Terasaka takes a step forward (to G4) to stay in melee with the archer, feigning an aggressive lunge before falling into a defensive stance.

Move action feint, standard action full defense, activating Combat Expertise

AC: 39; +5 guard
HP: 24/70

(Why does Marty go twice in a row?)
[GM: turns were posted out of order--- as Dave decided his action wouldn't change by whatever Marty would likely do. Been doing this a lot to speed up the PBP process]

Terasaka's motion seems to be confusing the archer...
Four nearby shikigamis attack Yuuta as he charges the archer, but he dodges three of them and parries the last aside, before running up to the samurai archer and stabbing his shortsword through right under the chest plating (critical confirmed... was that crit dmg you posted? seems low).
Shigeru's bomb turns the archer into a torch but misses the shikigami--- however, all four of them nearby were fully caught by the explosion.

"Get out of there" yells a voice ~25ft to Yuuta's northeast, except there wasn't anyone visible there.

Archer1 then moves away from Terasaka/Yuuta (withdraw action), right before the air began to crystallize around Terasaka and Yuuta, and within seconds a hemisphere of ice formed around their position from just outside their reach, enclosing the two inside it alongside one shikigami.

Archer2 spent his time putting out the flames...

The shikigami birds then charged south, five to them flying over the battlements to pin Yumi and Shigeru's position against the battlements.

Yumi then shoots three arrows at the shikigami to her left at point blank range while dodging three attacks from the enemies that now surrounded them. Two arrows went into the target, badly damaging it.

Shigeru regenerates... (forgot to do so last turn too, now at 29/63)

Shigeru lobs a bomb (by hand) at the Shikigami in K19. (Yes. Seriously.)

(Attack to K19 Shikigami: 1d20+13 = 33 -> 43) (Confirmation: 1d20+13 = 26)
(Attack to J19 Shikigami: 1d20+13 = 18)
(Damage to K19: 14d6+14 = 68 fire, plus catch fire (DC21 REF to extinguish, 3d6+3 fire damage/round))
(Damage to J19: 7d6+7 = 33 fire, plus catch fire (DC21 REF to extinguish, 3d6+3 fire damage/round))
(Splash Damage: 14 fire, 10' radius (Ref DC 19 for half), SHIGERU AND YUMI EXCLUDED FROM SPLASH DAMAGE)

BOMBS LEFT: 11

(Hero Point for another Standard Action...)

Shigeru quickly draws another bomb and lobs it at J19.
(Attack to J19 Shikigami: 1d20+13 = 22)
(Attack to H18 Shikigami: 1d20+13 = 30)
(Damage to J19: 7d6+7 = 19 fire, plus catch fire (DC21 REF to extinguish, 3d6+3 fire damage/round)) (holy shitty damage roll batman)
(Damage to H18: 7d6+7 = 28 fire, plus catch fire (DC21 REF to extinguish, 3d6+3 fire damage/round))
(Splash Damage: 14 fire, 10' radius (Ref DC 19 for half), SHIGERU AND YUMI EXCLUDED FROM SPLASH DAMAGE)

BOMBS LEFT: 10

Shigeru 5' steps to J19.

Shigeru dodges the two attacks from shikigamis on his right while his bombs shred the three shikigamis to his left and damage those two remaining.

(That wasn't crit damage - I assumed I would miss :P Crit damage is another 3d6+3, which comes to 13.)

Yuuta takes a 5' step back and casts CLW. 11 HP healed.

(oh wait it doesn't confirm, I forgot Judson goes after you not before xD)

The two shikigami birds attacked Shigeru, but both missed again. The one within the ice dome attacks Terasaka and also misses...

The ground (and the walls) suddenly erupts with black tentacles around Shigeru's position, reaching into the air towards him. Shigeru manages to pull himself away from the tentacles' grasp, but Yumi wasn't so lucky. However--- both the shikigamis also got grappled down by the tentacles.

The two samurai archers take aim and shoots Shigeru, and only of them just barely manages to get an arrow through the battlements (hit on Shigeru: 28 piercing dmg)

( next: Marty, Dave, Judson )

( black squares outside battlements are marked as airspace affected by black tentacles... which is also technically 'rough terrain' at the moment )

Flanking the shikigami and pincering it with both attacks, Yuuta and Terasaka manages to destroy the shikigami...

Shigeru's bombs ignited both of the archers, yet despite the flames and their staggering injuries they managed to take one more shot against Shigeru each, both of which missed. The two then collapsed from their burns seconds later...

Both the shikigami birds manage to break out of the tentacles' hold and move to threaten Shigeru once again.

Yumi struggles with the tentacles but could not break free.

( next: Marty, Dave, then Judson )

Shigeru regenerates a hit point... (7/63 HP)

Shigeru grits through the numbing pain of the numerous attacks he has suffered, 5' steps to F16, and lobs a bomb right in the paper faces of the Shikigami.

(Attack to E18 Shikigami: 1d20+13 = 33 -> 43) (Confirmation: 1d20+13 = 27)

Shigeru destroys the last two shikigami...

It takes two rounds for Terasaka and Yuuta to break out of the ice (based on the last damage rolls), and Yumi finally manages to escape after those two rounds, looking very badly hurt from the combination of not-fully-healed earlier wounds plus the tentacles' thrashing. The invisible caster hasn't done a thing since--- probably fled after the last of his comrades were downed.

Shigeru could see that down in the first level of the castle, the allies' troops have completely cleared the south side of enemies and were pushing into the east and west sides. Although the Wolf Fangs' assault unit seems to be also bogged down on the east side fighting a squad of samurai that's been sent down to reinforce the collapsing ashigaru units...

To the north, the sounds of battle were getting more ferocious by the second. The allies have definitely broken through the outer wall defenses already and were engulfed in a chaotic melee inbetween the inner and outer walls.

( Shigeru gets one extra turn to do stuff while Yumi/Terasaka/Yuuta escapes )

( Marty, Dave, then Judson --- next action --- feel free to post your actions [separated by rounds] until you engage the enemy... map updated )
( The objective: inner walls gatehouse, is now E-NE by 300ft. No more enemies are inbetween here and there. Currently you see only 7 guards defending it--- a naginata samurai holding the gate entrance, a katana samurai blocking the door to the controls room, and 4 spearmen + 1 musketeer that fled from here earlier, being regrouped. They probably pulled some troops off against the other shock squads, but it won't be long, possibly any second now, when archer units from the other defenses start withdrawing in through those gates... ).

(Note: obviously, you're on the west side of the gatehouse)
