I assume it's difficult terrain..Makon has moved one move action...I just need to know if I can see our enemies at the start of next round.

Makon, it is a stepped down hole in the ground. They have excavated and found that glowing ball thingy

Quintus launches another volley of arrows at the ape man leader.

Makon hustles forward to close in on the battle with his friends. Makon double moves to current position.

All enemies in this wave are vanquished.

A cheer goes up from the camp’s defenders as the last of the charau-ka are slain or forced back out of the palisade wall’s breach. Haggard yet determined, the defenders quickly begin piling wrecked logs in the breach to prevent the charau-ka from making another easy attack.

A horn sounds from the west side of the camp, and then the east, and then from the tower. The lookouts shout, They’re coming over the walls! and the camp’s defenders run to meet the charge.

Which side will you move to bolster. Basically this big fight is going on and we play out one of the sides, so pick on and the defenders will cover the other 2.

We can hold the gate, bottleneck them there! shouts Quintus.

So our choices are east side or west side? Any discernible difference between the two?

Also, if the golem is staying with us for the 2nd part of the fight, I am happy to relinquish control to someone else for this bit. No reason for me to have all the fun - maybe Makon, who I unwittingly stole it from before the fight would like to give it a go?

One of the sides closest to the dome is my vote.

You can go east, west or defend the tower. Pass control of the monolith over to whoever you like.

Makon agrees with a enthusiastic nod to Quintus suggestion, Yes let us stand our ground here! We've held them so far! Gorum favors the bold! Here is where we stay!...Here we hold them!...Here is where they die! Makon points his axe towards the oncoming enemy and shoulders his bow.. Let them come... growls the 1/2 orc with grim determination. Makon shoulders his way through his friends to be able to face the enemy first.

The gate is the tower? I'm cool with doing the tower /gate.

Ok, Outpost is looming on the horizon so I am going to push the pace here a little to get us done in time. I know at least one of you has registered a character from this game for Outpost.

A wave of enemies assaults the gates. They mass outside teh walls ready to climb and assault the camp.

His mouth is almost foaming with bubbles of spittle as he works himself into a frenzy as the hoard approaches before the first one comes within reach of his deadly blade, Makon steps outside the breached wall and takes a wide arcing strike with his great axe. MW g axe and Powr att: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9dmg: 1d12 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17 Makon #@*^! curse in disgust at having missed such an easy target as the large Apeman.
