LMoP, PbP game, lobby thread...

Gudgeon is currently 100% focused on finding his cousin who he is convinced is in here and in danger.

[DavidBoren]

O0oh, yeahhh... we are looking for someone... they have a hostage(s)... my general course of action is go to Red Base, kill everyone, get the flag back... "F" knocking, kick the door, type mentality... probably shouldn't casually forget about possible hostages. Lol.

1D20+5 = [16]+5 = 21
Sneak Attack take two

Added to Pique's action in In Character thread also. Hopefully this works I was a little crestfallen with the that original roll.

[mtaylor]

Pique, you can have advantage on your sneak attack (try again, you might roll a 20) for that nat 20 stealth roll.

[mtaylor]

One dead, one wondering what the hell just happened. He doesn't seem to be immediately blaming you, that may change after he regains his sense of the world.

[Nish]

Well that escalated quickly.

So what is the situation now? 1 down or just injured? They seem to suspect me as part of the attack? How are from me are they and what are they doing?

[mtaylor]

mtaylor : About how far are we from the two Redbrands at the door?

You are about 30-40 feet. Close enough to hear.

Edit-I posted this before I looked at the in character. That escalated quickly. I'll give you guys a free action before we go into initiative order since you so cleanly dispatched the first guy.

[Nish]

If part of your plan is to make Gudgeon aware of the Redbrands patrolling he would offer to go up the road acting drunk or lost to serve as a distraction while the more stealthy members of the party snuck up and incapacitated them.

mtaylor : About how far are we from the two Redbrands at the door?

[Rainmaker]

Sorry guys, that was probably me dropping the ball. I'll post something up here in a minute. I'm envisioning going in stealthy for as long as possible and finding our way to Glass Staff.

[Nish]

As I understand it we have regrouped. Ivan is the only one that has seen the Redbrands guarding the door, Because he signaled rather than shouting and I envision him hiding behind some brush, Gudgeon is under the impression that Ivan knows something and is waiting to follow his lead.

That said I think the plan is to fight our way into the Ruined Manor.

[DavidBoren]

With the party regrouped in the forest, to what I believe is due south of the ruins, we are, what, waiting for some sort of frenzy when the advance party returns with news that the bridges are cut?

What are we waiting for, exactly?

We don't actually know how many of them went into the cave to investigate, so we can't readily see their true strength of force up in the ruins... does this matter to us?

Are we trying to keep our momentum and push with aggression?

What time is it? Are we waiting for dusk to attack?

[Nish]

Works for me

[Grendel]

That works for me.

[DavidBoren]

Bridges are cut, and I think the party is all accounted for/together.

We are sneaking straight up the hill, not taking the road... correct?
