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.

You're stabbed right in the chest, but the spear doesn't penetrate your Linothorax.

JACK Alright, you move 3m/s so 3 meters per round.


Nivlac Yeah that's a horrible miss and almost a fumble, but the parthian stabs towards you again, prompting another defense roll.

JACK:Alright it would be a 5 round charge against 50ish archers...


Nivlac: That is just a miss again, the he again stabs you in the chest, the Linothorax fraying and you feel a sharp pain, but it's only a flesh wound. Another spearman moves up and makes a spear thrust at the Parthian,, but hte large shield the arab carries flicks to the side and blocks the jab.

Alright no need to roll for a walking motion, you've retreated. you already see some men dragging shields and spears back, some minorly wounded, others gushing blood as they stagger behind the lines.

Jack: They would be firing into three shields, and they're just Argive shields, a type of which you only utilize 2/3's of the actual space of them from chin to thighs


Nivlac: Sadly there are no Auxiliaries this battle, Though you check your chest and find no blood, only the frayed sections of your Linothorax that were hit.
