Surprise Round
Seeing the plan fail and ready to take it into plan C Mogwag will charge during the surprise round (Arcane Strike: Swift).
Current AC 26
Warrok will move in closer to the ogres along with his wolf, but they will try to remain in hiding, waiting to see if reinforcements will arrive.
Seeing the party is starting without him, Malgrim kicks his mount into a run and levels his lance at the nearest ogre, snarling invectives in goblin.
[dice=Charge]1d20 + 10
[dice=Damage]1d8 + 4 x2 = 22
Ok then. I will retcon this somewhat but if life affects any of you, please drop a line. It doesn't take long and it certainly helps.
Malgrim, due to the fact that the party was stealthing I had your character hanging back, as horses do not stealth well. So round one, the surprise round you can close and strike. It takes a partial charge to do so.
I am detailing this so there is no confusion.
game on.
When he sees Runt begin to strike, a wide grin spreads across his hobgob features. He slams his fist into his palm hard and barks, "That's the cue, lads! LET'S SPILL SOME BLOOD!" and with that, he will charge at the nearest ogre, moving with steady-footed purpose as he stalks toward them.
turgrim, could you roll to hit and damage.
Waiting on draxia and turgrim.
Anol, frustrated that the plan has failed, urges Husom into the fray. Drawing his katana while on the move, he halts the wolf steady to study his opponents.
Draxia rolled her eyes and seeing the others charged in she stayed in her position and cast a spell.
Both ogres stagger struck by powerful blows.

Round 2
Taking full use of the surprise created Mogwag strike on his enemy moving behind them in order to set up a flank for someone else.
Draxia's body flares up in the glow of red and gold as she fires off two magic missiles, that loom like red gold spears at each Ogre.
Turgrim moves around the ogre, grinning at Mogwag when he swings his falchion. "Your orcblood is showing, Mogwag!" he howls in exhilaration as he circles carefully, keeping the ogre exactly between the cleric and himself.
Preparing himself, he unleashes a devastating one-two punch, keeping his feet firmly planted in the fighting style of Hobgoblin Ironskin Monks.
Malgrim pulls back on the reins causing his charger to rear up and lash out with hooves and teeth at the ogre he is engaged with. Malgrim also jabs the ogre with his lance.

Round 2
Taking full use of the surprise created Mogwag strike on his enemy moving behind them in order to set up a flank for someone else.
[dice=falchion] 1d20+10; 2d4+10
Mogwag, defending bone cannot be cast on Runt as it has a range of personal, and a target of you. It could be cast on you. Also as a tactical note, ogres tend to use clubs, which go through the spells DR 5/bludgeoning.

The party is now at the cave entrance, with two very dead ogres before you. The head of Brek still gazes upon you from the pole.
"Check the bodies, they might have keys, goods, or something different like gold or gems.You never know what might be useful" She says as she looks them over.
At the cave she sneers and looks at Runt."I think your kind must have no sense of smell as this place smells worse than an orcish whore house"
Malgrim prods at the bodies with the tip of his lance, but does not dismount to check them. As he looks around, he again notices Brek's head noticing them. Without a word, he rides over and pulls the pole down so that the head is face down in the dirt. "I don't like being stared at" he mutters.
Draxia finds little of value on these corpses except fleas and stink.
It seems that one voice is giving orders, and the ogres seem willing to wait for you to enter.
Malgrim dismounts and orders Draagech to guard the entrance to the cave and alert me if anyone approaches. After all, we wouldn't want anyone coming up behind us, would we? He then takes the greatsword off of his back and prepares to enter the cave with the rest of the group.
Warrok joins the rest, drawing his weapon and preparing to enter the cave alongside Amarog.
Round 3
Move In, Move Fast our target is the Hag Mogwag cast a Divine favor and move inside the cave toward the chief's place
Anol stays upon Husom's back, katana still out as he follows Mogwag into the cave.
Runt rolls her eyes at Draxias comment "It smelled better when I lived here, not much, but better." She said with a shrug before giving Breks head a look and plowing her axe into it, much as she despised her brother she saw reason to force him to live as such a thing if he truly was alive and if not then she was simply destroying something of the Hags. With that Runt would proceed into the cave along with the others. If she spots an other Ogres she will give them a withering glare and a few words in giantish
A reply returns from the cave.
please enter, dear child, and welcome. I look forward to eating your heart, says a female voice, followed by a peal of mad laughter.
In front of you, you see a group of ogres, a hill giant and a large hag.
(Know local rolls). The green figure is the hill giant, who is holding a greatsword. he is also armored in chainmail. One ogre is holding an ogre hook and also wears chainmail
You have the initiative.
"Let clan show hag sharp end of blade!"
You have initiative, you don't need to roll. Go kill em'
Round 1
Mogwag Charges (arcane Strike: Swift), Fighting Def
Current AC 28
Warrok will move and draw his weapon, and cast entangle (DC 14) behind the hag, if possible, so that she and the giant and the 2 ogres are caught.
Meanwhile, he orders Amarog to attack the ogre mogwag is fighting.
"Mind the greatsword's reach, lads!" Turgrim barks, following Mogwag and Warrok's charge cautiously. He glances around the armored, tall ogres and decides it's best to focus on close combat, where his greatsword's reach won't matter. He goes for a grapple on the armored ogre.
Anol rides Husom up to the nearest ogre and attacks it with his katana.
"Mind the greatsword's reach, lads!" Turgrim barks, following Mogwag and Warrok's charge cautiously. He glances around the armored, tall ogres and decides it's best to focus on close combat, where his greatsword's reach won't matter. He goes for a grapple on the armored ogre.
[dice=Grapple check, no AOO on Turgrim]1d20+9
Draxia shuffles up to the rock just past the corner and looks on.
Runt steps forward into the cave and upon seeing no room within which she could maneuver to get at the Ogres, Giant, or even the witch she grits her teeth in frustration as she begins to reign in herself knowing that it is likely best to save her fury for when she can return to open battle. Feeling as if a heavy weight was suddenly upon her now Runt found herself even more thankful for the spellwork of Mogwag. With a huff she scans the room again and spots a familiar face amongst the Ogres, Goor, the youngest of her brothers coming on only a year older than herself.
"GOOR" Runt shouts attempting to draw his attention, perhaps all was not necessarily lost on the idea of reclaiming some part of her kin, Goor was not the brightest by any means but like any ogre he respected family, or at least had.
Warrok will cast Bull's strength on himself.
Anol dismounts Husom, seeing no room for raider warfare in this cave, and strikes at the ogre again. "Gimme a hand with this one, little brother," he says to Husom. Husom roars more than growls, then latches on to the ogre's leg, tripping it in the process.
and trip.
Apologies, some life issyes have made this a bad day. I'll set up the next round tomorrow. Again sorry.
"Mind the greatsword's reach, lads!" Turgrim barks, following Mogwag and Warrok's charge cautiously. He glances around the armored, tall ogres and decides it's best to focus on close combat, where his greatsword's reach won't matter. He goes for a grapple on the armored ogre.
[dice=Grapple check, no AOO on Turgrim]1d20+9
Er, no I guess I don't quite have that level of movement. Turgrim will merely double move to get into position this turn, and grapple next turn. Do you need me to reroll the grapple?
Round one
Mogwag and amarog (warrok's wolf) strike and injure an ogre (top).
28 HP inflicted, trip failed
Hasom, anol's wolf strikes and misses. Turgrim advances and waits for the next round.

The hag chants a spell.
