We'll deal it it shortly. So far marching order has had no effect so far apart from Ogirdor scouting ahead.

Right. I have updated and cleaned up the first post on this thread to account for the preferences voiced so far.

We need ragnboneshopper's opinion on where he wants Thurinor in all of the marching orders and watches

The Watch rooster assumes individual sentinels. If you want a different system let me know.

As for marching orders, the most essential at the moment is the "5' Wide" one as the party will likely be entering a narrow path they can only move in single file.

Also, check the Open Doors/Wide Space distribution of the group to see if you are ok with who is in the center and flanks of the group.

Th's single file preference: between Ston and Andr...but I wonder if it makes sense to have Og lead given the current potential for losing ourselves? Not sure if we get a bonus with a ranger out in front...

In the back with Og two wide seems fine...

in open spaces, Th would prefer being somewhere in the middle rather than on the outside flank...

Th is fine for the last watch for now.

I'd prefer Og in second place because of his outdoor skills.

Oz or Malone to the back? Best to keep the healer in the middle, and rather not have Thurinor in the back if attacked from the rear...

5' wide marching order updated for indicated preferences and what was indicated in the Action Thread. If Oz or Malone feel like bringing up the rear and provide protection to Thurinor, please say so.

Just let me know here or even in the current action thread. I'll reference here unless I hear something different in the action thread. Unless someone states a permanent change, I'll assume any change to the order in the action thread is temporary/situational... :D

Fairfax has to be added to the marching order... someplace... the NPC Bullyfrog (or whatever it is) I guess is up front.
