OoC: If you've got coordinates and such ready, I can do the actual drawing of a map. I'm getting a decent hold of using layers for (relatively) easy management of such things even with a mob of characters around.

Here's an abstract, Dalamar can try to put it into a map if he has the resources.

The island is of roughly a 5,000' radius.

On the north shore, there is an elaborate dock, adequate for a full sized pirate ship to moor at. The dock has two enclosed rooms with roofs on them, each of which rounds off to 10' x 10'. Connected to the dock structure is a depot with the supplies you've been asked to destroy. You can't tell if the depot is manned, but it's a 50' x 80' structure.

Towards the center of the island is a fort, 150' x 150' there are several buildings inside.

For whatever reason (bedbugs?) a number of the pirates have elected not to sleep in the fort, and instead have a variety of scattered campfires about the island. There are about a dozen of these in random locations, with about 3 to 5 men at each fire.

The party is on the south by southeastern shore of the island. Jack is about halfway from there to the depot, moving stealthfully.

OOC: We do need a map. The group is not particularly stealthy, and does want to stay close to Jack. So we want to attack a campfire that is fairly close to the depot, without our having to sneak too close to any other campfires on the way there. 3 to 5 pirates per campfire, though, we could ambush two of them at once, perhaps.

OoC: Here's a very quick-n-dirty map lookalike. Red dot is main group, green is jack, blue are campfires, grey is fort, brown is the dock and depot. Note that each square is roughly 450ft. by 450ft.
I wasn't sure if "towards the center" for the fort was a direction from the dock (in which case it could be rather close to the dock), or a location (in which case there could be as much as 5000ft. between the fort and the dock). I used the former interpretation though the distance is pretty long as it stands (over 2,000ft).

[Sblock=Jack]Jack sneaks between the campfire with ease, though he's somewhat nervous as he can clearly hear the others clomping along some distance behind him. As he aproaches the dock and the depot, he realises that his work has just begun... the area he's coming to is well lit, and he'll be seen if he isn't very carefull.[/sblock]

[Sblock=Others]You've followed Jack as best as you can, and you think he's pretty close to the dock now. Unfortunately, you're no longer clear as to where he is, but suspect he's close enough to act on any distraction you can provide.[/sblock]

Iggy is eager to attack before his group is spotted, as he knows they're not very stealthy. He's still somewhat worried that they've taken the wrong side. "Does anyone know how to detect evil?" he asks the group. "Do you think we should just attack one of these campfires? If so, I could try sneaking in myself & casting my color spray. That way, none of them would die."

"I have learned that prayer, but I haven't asked Lady Phyrah for it this morning. If you have doubts about the pirates, we can try to knock them out rather than kill them."

Before he proceeds, Jack scans the area for any details that might be pertinent to his sabotage... Guards, exits and entrances into the storehouse, ships and boats docked at the pier, and the like...

"If you want my opinion, the death of some of the men would do more effect than simply the attack there buidlings. They can always rebuild, I doubt they will want to ressuresct everyone..." tells Opale, with a tone in her voice that let's say that she is not that interested by the idea.
