Oh and Sha'kar continue their assault on the Ancient.

Attack: 24 Damage: 11 + 8 fire damage and splash 7 fire damage to the most damaged adjacent drone.

Autonomous Materials: (Round 5)

(TL;DR)

**Battlefield 1: Fighting Grounds**

Sha'kar 2, Nock 3, Swigg 1, Gin 2, Lumimar 3, Xeno 3, Glacia 6, Grianne 1, Tolwar 3

Ancient1, D7 6, T1, T2 1, T4 1, T5 1

-Allies-

Nock, aided by the target painting protocol, delivers a devastating blow.

Tolwar's defender is able to protect Lumimar. He bangs his weapon against the ancient casing and the defender sinks it's teeth in.

Xeno strikes and the attack lands with a thunderous crack. (Eldin is in the other battlefield, if Butter's moves there he will not be able to act this round.)

The Ancient Construct starts to vibrate and glow with a white light before it burst into a shower of gears and debris. One of the Ancient Constructs has been defeated! 

Grianne looses her grip on the huge foe as she turns back into an elf. She fills the zone with dense fog and turns back into a snake, but she can sense the creature looking directly at her.

Glacia takes on the form of a powerful beast.

Swigg tries to avoid taking damage (but I don't think he can see...)

Sha'kar goes to strike, but his target has fallen. He instead moves to destroy the drone remaining in zone 2.

-Enemies-

The Ancient in Zone 1, apparently unaffected by the dense fog attacks Grianne again, slamming 17 for 10, and 11 for 9 blunt damage.

Duo7 redoubles it's efforts against Glacia, hitting AC 9 for 7, and 18 for 4 piercing.

The first Tridrone continues to target Swigg. Unaffected by the illusory fog, it takes the advantage, hitting AC 13(adv.20) for 5, 11(adv.16) for 4, and 6(adv.15) for 5 piercing.

The second Tridrone tries to take out Grianne, hitting AC 10 for 4, 17 for 5, and 8 for 3 piercing.

The last Tridrone moves on Swigg aldo. It strikes, hitting AC 10(adv.12) for 4, 15(adv.20) for 3, and 15(adv.19) for 5 piercing.

The remaining Ancient opens a compartment to release another enemy onto the battlefield... (Ancient1: 5. On a 5 or 6 a Tridrone enters the battle in the same Zone.)

Damage: Ancient1: 33, Ancient2: dead, D10: dead, D3: dead, D6: dead, D9: dead, D8: dead, D4: dead, D5: dead, T3: dead

-Allies-

Eldin's hellish demon blood, splashed the drone commander. (DC 13 Dex: 3) as he makes a poorly aimed strike with his sword.

Ori'ck takes the opening to deliver two powerful enraged strikes, but the tough commander still stands.

Dreadwood moves to Olly's aid, fighting and healing as he approaches. (DC 14 Wis: 6)

Olly smashes the same drone Dreadwood targeted before she attempts her escape. (Sorry, I didn't update their positions)

Koplony casts a gout of flames into the next zone and it bounces off one of the drones.

Blank dispatched a drone and moves toward the mid field.

-Enemies-

Mono1 takes its opportunity against Olly, hitting AC 17 for 2 piercing.

Mono7 swipes at Olly also as she flees, hitting AC 20 for 4 piercing.

The Pentadrone continues its attack against Eldin, spinning to hit AC 5 for 5, 22 for 4, 12 for 7, 24 for 6, and 7 for 5 piercing.

Mono1 turns to Dreadwood as he approaches, hitting AC 21 for 7 piercing.

Duo6 abandons Zuphan's unmoving, limp body (maybe, his character sheet is 404'd now) It moves toward the mid field, into Zone 6, and throws it's weapons at Ori'ck who struck the commander, hitting AC 12 for 7, and 8 for 4 piercing.

Mono7 faces Dreadwood and strikes, hitting AC 8 for 7, piercing.

Duo10 continues to attack Dorkas who appears stunned by the chaos around him. It hits AC 20 for 5, and 10 for 2 piercing.

Mono13 (if it survived) stabs at Blank, hitting AC 13 for 6 piercing.

Duo14 turns to Ori'ck who has badly damaged the commander and strikes, hitting AC 13 for 6, and 11 for 4 piercing.

Duo16 continues its attack on Eldin, hitting AC 11 for 5, and 8 for 5 piercing.

Mono19 strikes against Dreadwood, hitting AC 16 for 7 piercing.

Mono23 tries to finish off Dorkas, hitting AC 18 for 3 piercing.

The Pentadrone uses a small handheld device, trying again to summon an ally... (3 on a 5 or 6) a Tridrone appears in Zone 1!

Damage: D24: dead, M21: dead, M3: dead, D20: dead, M11: dead, M15: dead, D2: dead, D12: dead, M9: dead, M5: 3, D16: 3, Q1: dead, D10: 10, D12: dead, D4: dead, P1: 32/50

Before that Blank tries to drag the nearest drone into the blades, dealing 8 damage now and 11 slashing on its turn. If it falls he moves into Zone 3 (Athletics: 29, contest 9)

Conc. Save for Mantle of Faith(DC 10): 20.

"Ouch... I actually felt that one." Dreadwood said while absently deflecting another Monodrone's strike. "For that-..." He draws his Yklwa. "I will endeavor to answer in kind as best I can." He states as a point is driven home. After he looks to a bleeding Olly, the living construct slowly shook his head, but still threw out another healing word her way.

Action: Yklwa a Mono-fool!
Attack: 26 Damage: 15 non-magical piercing Monodrone(1).

Bonus Action: Cast (1st level)Rise on Olly, restoring 7 HP.

Eldin Concentration check: 10

Eldin loses concentration on his shield of Faith with the critical hit. Taking a moment to process the situation. He Disengages and maneuvers around in Zone 6 to line up his targets and then he throws his Javelin of Lighting at the Tridrone in Zone 1. The javelin turns into a bolt of lighting streaking through the Duodrone that attacked Eldin and the Pentadrone.

Javelin of Lightning Vs Tridrone: 13 (If disadvantage: 26) Dmg: 9 Pierce + 8 Lightning.

Duo16 and Pentadrone takes 14 Lightning damage. DEX13 for half.

Kulum dashes to zone 1 to face the ancient, and assaults the machine with his halberd(action surge).

Attack: 10 Damage: 11 

Attack: 24 Damage: 10 

Attack: 9 Damage: 6

Kulum applies his unwavering mark if it hits.

An Olly with less spring in her step, but much fury in her heart somehow skips along to another zone.

"Oi! Now's not the time to Take Five, elfie-man! It's only a scratch!"

Following such words of encouragement, she swings for the Duodrone assaulting Dorkas before focusing on the Monodrones.

Movement: Hippity Hop to Zone10.

Bonus Action: Cast Take Five on Dorkas at 2nd level to restore 9 HP.

Action: Judgement of La Princesa!
Attack: 21 Damage: 10 magical bludgeoning to Duo10 in Zone10.

In that case, Butters will spend his action to dash if need be and move to Zone1 with Grianne last round.

Xeno would have to put away the staff to do it. But once in position, the bass is dropped upon the ancient while Kenny fires upon the tridrone assaulting Swigg and Butters tries to help Grianne.

Zone 4

Ma: Move to Zone 4 if hadn't already.

Ac: Cast Drop Da Bass upon Ancient1
Inflict 10 (if injured: 12) Necrotic Damage. Wisdom Save 14 for no damage.

Ba: Command Kenny to finish moving to Zone4 and fire upon Tridrone attacking Swigg.
Attack: 26 Damage: 21 Force. 

Butter helpls Grianne attack on Ancient 1.

Nock will charge towards Ancient 1, if he can make it.  He continues his pattern of brutal assault.

Attack: 15(19 if faerie fire)(3 bless)

Damage: 22 bludgeoning, 6 radiant, 5 fire.  An enemy near the ancient takes 11 fire damage.

Koplony remains in zone 23 and casts Fire Bolt at Duodrone10 in zone 10.

Attack: 16 Damage: 6 fire damage.

Glacia uses her hooves to bludgeon Duo7. 

Attack:15 Damage: 12

Ori'ck lets out a blood curdling laugh as the tiny automatons attempt to cut into his back, most only leaving small superficial scratches (took a total of 8 damage last round, reduced to 4 from rage) and brings his massive maul down on the pentadrone once more (if the pentadrone falls he will first try to grab the summoning object the pentadrone has been using, or redirect his attacks to any available enemies. Attack 1: 10 to hit doing 11 , attack 2: 6 to hit doing 11 )

Watching with satisfaction as the ancient falls,  Tolwar allows the Target Painting Protocol to end.

He and his defender take half hearted swipes at the remaining drone before heading into Zone 2 on their way to the other Ancient. 

Tolwar Warhammer Attack: 24 Damage: 12

Steel Defender Force-Empowered Rend Attack: Attack: 15 Damage: 9

(The spell fog cloud is not an illusion. Its real fog. Grianne is controlling the weather with that spell, its also in the conjuration school which is the last point in my argument there.)

Swigg fingers will smoothly land on a power chord casting thunderclap 6

Blank moves closer, stepping into Zone and casts his spell of whirling blades over Duo14 ahead, dealing 7 slashing at the start of it's turn.

Autonomous Materials: (Round 6)

Ancient1, D7 6, T1, T2 1, T4 1

-Allies-

Kulum streaks into the center of the fray and delivers a series of blows to the remaining Ancient.

Xeno let's the bass toll, as the battlefield becomes crowded around the mid field. (DC 14 Wis: 21) Meanwhile, Butters and Kenny move in.

Nock cannot reach the Ancient without Dashing.

Glacia kicks the last remaining Duodrone, but isn't able to hit solidly enough to do any real damage.

Tolwar won't be able to reach the last drone without Dashing.

Swigg lets out a burst of Thunder hitting everyone in his reach (which I should more clearly define for purposes of spells like this... I'll leave it to Swigg. Does this reach the Ancient, Tri2, and allies (all or none)? DC 14 Con, T1: 10, T4: 18. I concede your point, Truesight does not penetrate fog as Tremorsense does, however you must be able to see the source of attacks to dodge them. That said one may end concentration at will any time, if it is not lost by force.)

Grianne tries to focus (DC 10 Con: 19, 7, 8) and the fog dissipates before there was ever any reason to discuss it =P

-Enemies-

The Ancient in Zone 1, turns its head sharply toward Xeno but strikes again at Grianne, slamming 14 for 6, and 17 for 11 blunt damage.

Duo7 retaliates again against Glacia, hitting AC 17 for 5, and 21 for 4 piercing.

The first Tridrone continues to target Swigg as new targets approach, it hits AC 6 for 5, 10 for 7, and 14 for 7 piercing.

The second Tridrone seems oblivious to the encroaching foes, it targets Grianne, hitting AC 8 for 3, 5 for 7, and 12 for 2 piercing.

The last Tridrone continues to attack Swigg, hitting AC 5 for 3, 5 for 5, and 13 for 3 piercing.

The remaining Ancient opens a compartment to release another enemy onto the battlefield... (Ancient1: 2. On a 5 or 6 a Tridrone enters the battle in the same Zone.)

Damage: Ancient1: 46, Ancient2: dead, D10: dead, D3: dead, D6: dead, D9: dead, D8: dead, D4: dead, D5: dead, T3: dead, T4: 7?

Dreadwood takes a hit, but carries on striking down another drone.

Eldin loses focus, but retaliates ferociously, taking down the Tridrone, which crumbles into scrap before it even acted. The bolt of lightning trailing the attack streaks through the Pentadrone giving it a jolt as well. (DC 13 Dex: 17) (I'll give you two foes of your choice only in a line from the position of your choice.)

Olly limps into the fray again, finishing off the damaged drone just after it manages to take down Dorkas.

Koplony throws another burst in to help her but the remaining drones are able to take cover.

Ori'ck tries to take down the leader... And succeeds! The Pentadrone tips back and falls over exploding into a pile of useless metal scraps, along with any equipment it was carrying. Though the commander has fallen and self destructed the remaining drones will not faulter from their mission.

Blank hurls an invisible dagger into a drone ripping it to shreds.

-Enemies-

The Pentadrone (if it survives) turns to attack Ori'ck, spinning rapidly to hit AC 16 for 3, 20 for 8, 15 for 3, 16 for 3, and 6 for 8 piercing.

Duo6, having thrown it's payload, strikes at Eldin with its fists as he moves into reach, hitting AC 4 for 2, and 6 for 3 piercing.

Mono7 attacks Dreadwood again, hitting AC 22 for 6, piercing.

Duo14 steps out of the daggers, and continues to assault Ori'ck, hitting AC 15 for 6, and 23 for 9 piercing.

Duo16 turns to Ori'ck, striking with its sharpened sticks, and hitting AC 7 for 3, and 17 for 7 piercing.

Mono17 turns to Eldin and attacks unarmed, hitting AC 18 for 3 piercing.

Duo18 charges into Eldin to strike, though it carries no weapon, it hits AC 21 for 4, and 10 for 3 piercing.

Mono19 strikes Dreadwood again, hitting AC 16 for 3 piercing.

Mono23 turns to Olly as Dorkas falls, and attacks, hitting AC 5 for 2 piercing.

The Pentadrone if it still stsnds uses a small handheld device, trying again to summon an ally... (6 on a 5 a 6 a Tridrone appears in Zone 1)

(Nock would have indeed dashed on his last turn.)

"Insufficient compared to last one. Aim for the joints." Dreadwood explained, futile though it was, only to turn his Yklwa upon one of the Monodrones with little mercy.

Action: Yklwa a Mono-fool!
Attack: 25 Damage: 4 non-magical piercing Monodrone(7).

Eldin taking another hit, uses his last spell slot to heal himself before he raises his shield in a burst of light once again.

Action: Word of Radiance. Duo6, Mono17 and Duo18 must make CON13 or take 4 Radiant Damage.

BA: Healing Word on self: 7 HP

(Oh, I thought the drone was in Zone 3, my mistake.  No attacks last round then.)

From the fairly empty area Tolwar examines the space ahead (in Zone 1).  "Three 'allies', three enemies.  Risk assessment indicates Target Painting Protocol is appropriate."

From Zone 2 Tolwar casts another Faerie Fire into Zone 1.  Everyone in Zone 1 is entitled to a DC 13 Dex save  ( Swigg, Grianne, Kulum & enemies in Zone 1)...otherwise attacks against them are at advantage until Tolwar loses concentration or 1 minute passes.

After casting the spell, Tolwar and his Steel Defender wade into the zone with the others (move into Zone 1) and he sends the Defender in to attack the Ancient.

Attack: 20 Damage: 10

IF Ancient failed its Dex save then that attack is at advantage, so use higher of that roll or this one: 19

Steel Defender stays standing next to the ancient, If it attacks anyone except the defender he will use his reaction to impose disadvantage on the first attack.
