"... It seems we have different ideas of what constitutes a ranged weapon."
Ithy moves up and listens at the door (Take 10, +3).

You hear what seems to be a single voice, giving an apparent sermon. However, you can't make out any distinct words. It does seem to be Draconic, though.

Ari opens the door, giving it a small slam to unstick it, revealing seven kobolds bowing before an eighth, evidently in a religious ceremony. Around the center of the room is a dais, upon which stands the eighth. Another shrine to Tarulk sits in the room, and to the south, there's tunnel leading out Culpa fires his sling, aiming for the evident leader, burying the bullet into its temple, and it falls to the ground, dead. Osirio nocks an arrow, letting it loose at the leader too, though the arrow goes amiss.

Kobolds Surprise round

[Harbingerjm]

Spot check on the remaining kobolds.

[GiglameshDespair]

Charge and crush the nearest kobold!

((If I charge, I'll need everyone else to charge as well in their move after the surprise round. Or I'll get mobbed. ))

[lawastooshort]

Start mumbling a chant to Inspire Courage and then charge and crush the next nearest kobold!

[Dwarmin]

"Hsst! *Ei syral car tal cor ei shaes..." Osirio swore, letting his bow drop to the ground.

"I am the one coming upon your left, My Ava!" He said, hoping she wouldn't backhand him into oblivion. The woman was no battlerager, but she didn't know how to fight as part of a team yet.

Action: Drop my bow and draw my Gusiarme along with my move action, as I move forward to hit Ava's target, or whichever I can. Stay at her side, though, and AoO anyone I can.

Attack: +3 to-hit, 2d4+3 damage


*A thousand rats can kill even a bear...

[Nerjin]

"Well this is going well already." Culpa mumbled to himself as he ran forward roughly 30 feet "You have no chance! You should flee!" and with that he cast his remaining miracle of the day.

Move towards the Kobold six spaces and cast Bane (DC: 14 Will Negates) (-1 Attack rolls. -1 Penalty to Saving throws vs fear)

[flame99]

Spot check on the remaining kobolds.

They are indeed kobolds, and there wouldn't be too much spectacular that you can see. No hidden 'bolds, no hidden weapons, no apparent traps...

Charge and crush the nearest kobold!

((If I charge, I'll need everyone else to charge as well in their move after the surprise round. Or I'll get mobbed. ))

The nearest kobold is charged and promptly crushed, with yet another explosion of blood. One makes a stab at you while you run past, though doesn't come anywhere near you.

Start mumbling a chant to Inspire Courage and then charge and crush the next nearest kobold!

Start mumbling a chant to Inspire Courage and then charge and crush the next nearest kobold!

You mumble the story of Finneaus the Rat-Slayer. It's a rousing epic about Finneaus's exploits in rats and the slaying thereof. You leave out the last few stanzas which detail his gruesome death at the hand of a rat swarm. Not great for morale, that.
The chant begun, you run to Ava's aid, though you don't quite make it.

"Well this is going well already." Culpa mumbled to himself as he ran forward roughly 30 feet "You have no chance! You should flee!" and with that he cast his remaining miracle of the day.

You approach the 'bolds, and attempt to intimidate them, weaving a bit of divine magic into your words. The targeted bold  doesn't resist the spell, and finds himself shaken up.

"Hsst! *Ei syral car tal cor ei shaes..." Osirio swore, letting his bow drop to the ground.

"I am the one coming upon your left, My Ava!" He said, hoping she wouldn't backhand him into oblivion. The woman was no battlerager, but she didn't know how to fight as part of a team yet.

Attack: +3 to-hit, 2d4+3 damage


*A thousand rats can kill even a bear...

You drop your bow, and draw your guisarme instead. You don't come close enough to hit any kobolds, but you're threatening a large area, and you  stand a decent chance of killing anything that draws near.

[Harbingerjm]

Move 1 square North, 3 squares East, 1 square South-East, 3 squares East (40 feet total).

"Plans! So useful!"

[GiglameshDespair]

Crush, crush, crush the kobold, violently into mush!

Come and die, rat dragons. My hammer hungers! Ava snarled, the fine red mist of kobold contrasted against the blue stone of her armour.

[lawastooshort]

"Mumble mumble plans? Mumble!"

Move North, North-East, East East, smack kobold in face! Keep chanting!

[flame99]

"Plans! So useful!"

Ithy moves into position.

The kobolds begin to act; One skirts around the party member's reach and slips through the door to the south, closing it behind him. It seems to be made much better than the previous one. It's still not terribly sturdy looking, but the wood is only mildly rotten, and a few bands of dull, rusted iron reinforce it. You hear a thud behind it that can only be the barricading of the door. Another runs to the backside of Ava, skewering the flanked giant, though the hastened attack doesn't hit with much force [1 DAMAGE]. The one across from Ava tries to take advantage of her momentary wince, but his spear tip finds only stone.
Another runs around the 'bolds attacking Ava, and instead goes for Ari Cole. Osirio thrusts his guisarme, but the kobold anticipates it, and dodges easily. However, Ari manages to duck out of danger as well, as the stab sails over his head. Another makes a similar move, though targeting Ithy instead, and finds more success, though it's still only a small gash [1 DAMAGE]
For lack of a better target, the final 'bold joins the attack on Ava, though the only effect is slightly scuffing a few scales.

Crush, crush, crush the kobold, violently into mush!

Come and die, rat dragons. My hammer hungers! Ava snarled, the fine red mist of kobold contrasted against the blue stone of her armour.

The rat-dragon's pitiful attempts at a slaughter are over. Now it's time to begin the real one.
Ava hefts her maul over her head, and with a blood-thirsty grin, taunts the cowering beast. The beast, however, comes to his senses, and not an instant too soon. A large portion of the tail is sheared off, but the kobold itself comes off fine.

"Mumble mumble plans? Mumble!"

Move North, North-East, East East, smack kobold in face! Keep chanting!

Unfortunately, you can't go there because a kobold is already there. You content yourself with pulping him instead. His death is far less impressive than the others, though no less brutal. He survives the initial bludgeoning, if barely, but a quick kick to the head dispatches the creature.

Sling at the northernmost kobold.

[GiglameshDespair]

Ah...

Ava felt the warmth of blood bloom from the backstab. It had gone in at an angle, avoiding the tower shield strapped to her back.

<You stabbed...> she growled in Giant.

She growled, but managed to keep her temper. Beneath the scarf, her teeth bared themselves in a grimace, but they slowly settled back into the normal emotionless mask.

Kill!

[Dwarmin]

Action: Move forward and poke the Kobold to the North of Ava, or South if it is dead.

[flame99]

Sling at the northernmost kobold.

You try to fire a sling bullet at a kobold, but you release at the wrong time, and it sails to the north instead.

Action: Move forward and poke the Kobold to the North of Ava, or South if it is dead.

You step a few feet to the east, and using the momentum, thrust the polearm deep into the 'bold north of Ava. The blow strikes deep, skewering it's heart. In a moment of fury, you drag it up, carving more still of the 'bold. Finally, you yank the guisarme back, allowing the mutilated corpse to rest.
