         [Recap]

            From Varo: [Re: Actions]
                 Varo, still tightening the 
straps of her armor while looking at the trees 
past the campfire to see if she can spot who, or 
whatever is in the trees in front of her to the SE.

                 She adds to her last shout-out “They're close - up in the 


                 As she finishes with her armor 
she will stay in her tent since one sniper is in 
front of her & firing again if she sees any 
wayward lighting of the sneaker. She wonders why 
the trees – that would seem an awkward way to 
sneak up on them – unless these were tree-living 
beings? She thinks of monkeys & squirrels, who 
are extremely agile & fast-moving in trees, and 
she gets a bit nervous. She faintly whispers a 
prayer to Ernalda [documented in last update].

                 She will try to sneak, using her 
tent & any shadows, bow at the ready, backing 
away from the fire’s coals, & move toward the 
horses to protect them, although she knows the 
sniper is closer than the horses at this point. 
She will work her way around to the south, using 
trees  & shrubs for cover, to try to get a better 
look at the invader before her & fire her bow if 
she spots it or movement in the trees.

                 [Can Varo possibly identify 
whatever is in the trees? idk if her knowledge or 
sight of it/them are adequate or not.] Thanks!
            GM: Ack. Only know its probably humanoid.  Better view is needed.

            From Rocky: [Re: Actions]
                 Abandoning his arbalest (as it takes too long to cock again) 

            GM: Ack.

         [New Stuff]

         [Wildday, Fertility week, Storm Season, 1625, Genertela, Glorantha]

         [Time: 5:25 am]

         [Round 7]

            Razgar rouses up from his slumber to 
hear the various noises of cracking branches and grunts.

            Sniper #1 still dazed a bit does a 
wild shot and misses aiming at Mournath.

            Sniper #3 rolls on his side and aims 
at Rocky but the arrow goes a good foot above his head and misses.

            Mournath fires at sniper 1 hitting in 
the right arm doing 4 points which disables it 
from previous damage  The sniper loses grip on his bow.

            Klorgar spots the form that must be 
sniper 1 and fires as he inches closer to him.

  But the arrow misses.

            Varo adds to her last shout-out 
“They're close - up in the trees! Ten to twenty feet up! Look up!”

            Abandoning his arbalest (as it takes 
too long to cock again) Rocky Yells "In tree!" as 
he grabs his shield and casts a Disruption spell 
while putting the shield on. Next he will put on 
his sling pouch, grab and ready his sling and 
start slinging bullets/rocks at the attackers. If 
meleed he will punch, kick and then grab his sword and fight with the sword.

Knowing his eyes are better in the dark than most 
others, while slinging he will yell out locations 
of the enemy when he sees them.

            Rocky unleashes his spell on sniper 3 
and the being clutches his abdomen and grunts in pain.

            Rocky then kneels and fires his sling 
at the sniper.  The sling bullet hits the sniper 
in right arm doing 1 point of damage.

            Mournath charges forward firing his 
bow at sniper 1 hitting him in his chest doing 2 points of damage.

            Klorgar charges forward as well and 
fires the arrow hits sniper 1's head armor and 
doing 6 points and he only had 1 point left.  Basically his head shatters.

            Varo peeks out the tent and prepares to move toward the horses.

         [Round 7]

            By now everyone wakes up except Juno 
who is having a real nice dream.

            Mournath kicks sniper 1 and ensure it 
is dead.  Then nods to Klorgar to do a sweep.  He 
moves south to check the area.

            Sniper 3 gets to his knees and turns 
to fire a wild shot at Rocky.  But the arrow misses by a foot.

            Rocky stands and fires his sling 
hitting the left leg of sniper 3 doing a massive 
8 points.  The sniper falls to his right side with leg basically shattered.

            Varo exits her tent and moves toward the horses.

            Those now awake grab weapons and try to assess the situation.

            Klorgar moves fast toward the south east.

            Rocky aims again with bullet hitting 
last sniper in neck but bouncing off.

            Mournath moves toward the horses as he spots Varo doing the same.

            Sniper #3 tries to sit up a bit just 
as a arrow from Klorgar hits his head dong 6 more 
points!  The sniper dies before he hits the ground.

            A minute late the battle ends after a 
fast perimeter check is done.  Juno is awaken by 
Marusk and yawns realizing he didn't miss much.

            Rocky stands over the dead sniper but 
doesn’t' seem to place it.  With shattered head 
features are missing.  He walks over to sniper #2 
with a intact head and nods.  Looks like these are Runners.

         GM: Actions? Comments?

             Next Update: Tue/Wed?

         GM: An exciting conclusion.  Rocky got 
that crit and Klorgar got two freaking head 
shots.  The odds!  I will do basic cleanup and 
report experience and such next update.  Kinda late now.


         GM: 130 Miles out – personal note for me.  To be updated.

                 Damage:
                    Jaren: 2 to abdomen
