I think everyone has replied. I will try and get a turn out tonight. I have two major projects due at work today so it is unlikely to be during the day.

Subject Round 3
OODM: Initiative for round 3. Ranthir (23), Harp (22),Creature (20),Kal (20), Surin (20),Allistair (14), Ragnar (10), Mund (9), Salix (6).
Ran sees Mund's axe fell hundreds of the little insects and moves forward to help. He steps up next to Mund and swings at the swarm. His sword flashes through the swirling insects but does no damage.
Harp also steps forward, his sword swinging with blinding speed. The blade meets no resistance as it passes time and time again through the nebulous cloud of bugs. A creature here and there is caught by the blade, but it is obvious to the 1/2 orc that his weapon is having no effect.
The swarm shifts over and flow over Ran. They attempt to sting and bite him but are repelled. As they move to surround the 1/2 elf, Ran and Mund both swing. Ran's sword has no effect again, but Mund's axe connects again (AOO, AC20, 14+11=25,hit, damage 6) and hundreds more of the creatures fall to the ground.
Kal advances and stabs at the edge of the swarm. His rapier passes through the swarm like he was fighting a shadow.
Allistair finishes his chant and three small swirls of air appear behind the swarm. At his mental command the three swirls attack the swarm. The air is angry with motion and confusion as little insectoid bodies are flung around and swirled back and forth. The swarm seethes and flows trying to keep together. The elementals seem to be doing a good job of disrupting the swarm but not that many bodies fall to the ground.
Allistair then chants his message spell and starts to send a warning to Surin to be on the look out for a spell caster back at the edge of the woods. However, the mage realizes that he needs to be able to the person he wants to whisper to. He does warn the others about the chance of a mage at the other end of the clearing.
Ragnar is pleased to see that his prayer has worked. He stands ready to help if anyone gets hurt.
Mund swings his axe, small pieces of ice falling from the edge of the blade. Seeing that he has had better luck with the flat of the blade, he swings it once (AC20, 19+11=30, damage 5) and fells more of the things. However, on his backstroke he overbalances and almost looses his grip on the axe (AC20, 1+6=7, miss).
Salix, trying to keep his stomach from heaving again turns to Ragnar "Do you need help? Is everyone ok?"
OODM: I need round 4 actions.

OOC: Mark, after Kal sees Ran and Harp's attacks fail, does he have enough time to change his action to magic missle?

OOC: Can we all hear each other now when we whisper?

Subject Round 4 actions
Not on this round. He can on round 4

No. Allistair is the connect point. He can talk to people and people can talk to him, using the spell, but they can not talk directly to each other, using the spell.
What this means is that people can talk to each other using normal means, but can not whisper using the message spell that Ally has going.
I hope that that makes sense.

OOC: That makes perfect sense.
IC: Mund sees that his fellow sword-wielding companions aren't accomplishing much and says to them "If you can't hurt these things, back off and either cover the magickers or make sure there's nothing else out there to bite us in the butt."
