I can do 60 ft as a double move so I'd like to just do that if I could. I'd like to not lose my dex to AC if possible thanks :) initiative roll as I assume it will be necessary.

initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Gorthug will have complete confidence in Grumbar to kill two humans. He will use the distraction to make his way into the tower. Top priority is to stop the humans from lighting the beacon

Okay, anyone else like to roll initiative and declare actions?

humans' initiative: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

Yep, and you do keep your dex to AC bonus.

Ak'iss, on Bitey's back, sneaks quietly past the poor humans who are about to meet their doom at the axe wielded by the literal Champion of Gruumsh and follows Gorthug into the tower itself.

Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Thorjo slips past Grumbar and into the tower.

Initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Awe, poor Grumbar, taking on two humans alone and without backup. Oh well. Storm the tower everyone!

Agatha hasn't posted, has she?

initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Rauusk saw the others storm the tower, and scowled to himself. There would be little room to force his way past them, though he could try to shoot. Besides, if one of Grumbar's humans got lucky, the raiders would be down a valuable ally. Numbers counted, even against human scum.

Bursting out from the high grass, he flanked one of the humans, giving Grumbar an advantage. He pelted the other with the severed head of the scout leader while he drove his sword at the flanked foe.

"This is the only fate that awaits you!"

longsword+surprise+flank: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 22
dmg: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Good hit.

Looks like we can't wait for Agatha Mystblame, so here we go. The man you hit, Rauusk, turns around and engages you. Two hits, two different damages.

Attack on Grumbar: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Power attack.
Damage on Grumbar: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Attack on Rauusk: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Damage on Rauusk: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

apologies, My computer signed out and i didn't notice till now.

Anga looks at the human rauusk didn't attack

Curse of the goddess on you.

Evil eye hex, -2 to attack, DC16 will to resist, in which case it lasts one round

Mine did the same thing to me. And speaking of the human's getting lucky... ouch!

The human's sword cuts a gash along Grumbar's side. He drops his axe as he focuses the pain into a fury, channeling the rage of the abyss. His hands grow into claws and his eyes glow a dull red. With a roar he lashes out at the humans in front of him.

Free action to rage then full attack. First attack on the flanked person then move on to the next if the first goes down.

claw attack, flank+power attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

The first claw attack misses, but the second hit dead on. You managed to return a gash to the human.

Map of where everyone is at the moment. Thanks be to Heroic Maps, this map uses Orsagrigg's Tower.

Thorjo suddenly realizes the humans in the tower in front of him.

"Oh."

He takes a step to the side to put a human in between himself and Gorthug and attacks.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 = 13
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

That's not a miss, but a hit.

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Damage: 3d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 6, 1) + 7 = 16

Map looks great!

Bursting into the tower, Gorthug looked around and saw that he was surrounded by armed humans. Predicatable, but it still meant that he had no time to summon the gaze of his god, to guide his attacks. Relying instead on his own brute strength, he swung his axe at the human to his left.

Ak'iss starts gleefully swinging away with her new sword while Bitey does exactly what he's named for.

I'm assuming the dagger is +1. Swinging it with -2 for being the wrong size weapon. Actions: Swift Action: Switch Bitey's Animal Focus to +2 Str. Standard Action: Attack. Bitey Full Attack.

Magic Sword: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (1) - 2 = -1Swingy damage: 1d4 - 1 ⇒ (3) - 1 = 2

What the...? I swear I posted yesterday, but now I don't see my post. WTF. OK, here goes again.

Rauusk laughed off the pitiful attack, and sneered at the human. "You came down to witness death, human? Then perish." He used both hands to bring his sword down on the human.

longsword + flanking: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 2 = 16

Hit with bite and second claw. Almost, but not quite, a death.

Good hit there. Nearly killed him.

sorry lost the initiative post and didn't notice.
intiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Agatha chooses another target and casts a quick spell, targeting the nearest target.

daze spell, DC 14 will or gain the dazed condition

Will Save: 1d20 ⇒ 18
He rubs his eyes and blinks, he's not dazed. He starts moving towards the witch, turning his back on his enemy. "I'm going to kill you, witch!" he exclaims. This gives Grumbar an attack of opportunity.

Meanwhile, the human engaging Rauusk is taking a swipe at him.
Human attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

The humans inside have to contend with a warcat, along with the kobold, and two other orcs. They can't disengage. One of them tries to attack the warcat.
human attacks warcat: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
The warcat is Bitey.

The other tries for Gorthug.

AOO claw attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
damage: 1d6 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13

As the human turns his back on Grumbar and starts towards Agitha, a bloody claw bursts through the man's chest dropping him where he stood.

edited for description

AOO claw attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

You killed him before he could get to the witch.

longsword+flank: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 5 + 2 = 18
2h dmg: 1d8 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

Rauusk's sneer turned into an ugly grin as the feeble human couldn't muster a defense, much less an attack. With a powerful swing of his sword, he lopped the man's head off.

"Let's get inside," he told Grumbar and Agatha, already on his way. Once inside the watchtower, he would judge whether it was better to keep fighting by sword, or to draw his bow.

Yep, that was a good blow, you killed him. The way is clear, you can make for the tower.

Inside the tower, Thorjo focuses on controlling the tight swings of his flail as he attacks again in the enclosed space.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 2 = 8
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Grumbar, his hand dripping gore, heeds Rauusk's words and rushes the door to the tower making a beeline for the closest human slashing with his claw.

move next to ak'iss. Attack with claw.

Ouch, human man down and out.

Can I get an initiative summary? My brain is fried today and I can't figure out whose turn it is.

Agatha: 14

Grumbar:11 charged inside and killed another

I think bitey took a hit for 5 damage.

Scowling, Akiss continues her fruitless assault. Bitey does a little better, perhaps.

If Bitey has to move, just use the bite attack.

Moving to the next human, Gorthug swung his axe once more. The man made the mistake of raising his blade to block the incoming axe. The blade did not survive the attempt, nor did he...

Your magic sword isn't connecting. But Bitey's bite did and caused some damage to the human.

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Damage: 3d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 6, 5) + 7 = 20

Ouch. You just took out Ak'iss the Witless' target.

It looks like Agatha and then humans and then the rest of us, again.

Rauusk went into the tower after his attack, right?

Right. Everyone except Agatha is in the tower by now.

Agatha enters as well.
Sorry, lost a post. Again.

I'll work on a new map.

EDIT: New Map for the battle.

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Damage: 3d6 + 7 ⇒ (3, 1, 2) + 7 = 13

Trying to force his way to the last holdout of humans, Gorthug moved to swing his axe. However, in a confined space and a swirling melee, there is only so much room to swing something to large and ponderous.

miss.

Looks like we found a weakness for that axe.

Determined, Ak'iss and Bitey renew their assault.

Bitey Bite: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5Bite Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Bitey Claw: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20Claw Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Magic Sword: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (13) - 2 = 11Swingy damage: 1d4 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1

Ak'iss has killed her opponent.

Thorjo resolves to do better with his next swing:

Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 2 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Good hit.

Agatha looks for a likely target and...
Curse of the goddess on you.

Evil eye hex, -2 to attack, DC16 will to resist, in which case it lasts one round

The glint of the abyss leaves Grumbar as he blinks away the haze of anger. He looks around for his axe but not seeing it he draws his sword and advances towards the next target. Breathing heavy, he swings to end the one that stands before him but his fatigue is apparent.

Free action: End rage. Move South on the map, assuming the door is open at least. Attack with Falchion. Fatigued for 4 rounds

attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

"Get to the top - don't let them light the fire!" Rauusk headed for the door to his left, intending to climb the tower stairs.

First floor: Sleeping quarters for the men and the captain. You can continue your flight upstairs. Please note that any men you left behind alive will be following you.

Are we on the next round? And could we get an updated map of the ground floor? Bit confused on how many foes are left.

Hit: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Damage: 3d6 + 7 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) + 7 = 15

Gorthug glared at the human whom he had missed with pure rage. Stepping forward, he kicked the man in the gut, causing him to stagger backward. Now, with room to swing, he brought the axe down directly onto the man's head. Given his strength, and the weight of his weapon, the results were are clear as they were messy.
