Willie: "We don't want to fight that up close until we know more about it! If it gets too close, retreat!"
Willie will add his sling to the volley.

Re: The Ninth Adventure
Kiplyn will pull back behind the line of slingers. Having torch in hand there is little else he can do but stand ready.

Re: The Ninth Adventure
Seeing bilfur has a lit torch he will use this as a melee weapon once the slingers volley their shots and if the thing moves into melee range. Bilfur is no fighter
Re: The Ninth Adventure
OOC: I think it's a good plan! The slingers have pretty good odds of dropping the carrion crawler before it can reach melee range. The +1 'close range' bonus will be in effect. Hobbets have the racial ability to sling a stone up to 15". I may have slightly misruled this earlier, but in Delving Deeper system, 15" breaks down to range increments Close/Medium/Maximum = 5"/10"/15" = +1/0/-4.
(Most underground battles within the 30' radius of torchlight or lanternlight are considered 'close' range.)
