WAVE 2
The cloud cover has become more deep, and a light rain breaks out upon the battlefield. (-1 move or normal move with DEX check to avoid falling.)
You hear them coming through the trees at the end of the gorge, but it is difficult to tell who your enemy is until they appear.
When they come, you see what awaits you.
On the northern ledge, 5 duergar slink along toward your archers. 8 more are at the base of the ledge.
Duergar: Duergar, or gray dwarves, are a malevolent breed that exist at extreme depths underground. They are enemies with the dwarves and would easily ally themselves with the orcs. They can hide in shadows well and slink among the walls and rocks. They have excellent night vision.
Duergar appear to be emaciated, nasty-looking dwarves. Their complexions and hair range from medium to dark gray. They prefer drab clothing designed to blend into their environment.
Some of you remember encountering the duergar in the adventure "Time Bandit."
South of the duergar, you see 10 more orcs approaching, again with another commander leading them.
Flanking the orcs are two nasty looking trolls, hunched and wart-covered as they head across. Collars like slave collars are around the trolls' necks.
There is also a giant procession of 30 kobolds breaking through the ranks. They are rat-like humanoids who are moving faster than the others. They also have excellent nightvision.
Running even faster than the kobolds are 6 giant wolves (dire wolves). They also have collars and are sniffing close to the ground as they run.
At the southmost end of the gorge, three more collared trolls slink in and begin heading along the southern walls.
OOC: Since you have chosen to concentrate the battle in this area, I have redone the map slightly to make it easier to follow, account for movement, and be more visually appealing.
NOTE: You have had enough time to reload the cannons and catapults.
