Buni Takes out the two swarms nearest him with two powerful blows.
SW1 Moves into Aruzhal's space and attacks... Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 8 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 3 rot grubs.
SW2 Moves into Aruzhal's space and attacks... Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 18 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 2 rot grubs.

robin Sends a blast of fire at the grubs around Aruzhal... To hit: 20 Damage: 19
Gunnar You have a swarm of grubs in your space. Buni, to your East 5 feet, as multiple swarms in his square. T.A.N.K. Aruzhal is 5 feet north of you, with 2 swarms in his space. Buni is directly south of you, with multiple swarms in his space. Gunnar is SW of you 5 feet, with one swarm in his space. 5 feet to your NE is a swarm not in anyone's space yet.
Aruzhal You have two swarms in your space. Swarm 3 and Swarm 4 are nearby, 4 directly East of you 5 feet, and #3 10 feet from you to the NE.
I am not updating the map as it is fairly impossible with these grubs sharing spaces with you. Hopefully the above helps. There are only 3 swarms not sharing someone's space, #4, #3, and #12. #12 is 5 feet SE of Buni.
Gunnar weaves a pattern in the air with his battleaxe and the blade is wreathed in a ghostly green flame as he swings into the mess of grubs at his feet.
Attack: 23 Damage: 13 plus 1 fire damage.
On a hit, green flames spread to one of the swarms next to Buni, doing 9 fire damage.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Gunnar With green flames flickering around his weapon, he strikes the grubs all about his feet, decimating half of the swarm with ease. The flames burn into some of those around Buni as well, eliminating many fromt hat swarm.
T.A.N.K. Staying put (all of the grubs are either in melee with your companions or are next to them, so you do not have to move to attack any of them at this point. You attack swarm#4 and take it out fully.
Aruzhal moves to step away from the grubs near him, they both get attacks of opportunity as you leave their reach. (Their reach is 0 feet, so 5 feet away is out of their reach.) Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 17 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 4 rot grubs. Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 16 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 2 rot grubs.
Dex saves: 4, 5, and 11
Buni is now up. You have 3 swarms in your space. Gunnar has 1 in his space, Aruz has 2 in his space. There are 3 swarms in no ones space, #3 NE of Aruz and T.A.N.K. #12 and #14 both SE of Buni.
Update, aruz has none in their space, but has moved so that 2 swarms are N of T.A.N.K. and #3 is East of Aruz now, with the swarms #1 and #2 flanked between Aruz and T.A.N.K.
((No, not moving so he can attack, moving to draw their attention away from his fleshy companions, I'd still like to have T.A.N.K. move it possible, into the densest area. T.A.N.K. wants to tank.))
Buni smashes his hammer down between his legs, then tries to bite the swarm, hopefully killing at least something. (Honestly, all swarms should have immunity/damage capping from piercing damage.)
All attacks are made recklessly, targeting each swarm in his space until it dies, then moving on to the next.
((No, not moving so he can attack, moving to draw their attention away from his fleshy companions, I'd still like to have T.A.N.K. move it possible, into the densest area. T.A.N.K. wants to tank.))
Ok, then you can either move 5 ft north and be in the space of 2 of the swarms, or east 5 feet and south ten feet to be in the square of 2 more of the swarms. The one to the SE are near Buni, who already has 3 in his square, while the ones to the North are near Aruz, who has 3 near him as well. How do you wish to move?
Buni Pounds his weapon into two of the swarms, completely smashing all of the grubs in one swarm, and halving those in the second, without remorse. He then bites into a smaller swarm, finishing that swarm off as well.
Waiting to hear where T.A.N.K. moves to before I post swarm actions. Also, please let me know if any of the swarm attacks have hit, and if they hit as we move on. I need to track infestations...
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
T.A.N.K. moves SE and into the space of two of the swarms. (Still going to just have him take out #4 prior to moving, as that leaves it easier to move forward and 1 less to be attacking Aruzhal.
SW1 moves and attacks Aruzhal Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 1 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 2 rot grubs.
SW2 moves and attacks Aruzhal Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 18 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 1 rot grubs.
SW9 Attacks Buni Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 20 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 1 rot grubs.
SW12 attacks T.A.N.K. Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 8 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 4 rot grubs.
SW14 attacks T.A.N.K. Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 12 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 4 rot grubs.
SW16 attacks Gunnar Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 9 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 1 rot grubs.
SW3 moves and attacks Aruzhal Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 18 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 1 rot grubs.
SW15 Attacks Buni Bites. Melee Weapon Attack: 6 to hit, reach 0 ft., one creature in the swarm’s space. Hit: The target is infested by 1 rot grubs.
It looks like Aruzhal recieved a bite last round and another this time. His AC is listed as 18 and there have been two bite attacks with a to-hit of 19. If so, then he is infested with 3 rot grubs. Everyone let's have a nature check. I did Robin's in the game log and she recieved a 12, which is not enough to know about what infesting rot grubs might mean.
Buni rages, then swings his maul twice. First at SW10, then at SW7. Both attacks are made recklessly.
Attack: 26 Damage: 10.
Attack: 21 Damage: 14.
