Awesome as usual, and bonus points for the bad guy's sucker punch attack actually hitting a main weak point in plate mail.

I also like that Angela throws a hand axe. I've seen a lot of people with melee focused martial characters hauling around multiple javelins as a backup ranged weapon because they do slightly more damage. When they announce in the middle of a fight that they're throwing one or even several in a single turn I always think, "Just where were you carrying those multiple long hafted spears while fighting with both hands this whole time?" Mechanically a high strength character can handle the weight but those things aren't exactly throwing knives you can conveniently slip a half dozen of into your belt or strap to your thighs or arms. A nice tomahawk or two, on the other hand, you can have tucked until your belt.
