The room is 40' wide by 60' long, and there is a door in the north wall (I'll give better mapping directions later)

The walking corpses are about 20 feet away, the archers about twice that. I figure that to turn undead, you have to be pretty close (about 10' or so) so it makes sense for Aldbane to advance towards the corpses and attempt to turn

Yes, Aldbane will advance as close as needed.

Wiglaff advances with Aldbane and will engage the corpses in melee. He directs his Elven Spear-folk (Sera & Tauriel) to engage from the 2nd rank, and orders Yolenna his apprentice to grab some holy water from Edgar the porter and throw it.

Actions so far declared are:

Aldbane: turn zombies
Maloof: holy water at zombie
Wiglaff - melee zombies
- elven spear back up Wiglaff from behind
- apprentice Yolenna throw holy water at zombies
Franklin - silver bullet at zombie
- archers at skellies

I will let coffee decide what to do with Rhod, but if no answer in next day or so, it makes sense for him to melee the zombies, fighting beside Wiglaff

Balbo and Drogo whirr their slings at the skeletons, and the unerring missiles crush the bones of two of the skeletons, sending them rattling disjointedly to the ground. Franklin pulps the head of one of the zombies, toppling it over. Maloofs vial of holy water soaks into the zombie's face, and starts dissolving it as the zombie claws at its smoking body, before succumbing, but Yolenna's vial misses and shatters somewhere on the floor past the other two zombies.

The remaining two zombies turn their heads and stare at the party, and from their eyes come glowing red rays of light. They frantically dodge, but both Aldbane and Wiglaff feel a burning, searing pain, as some beams connect with them. The five distant skeleton archers fire, and poor Balbo takes a debilitating wound, but he is still on his feet

Aldbane abjures the monsters to flee, and the remaining two zombies shuffle away towards a far corner

There is no melee

Franklin tells Balbo to 'stay back!' while he and Drogo target the skellie archers.

Aldbane wades into the skeletons, bashing them with his silver war hammer.

Franklin orders Drogo to hold fire (so he doesn't accidentally shoot Aldbane in the back). Franklin draws his sword and joins the melee.

Maloof readies another vial of holy water, but does not throw it yet. He waits upon the return of the zombies or some other monster.
