The first bugbear shoves Merrick's glaive out of the way, steps forward and smacks him solidly with his morningstar. The hairy goblinoid grins, breathing its putrid breath at the knight.
The metal clad ogre roars mightily, surprised by the wounds that the puny human has dealt to it. It whips its flail back through the air, and Zirat is unable to avoid the blow. While not nearly as powerful of strike as the last one, the wounded gladiator simply cannot absorb such damage. Again he collapses beneath the blow, crashing to the ground.
The blinded bugbear reverses his direction, ducking unseeing back into the chamber from whence he came.
Dismayed that his spell did not blind the ogre, Ciaran is unsure of his next move. Shoon was beseiged by attacked, but the ogre could inflict terrible damage...and if Aeron went down, the entire group could wind up dead. Making his decision, Ciaran chants the words to another spell, pointing his hand toward the ogre. A line of searing flames fills the void between the wizard and his target, blasting into the brute. The beam burns and blackens the ogre's chest, and the great beast crashes to the ground with a heavy thump!
A look of grim determination creases Aeron's face as he brings Pelor's healing power to bear on Zirat yet again.
Seeing the ogre fall, Deren turns his attention to the bugbears, winging a dagger into the mass of them. It strikes the wounded bugbear, drawing blood, but doesn't fell the hairy goblinoid.
"Rank villain!" Sir Merrick spins away from the thing's fetid breath, spins and brings his glaive down upon an inhuman bugbear warrior. The blade strikes hard, and dark blood seeps from the bugbear's wound, but it remains standing, albeit shakily.
[sblock=Reach weapons]
Per your question Voadam: Moving to W67 and striking at BB3 WOULD give BB3 soft cover (+4 AC) against your attack, because BB1 is in the way. Reach weapons follow the same rules as ranged weapons in this instance.
[/sblock]
Not having to retreat from the ogre, the gladiator simply asks for Kord’s help in addition to what Pelor gave him through Aeron.
Shoon tries to take out the wounded bugbear, but off-balance and beset by so many enemies, his attacks miss their marks. The bugbears work against him in unison. Dodging this way and that, the first two bugbears strike nothing but air...then Shoon's luck runs out. A morningstar catches him hard in the stomach, and as he doubles over in pain, another bugbear slams its own weapon down upon the back of the monk's head. Blood and brains spray across the floor as Shoon falls lifeless to the ground.
Round 6 updated above!

Legend
"Rank villain!" Sir Merrick spins away from the thing's fetid breath, spins and brings his glaive down upon an inhuman bugbear warrior.
ooc not entirely sure how reach weapons and cover works. If I move to W67 and strike the wounded bugbear 3 does it get cover against me from bugbear 1? If so I instead want to step back to X66 and bring the glaive down on bugbear 1 to get a better chance at hitting a foe.

Zirat
The gladiator retreats out of the Ogre’s reach. (5 ft. step) and asks for Kord’s help in addition to the ones Pelor gave him through Aeron.
*Lay on hands for 6 hp.

Round 8
The wounded bugbear continues his pursuit of Merrick, trying to stay under the effective reach of the Knight's polearm. His tactic works as his morning star again connects solidly with the knight.
Aeron closes his eyes for a moment, as his legs nearly give way. He opens them again, and they are cold and empty. Without even looking, the Prophet grabs Zirat, and, with a word of prayer, the warrior's wounds heal further.
Ciaran grimaces as Shoon falls, quickly stepping around behind Merrick. Again snapping up his crossbow, he gets some satisfaction as the bolt takes one of the bugbears through the eye, killing it.
Deren stares in horror as the monk falls dead to the ground. Angrily, he throws a dagger at the Bugbear the felled Shoon. The blade strikes true, sinking into the meat of the brute's thigh.
Despite the pain from the morningstar strike Sir Merrick rolls with the blow again and keeps moving. He uses the momentum to step back next to Ciaran to bring his great cleaver to a position to strike down the bugbear. The glaive splits his foe's skull, and suddenly the odds are looking more in the companions' favor.
One bugbear rushes Zirat, but his morningstar clatters off the champion's armor.
Poor fellow the gladiator thinks. If I want to stay alive I must cleave my way through goblinoids. "Die!" the gladiator calls as he slams his chain on the bugbear (#4)
The two remaining bugbears move in unison, attacking the Last Prophet. His armor and faith protect him from their blows.

Poor fellow
The gladiator thinks
If I want to stay alive I must cleave my way through goblinoids.
Die!
The gladiator calls as he moves forward (To T66) and tries to slam his chain on the bugbear (#4)
* MW Spiked Chain [attack:+9, Dmg:2d4+9, crit x2, 10 lb., two-handed, piercing] Using Power attack for -2 Attack +2 damage (Included in the stats) + included bless + magic potion.
