Bashnag gets that much needed final strike on one of the crocs, the beast winking out of existence and back to whatever weird layer of the Abyss it came from.

One croc, one barb, one cleric remaining. Gnutmyx is up.

[Little bit confused where everyone is without an updated map, so the below might be full of assumptions. I'm assuming since Ullo moved to J13, that B2 moved to K13 and C2 to L14 in order to stay in range for their attacks?]

Gnutmyx looks around at his allies; they all were in pretty rough shape from the battle - except for him of course; the great dragon has protected him once again. Pushing aside his desire to cower on the emptier side of the battlefield and enjoy the smell of cooked bullywug, he puts his shield back toward Ullo and trudges through the swamp back toward the frogthing flinging spells at his ally.

Slowing down as he arrives, keeping his shield high, his clawed hand darts out around the shield to try to grab the frog's arm to give him a refund on the negative energy he kept trying to funnel into Ullo.

[Moving to J14 to touch da froggy. Channelling Status into Inflict spell. Maybe AoO from one of the crocs, depending on which one is still alive?]

Your assumptions about placing are correct, will update map after we resolve this attack.

AOO from F2

20 vs AC. That's a miss I believe.

AOO from B2 as you attempt the touch attack on him.
23 to hit.
14 damage and that's a concentration check DC 24.

If you succeed I'll forgo his save as tbh, I completely forgot Inflict had a save so you guys haven't been rolling them either, can't believe you guys didn't call me out on that. XD

Anyways, Concentration check to continue.

[Is there something unusual about this situation? Normally Gnutmyx doesn't incur AoO while casting as long as he has his shield, as a result of the Shielded Casting feat. That's why he hasn't incurred AoO previously for the same spells, at least. Still, I've attached a concentration check here just in case.]

No just me forgetting that fact as usual.

Retract that second AOO.

So, Gnutmyx scampers away from the croc who snaps at his heels but gets only mouthfuls of swampgrass. He skids to a halt, throws up his shield to counter the incoming thrust from the bullywug and clamps his clawed hand onto the outstretched arm. A burst of foul negative energy flows down the cleric's arm into the bullywug's. His eyes go wide as the energy floods his system. One eye milks over then falls out, the arm comes off in Gnutmyx's grip and the remains of the bullywug slump into the fetid water.

That brings me round to the croc that will now take a snap at Bashnag.
10 to hit.

It's a half hearted effort at best now that the cleric who summoned him has gone.
Maggot is up.

Fresh map incoming.

Also, think I misread Gnutmyx's intentions and he's killed the barb rather than the cleric but hey, I've done the map now so I'm sticking with it.

Ok, Maggot will take a shot at F2.

7 + 9 = 16
Damage 6

A simple shot, but well aimed, the bolt sinks deep into the thrashing croc.

That's a big oof.

It's infuriating, Ullo. The stench of the swamp, the sodden ground shifting underfoot, the bullywugs with their freaky fucking eyes! It's enough to put a man off his swing. Twice. Ullo clenches his teeth as the unarmed frog avoids his blows.

Kwelzucht, you're up.

Satisfied with the result of his spell casting, Kwelzucht decides that his companions can finish the job and that he should save his power for possible other encounters later this night. He tries to disappear from sight, by hiding in foliage or behind a tree.

Kwelzucht disappears into the shadow of the central tree. Easy to overlook a small kobold on a moonlit night.

C2 doesn't have much left up his sleeve... or indeed any sleeves at all.
He will 5ft step back to L14 and cast Fog Cloud, 20ft radius centered Bottom Right corner of Maggot's Square.
The Fog envelops the following squares.
E 13-14
F 11-16
G 11-16
H 10-17
I 10-17
J 11-16
K 11-16
L 13-14

Is he casting defensively? Ullo moved to K13 last turn, and would still be adjacent to L14, affording him an attack of opportunity.

My fault for not taking that into account.

17 is a miss, but I rolled anyway in case anyone else gets a swing.

Bashnag, that second hit will do it.

The bugbear throws the last of his strength into two big hits against the croc and sends it back to the abyssal depths from whence it came... it poofs into dust at least.

Brings us up to Gnutmyx.

Gnutmyx, shield held high (more to hide behind rather than out of any particular martial training), trudges directly forward through the fog, checking for the frog that was just immediately in front of him a moment ago. He wants to give him another taste of his shield.

[A chain of contingencies here; bear with me. Full move, he's moving in a straight line from his current position in J14 until he exits the fog cloud, presumably at M14.]
  • [If he 'bumps' into the bullywug by seeing him in any square within 5ft of him (K-L-M 13, K-L-M 15, N 14*), he will stop and attack the bullywug with his shield.]
  • [If he exits the other end and can't see the bullywug anywhere, he'll stop and turn around to face the cloud.]
  • [If he sees the bullywug when he exits the cloud but isn't in range to melee attack, he'll move his remaining distance to the bullywug and attack if possible.]
  • [If he sees the bullywug when he exits but the bullywug isn't in range after moving the remaining distance, he will expend his standard action for another move action and move again, until he is within melee range of the bullywug, just to lay down threat.]
* Original post said N 16, I meant N 14.
** For some reason my numbers in my signature that I left for myself missed the WF and the Enhancement bonus. The below should be +11, so just tack on +2.

He's still in L14 as you move forward (halting your own movement in K14). Gnutmyx takes an attack with his shield but the bullywug easily avoids the thrust.

From this high up you have a good vantage point over the fog cloud. It doesn't help you see what's going on in there, in fact if my understanding is correct, you're the only one not currently enveloped in it. You haven't seen anyone emerge from it yet though so safe to assume the enemy cleric is still within.
