My bad, grease coming up.
Grease has 30' range. I moved you up to the other two.

With a sinking feeling, Hon moves along side Brask (T61). "Whichever target you pick, so will I. I will remain as stealthly as possible." If it wasn't for the footprints in the snow, his condensing exhalation and his almost whisper, you might've thought the moving snowshadow learned how to speak. Hon's shrug conveys his acknowledgement of Brask's much more successful attempt at stealth.
Thograt moves up behind Big Mug takes out a copper piece and casts a spell. A shroud of darkness 40' in diameter falls over the group.

DESCRIPTION
This spell causes an object to radiate darkness out to a 20-foot radius. This darkness causes the illumination level in the area to drop one step, from bright light to normal light, from normal light to dim light, or from dim light to darkness. This spell has no effect in an area that is already dark. Creatures with light vulnerability or sensitivity take no penalties in normal light. All creatures gain concealment (20% miss chance) in dim light. All creatures gain total concealment (50% miss chance) in darkness. Creatures with darkvision can see in an area of dim light or darkness without penalty. Nonmagical sources of light, such as torches and lanterns, do not increase the light level in an area of darkness. Magical light sources only increase the light level in an area if they are of a higher spell level than darkness.
If darkness is cast on a small object that is then placed inside or under a lightproof covering, the spell's effect is blocked until the covering is removed.
This spell does not stack with itself. Darkness can be used to counter or dispel any light spell of equal or lower spell level.
"I'm makin' fer tha tents. If we can kill them, then tha guards will 'ave just a wee bit 'arder o' a time killin' us." Brask whispers back.

Hon will continue to advance in a stealthy manner and delay firing crossbow until one of the scouts gives an alert. Of course, this may be immediately following Thograts dome of darkness. If so, Hon lets fly a bolt. "As my cousin Knuckles always says "Waste'em with my crossbow!"" crunch

The crossbow flies wide, and its passage is not noticed in the biting wind. Khazad advances with the darkened raiders.
The mounted sentries drop low in the saddle, one rushing to the horse pen. The other mounted sentry rushing to the center of the camp while flinging a sunrod out to where Kib's dancing lights are. Magnum and Kragg are slighly illuminated by dim light, but have not been noticed. The sentry not under cover by the horse pen runs and opens the gate.
Kragg will take a run action to U26 trusting that keeping in the shadows will keep him safe as he nears the bandits. stealth
Some sleeping figures rush out into the open, they are not armored, but they are armed. Both groups pick out the unmistakable silhoutte of two dwarves. A curious development. Kragg has difficulty running in the snow, but makes it as far as he can unnoticed.

One sentry on foot opens the horse pen and the mounted sentry rushes in and grabs a string of about four horses. The two partially concealed sentries toss two burning torches. One two the north and one to the south of the camp. Both land far away from the two groups.
Kragg notes both groups are still undiscovered.
Kragg will continue his advance forward by running to v29. He will attempt to stay in the shadows but knows that in all likelihood he will be spotted as he gets closer. stealth
The dwarves crept closer and closer, but finally Kragg was approaching a huddled sentry when he is heard by the sentry and one of the bleary dwarves stumbling out of the tent.
The sentry tosses a bottle of alchemists fire at Kragg from point blank range. It misses, but silhouettes Kragg even with his cloak.
The dwarf says as he rushes toward Kragg with a greataxe and long winter wool underwear, "That is one of Stonecrusher's favorites. He's trying to sneak up on us."
Many of the human's just awaken rush into the pen to get horses, some advance on Kragg, and some are just stumbling from their tent. A third grizzly dwarf stumbles out of bead in his winter underclothes with an axe and shield.
The southern team is unnoticed. Kragg's spontaneous distraction has them occupied.

Aloud Khazad says nothing, not to break cover while the enemies are occupied. He gets up again, panting, and rushes to Kragg's help, trying to overtake Big Mug and stay in front of him.
Brask fires a shot into a sentry, he barely hangs on to consciousness as he ducks. Khazad and Big Mug continue the charge. On the other side of the human camp Magnum looks at Kib as he prepares to throw the hammer that is so perfectly balanced you don't even realize it is in your hand.

DESCRIPTION
A weapon made of force appears and attacks foes at a distance, as you direct it, dealing 1d8 force damage per hit, + 1 point per three caster levels (maximum +5 at 15th level). The weapon takes the shape of a weapon favored by your deity or a weapon with some spiritual significance or symbolism to you (see below) and has the same threat range and critical multipliers as a real weapon of its form. It strikes the opponent you designate, starting with one attack in the round the spell is cast and continuing each round thereafter on your turn. It uses your base attack bonus (possibly allowing it multiple attacks per round in subsequent rounds) plus your Wisdom modifier as its attack bonus. It strikes as a spell, not as a weapon, so for example, it can damage creatures that have damage reduction. As a force effect, it can strike incorporeal creatures without the reduction in damage associated with incorporeality. The weapon always strikes from your direction. It does not get a flanking bonus or help a combatant get one. Your feats or combat actions do not affect the weapon. If the weapon goes beyond the spell range, if it goes out of your sight, or if you are not directing it, the weapon returns to you and hovers.
Each round after the first, you can use a move action to redirect the weapon to a new target. If you do not, the weapon continues to attack the previous round's target. On any round that the weapon switches targets, it gets one attack. Subsequent rounds of attacking that target allow the weapon to make multiple attacks if your base attack bonus would allow it to. Even if the spiritual weapon is a ranged weapon, use the spell's range, not the weapon's normal range increment, and switching targets still is a move action.
A spiritual weapon cannot be attacked or harmed by physical attacks, but dispel magic, disintegrate, a sphere of annihilation, or a rod of cancellation affects it. A spiritual weapon's AC against touch attacks is 12 (10 + size bonus for Tiny object).
If an attacked creature has Spell Resistance, you make a caster level check (1d20 + caster level) against that Spell Resistance the first time the spiritual weapon strikes it. If the weapon is successfully resisted, the spell is dispelled. If not, the weapon has its normal full effect on that creature for the duration of the spell.
The weapon that you get is often a force replica of your deity's own personal weapon. A cleric without a deity gets a weapon based on his alignment. A neutral cleric without a deity can create a spiritual weapon of any alignment, provided he is acting at least generally in accord with that alignment at the time. The weapons associated with each alignment are as follows:
chaos (battleaxe)
evil (light flail)
good (warhammer)
law (longsword)
The mounted sentry goes down, the arrow and disembodied hammer were too much for him.
As much as he might prefer otherwise, Kib scurries forward to stay near the human, his only ally nearby.
Magnum targets the horse pen and throws the hammer.
The light hammer tumbles and lands well short of the pen as Magnum botches an easy throw. The hammer smacks down on the ground not more than 20' in front of him and a deafening roar from the heavens and ground seem to shake the very earth in a 60' radius casting powdered snow into the sky like a huge mist.
DC 20 FORT save or stunned for 2 rounds including Kragg, Magnum and Kib.
The blast envelopes the northern group and the main camp and Magnum has managed to stun himself with the cast of his hammer. The hammer returns directly to Magnum's hand, but as he is stunned he can't grab it and it drops behind him into the snow. 2 dwarves, 5 of the waking horsemen and 2 dwarves are stunned too.

Round 4
"Dammit Kibble!"
Brask doesn't try and find any targets in the blast area, instead he moves up and over 20 feet to get closer to the corral. He calmly takes aim at the sentry at the gate. His arrow flies straight and true.
He thinks about giving further orders, but he trusts the others to do what needed to be done.
Fort for Kib
Brask puts a lethal shot into the mounted sentry and he falls to the ground. The others in the corral mount up and head out into the snow towards Hon's hiding place with javelins and lances.
Two of the newly mounted bring a string of horses outside the corral for the others. The disappear into the fine, misty snow stirred up by the huge thunderclap of the hammer.

The stunned Kragg watches a burly dwarf dressed in undergarments with a big mug of beer stitched on them and a pair of boots stalk out of the mist with a greataxe. "Human-hugger, you are going down." The stunned Kragg watches him put his axe between Kragg's legs and easily trips him.
"Surrender and you live."
One of the sentries with a rapier threatens the fallen Kragg too.
Recovering from the stunning blast, Kib squats and picks up his dagger and then scurries forward 10' through the snow, his short legs having a tough time of it.
Thograt wades through the snow within the darkness spell and redirects the glowing hammer to attack the Mounted man in O44
Khazad makes his way forward, eventually overtaking Thograt. "Keep'em focused on that hammer mate, so that they don't notice us"
Just waking up from being stunned, Kragg is surprised to see a dwarf standing in front of him holding his axe. Not sure if this is real or not, Kragg gets thrown to the ground. Realizing that this is indeed real, Kragg knows that this dwarf is the only real threat if he can delay another round. In that round the alchemist's fire will be out and the humans won't be able to see Kragg that well. If KIb could pull some fancy magic to blind the dwarf then Kragg would be back in the midst of the fighting.
Sense motive on the human huggers line
Who're you callin me a human-hugger? You're travelin with humans: the pot callin the kettle black.
Kragg will keep his hands up even though he doesn't say surrender.
If the dwarf does grab the Urgrosh Kragg will be ready to stand up. Hopefully the Dwarf will have both hands full and not be able to take an AOO.
Suddenly recalling that he does have something which might help Kragg out in this situation, Kibibblepep reaches into his scroll case and pulls out a scroll.
