Is it possible for Ithelus to start where he has a clear line of sight to the little gits by the door? I'll post as if that was true considering your comment about positions but let me know if that needs to be changed.
Sure, let's stick him abreast of Lothar. No-one ahead of you two, though - as was specified earlier, Lothar took the lead.
Ithelus is stoic and quick to shoot, even in the face of fat imps from a disease-riddled hell! *swoon*
And then the swarm us and we all die. Likely of Dysentery.

I know, but I dislike metagaming like a dislike... well, I dislike a lot of things. Metagaming is really high on that list. Lothar's meant to have problems with focus, so I gave him a low WP. I stand by my decision, I just like to make fun of myself.

I actually came up with Ithelus's past gambling addiction because he had a low WP.

And I like to poke fun. I get what you're saying, I just think I'm funny.
A quick question for you, LCP. I mentioned I was gonna cast my armor spell at the top of the stairs but Lothar stopped me from goin outside. Could I have still gotten it off pre-battle or must I blow a moment doing it now?
Oh, and WP roll vs fear. (1d100)[49]
I shall FP it if it's a fail. I think I have 1 fortune point.
Since it seems a lot of the group is frozen and defenseless... Illiiya shall step up. If the answer on the armor spell question was yes, she shall step up to try and cover her party, assuming a parrying stance with her little short blade. If the answer is no, she'll step up and cast the armor spell. Post to follow shortly.

Even in our current situation, I tend to think of WP as a stat of secondary importance for non-wizards, because only three rare skills are based on it. When was the last time we had to roll a WP test against fear or insanity? I think it goes back to the battle in the Cathedral, when Morsleek's bell crashed, but I may be wrong.
I say, always have high Int. These Perception tests, they're important.
Guys, don't spend your Fortune Points too early in the day! You'll regret it if you suffer a leg wound and fail your Toughness test vs limb loss.
I can get a wooden leg to replace mine if I lose it. I cannot get a wooden mind. And Illiiya is dangerously close to losing hers.

Yeah, sure. I must have got a bit absent-minded in not throwing in a response acknowledging it, but I definitely counted that casting roll as having gone off.
Regarding the stepping up - the Nurglings are too small to physically block out a square, so I'll assume that Illiiya pushes the frozen-in-terror Ithelus forwards onto them in order to get a position on the 'front line'.
Going to make the combat rolls here, so I don't have to post IC then edit:
Map
Spoiler
Ithelus is pushed forwards by Illiiya, into the same square as the Nurgling attacking him.
The Plaguebearer makes a Charge Attack on Lothar: (1d100)[15] (+10 for Charging only – Illiiya’s presence is stopping the daemons from claiming outnumbering bonuses) (1d10+4)[8]
A hit to the left arm. Looking back, it says Lothar put on his mail shirt, but not the coif or leggings, so he gets his armour points here - I assume he also put on the padding for the shirt, so that it's 3AP not 2. In which case, 2 wounds to the left arm.
Gonna houserule that now Lothar has been hit for actual wounds, it snaps him out of the Fear-trance automatically (although he still has to roll to break out of the effects of the Unsettling talent). It’s just silly otherwise.
Back to the Nurglings:
The rightmost Nurgling attacking Lothar jumps on Ithelus: half move, standard attack. (1d100)[76] - miss (1d10)[5]
The Nurgling already on Ithelus makes an All-Out Attack (1d100)[47] - miss (1d10)[8]
The Nurgling by the door makes a Charge Attack on Lothar. (1d100)[31] - just missed. Potential Parry from shield in off-hand (I assume Lothar has it out): (1d100)[81] (1d10)[10]
The other Nurgling already in contact with Lothar (in the Plaguebearer’s square) makes an All-Out Attack (1d100)[12] - hit, body.
Potential Parry: (1d100)[87] - failed (1d10)[7] - 1 wound after soak.
Damnit, I forgot that Nurglings have A2. Thanks to our houserule about all-out attacks, though, that's OK - I can just roll the additional attacks now.
I was hoping to get the frozen folk behind me until they recovered, but I can see how cramped quarters made that difficult. At least Ith wasn't hit. Kinda worried about Lothar though.
In any case, let's do this thing. I will not go gently into that good night!

Sorry, Chris. You gotta be specific when we're using these maps, or I'll get it wrong!
I think it'll be fine to have Illiiya pull Ithelus behind her, but the Nurglings will get to make attacks as he moves out of contact. I presume that's OK.
Drew: do remember that Channelling is a WP test, not an automatic success. Doesn't matter here, you'd cast it without the bonus, but it is important.
Speaking of which, turns out daemons are susceptible to spells like Drop. My first thought was that they'd be immune, but it turns out that's just Undead.
Heck, I probably should have put some rolls in that post, shouldn't I?
Nurglings attack Ithelus as Illiiya pulls him out:
(1d100)[77] - miss (1d10)[4]
(1d100)[57] - miss (1d10)[5]
Plaguebearer makes a Standard Attack on Lothar, using its Natural Weapons now that it's been disarmed. (1d100)[31] - hit Parry - (1d100)[26] - parried (1d10+4)[7]
It then attempts to Manoeuvre him diagonally backwards to start making headway towards the squishy wizard lurking at the back: Plaguebearer - (1d100)[68] vs. Lothar - (1d100)[94] - looks like a success
