Well, this is certainly a problem. They're fast, too fast. He needs a way to slow down their reaction time... For now, Milo sheathed his lance and grabbed hold of his shield. If he's gonna be attacked he might as well try and reduce the damage he can take.

To the left, you could hear the guttural roar of a Mogash, and the clashing of a large bladed weapon against the Qua 1 (the one on the left)'s shield. A large, burly looking, well-armoured Mogash adventurer seems to be engaged in combat with one of the Qua, relieving Milo of the pressure of dealing with two Qua at once... This one is still going to be tricky, however.

The Qua continued his charge, slamming into Milo in an attempt to knock him down. Whether it succeed or not, he moved his shield to the side, following up with a diagonal slash from right to left with his sword. His spears poked at the air above Milo pointlessly.
Barbara
The charge certainly had Milo staggered to say the least, and he very nearly tripped over his own feet as a result. However, he thrusted his shield towards the sword slash to halt the Qua's advance.

Okay, so that Mogash got rid of one threat, but one more still remains... Think!

Needing a means of taking this guy down a peg, Milo reached into his satchel and grasped tight onto a throwing knife. He took a breath in, and seeing the Qua move his shield to the side gave him the opening he needed to throw the blade at him.
David
The sword slash was successfully deflected, and the Qua was off balance for a moment.

The Qua's eyes opened up wide as he took out the knife, and before he could re-align the shield, he would find it flying and buried in his chest. But a quick throw wasn't enough to incapacitate the Qua, filled with adrenaline from battle. He would eventually go down, but not now.

The Qua charged forward, slamming Milo's shield again in an attempt to hook it away, once again trying the same diagonal slash.
Barbara
He didn't need to be incapacitated just yet, so long as he's distracted! Unfortunately the same can be said of Milo, who was preoccupied with repositioning his shield. He attempted to dodge the attack, but only managed to send his shield flying away from him. It skidded across the deck, tantalizingly sliding further from his reach.

"...*Lovely.*"

He's got to think of something, and fast! Rather than take out another throwing knife, he instead grabbed hold of a spare crossbow bolt. Unconventional the method may be, he attempted to stab the Qua in one of his legs to cripple it.
David
"TRY A STRAP!" One of the adventurer yelled as he observed Milo seemingly losing the fight. The Qua's slash connected, only to hit him in his armour. Thanksfully, the armour held up pretty well.

But Milo had no close combat weapon, and the Qua seems very confident in his advantage now. As he prepared for another strike, he'd realize that he was in fact, getting a bit too close to Milo, when his leg was stabbed by a crossbow bolt.

It let out a guttural screech, spraying disgusting saliva and blood onto Milo's face, and then tried to perform a draw cut on his unprotected arm, all while losing his balance.
