Bohyi will fall in next to Illindir, axe at the ready. He grins at him, and states, "Looks like we might run into some goblins down here eh? Should be a good time."
Oh! Thank you, Tersus.
I look around at the rest of our group and head for the sewer grate and disappear down into it.
Ekkie, slow down a bit, I'm not very good at being stealthy, and I'm afraid you're too good at it
Henric will draw his longsword and follow the direction of Ekkie. Doing his best to keep her in sight while being stealthy and perceptive.
Finding myself near the back of the group, I cross over to the other side of the sewer and attempt to catch up with Ekkie and Henric while checking out my surroundings.
Acrobatics:
Stealth:
Perception:
Maybe we should spread out, who thinks they can make it to the other side?
P.S. I'm a bit clumsy
Ilindir nods to Bohyi, a hint of a grin crossing his lips:
Hopefully, no more than we can handle…

Ekkie leads the party through what seems like an endless series of sewer channels. Goblin sign is prevalent, and the multitude of tracks would make it nearly impossible to determine any particular way to travel without her assistance.
She comes to a stop along a particularly long stretch of channel, and turns toward Henric. Get ready. We is getting close to nasty tribe hidey place. Be quiet...we sneaks up on them! Nasty ones make fun of Ekkie, make fun of Ekkie's tribe. I shows them. I going to stick nasty one with floppy hat!
She turns and proceeds up the channel, fading into the shadows...
out-of-character: Fingers crossed...
And to try and avoid getting totally lost down here:
(Sorry guys)
I am almost up to where Ekkie and Henric are, but on the other side, close enough to hear what Ekkie says to Henric before she darts off. I dart after her . . .

oooohhhh look, a wall.

Absalon moves to the middle of the group, looks around and sees a fair amount of armor and those paid to swing implements around. He smiles inwardly, and thanks providence for fashioning those willing to walk up to angry people swinging thier implements while the enemy swings back, giving him the time to unlease fire, electricity, magical energy, invectives...
Smiling from ear to ear, Absalon says, "Lead on brave warriors."
I catch up with Ekkie then keep even with her, following where she is leading.

Despite your best efforts, the group is unable to sneak up on the enemy. Fortunately, Boyhi, Cily, Ekkie and Ilindir spot the goblins in time to warn the group (there is no surprise round for either group).
Roll for initiative, and we shall start combat! A new sewer map has been added to the FB files, showing the starting positions. The map has a grid, so once the round starts you can reference your actions by using the map references.
Example: Cily wants to attack goblin #3 in square G15. She would state her actions by announcing her move, followed by the appropriate roll:
I move from G19 to G16 and attack with my short sword.
Attack Roll:
Once everyone completes the initiative roll we will do standard rounds in that order.
The goblin's initiative roll is:
Please observe the rules for jumping across the sewer channel, previously posted. If such is part of your move action, then an acrobatics roll with armor penalty applies.
Initiative:

Initiative:
Henric. Your rolls rubbed off on me!!!
Assuming I'm going fairly early, Henric will move up to E17, then jump over to G17. Double move should give me a fair shot. *Fingers Crossed*
...Of Course...
Well,
.. Why not? ..
Then (can I do this much in one round? Else, next round)
Ohhhh that was gross! Careful everyone, that edge is slippery
I'll decide about getting up when my next turn comes around.
- Hey John, can I try for checks to sicken my opponent with my sewage drenched outfit?

Girdark is away from the keyboard, but we will figure out what to do if he is not back by the time we reach him in the initiative order
INITIATIVE ORDER:
- Henric
- Ophelia
- The Nasty Goblins
- Absalon
- Ilindir
- Cily
- Ekkie
- Boyhi
- Girdark
Henric:
Henric tries to jump from E17 to G17, but slips! Arms flailing, he tries to recover his balance, but he falls into the sewer channel at F17! The only good news is his torch stays lit, because it is magical. He can try to climb out onto the walkway to G17 in the next round.
Ophelia: Your move...
Ophelia says a quick prayer to The Dawnflower and, with her holy symbol as a focus, calls forth a Divine Favor spell, which will grant her a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls.

Goblin 1: Hops from D15 to E17 and tries to strike Henric with his Dogslicer, but misses.
Goblin 2: Fires an arrow at Ilindir which misses, soaring overhead and disappearing into the darkness.
Goblin 3: Moves from G15 to G17, flanking Henric. He cackles seeing Henric struggle in the sewer channel, and manages to slash him with a Dogslicer for 4 damage.
Goblin 4: Moves from E12 to E14, and fires an arrow at Ilindir, which strikes for 1 damage.
Goblin 5: Moves from G12 to G16 and attacks Henric with a Dogslicer, but misses.
Goblin 6: Moves from H10 to G15 and fires an arrow at Boyhi, which strikes for 3 damage.
Absalon: Your move...
I watch the unfolding battle with great interest, planning several possible attacks, from my stealthy concealment in the shadows. I cringe when 3 of my team mates are injured!
Sorry John, but Goblin 3 looks to have rolled a 14 total. My sheet shows my AC at 17. I don't take any minuses for being in the slop, right? I'll check my online stats to make sure they're right.

Okay, I cannot move without dodging by Illindar and Boyhi.
But my magic missle should still hit the goblin at E1 right. If so, I will keep the above rolls.
Questions/Clarification:
1. You can always move through a square occupied by an ally. So, you can move if you wish.
2. I presume you mean Goblin #1, who has moved to E17? The magic missile will automatically hit, but you need to reroll the damage, as the spell at first caster level does 1d4+1 damage.
Ilindir moves past Ekkie, up to E18, and takes a swing at goblin 1 with his fullblade:
(to hit); (for damage if the hit is successful)

Absalon mutters a phrase and makes a complicated gesture with his fingers. A shimmering ball of force launches from his outstretched hand, and flies into Goblin #1, causing the creature to cry out.
Ilindir swiftly moves up the walkway and hits the creature with a sweeping stroke of his blade, killing the goblin.
I move to G18 and attack Goblin #3 with my shortsword+2.

Crit Confirmation:
Damage:
Pathway to goblins cleared, Bohyi runs from B 24 to B17 and attempts to Jump the sewer, axe raised over his head ready to strike to goblin in E15.
With a mighty roar, veins bulging and axe ready, he hits B17 and
Jump -
Assuming he clears the channel and lands on the other side,
Attack -
Let me know if the 7 hits, and will roll for damage
Jumping from b17
Girdark jumps from e27 to g27, then charges behind the cily rogue charging 5 with both weapons.
Jump-
Henric will wade through the muck to F13 and attempt to climb up to G13 (one square buffer from #6)
I believe this is a double move, so Henric will take a defensive posture.
