I mean, you did just through how many ST22 grapplers at a 140 point party of four?

They only grapple if they hit with a skill-12 Reach C attack first. And they are hardly as tough as frontline fighters should be.

Anyway, does Cleave try to break the grapples this turn?

Sure, why not... success by 0. He fails.



I mean, the point is to distract the ants, keep them chewing on a disposable minion with 6 DR, and keep them in the stone rain.



Cleave is doing a fine job.

[vicious Violence]

Vic performs a feverish parry (success 12/rolled 11) and parries the enemy attack,
dealing 10 damage total after defense (rolled 7 damage-2DR *2) to the enemy's pincers.
Rolled ht+3 for the ant, it succeeded (8)
the pincer is crippled.

TURN 5

The 7 remaining bugs keep up the attack as one bug lies too hurt on the ground.
The three bugs chewing on Cleave are ineffectual.

Three bugs try to attack Telrith, one misses as the other two close in...
(OC: Attack rolls; 11, 12, 13. Telrith, roll Defense.)

the ants below 0 HP need to make a HT roll every turn or go unconscious if they take maneuvers other than do nothing. I rolled for the two that are below on cleave and one of them failed (not that it changes anything until all three ants are off of cleave).


Telrith picked up another ant attacking him... grrr. He retreats and blocks. How much space to backup does he still have? he's quite a ways from cleave now, and moving towards the rest of the group...


He'll take another wack at that ant with 6 HP ... but the ant dodges.


EDIT: stone rain damage. one ant below 0HP takes nothing, the other two below 0 HP take two damage each. The one with 9 HP left takes 5 damage. It makes its knockdown roll... stupid HPT!


Cleave will attempt to break free. He looses the quick contest by 11. But they are loosing HP and cleave is not.

2 yards of space left.

Bain will wait for his friends to stand up and move, then he will attack the ants with the least punishing blast radius.

[PumpkinLorica]

Gathika stands up (step) and moves away from the ants as much as she may.

[vicious Violence]

Vic also stands up and walks away as far as he can(5) and faces the rest of the ants.
