Val claps his hands and the force sends the two remaining orcs hurtling into a wall and knocking them out. The Captain says, "Good work. Now we should go and destroy the guns."

He rushes over and says to Val. "Heal yourself with the healing spirit and stand guard while I destroy the ship's weapons. Healing Spirit will last for 1 minute. You get a total of 9 heals (Because you used one already) That you can split between the captain and yourself in any proportion.

Battle 1:

Two orcs who were behind Runt were cut down by Gendan's Blazing blade. The heard thins.

Elsara's turn.

(Also Happy New Year everyone)

Happy new year's!!

Covering his wounds Val says. 

“Worry not Captain, the spirit can com with us and we both can benefit from her blessings. Now you seemed upset with your second , what do you think could make him fire upon our allies?  I hope they can manage my friends are very capable fighters...” 

Val will move the spirit with them and helps the captain destroy the weapons. 

(I don’t know 4 heals to Val and 4 to the Captain leaving the last one to whoever is in worst condition after that. 
That was intense I must say :)

Happy new year to all!! ) 

DM: Because Battle 2 has progressed further in time compared to battle 1, waiting on battle 1 to progress a bit before answering Val's post

(Who are we waiting on?)

(I think it’s Elsara’s turn. (Post #5552))

(Yes. I would have NPCd and moved forward normally but IRL stuff got really busy so I decided to wait longer for Poke to take his turn while things get less hectic here.)

(Happy new year. Sorry for not getting back, didn't really have access to a computer during the holidays.)

(So, I think now that the orcs have advanced, Elsara can move into melee to back up Runt. If so, take the below. If not, use spoiler.)

Elsara hurries over to aid Runt against the orcs that charged ahead, swinging her blade in an attempt to knock out their enemies.
Scimitar vs. Orc: 9 vs. AC. Hit: 7 slashing damage.
Scimitar vs. Orc: 11 vs. AC. Hit: 8 slashing damage.

(Actually The orcs kind of just surrounded Runt without advancing much so Elsara would be able to get close to them but not close enough for melee)

Orc E CON: 16

Resisted.

Orc's turn.

Orc E Vs Runt: 23 (Adv: 16 ) Dmg: 9
Orc G Vs Runt: 20 (Adv: 24 ) Dmg: 8
Orc H Vs Runt: 16 (Adv: 24 ) Dmg: 5
Orc K Vs Runt: 22 (Adv: 9 ) Dmg: 8
Captain Vs Runt: 7 (Adv: 10 ) Dmg: 12 + Sneak Attack: 9

Battle 2:
Val's Healing: 8
Healing 2: 5
Healing 3: 9
Healing 4: 9

Captain's Healing: 27

Captain attacks the Dual Shot Ballista on the pirate ship.
14 Dmg: 6
16 Dmg: 10

Forgot Radiant Damage: 6

Battle1:

The Orcs reposition to surround Runt and continue to keep beating down on her. The captain comes out of cover, makes a poorly aimed attack at Runt and then moves away again (Fancy Footwork - No AoO). Runt does not look very good.

Battle 2:

The Captain begins beating the pirate's weaponry with his weapon. He says through his teeth, "Argh! My first mate said he thought he was firing on our enemies. Instead he shot our allies instead. I ordered him to NOT help anymore. At all." He huffs and says, "Here... help me destroy this thing."

Would Gendan’s advances not have eliminated any of the flanking advantages of the orcs on Runt?

(Oh yeah it would have. But Runt recklessed last turn so even without flanking, everyone got advantage.)

Also

Battle 1: Party's turn

Battle 2: Val's turn.

Gendan will circle to gain pincer position on the next Orc. Attack 13 for 6 magical slashing.

If it kills the Orc, she’ll rotate to pincer the next. (The benefit of them all being close in on Runt.) And Attack with her Thirsting Blade. 
If it did not die, then this will Attack the same Orc again. 
Attack 26 for 8 magical slashing.

Valwaryn tries to destroy the weapon aiding the captain.

He will cast shillelagh on his staff and try to use it as levarage to break it or just hit it to break it as the captain sees better.

Val, roll attack.

Battle 1:

Gendan's blade slices Orc G in half. She turns around and stabs Orc H but it doesn't kill him.

Runt, Elsara and Deva's turn.

DM: I really underestimated the jump in power from Level 4-5 characters to level 6 characters. I should really adjust the difficulty in the next mission.

Although Devarus hesitated from seeing Runt surrounded by enemies, the thinning herd compelled the aged half-drow to run after Orc Captain that kept nimbly dancing away. "Do not waver, Ruu! They're only flesh wounds!" He called at some point during the rush forward.

Action: Soldier Rush into melee/as close as possible to the Orc Captain. 

Bonus Action: Fall Back if necessary. If not, using Rally Maneuver on Runt, granting 3 Temp Hp.

The Captain is surprised to see the aged half-drow guard be the one to catch up to her. She is a rogue and is used to being one of the fastest in the room. To see a armed and armored Ex-Guard be the one to out-speed her causes a moment of surprise.

Deva manages to get to the captain but it took both Action and Bonus Action to do ti. No Rally Maneuver.

Runt and Elsara's turn.

(Is this still the same day that Gendan brooded and flew to the crow’s nest of the ship? Just wondering if I still have another feat charge.)

( Attack: 10 Damage: 8 )

@Gendan: No it's not the same day. You have another charge.

Captain attacks Dual shot Ballista: 14 Dmg: 11 + 3
Captain attacks Dual shot Ballista: 23 Dmg: 12 + 4
