This is a Tunnels and Trolls adventure in the Castle Calahony series.
If you have ropes, you may tie your soldiers together.
Every one must make a L1-SR on dex. Who fails, falls down to death unless tied to the others. After a turn, the front character encounters an orc. Roll him up on the opponents table.
The front character must fight him. Have normal combat, with one complication. If he is tied to a rope, his dexterity is reduced by 3. If his neighbor cuts the cord, this reduction takes effect only the first combat round.
If he is killed, he falls down. If he is tied, he takes the next one with him falling to death. The third cuts the cord in time to face the orc. Repeat this procedure until the orc is killed or you are all dead.
If all persons on the ridge die, those who remained behind
return to the camp.
