"I do not believe we are the party type to silently take them out and they will oppose a danger while we remains within the city. At least we can reduce their numbers, at best, we can eliminate the danger altogether," Silas whispers as he tries to keep track of numbers of the snake men.

Badger might be running low on arcane stamina, but he has two zombies left, and a fight with snake-men is a welcome challenge. He just hopes his companions are up to it after their run-in with the dinosaurs and the viper-cats.... and that the feathered T-Rex stays asleep!

The walled compound. Red dots are dead bodies. Yellow with black outline are the various different types of snake people. The blue dots are you guys. The fuzzy grey spots are buildings with roofs. The section in the middle is rubble. Squares are 5 feet.
If you plan to attack, let me know from where. Walls are 15 feet high.
Note, this whole place is a ruin. You can assume there are sufficent cracks in the walls to see through, and move through, so they're mostly there for cover. Same with the roofs. You can see through and move into through roofs. Based on spending a few minutes scouting around, you're confident that no other snake people are in the compound.
When you have a plan of attack, please everyone roll stealth, and initiative for your turns. If you go before the snake people, please take your action (they may or may not be aware of you based on your stealth roll) :
Snake people init: 8

Badger suggests taking out some of the isolated snake-people first - perhaps the one near the well? at top-right, then come across the top to the next guy, then down to the main group.

"I do my most damage from stealth I can take out the one by the well if you want to focus on the others. When I am done with that one I will stealth down and join your fight.That work for you all?" Mal suggests. "I would not mind some extra damage to my attacks if you are willing."

With a nod of her head Mal will move silently down the wall and then wait for the creature to turn its back to me and then creep forward pulling my rapiers out and attacking it twice.
Mal creeps forward, the rapiers silently emerging from their scabbards as she steps over small stones and around vines and small bushes to approach the man with a snake head. The rapiers both slash viciously into the creature, dark blood spraying across the ground as the creature stumbles forward, horribly injured. (what's the radiant damage from, I can't figure it out on my own. Total : 34 damage from both attacks, right? My understanding of precision attack is you get to see your roll before using it, but you don't know if you've hit or not....but in this case I'm giving it a pass and saying you hit without it, so don't worry about it. )
[OOC: You are correct about the Precision Attack I was misunderstanding it, marking it on my sheet. The Radiant Damage is from Silas casting Crusader's Mantle which I now just read and sees it is a 30' radius centered on him, so yea remove that damage. So total damage would be 26.]
Mandra has been following the group, her usual noncommunicative self as she assesses the situation. She nods in agreement to the idea of picking them off one by one, and follows the group on her tiptoes. After finding a spot with coverage where she can still get a vantage on the lone snake person by the well, she'll wait until Mal has initiated and then shoot a Fire Bolt Attack: 14 Damage: 14

Boris: Stealth: 17. Init: 22
Mal strikes him deep, fire tears through the air from two sources slamming into his body, the sizzling of his flesh as the fire hits is harsh in the previous quiet.
"GAAAAARRAA!!" he yells in pain. (Mal: 'Attackers!')
He turns and runs. Mal, attack of opportunity if you wish.
The rest of the compound seems to come alive as you hear shouts of alarm. The metallic hiss of weapons leaving their sheaths and feet pounding, the strange hissing sound of the snake people chatter as they prepare for battle.
Boris leaps after him, his ice axe in his gloved hands as he charges fearlessly, leaping through walls.
Everyone else let me know what you do. (#1 is the badly injured one)

Sickle Init: 8

With a nod of her head Mal will move silently down the wall and then wait for the creature to turn its back to me and then creep forward pulling my rapiers out and attacking it twice.
Rapier #1 (Assassinate Ability - Auto Crit): Attack: 15 Damage: 6 Sneak Attack: 9 Radiant Damage: 2
Rapier #1 Crit Damage (if the creature is surprised): Weapon: 2 Sneak Attack: 4 Radiant Damage: 2
Rapier #2: Attack: 15 Damage: 10
If the 2nd attack does not hit I would use my Superior Dice "Precision Attack" to add to attack roll: 6
[OOC: I read the assassinate Ability wrong it applies Advantage on my attacks - so should have rolled advantage on my 2nd attack: 16
lol, sigh, damn crappy rolls - So 2nd attack was a 16 to hit, if that doe snot hit, I will use the Precision Attack roll to add to it.]
