Since them spotting us was what I wanted, I continue to walk forward unhurriedly and unthreateningly (although my weapon is out, I am carrying it rather than weilding it), hoping the rest of my group of four follows my lead.
I ignore A1's "stop", continuing to walk forward, but say Bring out this Boss, I would speak with him. I will continue to walk calmly, but on guard. Should the axewielder do anything combat related (such as look like he will attack if I do NOT stop), I will stop, snapping my battleaxe up to a readied position and drop into a readied stance with my shield held up towards the axewielders. My goal, however, is to make it to row 26, so I can "talk out in the open" (which is what I would say if he asks)

Joshua curses under his breath as he realises his spell limitations. Still, nothing ventured...
He strides forward making sure he stays behind Todarr and his protecting armour.
"Mardrek. I suggest you come with us but stay behind Moreen. You are less likely to be a target then."
As he walks he considers his remaining options, but decides to wait until he sees the enemies reactions as well as to see if this 'boss' turns up.

The axe wielders close on the party slowly. The second axewielder pipes up.
"He said stop. I suggest you listen, unless your flesh is longing for the taste of cold steel. "
The one in front starts to step towards the back of the house. "Paolus, come over here. Paolus!" He steps further, and spots the dead bandit. "Damnit! Boss, they killed Paolus! What do we do?"
The door of the house opens, and a man in a grey-black cloak emerges holding a gnarled staff. "Return the favor, of course!" he says, in a gravelly voice. "Kill them. Kill them all!"

Instantly reckoning the new arrival as the most dangerous Joshua thrust forward his staff, pointing directly at the grey-clad man.
"To Belos Ischyros!" the arcane syllables cause the hair on his arms to stand on end, but he is well used to that.
A bolt of force streaks towards the enemy and impacts.

Karis briefly contemplates remaining hidden, but she cannot resist the temptation to get in the first strike. She hurls a dagger at the man with the staff, then darts behind the house, hoping no one will have noticed where the dagger came from.
[sblock=ooc]standard: thrown dagger at the boss (he's not on the map so I'm not sure if I have line of effect to him; if not, I guess do it against the nearer axe guy. That might negate the range penalty. I made the attack at +9 (+1 level, +4 dex, +3 prof, +1 rogue dagger affinity, +2 CA, -2 long range) and hit AC 17 for 16 damage.
Move: behind the house to G-16. Not sure if I need a hide check, since I'll have total concealment from all enemies that I know about, but I'll go ahead and make one anyways, at -5 from moving more than 2 squares (boo!): 11

Rellek was thankful for not having been spotted and let loose with his arrows, praying they'd fly straight and true.
[sblock=OOC]
I'd also like to hit the robed guy, but am not sure if I can or not. To save hassle, I'll roll for him first, if that's no good then take the second option for the others.
Against robed magic user, since I'm closest so I'll get +1 for prime shot, be using twin strike dex v AC, (oh bother I rolled two 5's +6 (Bab + prime shot)= 11:> bleh!)
If I cannot hit robed wizard I'll go against thug A1 I'll make him my hunters Quarry, and first: to hit 22, 11 Damage. A2 24 to hit, 9 damage...

Karis springs into action, stepping from behind the statue and plunging a dagger into an axe wielder. "Ahhhh!! What in the gods?!?!?" The axe wielder turns around, but Karis manages to slip behind the house before he can figure out what happened.
The leader turns towards the house. "Lethani! A second chance presents itself. I suggest you use it wisely!" The elven archer from the last encounter makes an appearance. He streams out of the door and heads to the west end of the house, turns, and fires an arrow at the party, but it lands at their feet.
Joshua's bolt of force slams into the leader, and a look of shock appears on his face. "A decent shot," he huffs while breathing heavily. "Let's see what you think of THIS!" He lifts his staff and extends his arm. Lightning shoots forth, first hitting Todarr, then hopping to Moreen, and finally landing on Joshua, scorching each along the way. The leader then ducks back into the house. "Get them!" he yells from inside.
The axe wielders take a few steps forward. They reach to their sides in unison and chuck hand axes. The first tosses one at Moreen, but it flies wide of the mark. The second hits Todarr squarely in the chest.
Without a bead on the leader, Rellek takes aim at the axe wielders below, and strikes both. "Boss! They got an archer on the roof!"
