Storm King's Thunder

There is now only one, badly-wounded, orc riding through on his axe-beak, and both take the disengage action before fleeing 50 more feet towards the town center. The orc grins evilly as his axe-beak chases down a halfling villager trying to make a mad dash for his home...

The one riderless axe-beak also disengages and follows the lead of the lone rider. 

Meanwhile, the orogs are closing in fast, now less than 60 feet away from you and well ahead of the lumbering giants. Their greataxes glint in the sunlight. 

// Players up! //

//Assuming I'm reading this right then the orc rider is 50 feet away//

Darathrea seeing the orc rider attack a villager she is sworn to protect she'll exclaim 

"You will not harm my people!"

Followed by chasing after the orc rider (her warhorse has 60 ft of movement) and taking two slashes at the Orc with her Greatsword

Attack 1: Attack: 14 Damage: 14

Attack 2: Attack: 10 Damage: 10

Angel seeing the Orog's closing in will manuever within 30 ft of one before lashing out with a flurry of Ki Sun Bolt Strikes (spending a Ki point to do a bonus 2 so 4 in total all on one Orog unless he dies halfway through and then onto the next Orog)

Sun Bolt 1: Attack: 26 Damage: 7

Sun Bolt 2: Attack: 10 Damage: 5

Sun Bolt 3: Attack: 13 Damage: 4

Sun Bolt 4: Attack: 12 Damage: 7

Flint casts sacred flame on the axe beak which is chasing the halfling:  Dex DC 14 or 10.

Othovir will attack that axebeak (or the other one if that one falls) with flaming bolt Attack: 24 Damage: 3

Noting that his allies are taking care of the escaping axe beaks and orc, Ink turns his attention to the orogs... 

//DM question - still same formation 2 - 3 with 10' to 15' of space between them? //

Othovir then breaks cover and chases the axebeaks.

Ink tells Narth, "Focus your fire on that orog Angel hit..."

Narth takes aim with his hand crossbow and let's loose! Attack: 9 Damage: 3

Ink, focuses on the same orog, and just in front of him, a small glint of fire begins to appear.. And in front of the running orog a Flaming Sphere appears instantly causing tendrils of fire to run the orog. (DC 15 DEX save, 5 fire damage on failure, half that on a success)

Ink, not waiting to see the effects, flicks his wrist to the left and the  Flaming Sphere smashes into the orog adjacent to the one just burned on the front line, a trail of fire in its wake. (DC 15 DEX save, 5 fire damage on failure, half that on a success)

 Quill being out of position to safely buzz the orogs circles above awaiting for the right opportunity.

//Going to sleep but to keep action going, on previous turn, Narth will use his bonus action to hide (Stealth 19)... Sorry about that, not forgot he could do that.........

On next turn if you all get there......

Ink will cast grease under the feet of the closest lead orog as they should be right upon the group... And use his bonus action to move the Flaming sphere to the last lead orog he previously hit. (DC 15 DEX save for both spells, FS causes 8 damage on a failed save, half on success...)

If greased orog does not fall prone, Quill buzzes him to create advantage then flies out of reach. Otherwise Quill buzzes the other lead orog.

If greased orog falls prone, Narth will run up and slice with his short sword then disengage and retreat. If greased orog does not fall prone then Narth shoots him with his crossbow.. Either way he should have advantage (from either grease or Quill) and damage is the same, so....

Attack higher of 5 or 7 Damage 4....... //

//woke up and saw no activity, so I'm scrubbing this post so that I can properly react to the situation as it unfolds. //

Marav shifts his hunter's mark to the wounded Orog //unless the flaming sphere took it out or will hit us then we will move to an unburning one, no friendly fire wanted here... get it... friendly FIRE... :-p//

Urgala nudges Marav toward the Orogs readying her morning star again. All her combat reflexes back and in full force.

Marav Attack: 24 Damage: 8 + HM: 1

Urgala Attack 1: 12 Damage: 6
Urgala Attack 2: 21 Damage: 11

//If one dies shift to the next.//

Marav Attack: 18 Damage: 13 + HM: 6

Urgala Attack 1: 20 Damage: 8
Urgala Attack 2: 12 Damage: 10

Now Marav and Urgala are surrounded by 4 angry orogs...

//Well for what it is worth this was a fun game. :D //

"Dammit, Marav - I don't think that's the kind of retirement she was looking for!"

//This completely changes my strategy but I might be able to pull something off kind of cool - hopefully Marav and Urgala survive.  Seriously though, when our turn comes around, let me go first and try to see if I can change the battlefield some before you all start swinging.//

//Marav can take some hits... might revert me temporarily back to an orc, but I can take up to 80 HP and still be able to come back again as a full HP dire wolf... hoping to save that for the giant portion though.//

// Yeah, I know you'll be fine... it's Urgala that I'm worried about. //

//Right because you can heal yourself with spell slots, right? That's why you can extend the Dire Wolf beyond it normal 37hp cap. Druids - they make good tanks. //

// Quick note on where we stand. Marav has rushed forward towards the second wave with Urgala on his back, about 50 feet north of the rest of you, and 4 orogs are all within about 15-20 feet of them. They killed the 5th orog, taking advantage of the earlier damage Angel and Ink had done to it.

There is one axe beak who seems to have halted its aggressive charge, about 50 feet south of you. This axebeak is all that is left of the first wave.

The third wave (the fire giants) are still at long range. I believe it is Rip & Foehammer's turn—can either of you do anything from 50 feet away to help Marav and Urgala? //
