>>6190171One final ballista bolt flew past your men, hitting one of the gnoll huts, flying through it and impacting somewhere in the middle of the gnoll camp.
You had ordered a cease fire and watched if there was any movement amongst the gnolls. Dust and the fire that had spread across the hastily built barricades obstructed your view, so if there were survivors, they could still be hidden there.
“I don’t think they have survived.” Sir Foecourt said to you. He had been watching the carnage unfolded next to you in total silence. “Shall we go in to check them out?”
His cavalry had missed the battle, just like the infantry which was probably for the best. Unnecessary casualties would have happened if you had engaged the gnolls in the open. Now who gets the honour of going to poke some corpses to see if they are still alive or not?
>Give the cavalry the “honour” to move in first. This way you get an opportunity of seeing the gnolls and surveying the battlefield before anyone else.>Send in the infantry, they will do a thorough work going through the gnolls and seeing if any are still alive.>You can wait for the dust to settle before moving it. You want no surprises, no unnecessary casualties.>Other, write in.QM: Them spotting you had a benefit, they bunched up nicely to be killed on the spot.
