>>5424274> “…!” Without a word you rush in at the sorceror’s side, hoping to end this in one fell swoop of your blade. You have no wish to give them time to cast their next spell and share in the unfortunate fate of those two previous victims. [Hearty] + [Combat start: Belligerent / Audacious]Seeing as we're fighting a magic user who's not drawn his blade yet, I think we should begin with an audacious attack to maximise our chances of damage before we have to go on the defensive. The wording of his spell's effect makes me think the increased AV would be useless in any case. Best to gamble on scoring a big hit in the first move. Also, "you have no wish to give them time to cast their next spell" makes me think we'll have the initiative with this option.
