Kornelius makes a devastating attack with his bastard sword, chopping the arm of one of the orcs halfway off.
Manfred chops at one with his longsword but does not kill it.
The orcs see that they are being attacked from all sides and spread out to meet each opponent. The orc the Kornelius attacked drops the axe from his limp arm but another orc rushes up to attack Kornelius landing a solid hit.
The orc Manfred slashed swings ferociously but with more rage than skill.
The orcs that turned back and attacked Ovirid and Larjen swing wildly still surprised to find they'd been surrounded.
Three orcs hang back cautiously.

Round 1
Manfred -- ACTED
Kornelius -- ACTED
Orcs -- ACTED
Ovirid
Larjen
Ovirid will make a 5' adjustment toward Larjen's position, then. And he will take a wicked swing with his light pick, driving it deep into the orc before him.
Light Pick Attack 1d20+5=25, Damage 1d4+1=4
Confirmation roll 1d20+5=18, Crit damage if needed 3d4+3=13
Blood sprays from the nasty hole Ovirid has put in one orc and temporarily blinds Larjen.
Sir Manfred focuses on a single attack on the one in front of him:
Longsword Attack, Damage: (1d20+8=14, 1d8+4=9)
Kornelius misses on his attack.
The orc falls off of Ovirid's pick and onto the ground.
Another orc's attack misses Manfred.
Kornelius manages to avoid one orc's axe only to get hit by the other orc's axe.
Larjen, blinded by the spray of blood takes a solid hit from one of the orcs and is sent reeling.
"Larjen, m'boy! 'r ye alright?"
If Ovirid is still on his feet after that little bit of clumsiness, he will move to aid the stricken halfling.

Larjen manages to wipe the blood from his eyes this round but he's swinging wildly with his sword and doesn't hit the laughing orc.
Sir Manfred Round 3
Shifting a step to cover Sir Kornelius' flank, Sir Manfred continues to work over his opponent.
Manfred's attack has brought down another orc. Only two remain threatening you. Three others, the ones you sheltered from the storm, are hanging back.
Kornelius decides to retreat cautiously.
The orc that was threatening Kornelius swings at Manfred instead. His greataxe hits shoulder armor but connects hard enough that Manfred feels his shoulder almost dislocate.
Ovirid manages to avoid the greataxe swung at him.
Ovirid returns the attack against the orc that most recently swung at him.
Light Pick Attack 1d20+6=7, Damage 1d4+1=2
Ovirid returns the attack against the orc that most recently swung at him.
Light Pick Attack 1d20+6=7, Damage 1d4+1=2
The orc easily deflects Ovirid's pick by bashing his forearm against the shaft, and then, pulling back, tears the pick out of Ovirid's hand. Before the orc can finish chuckling, Larjen puts a sword between his ribs.
Sir Manfred VonFalkenburg, sometime round 4.
Sir Manfred makes a sword attack on one orc and a shield bash attack on the other one.
Longsword attack; shield bash attack: (1d20+4=18, 1d20+2=10)

When I make an attack with my longsword and shield bash, with my Two Weapon Fighting feat, I am at -4/-4; so total bonus is +4/+2.
Ovirid draws a throwing axe from his belt, but attempts to take the orc by surprise by slamming his shield into him.
Light Shield Attack 1d20+5=14, Damage 1d3+1=2
Manfred's attack has brought down another orc. Only two remain threatening you. Three others, the ones you sheltered from the storm, are hanging back.
The orc attacking Manfred is howling now for the three others to get into the fray. Manfred is tearing him apart. He's looking wildly around and shouting orders. His axe comes close but is deflected at the last second by Manfred's shield.
The orc attacking Ovirid is boiling with anger. He can clearly see that the three others have betrayed them and are staying out of this fight and letting them die. He swings at Ovirid but he is looking only at the traitorous kin. He misses. Ovirid's shield bloodies his nose and annoys him all the more.
Larjen is no help here.
"Larjen, lad! If'n ye're up to it, git around 'is other side 'n put 'at sword betwixt 'is ribs agin! 'N if'n ye're not, git around so's 'e 'as to worry 'bout where ye be! Jes' don' git yerself killed, eh?"

Sir Manfred Round 5
Sir Manfred furiously attacks both opponents.
Longsword slash; Shield Bash: (1d20+4=14, 1d20+2=3)
Sword damage if hit; Shield bash damage if hit: (1d8+4=9, 1d4+3=6)
To mostly harmless effect.
Ovirid's next round:
Attack 1d20+6=14, damage 1d6+1=4, sneak attack damage 1d6=2
OK, this is attacking with the throwing axe as a melee weapon rather than throwing it. I did not include the flank bonus to the attack since I don't know if there is one, but I included the sneak attack damage, just in case.
The orc Manfred is fighting seems to be toying with the idea of surrender but decides instead to make one last sweep with his axe. Enraged, desparate, and barely standing, he chops a large chunk of hardened dirt up from the ground but misses Manfred completely.
The orc that is fighting Ovirid ignores Larjen as he slips around and sticks a sword in his back. He's still standing but he is also on the ropes. His greataxe falls clumsily and misses Ovirid.
Sir Manfred, Round 6
Sir Manfred continues to attack his last opponent:
Longsword, Shield Bash attacks: (1d20+4=18, 1d20+2=7)
Longsword, Shield bash damage: (1d8+4=5, 1d4+3=5)
Sir Manfred, Round 6
Sir Manfred continues to attack his last opponent:
Longsword, Shield Bash attacks: (1d20+4=18, 1d20+2=7)
Longsword, Shield bash damage: (1d8+4=5, 1d4+3=5)
The orc falls. Only one orc remains fighting and he is flanked by Larjen and Ovirid. That orc swings his greataxe in a wide circle, trying to force Ovirid and Larjen back and gain some room to escape. He misses.
Manfred:
You notice that the three orcs who were hanging back have ducked behind the strange warmachine.

Longsword, Shield bash damage: (1d8+4=5, 1d4+3=5)
"'at's a good lad. Ye keep swingin' shoulder-'eight whilst fightin' short folk and we'll be fer gettin' along jes' fine."
With that, Ovirid fakes an attack with his small axe but clobbers the orc in the face with his shield.
The final orc from the five that attacked you falls to the ground with a heavy thud looking like he's been knicked to death. He's not dead but he's not conscious.
Except for your laboured breathing, everything is quiet.
The other three orcs--the ones that chose not to fight you--have ducked down behind the warmachine. The warmachine appears to have some kind of battering ram on it, but it isn't easy to make out the purpose of some of the other gear.

Yelling up to the other three orcs in orcish:
To the others, "'r ye all right? Ye're fer lookin' pretty rough, lads. What Ah'd be fer givin' t' have that noisy spellcaster 'n 'is wand right about now."

As Ovirid moves to search the orcs bodies, the three hiding orcs reappear with greataxe's in hand. They've fanned out a little so that two are coming from one side of the contraption, and one from the other.
They shout in orcish:
"Hands off their coin. We take the fallen."
Eyeing the strange contrapion the last three orcs ducked behind, Sir Manfred sheathes his sword and massages his sore shoulder. Silently he gives a fervent prayer to Iomedae, thanking her for his new armor; without it that great axe would have sheared right through his arm.
"I am well enough Sir Ovirid. I took a minor wound in the affair; Sir Kornelius is badly off though." He turns to aid Kornelius, wishing he knew more of the healing arts. Something about tightening bandages? Then as the three orcs shout and approach, he turns to face them, readying shield and sword.
"What, NOW they attack? What did you say to them Sir Ovirid?"
