So as stated, [B]the 5 skels are AC16, hps 4. The skeleton champion is AC21 ! Hps 17.[/B] please post your AC and hps, too. 

I'll roll their initiative and attacks now.

Thye go on [B]21[/B], so probably are fastest. I can retcon later if one of you manages to go earlier.

Two ordinary skels attack the pankratist, two the priest. One standard skel and the champion are on Tiros.

All miss except both of Tiros' opponents! Tiros [B]takes 10 damage[/B] and his attack misses.

Tiros [B]takes 10 damage[/B]! [/sblock] [/ooc] Merana and Fidi meet their bony attackers well, easily fending their clumsy swipes. But Tiros is struck twice, once glancingly by the ordinary skeleton, but again more tellingly by the helmed champion.

The champion fends Tiros' return blow!

Much of the written response was directed at justifying the actions TfL’s had performed in classes. The x,y,y move was frequent in accounts. But a coding of elements according to reflection type had revealed that TfL’s were able to generate reflective writing that had elements beyond desctription or justification. Practices varied widely between individuals, but it was clear some TfL’s were attempting to furnish accounts according to their own emerging sense of what such an account should contain. Hence evidence, theory, even occasionally deeper reflection was I found in accounts.
Given these findings, it was necessary to formulate a solution to our stated aims, I.e. developing better practices and instruments, that addressed the issues raised. Coding of samples from the reflections indicated that learners are capable of generating a variety of reflection types, as well as willing to attempt accounts that contain elements of writing that provide more than description.
One obvious response was to respond to the most powerful signal sent by TLs during the investigative stage of research. This was the signal that , even whete TLs appreciated and believed that reflection was valuable for its own sake, they nevertheless indicted that their writing practices were shaped by concern for their work’s assessment. Strategies such as introducing additional detail,responding multiply whete they felt an overlap existed and regarding work positively were the most common of these.
Applying a typical AR model ( use model with lit review as stage) , we looked at literature that dealt with assessment and ... studies had been carried out. The concept in literature that addressed this most close,y was that of washback, in particular the notion that washback can be either positive or negative.
