Umbriel looks down at the giants, and whispers "I have to concentrate on keeping Lygheid invisible, but when it's go time, I can get drop that and get close enough to cast that bit of darkness at the Duke if we need to."

Baeshra looks around at the top of the cliff, "I can also cast a couple spells from up here, to take advantage of the water and knock them around. We could also drop some rocks on them from up here if we'd like as well. I can also shift into an eagle to go pick up more rocks to drop."

" I can light them up with some bolts of light from here...."

The giants walk up the river and start pointing when they notice the dam.  They are now within 200 feet of the dam.

(Are there large rocks up top here we can drop down? And how far is it back down the canyon the way they came?)

Yes, plenty of rocks and boulders are around you.

It's 300 feet from the dam downstream to a sharp turn in the river where you wouldn't be able to see the giants any more.

Baeshra turns to the others, "Wait until they're on the dam, when their footing will be bad, then start dropping rocks and spells on them?"

Umbriel nods, and readies himself for action.

OK, is anyone else readying an action?

Ireniana will ready an action to drop rocks as well. 

Whistler readies his action to help push the boulders down.

Baeshra prepares tidal wave DC 15 dex save or 23 bludgeoning and prone, half on a fail.

Nyx will also ready an action to help with pushing a boulder down.

Lyngheid will ready a Guiding Bolt if they are close enough, otherwise boulders.

The fire giants approach the dam, excitedly.  They stop about 30 feet from the dam.  Zalto looks around, and then scans the cliffside above but doesn't appear to notice you.  He sends the other 3 fire giants to the dam, while he and his hounds stay back.

The three fire giants approach the dam and start to tear at the rocks, breaking it apart.

If your held action was to drop a rock, make a Strength check to see how accurately you can push it, and state your target.

Otherwise, release your spells! 

Umbriel will drop concentration on Lyngheid's invisibility, and will use a combination of movement and the Blessing of the Raven Queen to get within 60 feet of Duke Zalto, and then he'll use two sorcery points to cast Darkness on the Duke's Head. With any movement he has left, Umbriel will drop behind cover.

 Baeshra releases his spell. (If I can get both the duke and the giants on the dam with the 30' effect of the spell, he'll release it right as Umbriel casts his darkness. If I can't get them all, I'll target just the three on the dam as Umbriel begins to move.)
