Nelson turned quickly and struck with the flat of his palm against Balquhor's nose, trying to drive the cartilage straight into the ugly man's brain.
Balquhor wasn't an intelligent man, but he did have good animal instincts. He screamed as he saw the blow coming.
Balquhor has a Melee value of 3 and fights on Chart D.
Nelson has a Melee value of 6 and fights on Chart C.
Beginning on the third round of the fight, another bandit joins the melee every other round. The Melee value of each bandit is 3. If at the start of any round, there is no bandit for Nelson to fight, Nelson escapes. If Nelson does not escape, continue the fight until all the bandits are dead (at which time Nelson escapes) or Nelson is dead.
If Nelson is killed, go to section 29.
If Nelson escapes, go to section 14.
