Legandir grins wildly at the dark blood seeping from his wound and, unable to hear the words of Lmluin over the din of battle and pounding of blood in his ears, instead hews his way into the orcs before him with wild sweeps of the gleaming Morfil.

"Yrch pnaa!" he hisses.

Soval Orc-Bane will stand his ground, hewing left and right and encouraging the others -

"Hold fast, fellows!"

Soval eyes the landscape for the most likely path of retreat, in the event that they must break and run, so that he may help the others along it. A weight grows in his heart as he sees so many of his men fall; they knew the dangers, but he cannot help but feel sadness at having brought them here to die in darkness.

Arbenbard continues his mad dash to the entrance of the mines. "Nat! The camp is lost, take shelter!"

Baraglin observes the actions of Lmluin, Legandir and the others and is struck by realization that these Elves and Half-Elves are true hero's with bravery bordering on madness. He also knows deep down that he lacks that same conviction, with a "gulp" in his throat he shouts more encouragement, hoping desperately that the battles turns before his courage does.

OOC: Fingers crossed for lucky dice this round!!!!

That shape of the battle is becoming apparent to those involved. The churning melee is arrayed something like this...

OOC: Bit more over extended then w had hoped perhaps. Hopefully we can drop a high % of those behind the lines. There seems to be one right behind me, that better me my target for this round.

Sili's winning strategy is a high orc body count. He smashes all orcs within reach!

Thanks, Ways.

Lmluin makes straight for the Orcs approaching Eohild, thundering his battle-cry to try and draw their attention onto him.

If I'm reading this right, Eremin will duck down and to the right (on the map) so as to have the holly tree at his back and to be on the opposite side of the orc Hallam is fighting; that way we can concentrate on that one.
