smiles at Maruk, “I’m sure our captain here would never believe a Paladin of Tyr was lying, let alone dishing out justice to those who do not deserve it.....”
Strife, both attacks hit and Narry now appears bloodied.
Cpt. Red Skies will rush Maruk and fight alongside Lady Susanne. The Cpt. will use her multiattack to make three rapier attacks against Maruk. He deflects the first with the haft of his mace but the second and third connect for 13 points of damage.
Lady Susanne, you follow up the Captain's flurry of blows with a slash of your own. The exhausted Half-Orc sees the blow coming and tries in vain to bring his mace back around. Your blade cleaves through his arm and into his neck. Both arm and mace drop to the deck, soon followed by Maruk's twitching and gasping body. The Cpt. yells to you "Go below and check on the rest of the crew, they should be locked in the kitchen. After that, make the call to man your posts! I'll help take care of our other traitor!" and she hurries off in the direction of Strife and Narry.
Strife, you're focused on the woman trying to kill you and though you do see a commotion in the back of the room, you haven't registered the Captain's presence.
Lady Susanne hearing the captain rushes below to free the rest of the crew locked in the kitchen. “Captain said man your posts!!!” She yells at them and continues to yell as she makes her way to her station at the cannons and begins swabbing them out then loading them so they will be ready to fire.
Seldor, you run over and cut Narry down before she even know what hit her. You hear Lady Susanne yell for everyone to man their posts and see her begin swabbing and loading a cannon. You immediately run over and begin running through the steps that the now dead Narry and Maruk taught you. The irony is not lost on you and you chuckle as you ram the swab into the barrel of the cannon.
Seldor and Lady Susanne, you're both manning the cannons while Strife and Agamemnon help. On the Misty Matron's turn, all four of you will make an attack roll using 1d20. Lady Susanne and Seldor have a +2 bonus to attacks made with the cannons due to their time learning how to use them. On a hit you'll do 5d6 damage. At a range of 0-3 squares you'll each have a bonus of +4 to attack. At 4-6 squares,+2. At 7-9 squares, +0. Any range beyond 9 squares incurs a -2 to attack rolls. I'll let you know what bonus you'll have when I post each map.
Vappa, you see the Cpt. on deck below and she shouts to you "You're in charge of navigation! You tell me where to go and I'll steer! We can't outrun the smaller ones so we've gotta sink 'em!" and she takes her place at the helm of the ship. You see three smaller ships and one larger ship behind them. Each square is 50ft and the Misty Matron has 250ft of movement. For clarification, you'll say what square you want the middle of the ship to end on and I'll orient it for the best possible shot. The smaller ships don't appear to be equipped with cannons, but you see crewmen aboard them with heavy crossbows. The crossbows have ropes attached to the bolts and the ships each have four anchors. Cpt. Red Skies shouts "They're going to try and grapple us and drop anchor! Don't let them get close to us or we'll be a sitting duck for that larger ship!" If the smaller ships get within two squares of the Misty Matron, they will attempt to grapple her.
Vappa, it's the Misty Matron's turn. Where would you like to move to? You have 5 squares of movement. Count from the middle square of the Misty Matron.
Seldor, Lady Susanne, Strife, and Agamemnon, once Vappa moves the ship I'll post an updated map and you'll be able to make your attacks.
Vappa gives a quick bow to the captain before turning his attention back to the seas. Well, this is nothing like the swamp, but his orders are clear. After a quick gaze through the spyglass, Vappa will shout for the captain to move to 3F.
The ship moves to square F3 and turns to bring all four cannons on its starboard side to bear.
Seldor, Lady Susanne, Agamemnon, and Strife, you have -2 to your attack rolls against all three of the ships at the moment. Seldor and Lady Susanne, this basically negates the +2 bonus you earned from your experience the past few days. All four of you can now make your attack rolls.
Strife, you can certainly try to hit an enemy ship with your fire based attacks. Each square is 50ft, so they're out of range at the moment.
Strife would place put his daggers away and once the cannon was loaded, he would point his finger at the base of the cannon. In the blink of an eye fire would erupt from the end of the kobolds hand and set off the cannon, sending a cannon ball screaming towards the green ship

Lady Susanne, hoping to end this swings her sword once more....

Seldor rushes over and stabs Narry twice.

(so firebolt has 120 ft range and ignites anything it hits and those boats are big targets... Could I try to ignite the boats at all?)

(real bad)
Lady Susanne fires her cannon...
Attack: 6 Damage: 20
Immediatly after she starts swabbing out the residue and reloading for the next shot.
Lady Susanne, I forgot to mention this, but which ship are you aiming for?
All, let me know which ship you're trying to hit as well. Either Green, Blue, or Orange.
I'll shoot for Green.

I was aiming at green.
(I was aiming at green but with that shot it may have hit the blue one? :D)
