The dwarves pressed their initiative a second round, thanks to a ranger spotting and interdicting a mighty attempt by the attackers to seize the initiative back. The wargriders were unable to press through the sea of chopping axes, and soon their mounts were bearing their slumped forms back through the hills as quickly as they had come.
