There’s no easy way to make out the barbarian leaders while they are running. No one is giving commands etc. and they’re all humans, mostly men.

Also in that minute, Benlin dimension doors to Rubius and casts Celestial Aspect firey wings on him, to give him a 100 movement.

Asinjin thinks ~get up here and help me pick off barbarian leaders~

Benlin, returning with Rubius (while the archons are dropping rocks) casts Cometfall into the center hunter of men.

Creates a boulder which drops, not effected by anti magic (no SR).  Everyone in a five foot radius takes 15d6 damage reflex for half and those that fail are knocked prone if they survive.  Also creates a heavy debris field to slow any who have to go through it.

Asinjin and more importantly Rubius, spot the barbarians to see who reacts differently and might be in charge.

Rubius takes flight and gets into position to start firing at Barbarian leaders.

The comet blasts a significant hole in the line and more importantly (as they thought they were protected from such things) the barbarian leaders redouble the charge. They cut in front of the wug corps and cause even more disruption.

Do we know of any casters in the city that are helping?

There are lots of wall spells that would fill the breach.

Does this reveal any of the leaders?

Yes, sorry. It’s clear who (in the group struck by the comet) who is giving the orders.

For reference there are three barbarian tribes present- the Snowserpents (largest group), Cavehome (almost look like humanoids, second largest), Hunters of Men (smallest group but most formidable looking and have the most anti magic coverage)

As the Barbarian leaders make their presence known, Rubius takes the opportunity to pepper them with arrows.

The first comet targeted the Hunters of Men group, which I think I posted previously.

After two rounds of full attack you have to move to get line of sight to the front ranks and the barbarians put their shields over their heads to obscure your view of the leaders (though they’re just trying to protect themselves)
