As the large warforged steps by him and opens himself to attack, the half-orc slashes out with his sword, cutting the creature's bicep and helping thwart it's attack.
Varak steps around his dragonborn ally and past the little warforged, drawing it's attack, finally into a flank with the enemy that just escaped him. Slashing at the creature's back, Varak doesn't even look to see if his blow hurts the creature before rolling back and slashing at the little one, then spinning and cutting a third.

"Maybe, but first you have to get me!" Varis mocks the construct, his magic blade attach causing it to stumble backwards as the bard reaches his allies.

That's fine to switch to War Song Strike. Also, I put you as close to AL47 as I could. There's some Difficult Terrain in the way at AN45 (hard to see I know) [/sblock]
Haltor nods at Harresh's request but first focuses on the larger 'forged, lunging forward heavily in his saddle with this sharrash. He smacks it once on the construct's head before cutting it open. As the construct's attention is drawn away, Haltor quickly glances at Vist, signaling him to be ready. He then dances away. The warforged tries to swing at the shift halfling, but Haltor dodges it, however Vistrathis fails to capitalize on the opening.

Feeling the stinging of his wounds, Vistrathis only has time to mutter a response back to the dragonborn before going back to the job of keeping three foes occupied.
"Sorry Harressh! Busy! Do what you must!"
Vistrathis moves about and parries a few weak thrusts from the warforged, deflecting them with the invisible force shield that he projects from his off hand. Seeing a possible opening, the swordmage swings his blade in a wide arc all around him.
"Vi es'shur fash de'an tu!"
Light and heat leak from Harressh's scales, scorching the nearby small warforged.
"All right, then," Harressh growls, stepping back and opening his jaws. A roar of sound emerges, but it seems muted, perhaps because of arcane feedback from the still-sparking machine. Shaking his head, the dragonborn tilts his neck back and breathes out a barrage of stubby, sharp ice projectiles which blanket the area around the small warforged and the one that was attacking Varis. But again the spell is a feeble one which the warforged are able to easily fend off. Harressh curses loudly.
"These units have proven to be adept at overcoming elemental extremes. Moving on to physical assault mode, we have our target" the large warforged in the corner says, turning its sights on Vistrathis.
The unit charges at the githyanki, but he parries the blow, however a massive assault from behind slams Vistrathis in the back of the head, and the warforged's blow carried into Varak.
The smaller warforged feints one way and sends Vistrathis off balance, then it suddenly shifts its weight and gives him an uppercut to the jaw, sending him spinning to the ground. The smaller forged says
"This unit has neutralized one threat, moving onto test subject number two" as it moves next to Harresh and Varis.

Everyone goes first. Would you guys prefer a more free-formed Initiative style? I.e. the common Mal's Rules method. I'm indifferent. Regardless you all go first.
Terrain: Rubble on the floor is difficult terrain
Haltor; Vist, Alex, Harresh, Varak, enemies (1d20+6=17, 1d20+6=10, 1d20+4=21, 1d20+4=23, 1d20+8=24, 1d20+5=10) <- I rolled for Alex instead of Varis, still go first[/sblock]
