Speaking is a free action
Having dropped the goblin in the bush and seeing many foes arrayed against them, yet a mere 20ft gap between John and the wall (N1) Duncan barks an order, Orsin, Ermolos form a line between John and the wall, It nullifies their number and protects the archers.

He points with his arm as he speaks indicating a line.
If they occupy L1 and m1 the goblins cannot get around to attack the archers or flank

Rd1:

Maurice draws the string of his finely shaped composite longbow and lets the arrow fly towards a goblin in the rear of the group. Hex L12

Longbow: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 91d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

But the arrow flight catches some on the dried tree brances and the flight is interrupted, falling short. He shakes his head and steps forward five feet. Moves to Hex L-2

Andrea will take a 5' step to j-5, reloads her crossbow and fires at the goblin that she shot previously at M-2

attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Andrea will take a 5' step to j-5, reloads her crossbow and fires at the goblin that she shot previously at M-2

[dice=attack]1d20+5
[dice=damage]1d8+1

Andrea was so confident from her last bold attack, her hand flinched slightly as she fired her bolt...missing the kneeling goblin.

Just you remember goblin; I ment to do that! I could have killed you any time! Meow!

Orsin moves with practiced steps, passing swiftly behind (well, through, technically) Ermolos and Duncan. Clutching his blade in both hands he attacks the kneeling, wounded goblin in front of him. A brief shimmer of light passes through his longsword as he attempts to bisect the goblin from crotch to crown.

Orsin moves to M1, activates Arcane Strike as a swift action and makes a Power Attack against the wounded goblin in M2. He continues to maintain his bardic performance as a free action (I'm now down to 10 rounds).

Power Attack with inspire courage: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Longsword damage with inspire courage and arcane strike: 1d8 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17

If M1 is dead, Orsin will ready an action to attack any enemy that moves into his threat range.

Orsin's slashes at the kneeling goblin but goblin turns to his left just before the blade strikes home.

Shinon can take his action when he gets on.

The troblin standing near John is hideously deformed with numberous lumps and third arm outgrowth. He uses his great club with two of his three arms and tries to slash the armored turtle with his ohter hand while biting feriously at his flesh.

Greatclub: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 221d10 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Claw: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 91d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
bite: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (3) + 0 = 31d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

The greatclub crashes on the armored helm, a loud ringing sound can be heard. The claw and the bite miss horribly.

A second troblin rushes up and uses his greatclub trying to hit John's midsection.

Greatclub: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 141d10 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

But the swing is wild and misses, unfortunately.

A goblin dog moves swiftly forward with a goblin on his back to try to gain the flanking positon near Maurice.

Dog Bite: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 191d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Goblin Shortbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 241d4 ⇒ 4
Ride: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Maurice grimaces in pain as the dog takes chunk of flesh out and arrow strikes his leg.

Here is a MID ROUND 1 MAP UPDATE for everyone.
