Round 4
Reinforcements
Water demon halberdiers arrive in the harbour, led by Fishstache's son Fat Olaf.
The Draklon elite reaches the battlefield - a matriarch sorceress with a champion and a group of slayers mounted on dragons or riding chariots.
Kath'os - Zahru II
"It's shameful how you call yourselves true warriors yet choose to side with a coward like Cales," Kath'os mocks the water demons.
"I'll send you back to the murky depths where you belong, for the glory of the Bull God!" Kath'os shouts, slashing Fishstache, who fails to parry. A critically successful feat allows Kath'os to add an extra die to his damage roll, which gives him the edge he needs to kill Fishstache.
Andelmere Guard - Brikguy0410
Sarga starts coughing violently.
Then he leaps down the ladder and cuts down a swordsman that was waiting below.
The officer who made it onto the wall is cut down by combined attacks.
The guardsmen start climbing down the wall.
Bloodknights keep heading down from the keep.
The halberdiers and final bloodknight change their minds and start heading outside. Guardsmen at the harbour accomplish nothing.
Purple Mages - Silent_Sigfig
The mages get exactly the same rolls as the last round, which is not very good.
Then they take cover in the alchemist's workshop.
Scallywags - Zupponn
Slimy Pete tries to expose the water demon to his bad breath.
The feat fails and Slimy Pete gets slashed (-1 HP).
The struggle continues.
Haircules rips off the cell door, turning it into a large weapon that may also function as a shield in cc.
He beats a heavy swordsman on the head with it, but the tough water demon stands his ground. The scallywag guarding the prison again fired, and again didn't do enough damage.
Citizens - Alex
Laris: "People of Andelmere, stop this! This is silly!"
Nobleman: "Hmm, he does have a point."
Geisha: "Couldn't you have realized that like a few seconds ago, you jackass?"
The citizens rejoin the defense of the city and head towards the harbour.
The beggar girl even manages to backstab the Technoviking.
"Light, cleanse the faithful of all bodily harm."
For a moment Sarga basks in the light. It heals him and also makes his face look really weird there for a second.
The chicken critically infects an imperial guard with the bird flu, killing him instantly.
Urban Guard - lawmaster
"You won't get away with this," Sir Jason promises the mages. They quickly shut the door, but Jason isn't about to let something like that stop him.
*crash* "HERE'S JASON!"
He then throws his sword through the first mage.
Water Demons - lordintype
Psycho Dad shoots Haircules in the back, but it takes more than that to bring Haircules down.
One heavy swordsman attacks Kath'os, to no avail.
Then Fishstache and a halberdier move in however, and even though Kath'os parries with the Excalibull they deal terrible terrible damage and bring Kath'os down to 1 HP.
A guardsman is dispatched.
The halberdiers spread out and move into the city.
Peasants - Kommander Ken
A goat is dropped on a demonspawn's face, damaging him.
The peasants keep firing, harming another.
A shot from above killed the demonspawn that got hit by the goat earlier.
The kid tries to finish a demonspawn, but that doesn't end well for him.
This peasant heads down but since he can't get a clear line of sight he sets up some response fire.
The elder swings himself from the ladder, hits the hay bale...
... grabs onto the side of the wall and swings himself around, aiming his pitchfork straight into the wounded demonspawn, which finishes him off!
The force of the blow knocks the creature into its allies, sending them flying back (critically successful feat!).
Imperial guard - Scratch
With terrible, terrible damage (37!), the crossbowmen put down Sarga.
Soldiers try to finish off the KotR. Sir Jarvis takes a hit (-1 HP).
Another soldier reaches the walls.
Malagram challenges Sir Alamar, so far the most incompetent minifig ever.
The duel goes back and forth for a while...
When Malagram tries to reach for a gun! This ends badly for him as Alamar slashes his back (-1 HP, failed feat).
Spearmen rejoin the action.
Draklon Raiders - Battlegrinder (NPC'd, I didn't receive orders)
Skirmishers push the damaged gate open. The chicken is hacked into feathery bits. The other simply advance.
Knights of the Realm - Silverdream (NPC'd as well)
The knights of the realm fumble their attack rolls, naturally, when Sir Alamar rises to the challenge of attempting a feat.
"Lord Malagram, I hereby execute you for treason." (critically successful feat
