It is even less ugly than I am, impressive!

There is no severed head in the chest. Just a piece of paper. Maybe the stress is getting to Bain?
When Bain looks back into the chest, the severed head is gone.

"Bree-yark!"
Gotcha, stupid!

A standard taunt in Orcish, made infamous during the Long War for Hell's Throat, and the ensuing guerilla warfare.

Bain laughs in his head and whispers to his friends:

(Hahahah) Talk about "gotcha" moments! They seem to be crafty, let's be careful.

OOC: I guess we can move to the scene with the goblins playing tug of war (stealth/camo rolls already made), Bain will ready an arrow and aim to deliver a surprise attack. He asks Mihrimah to watch his back. Do we see any "magic enemies" (i.e. goblin wizards)?

The goblins seem to be completely non-magical. They completely fail to spot Bain and his hireling. The goblins continue to play while their comrade drinks his beer.

Gathika readies her sword, (following Hide's advice).
She waits for Bain's attack.

Vic is ready to attack, waiting on Bain's move

[Hide]

Taking aim for 3 seconds and standing 3 yards away from his enemies, Bain delivers an AOA double. Since the goblins playing tug of war, Bain will go for a one-shot multi-kill.

His first attack is a DWA (bow), firing two arrows at once:

Shooting 17 (15+3+3-3-1: DWA, acc, aim, vitals, range):
Hide: 3D6 → 13(6 +4 +3)

Damage: 2d6+4
Arrow 1: 2+6+4 = 12 * 3 IMP (2), 36 HP.
Arrow 2: 2+3+4 = 9 * 3 IMP (2), 27 HP.

Total injury: 63 HP.

Assuming the enemies have between 8-10 HP, per overpenetration the goblin standing right after the first target receives:

@ 8 HP: 10 points of damage.
@ 9 HP: 6 points of damage.
@ 10 HP: 4 points of damage.

Bain does not deliver the second attack; he stops at readying the bow.

(OC: The target has 12 HP. He dies, BTW.)

Bain's brutal shot from the dark murders a goblin without a prayer!
The rest of his adventuring party springs into action immediately after, taking the goblins by surprise!

(OC: Bain still has to notch an arrow to fire it next turn. Everyone roll for your action? You've achieved surprise, the enemy is mentally stunned and all of you get a free turn before combat proper starts. Move and Attack? The goblins are 3 yards from Bain, remember.)

OOC: I am posting Bain's attacks in a moment. Please assume this is as a wait until the rest of the party moves, as previously mentioned, Mihrimah stays with Bain (for now, it is a wait until it is safe for her to attack).

[vicious Violence]

Vic uses heroic charge towards the furthest alive enemy (in order to be in reach 2) and spends one fp, the first attack connects, 14 (skill level 16) and uses a thrust attack dealing up to 12 damage (imp)
