You have a point but if you don't charge with the rhino, what will you do? Again I say, you do have a point... >.<

and another thing, you never said what your first move was, so i had to make one for you, otherwise i had nothing to act on, you was afterall second into the arena.

WHAT why can i do my own move

plus Antio, the troll, is there too

can can write that in rolepla if you want

actually no, hows this for size?

"bruiant sees that ant is on a rhino, and is with another troll, rippling with muscles. he notices that they both have drawn bows, ant has a sword, and the troll will no doubt be able to knock somebody dead with the blow of his fists. admitting to defeat, he drops his javelin, snaps his bow and arrows, takes of his helmet, and grabs his short sword. with the shortsword, he drives it deep into his intestines, dragging it up, and then along, leaving bloody entrails across the sand. thr pupils go white, as the life in bruiant fades, falling dead upon the floor."

that good enough for you?

that wasent a serious one btw :D
its your go, im on one knee with a bow and arrow, after jumping aside from the rhino, your antio is fine, but death is chasing you.

No....

less annoyed but still pissed off

Antman circles Bruiant, while Antio fires 2 arrows at him, Antman charges at Bruiant on Death with his sword in his right hand and shield and reins in his left.

Antman rises his shield to try and chatch the arrows and turns Death round to charge at Bruiant. Death starts running very fast at bruiant, a little to the left of him, from Antman's point of view, Antman eruges Death on to run quicker

sorry how do you know you aren't hit already, plus do you know how fast rhinos go?

*Bruiant just dodges the arrows, making himself more of a target by trying to get out of the way when the arrows were way off course. Having shot the arrows so quickly at Ant, he misses. Death starts to break into a run at Bruiant, but has a slow start because of his limp. Bruaint aims carefully at Antio, but having shot three arrows at the one time only one goes towards its target, and hit Antio in the chest. Due to his hard skin it isn't a fatal blow, but gives him quite a wound. Bruiant readies himself for the collision by pulling his Kite shield out, and Death runs straight into it. With a roar that shook the earth, Death slams into the shield, knocking Bruiant far back, and hurling Ant into the ground into front of him. Death lies on the ground, stunned. Ant gets up quicker than Bruaint, but only by a little. They stand opposite each other, gauging who will attack first.*

Antman swings his sword quickly at Bruiant's head, then moves back from him. He calls Death to him.

*Bruiant blocks the blow easily, and while Ant calls the momentarily unconscious Death, Bruaint swings a fearsome swipe with his sword, which Ant just blocks with his shield, but due to Bruiant's strength, his shield arm is slightly hurt.(Not too much, it will be just slightly slower to move.) Ant stumbles back.*

You try pulling back on a bow with no chest muscles intact. not only will it be excruciating pain, causing you to either give up, or to pass out, your body will shake like crazy if you actually managed to begin to make the stirng taut, which lets face it, only sends it 3 or 4 yards. unless antio passed out, i doubt he would have shot an arrow, and if he did shoot it, his vision would be severly blurred, and be very inaccurate.

"seeing ants shield arm is taking the brunt of his attacks, he pushes on, dropping his guard slightly, to unleash a series of blows. another sweeping blow from right to left, in a downward arc. followed shortly by a sharp push with his shield."

Antman calmly moves forward and stabs at Bruiants left, his quickly spins round to sweep at his legs from the right. He starts to rise his shield, and side steps to the right.

so he doesn't have to worry about my opening stab

ok

when can death stand up again and antio fight?

with a small stem of blood flowing from his thigh, bruiant feels no pain. he does know however, if the battle continues too long, his wound will sap him of energy. a quick glance in both directions, he spots death about to recover from his stupor, yet he notices antio is on his knees, clutching his chest. Abt stood before him, wielding a much poorer quality sword and shield. thinking quickly, bruiant believed if he hit the shield enough times, he could possibily split it in to. acting on instinct, he attempted to take ant unaware. stepping forth on his right leg he swung his sword again at the shield. kicking out, he also attempted to catch ant on the jaw with the hilt of the blade.

[Above the knee-cap is the thigh?]

He rose back up to his full height, and sees Death rising slowly, still slightly unfocused, but he still manages to go in Ant's general direction

i thought you should have re writien your first post

thats better :D i wait to see if my helmet stops it (i think chainmail armour includes a chainmail helm?) my first post wasent extreme or impossible. you just didnt state the first move. the post you made about hitting me with ant was impossible, as i saw death get up.

ok :D

calculating his odds, Bruiant believes his biggest threat lies with Ant. as long as bruiant always stays aware of the positioning of death, he could have the possibility to avoid a charge. Pushing forwards yet again, he swings his sword twice more, yet this time aiming for ants head. once he has swung, he attempts to retreat back, to avoid any hits.

*Bruiant is easily blocked by Ant. Death comes up behind Ant, who pats it on the head absent-mindedly. Antio manages to stand up, but immediately falls again.* (Another 3 or 4 turns)
