Lanith lunges at the grassrunner with the pitchfork. She doesn't attempt to strike the grassrunner and opts to instead attack the air right next to the grassrunner. Decoy attack the grassrunner with the pitchfork.
The grassrunner moves to block your wide shot with his pitchfork, leaving him open to the next attack!
well blast. okay. this is such a bad option...
Lysia moves forward into the front line, and then fires upon the grassrunner with the pitchfork
~I'm not gonna let them stab you Lanith.~
Which is this one! Thanks to the aforementioned support the arrow jabs straight through his hand, pinning it to the pitchfork. Pitchfork Grassrunner is at 11/20 HP.
~Guys, although we're pretty sure they're bandit troupers, why do they have a scythe, a pitchfork and a threshing flail? Pretty sure those aren't wielded by bandits!~
Your words are ignored! Possibly because they're just unintelligible growling to half of your squad.
Seeing the vulnerable Lysia move up Van envelopes her in the same protective layer of spirit it had granted the nightmare earlier. Van casts protection on Lysia. (-1 to damage received)
You protect the frontline archer! With a respectable defense at least she won't get hit too hard when she inevitably gets hit.
Flail at the flailing grassrunner.
Only I get to use a flail!
Your quest to be the only flailer in the immediate vicinity is foiled with the grassrunner jumps into the tall grass as you charge, leaving you flailing at grain like some peasant. Your mount takes the initiative to swipe at them, detecting the target successfully with her nose and landing a hit across their back. Flail Grassrunner is at 12/20 HP.
Cast Solid Bullet (-1 MP) on Matchlock and shoot the Grassrunner with the knife
"It's very knife to meet you all at this lonely path, eh? "
You assault the knife wielder with the most powerful weapon at your disposal! You also shoot them. At first it seems to be a solid hit to the head, but upon further reflection you only added to the countless holes in the poor target's hat.
(+50 EXP for Double 1s on the Power Table. Congratulations?)
I kick the nearest one in the head twice, mana striking on my first one.
"We should give them the boot, unless it's shoe hard to fight them because they have no soles."
Providing a possibly worse pun, you strike at the scythe user! She blocks the first strike but is hit in the leg by the non-magic followup, leaving her leg bending at a weird angle. Scythe Runner is at 11/20.
ENEMY TURN
The fighters change strategies, entering 1v1 duels with the people currently attacking them personally out of self preservation.
With its newly attached pitchfork, the first grassrunner attempts to jab Lysia but manages to miss the easy to jab target shaming his entire party.
Flailrunner strikes back at Ethan, proving to be the better flailman by landing a solid hit against his armor. It rattles him a bit and makes a resounding sound irritating to all large furry ears in the vicinity. Ethan is at 15/18 HP.
Scytherunner strikes at the nightmare, with poor form on account of her newly acquire disability. The strike misses.
Kniferunner stabs at Jerick, missing the plausibly seasoned warrior by some large margin.
Not to feel left out in the same weapon competition, the hunting bow runner shoots Lysia successfully. The arrow sticks into the leather armor by her left ribs. Lysia is at 15/22 HP.
Probably assuming she is feeling left out, a stone is tossed at Lanith with deadly precision. Deadly for the thrower at least because it missed. Her defenses are really high.
PLAYER TURN!
