I shoot the head thief in the face.

Unless this is the kind of game where negotiation is possible. If negotiation is possible, I instead attempt to quickly tell the head thief that we need help getting to the Earl's castle, and that he and his men will be repaid handsomely for any help they offer. Crimes of his in the past will likely be pardoned. He will get all dem castle bitches. Is he in it for the bitches? He is in it for the bitches. I can tell.

No, I just shoot him in the face.

Shoot Thief 1. We can't let him get away, because he might show up with backup.

Captain Inaluct hisses; "Sergeant Rick, shoot him. The rest of you, get the one who hit Cheeetar."

"Well, we can interrogate the head thief for information of where the castle is. For the rest, I don't think we have a use."
I finish off one of the two lesser thieves. Preferably thief 2.

Protip - Armor
Armor protects certain areas of your body. Different materials protect better.

Steel - 5-10 damage
Iron - 2-7 damage
Copper - 1-5 damage
Bone - 1-3 damage
Leather - 1-2 damage
Wood - 1 damage

Plate - torso (+2 damage resistance)
Chain - torso (+1 damage resistance)
GM's Note: If either of these are made of leather, wood, etc, they count as breastplates instead of plate or chainmail. No extra damage resistance.
Helm - head
Leggings - legs
High boots - legs
Low boots - feet
Gauntlet - hands
Greaves - arms
I notice that everyone has shields, but no one uses them, nor are they on the list. Is that more than a coincidence? or should the use of shields be specified somehow?
for my action:
Aywanez attmepts to tackle thief1 and prevent his escape from the field of battle.

I shoot thief 1, as per the captain's orders. He's already on the ground from my first shot, so hopefully I won't miss.

Yeah, I haven't quite figured out how to work them in yet.

Greaves - arms
Wait, what?

Captain Inaluct walks over to the fallen Head Thief and nudges his unconscious body with his foot. "We'll need to decide who gets what from these bastard's equipment. I propose that we don't claim single ownership of anything, but group ownership. For now, I think I should wear the steel plate, as I seem to be the most injured one of us who is taking part in combat. Do any of you men have any specific requests as to how we should distribute the enemy gear for now? It would probably be a good idea to interrogate one of these thieves for the location of the castle."

"I could use that copper shield, captain. I think we should interrogate the leader, and mercy kill the other thief."
