Mefighter beta team tenth session notes

Beyond Monstertown

As the party prepares to use the boat to row across the river to get the Dwarves, they note it is the first deal of the Fast of Anticipation
Thurmin and Uhanimara row the boat across while Byll and Gub stand by to provide covering fire (Thurmin is a damn good rower, apparently)
The Dwarves row back
The party carries on, now heading roughly south towards the mine at Draglet

The party encounters a group of 7 scarecrows in a circle on the path
The Wickermen Goblns demand tribute to allow passage; the group has had enough of paying to get through things
Gub is spoken to by goblins who are wondering why he is traveling with humans, dwarves and a halfling
Gub is not successful in bluffing the goblins and is attacked.
Two other goblins use their crossbows to light two of the wickermen on fire
As the battle is joined, two other Wickermen are lit on fire
Brunner and Drem kill lots of goblins, with support from Gub's arrows and Uhanimara's spells. Thurmin even kills a couple.
Goblins riding war dogs emerge from the trees, but the group handles the goblin pack quite easily
As the one survivor runs away, there is a crashing sound south and east of the scarecrow circle and a 12 foot tall scarecrow with scythe blades for arms emerges
The group kills the giant scarecrow, thanks to some excellent shooting by Gub

At camp that night, the group is attacked by two rat swarms emerging from the woods
The rat swarms are joined by dire rats and were rats.
Uhanimara vomits out her spiderswarm, and some hot swarm on swarm action occurs
