OOC: So it does. I guess Nars needs to clean his glasses.
IC: "I'm, er, not sure I should, ah, that is, I'm no, er, great warrior like Gorefoot. I could, ah, go in and, er, make sure the way is, ah, clear. Then I could, er, blow my whistle to, er, ah, signal the attack. Then, I'll, er, still be invisible, and, ah, look for a weak point to, er, strike." Nars holds up the signal whistle he carries around his neck.

"Let's try to get a good night's sleep. I don't know if there's any hurry to getting up in the morning. I double the battle will last all day. I'll send Fridly up at dawn. He can scout the place out before it gets full daylight, but while it's light enough for him to see. He can fly high enough to avoid goblin darkvision. We'll all move into position then. We should all take turns watching though, as the goblins might send out a raiding party tonight." suggests Percy.

Battle plans
OOC: I think we should draw up battle plans in some detail, since I suspect we'll get a chance to attack on the morrow, and we don't want Erekose to have to make a bunch of assumptions. Here's our forces and what we plan to have them do. Please help me out everyone.
Percy: Climb tall tree (w/rope, & Nars' help) before dawn. Or maybe just hides with others in forest.
Fridly: Surveys the battlefield at dawn, then returns to Percy.
Ridik: Needed near the front to heal the warriors in battle.
Nars: To be turned invisible to clear/claim the path in (probably through the gap in the wall). But how will Percy turn him invisible if she's up in a tree?
Gorefoot: Come around the North side, hugging the cliff. Will charge gap once battle starts.
Rodimus: To be turned invisible to clear/claim the path in (probably through the gap in the wall).
Nezrak: ? haven't heard from him in awhile.
Cenerieth: class? combat style? weapons?
Nomads (20 or so): Take up positions under cover of trees and bush and begin shooting. Move in if/when appropriate
Lor: who's this guy again?
Thorns(5): Attack w/Gorefoot & Ridik
Treants(2): sneak up before dawn, 'awake' some trees and have them move closer. Move in to attack at signal.
pixie: fly in w/Gorefoot & cause trouble.
Petal: fly in w/Gorefoot & cause trouble.
Dryad: must stay w/in 300 yards of her tree. Not sure what use she is in an attack, actually, though Percy will spend some time bonding with her, asking to comb her hair, and generally being very impressed with how pretty she is.

"I can cast some protective spells at Rodimus, Nars and Gorefoot, since they're going to be heading for the front lines.", Nezrak says.
Nezrak will wait somewhere away from melee (Preferably to Fireball Giants or Goblins) until the action starts, and then try to make his way towards the people in melee to cast Haste.
OOC: Nezrak casts Enlarge Person (+2 Str, -2 Dex, -1 AC, 5 minutes) and Cat's Grace (+4 Dex, 5 minutes) at Rodimus, and Protection From Evil (+2 Deflection to AC, +2 Resistance to Saves, 5 minutes) at Rodimus, Nars and Gorefoot. These castings should probably happen just before people leave to attack.
Sorry.

The night passes safely, though that is probably the advantage of camping with a small army at your back. In the morning Cenerieth and the thorns confer with you all on the plans ahead and the pixie brings news, "I took a peek inside the fort last night. The goblins definitely know something is up out here. They are getting nervous and the giants are getting difficult. Their boss is a really mean customer, I think he is a Barghest, a foul demonic creature that feeds on the souls of those it eats. I hope not, but all, including the giants, gave him a wide berth and did exactly what he said to them."
