Thomas will hand his bow to Crusher and start forward slowly. Kalfie and Pundit will watch the area around us and behind us. Crusher, Daphne, and Wanderer will cover Thomas with bows ready. Thomas feels that this is a trap. He will have sword drawn and ready as well as shield. Thomas will check to see if any bandits are in around the fire. Pundit and Kalfie will also have bows ready for any who try to attack from the side or rear.
We still plan on trying to subdue rather than kill any bandits found.

JB. To make a clarification it was Thomas who was moving forward. Was he able to see from where the arrows came from and did it still hit?
Is Thomas able to see where the bandits are or where the arrows came from? If So Thomas will turn in that direction and keep on advancing but a bit quicker. If they can do so safely (as in not hitting Thomas) Crusher, Daphne and Wanderer will return fire with bows and arrows. Thomas wants to get to the bandits before one strikes true with an arrow. Thomas will be trying to subdue instead of kill the bandits.
Thomas will move back to the rest of the party. Once there he will ask Kalfie for a flasK of oil. Taking a strip of cloth from his shirt making sure it is long enough to act as a fuse and soaked Thomas will put it in the top of the flask. Kalfie will strike a spark to the cloth and once lit Thomas will throw it out and up in front of us. Thomas is aiming for the top of the rise. Once the oil flask shatters and the oil lights up what do we see?
Seeing the one duck back into the side entrance is all we needed to see. Thomas leads the charge to the side entrance. He is followed closely by Wanderer, Daphne, Pundit and Crusher. Kalfie stays back to watch our backs to make sure no one come up behind us. HE will crouch low by the side entrance watching the way we came Bow and arrows at the ready.
Thomas will use a shield bash on the first one he comes across as they enter the side entrance. We are hoping for a little surprise in rushing the side entrance. Thomas and the others are going to try and subdue the bandits that are in the side entrance. We want to take them down and tie them up using leather strips cut from their armour. Once we have subdued them we will search the area.
Once we have them tied up we will search the area and remove their weapons. Thomas will look at the one that is not knocked out and ask how many are in the pass? He will also ask him about the signals and if there is a back way up and down to this spot. If he does not answer right away Thomas will indicate to wanderer while whispering in the bandits ear how she likes to rip a guys flesh from their body with her bare teeth. And how she loves to do this to men who are alive just the hear their screams of agony.
Note: We are trying to place a health amount of fear in them.
The rest will rest and tend to Kalfie's and Pundit's wounds from the climb. Crusher will watch for any climbing up from entrance we came in.
