The ambush was really good, Crispin the magic-user used his sleep spell to take out most of the hobgoblin's personal guard. The elf, thief and cleric used missile weapons to pick off the goblins carrying the chest, then the hobgoblin rushed the cleric who whacked him right good in the had knocking him from full to 1 hp in a single hit. I had him check morale right away and he decided to run for it cursing in goblin "fuck this, its not worth it". The treasure was nice. All of the coin and gems they'd stolen over the last cou
