OoC: I realized I had calculated the wrong damage for Cronk's Critical Hit last round. He was in the back row and should only have done half damage. That is fixed now. Round Five of Camp Battle Sir Leo vs. Red Snake B - Special Damage Sir Glorfindel vs. Red Snake A - Miss Cronk vs. Lizard B - Damage >Elgar vs. Lizard A - Aim Tomas vs. Green Viper B - Special Damage >Hulion vs. Green Viper A - Special Damage Red Snake B - Free hit on Sir Leo The heroes were very lucky that Sir Leo was in the sentinel position during this round. Not only did he stop both attacks on himself from Red Snake B, but also protected Cronk, Tomas and Hulion from damage. The only hero that manage to score a hit is Elgar, doing 4 damage on Lizard A. Still, all enemies remains. The enemies: Lizard A Type: Fiery Level: 8 Health: 28/50 Special: Burning Breath - The lizard's hot breath does 8 damage to all in the front row.

"That nasty rat bit me! I hope I don't catch the plague!" Maurice will attack the Kitchen Rat (White) from the front row again.

Sorry, it's not allowed to share the prices outside the LUGBULK Program. But yes, it's significantly cheaper than PaB and in most cases Bricklink too.

OoC: I always forgets that one, thanks for the heads up again!

"We better defend ourselves here, and the best defence is a good offence. I'll attack Kitchen Rat (White) from the front row." To bad he didn't had time to take that Nostrum, Maurice thought as he was advancing towards the rat. He knew the statistics weren't with him in battles...

Round Four of Camp Battle Sir Leo vs. Green Viper B - Shield (Sentinel) Sir Glorfindel vs. Red Snake B - Special Damage >Cronk vs. Lizard B - Critical Hit >Elgar vs. Lizard A - Aim Tomas vs. Red Snake A - Damage >Hulion vs. Green Viper A - Special Damage Red Snake B - Free hit on Sir Leo Sir Leo decides it's best to switch defence man next round and takes up the sentinel position. Sir Glorfindel faces Red Snake B who does a fast attack that Cronk just manage to stop. The party leader then lands a critical hit on Lizard B (35 damage). Elgar aims and hits Lizard A (4 damage) and both Tomas and Hulion get attacked by the snakes but Cronk is really good this round and protects his comrades. Even the free hit from Red Snake B is stopped by his shield. The battle takes time, but the party is starting to wear the enemy down, protected behind the broad shields of their knights.

Sir Glorfindel's critical hit is very effective against the other red snake, leaving it with only 1 health left (24 damage). Cronk continues in his sentinel position.

Sir Glorfindel misses his swing at the Red Snake A, but he manages to stop the snake's counter-attack with his shield. Cronk stays in Sentinel position and the knights protect everyone with their shields as Lizard A breaths out scalding hot air. Tomas attacks the other Green Viper and take it down to the same low health as the other (25 damage). Hulion misses his attack at the second Lizard but Sir Glorfindel and Cronk once again protects the party from the Lizard's burning breath. All enemies remains, although some quite hurt.

"Oh, thank you, thank you very much, sir! Come with me and start with knight Reckard over here, he took quite a heavy beating during the fight but managed to retreat even though his leg was broken. Great faith in that one!" The party begin to follow the cleric Hulion to the shelter but they are interrupted by a loud hissing sound from the bushes. When they turn to look, several snakes appears and with them two large and strange lizards. The creatures are very hostile and attack the party and Hulion the cleric. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

"Lord Kapriel is probably holding out the siege inside the walls of Tanco. Hopefully he hasn't got one of those ideas about "honourable sacrifices" and "great last stands" he is keen to."

Hulion gives the party a tired smile. "The reinforcements, you finally arrived! You are much needed I can tell. We had a battle a couple of days ago just outside Tanco, we all thought our forces were about to claim the victory until the mercenaries got reinforcements of their own. Our army got split, one half retreated into the town which is now besieged. The other half, of which me and my brothers here were part of, were pushed back by the enemy and took heavy losses. We got separated from the others and then made camp here to take care of the wounded. I healed as many as I could and sent them back to the front, but now I'm exhausted and have to rely on traditional care. We are just four in total left here in the camp; me, two knights named Reckard and Olfrid and old man Yom, a veteran cleric of the battalion. None of us are in fighting condition though." The party can see one of the knights in the shelter and one on a stretcher outside, the elderly man with a walking stick must be old man Yom.

The man dressed in white turns to the party: "Yes, it is. I'm Hulion, cleric of the 1st Battalion of Light and Justice, member of the Paladin Order, and this is our camp for wounded and dismissed soldiers. What are you doing in this area with your friends, eh... "Cronk" was it?" QM note: Terrible sorry for the delay. Life happened.

After some discussion the party goes left. While walking down the path the party notices how the forest becomes thinner and after a while the trees are replaced by prickly bushes. The party continues on the path that leads them through a dry plain with not much too see. But after following the path over a ridge they see a small camp ahead. What do the party wish to do?

Some of you people need to get out sit at the computer more! Yes, of course it's a spoof. The creature is a creeper from the game Minecraft. volcanicpanik was refering to a popular meme involving this guy, but I'm too tired to explain it now, consult Google. Or read Chromeknight's link, that's better.

It's much more comfortable at this time of the day and the only animals they see are some friendly squirrels and small singing birds. When they reach the place for last night's battle, it is empty and the party is free to continue on. However, just a short bit further the path splits in 2 directions. Will the party turn left or right?

The party takes look around in the village of Jernel. Most people are out in the fields so they don't find anyone to talk to. But behind one of the houses they find a rubbish heap that contains some maybe useful items: Ice bombs x2 A pointy stick (WP:1) Suitable for Knights and Mages A shovel Party leader, how will these items be distributed?

Sir Leo uses his smoke bomb and the party flees from the small but very annoying ants. THE BATTLE IS DISCONTINUED! The party retreats back to the village of Jernel and knocks on the door to the chicken farmer they talked to earlier. "Oh, hello again Sir Knights. I'm happy to see that you didn't decide to spend the night in the forest after all. Terrible creatures lurks there. Please, have a rest here in my house and continue your journey in the morning." The heroes gratefully accept and sleeps undisturbed all the night, regaining all their health thanks to their bedrolls.

Nope, still 1 less then Capt.JohnPaul's Zombie battle. My ants are stronger though. Remember, the chicken farmer warned you from going into the forest during the night.

Come on, Bricksandparts, do we really need that? Heroica is a RPG based on Quest and we have the Hall to use for in-character talk when we aren't on quests, I think that is enough.
