Interested? check out the Character Creation thread to see if there is room

Alright finally, here is the game thread, The dice roller we will use is Rolz, For nickname either put your character name or your AG name, the room name is "GURPSAG" no quotes, all caps. The game uses 3d6 for most rolls, with your skills showing the number you have to get UNDER to succeed.

If you don't have a character GO TO CHARACTER CREATION THREAD! Otherwise post your sheet here to start.

that's two hits, both of which he is unable to block (sorry for rolling twice on Rolz, you're only allowed one block per turn, unless you do a double defense) so roll damage twice and make sure to compare the weapon damage type against the chart to see if it does extra damage, he wears no armor either.

cutting weapons do x1.5 to penetrating damage, so you deal 12 damage in one blow, dropping him instantly with on solid chop with the sword, followed by a finishing blow.

Another replaces him and stabs for you, but the jab misses the target

Yes you hit him, for 6 damage, a solid chop to the shoulder delivers a nasty wound. The spearmen returns with a determines stab with his spear, roll defense.

Th'e battle hasn't started, this is the opening salvo, the Parthians are advancing, there is at least 100 of them, and there are about 150 of your own, they are 20m out by now, your range on your javelin is 1.5X your strength, past that is "half damage range" up to 2.5x your strength

Sean, yeah that fails, his spear shots past your shield in an over hand thrust, stabbing into your cuirass, gouging the metal, but not penetrating.
