I don't think they did.

I do wish someone had nudged Sammy or something. This looks like an uphill battle.

Nah. As long as Clem, O'Connor and Johnny can take the barghest in the lead, the wounded one isn't getting a look in.
Though if you think the three can't take it, tell me and i'll take the risky option.

Initiative

Initiative (-2) roll (8d6.minroll(7).hits(5) + 8d6.hits(5)=9)[/spoiler]

How many passes do you all have?

3 passes here.

Apologies! (and again for posting without seeing Crossbow's afk-support post)

If there's anything else I seem to have missed, let me know.

I have 3 IP while astral, and I'll come running back (at 6000 km/h according to the book apparently  ) as soon as my watcher dies or I get wounded (as you feel that on your astral form as well).  My astral initiative is equal to my physical initiative (makes it easy to remember ).

Seeing as these things are dual-natured, are you able to blast them from the astral?

Yes, with mana spells (like stunbolt).  But I'm away, I don't even know there's barghests.

But when you do show up, you get to fight at Astral speeds.  While vertically out of reach.

Okay, Icarus has joined the crowd at 9, let me get all the actions for the first pass including O'Connor since I think you are doing a full defense and will need to go ahead and roll that.

[HydroRaven]

Clem's plan hasn't changed: she'll delay her actions and wait for the first beast to be close enough for her to attack it. However, if she sees that the beast is stopping before she can reach it, she'll tell the others to follow her and she'll go meet it.

Heron is going to sit up and give the closest barghest (I think that's the unwounded one) a stunbolt between the eyes.

It is the unwounded one, go ahead and make that happen with the rolling of dice, yours will be the first action.

[Crossbow]

This is also the attacker that seems to be bearing down on O'Connor.  Is Clementine intending to take the charge for him and get an attack in or just trying to hit him as he passes her?

[HydroRaven]

I was thinking more of an intercept/hit it as it passes.

[Crossbow]

I was thinking more of an intercept/hit it as it passes.

Okay then, the difference is that you get a bonus for taking the charge and a penalty for going for it as it passes, with the upside being you aren't the one getting hit, so I can see the benefit


What are Johnny and Icarus doing?

[Novocrane]

Post-zips? Moving toward whatever passes for a front line, then delaying until at least one barghest is closer.

[Gorean]

So I didn't do as well as I hoped on the rolls (needed 1 more success to drop it). So the lead barghest is still moving albeit barely.
