         [Recap]


            From Fremea: [Re: Actions]
                 Realizing that the mist is still 
whirling about her and if she dives onto the 
ship, it will also impair her shipmates; she will 
quickly drop it as she dive bombs the deck. If 
there is an open space (no allies), she will open 
up with her bow, pelting the pirates, otherwise, 
she will go in to quickly dispatch pirates from 
behind, until she can go below deck. She will 
keep up her mana sensing also, just in case 
something comes out of the hold or below decks.
                 Once the top is being taken care 
of by the rest, she will quickly go down and start to look for Arawn and Z.
            GM: Ack. Regular pelting not Archery spells then?

            From Pyan: [Re: Actions]
                 Pyan wonders what his best 
weapon is the spear Kiet gave him from Kell's 
Estate. IT does lightning, though to be honest he 
has never seen the effects of lightning close up 
except on a tree when he tried out the 
enchantment, it scared him too much to try it 
again. Then there's the fact that  He's been walk 
using ta spear since he could walk and only. pick 
up using the sword a few months ago, Though the 
party members knowledgeable in magics said that 
the sword he is using has it's magics of it own 
that help in combat but it's was all technical babel to him.
                 Pyan just hopes it's all over 
before he has to give up on his bow, he's good with arrows.
            GM: Ack. So I assume bow till arrows 
are gone.  The email I sent on the spear I didn't 
mention that its more electricity than 
lightning.  So once internal damage is done the 
additional electrical/shock is done. Hope this clarifies it.

         [New Stuff]

         [Apris 27th, 1636TH]

         [Time: 2:17:00 pm]

            As the Black Depths close the 
distance to the pirate ship Finn gives one last 
warning, “stay together and fight as a group back 
to back. These many pirates can overwhelm one if alone.”

         [Time: 2:17:51 pm]
         [Turn 35: Phase 4 - [Phase 257]]

            Kiet casts a iron skin moments before 
the ship comes along side the pirate ship.


         [Time: 2:17:54 pm]
         [Turn 36: Phase 1 - [Phase 258]]

            Corona dives down toward a clump of 
pirates and unleashes his fire eyes upon them but 
the fire dart hits the deck only singing it.

            Fremea lowers herself to the deck as 
she cancels the mist spell. She fires her first 
arrow at one random pirate but misses.

            Pyan and Mae fire their bow and 
repeating crossbow at pirates but both also miss.

            Pirate archers fire on the party as 
they break cover.  Four arrows miss but 1 hits 
Finn in the left shoulder doing 10 points of 
damage.  The last arrow hits Pyan in the right 
middle ribs just below his heart doing 2 points of damage.

            The large wolf Zol Zim doesn't wait 
he charges and leaps over the railing and lands 
next to pirate Archer #1.  The wolf bites the 
pirate in the right middle chest doing 11 points and killing the archer.

            Unali is the first to cross the 
gangplank.  With agile steps she crosses with 
ease of an expert acrobat.  She ends up right 
next to the wolf heading for the stairs.  But she 
has 2 pirates in the way.  With her left magical 
dagger she stabs pirate #7 in lower left just 
above his hip doing 11 points killing him.  For 
her right magical dagger he stabs #8 in his upper 
left leg as she ducks to avoid a swipe with sword 
the blade hits his main nerve there doing enough to kill him instantly.

            Damon's sailors rush over the 
gangplanks and target the archers as well. The 4 
sailors slash with sword and daggers but only 
Zepp hits Archer #2 doing 4 points in his left middle chest.

            Mournath crosses and helps Zepp 
stabbing Archer #2 with his spear and does the damage to kill him.

            Kiet with agile feet crosses over to 
help Unali and Pyan.  He attacks Archer #3 and 
hits with his tulwar in the pirates upper left chest doing 3 points of damage.

            Z'leyra stares through her mist and 
sees ghostly form drop her off moments ago in 
some room.  She can't tell where.  But she does 
as the mist clears and forms over and over 
notices Arawn.  He seems to be on his back with 
clearly burnt tatters of clothing.  His face is 
away from hers but it seems she can vaguely tell 
his chest is still heaving though at a slow pace.

            Raddok crosses over and also attacks 
one archer but misses with his mace.

            Barbosa crosses but his footing is 
not as graceful as others he stumbles over the 
gangplank but lurches forward and rolls onto the 
deck of the pirate ship but does not get a chance to attack anyone.

            Now all the pirates move.

            At least 4 pirates move to block any 
boarding from the south gangplank. Others move to 
protect the last archers.  While others move to 
get into better angles for fighting.

            Two pirates move to attack the wolf 
while 2 from behind the stairs area move to block 
any access to stairs and attack Unali.

            The two on the wolf one hits but his hide protects him.

            Two attacking Unali slash with sword 
and one hits doing nothing to her armor as it protects her.

            Dorhak crosses over the fore 
gangplank but his heavy armor as well as less 
than agile body frame forces him to wobble a 
bit.  He slips and almost falls off to the water 
between the two ships.  As the ships move to and 
fro he could be crushed. But instead he falls 
face forward on the gangplank almost losing his 
shield.  Those nearby hear great dwarven 
curses.  Finn said this would be swashbuckling – indeed!

            Mae figures she has one more shot 
before reloading but giggles as Dorhak falls.

            Ix crosses over and Helps Dorhak to 
his feet as he grumbles being helped b ya blind woman!

            Unali notices two tiny black forms 
exit the stairs but its so quick she can't determine what they are.

         [Time: 2:17:57 pm]
         [Turn 36: Phase 2 - [Phase 259]]

            Fremea fires on one archer but 
misses.  As she does she notices out of the 
corner of her eye something flicker out of the 
stairs alcove.  The reason she missed was she 
turned to get a better angle.  She then notices 
the 2 small things are small birds hovering over 
the ship about 30 feet away.  But the hairs on 
the back of her head stand on end as she sees 
both stare at her.  She moves sideways a bit and 
they seem to follow her.  How can these creature 
see her while invisible? They are small birds 
like hand sized.  She notices their aura is a deep blue like Coronas.

            Mae fires her last dart from her 
crossbow but misses the archer.  Now  she has to 
reload taking time or go melee.

            Pyan turns away from the archers when 
he notices the 4 pirates at the other gangplank 
and worries they'll board.  He fires and hits one 
pirate in left shoulder doing 2 points of damage.

            Corona dives towards another pirate but misses his magical attack.

            The wolf tries to bite one pirate but misses.

            Unali stabs at the 2 new pirates in 
front of her.  Both daggers hit pirate #4 and % 
in the lower right abdomen doing enough to kill 
both.  She glances around unless the 2 on the 
wolf move in front of her she should get to the stairs in the next second.

            Brutto and Finn attack one archer 
doing 4 points each with swords. Ardackle and 
Zepp fight one archer.  While Zepp misses the 
other injured sailors slashes deep in his chest and kills the archer.

            Mournath and Kiet team up on last 
archer doing 3 and 4 with Kiet getting the killing blow to his stomach.

            Raddok hits one pirate near the dead 
archers already wounded and kills him with his mace.

            Barbosa attacks one pirate doing 6 
points with his mace in his left middle chest.

            Pirate #10 and #11 both slash at the 
wolf doing 1 and 5 points to the wolf.

            Pirate #12-14 move to the port side 
toward the invading boarders.  Pirate #12 swings 
at Raddok but he raises his shield and blocks it in time.

            Pirate #15 and #16 slash at Kiet and 
Barbosa.  Kiet blocks the sword with his 
shield.  But Barbosa yelps in pain as he takes 15 
points to his right middle chest just below his heart by #16.

           Pirate #17 and #18 move to back up the others (#15/#16).

           Pirate #19-#22 move toward port side 
to cut any party member moving starboard or aft.

            Pirates #23-#26 continue to guard the 
aft gangplank to ensure no boarding there from Pyan and Mae.

            Pirate #27 and #28 move to protect those around aft gangplank.

            Pirate #29 and #30 move to support 
the others near the party but are blocked by other pirates.

            Pirate #31-#33 move port side as well.

            Pirates #34-#38 move from the aft poop deck and move forward.

            Dorhak shakes Ix off his shoulder and 
rushes Pirate #19 swings his mace but misses.

            Ix rushes to help against the wolf 
and thrusts her sword-cane at one pirate but misses.

         [Time: 2:18:00 pm]
         [Turn 36: Phase 3 - [Phase 260]]

         Actions? Comments?

         Next Update...Saturday?

         GM: Ok.  Now that the logistics are done 
the 5 hours first phase should go down to 3 
hours. :) First 2 phases.  I think 9 are dead so 
a good start.  But eventually party will have a 
big fight on their hands.   Tomorrow busy but can 
possibly work on update fri/sat if I get the time 
– and staff get on time.  So will try to do next 
2 phases Fri/Sat (probably sat). Map should be 
accurate on pirate/player positions (ie tokens).
            Unali can understand the pirates 
tongue BTW.  I noticed this updating 
sheets.  Speaking of sheets I've been updating 
sheets with past experience.  Just a FYI I may 
not note language exp on mana chart.  Figured I'd 
remind you now.  But all other experience is 
listed. But language may be not listed for 
privacy.  IBT also updated.  As to sheets I'm 
down to only 4 left.  For Dorhak the sheet 
corrupted so gotta fix.  But got to do Arawn, 
Kiet, Fremea and Z.  All others updated.  Except for this pirate combat.
            Wound status at very bottom is a 
quick note.  I'll do a better table next time.

         GM:  Dorhak – Still until which armor 
wearing heavy or lighter? Bad roll on crossing 
the plank but got lucky didn't fall in.
              Fremea – if fire on birds they are 
small targets with bow.  Melee might be better 
but they are more agile. Also if fire on pirates 
let  me know of any archery or other spells.
              Kiet – For your spells will start 
next phase as well as melee.  Based on email 
sent.  Looks lie based on chart below 1 more phase for Skin. :<
              Raddok – Remember rings can fire 
split darts so can try 2 at a time.  You are on 
map but where Barbosa (B) is so if don't see it 
look for Barbosa.  Each  ' ' is 5 feet by 5 so 
plenty of room for 2 folks.  Just cramped for my map.
              Unali – Assume going down stairs 
next phase since finally unblocked.
