After some muffled grumbling over being awaken, Dolgrim readies his sling, makes sure that his axe is within reach and peers into the darkness to see what is out there.

Dolgrim will hold his ground and attack the first enemy possible.

Hearing Fenwick, Guntram nods and readies his weapon.

Gerhard nocks an arrow and lets it fly at the wolf's throat...

OCC: Do the humanoids appear to have missile weapons either readied or available?

They appear to have only hand-held weapons - from this distance, and in the moonlight, they could be swords or hand axes, it is hard to tell.

Oberon advances slowly with a view to meeting the enemy within short range of missile fire but slow enough for the party to launch a

"Fighters advance, archers volley, wizards...wizard!"

Oberon roars and bellows; if they don't know they're outnumbered this might give them pause for thought.

Fenwick is startled by Oberon's approach, but rolls with it, seeking out the victim he will charm.

"Finish the wolf and they're done for." Yells Oberon.

[Morale check 2d6=10]

Oberon bellows, yet the humanoids charge in, swords drawn, yelling what Fenwick understands as Goblin. The wolf charges alongside them, snarling in anticipation.

Initiative Party 5 Goblins 4

Dolgrim fires off a sling stone at the group that flies wide.

Gerhard fires off a volley of arrows at the wolf, both sink into the wolf's flank and the creature yelps in pain.

Fenwick thinks he is close enough to ensorcell one of the humanoids, he utters the words imprinted in his memory, and the nearest Goblin stops in his tracks. You can see he is looking back and forth at Fenwick and his Goblin friends as they run past him.

Oberon, Grimma and Guntram meet the charge and weapons clash. True to his weapon's moniker, a mighty blow of Oberon's
morning star cracks the skull of one Goblin, dropping him before he can strike. Grimma moves in with her sword but can't connect a solid blow. Sleepy Guntram swings his flail but also to no effect.

The one Goblin still in play rushes at Grimma but she easily sidesteps his sword attack.

The enraged wolf leaps, his fangs finding purchase in Oberon's thigh, drawing fresh blood.

Those who fired missile weapons last round can drop them and join melee this round, or stow them properly, but if they stow them they have to wait a round to enter melee. Firing into melee is possible but not advisable due to the risk of hitting an ally.
