Is there another highly threatening looking enemy target available? i.e.
Caster, Archer, Brute, Dragon?
If it's casting or shooting, Continual Light on the eyes.
If it's brutish, Levitate it.
If it's a dragon, Polymorph it into a chicken. (Standing order, all
non-metallic dragons, on sight. Highest priority.)

(OOC - large scale battles are a mess)
The goblinoids go first. Three more of Elmore's troops will drop, Patrick,
Charlee, and Wallo are now down. Chonz and Davide are moving to protect
them, while Wally is moving to bash someone's skull in. At least three
goblins and a hobgoblin went down. Ahearn will kill a bugbear before it
gets a chance at Hagar. Xander feels a stiffening run through him, but he
throws it off. It will take two swings for Johnny to kill a bugbear,
leaving one on him. Xander's fireball kills off a couple of bugbears. The
primitive-looking men are badly burned but are still coming. The shaman is
still there but looking a bit toasty. The bugbear shaman is yelling
encouragement and the goblins are still in this fight. Sean solves that
problem by killing the shaman and then the final bugbear on Johnny. Ahearn
hacks Hagar's remaining bugbear to pieces. Agatha puts two arrows into the
hobgoblin like things. Holly can see Claalgulp killing sleeping goblins.
Elmore is able to drag Wolfgang back for care. Nesgrous is pushing his men
together on the left flank. Wally is sort of trying the same on the right
flank and Agatha is adding a few encouraging words. This leaves Civar who
is looking for something in his sack. Digging fairly feverishly.
Holly thinks Cizvar is looking for a weapon of some sort. Hard to tell.
Johnny, Hagar, and Ahearn will notice these primitive men are a bit
otherworldly looking, their skins are grey and they move in a uniform
manner. Their eyes are nearly black. They are only emitting a low groan.
Actions?

Other actions? Elmore is tending to one of his wounded, Ahearn is trying
to clear a path for that. Hagar and Johnny are hacking away. Sean actions?
Bugbears or the more primitive men? Holly is flying near Civzar, who has
been lagging a bit. Xander is in the air, doing?

Holly will drop her fireball (I think that is the last one on the shaman
and body guard. She makes a big hole in the column. Sean will agave a good
round killing two of the bugbears comeing towards Wally. Agatha will kill a
hobgoblin-like creature. Elmore will hold two of them near the center
(innermost sections of the right flank).
Cizvar seems to be considering a rock tossing. He is getting one out, but
hasn't acted yet. Hagar takes 12HP from a goblin with a really lucky hit
and a bugbear spearpoint. Hagar kills the lead bugbear. No one hits
Johnny. Johny kills a large but singed bugbear. The goblins bring down
Wolfgang and Geblew. About four goblins drop.
Wally casts sleep on the far left flank taking down a number of hobgoblins
and a few goblins. Ahearn will kill one more bugbear.
Holly will see a squad of odd primitive looking men shambling into the
fight behind the shinged shaman.
Actions for next round?

Well, then, they haven't got a prayer. Everybody knows it was the pas de

ability to fire three well enough aimed shots in a minute put an end to
that.

Sean will fly back and defend the casters. If they are being attacked by

Are the droolers coming at us with the pas de charge beat?

The attackers break into view goblins, hobgoblins, and bugbears, Johnny
and Hagar are both mobbed by bugbears and goblins. Which do you want to
focus on first? It is possible some will potentially pass you to get to the
casters.
Elmore, Xander, and Wally see a large number of goblins and
hobgoblin-like creatures pushing towards them from both flanks. Plus a more
Napoleonic French column coming at Johnny and Hagar made up of bugbears and
goblins.
Ahearn and Agatha are on the fair right flank with lots of goblin and
hobgoblin targets.
Actions?
