Ergo Kondor will fight his way through the beastmen in his way.

Initiative d6:  3!

attack d20:  1!  Nuts!  Why do I only have 1hp?!

Okay, I grant I missed the information that beastmen blocked my way to the weapons. Do they also bar my way to the canoes? If they don’t, can I alter course for the canoes?

If the answer is no, Gundrabu might as well charge right into a beastman again. It worked great the first time. I’m sure this time will go just as well!

 =11ptA =11ptcritical miss =11ptis a natural 1 attack roll that might result in the attacker suffering something untoward. Such a “fumble” can occur at the most inopportune moments; blunders that can lead to embarrass- ment, defeat, or death. Like critical hits, critical misses infuse the game with greater danger and thus greater tension. Note that if a result does not suit the situation, the referee is instructed to shift to the preceding result. For example, if a monk is attacking with his fists and the critical miss result is “drop weapon”, simply select the “bad miss” result.

nevermind. got it.
 

potentially deadly d12:  3!

So... third entry down? Looks like stumble... and possibly attacked by a beast man. Yikes!

3 for a fighter is a: Bad Miss: An embarrassing attack attempt, worthy of ridicule; attack routine may continue.

[But first we see what happens with Gundrabu's rolls.]

Gundrabu slips past the second set of battling beastmen and makes it to the canoes/gear piles!

Tillak is unlucky as well and gets smashed in the face with a wild club! and falls unconscious to the ground, shy of the canoes!
[Tillak -2 HP]

D6 - 5!

Gundrabu will follow through with my earlier declaration to seize up the Crystal Weapon. If he still has an action after that, he will beat any threatening beastman away from unconscious Tillak in preparation to dragging his cousin into a canoe.
