I'd prefer total input myself. This is purely for time based purposes - it may require some retconning, but otherwise any battle could take ages!

I would prefer the 'turn by turn' approach.

Edit: I also scribbled down everyone's Initiative rolls to keep track of when I'd be up, and I think the following is correct:
Code:
Mal/mount	26
Zalgrin		21
Grazik		18
Gell		12
Kusque		 9
Rada		 5
Smith		-6

All at once, it might take more time with redoing actions that no longer are possible, though it'd be quicker than turn by turn.

EDIT: Your saying the camp is aflame is just description right, I didn't actually light something on fire?

I don't know if I'll be outvoted on the combat method, so I'll post my current intentions just in case things move on when I'm not here. I'm planning to move to within 30ft of Hassnak and use Command on him to get him off Sorunnar, using either the 'approach' or 'flee' (preferably 'flee') command to try and force him through someone else's AoO range. DC19 Will negates.

What timezone is everyone in, anyway? I'm in GMT (+0).

@ GnomeGninjas

Can you specify an endpoint for those 40feet?
Straight up north would mean your mount would take the square with the corners: P 10/Q 11

@ rweird
I said 'alight' as in 'bathed in light'. You haven't set anything on fire ... yet.

Happy Birthday Re'ozul!

Man on Fire: When you attack PA for 8 you would have done +16 damage not +8 because your weapon is two handed (unless you have feats/class features for a higher PA multiplier).

Everyone: We should try to get the other Orcs out of here, Rada in a frenzy can do some serious damage and we don't want anyone getting hurt, Sorunnar hopefully can get out on his own, he seems pretty confident that he'll be okay.

Oh, so combined bonus to damage would be +31, right? I'll remember that.

Yes, I'm pretty sure it would be, or 31+damage dealt to you (burning retaliation).

Only if the rest of the gnolls duck behind the huts without Rada noticing. So long as there are some enemies around (and within reasonable striking distance I guess), everyone else is safe.

I need to update my sheet for the Brooch of Weight (currently feather side active). I was planning to drop some things off back home before we went out to the human camp and then redo the whole sheet, but then we got into a fight so there went that plan.

Happy birthday Re'ozul, enjoy the new hardware..

Zalgrin delays to Grazik's initiative, Grazik cast Master Air, sharing it with Zalgrin. Grazik moves to 10 ft. above Zalgrin. Zalgrin will charge the Gnoll at D|28.

Charge/Improved Grab:

I changed my mind about hitting Hassnak. Is that okay, or do I need to stick to what I wrote originally?

By the way, how is the initiative for the gnolls and the hunters being handled?

I have a huge list with everyone's initiative. Every single being has its own initiative. Since I haven't yet resolved anything you can still change your action.

Default Re: Orcs of the endless and unconquered Forest (OOC)

After looking at the rules and the map I don't think I can do the other action (charge and attack to the centre hut), since the corner of the hut is in the way of the most direct route and while I can charge to the square southeast of the gnoll at D26 I'm not sure if that's direct enough for a charge attack. Is it?

I'll stick to the original action since there's been enough of a holdup (sorry guys), but I think I'll try and pull Hassnak towards me so that Rada can reach him on her next turn.

Move: A41 to J32, drawing sword.
Standard: Command:(approach) on Hassnak, DC19 Will negates. Next use, Round 6.

IC post being written now.

It occurs to me that if their plan was to get killed and spread the word that we shot first, we shouldn't be killing them.

Oh well, on with the stabbing.

We will have to spread the word that they shoot first and that Rada tried to end it without bloodshed.

We should try to take some of them prisoner if possible, I plan on blinding Hassnak next round with Blinding Spittle, if we take him prisoner we might be able to decrease the damage done.

@ Grazik

Tell me if I am missing something. You rolled for algrin's rake, though you need to start your turn grappling to use that from what I read.
Or did you mistake Rake for Rend?

EDIT: also there is no gnoll at D28, I assume you meant D26.

Further Edit: @Gell since there is no gnoll at P11 I assume you mean P13

The tiger's pounce says "If a tiger charges a foe, it can make a full attack, including two rake attacks."

Yes I think I meant D|26

He's pretty close to Rada though.
