Travock starts with sword and shield Sidios with sword and javelin. Travock delays so he moves after Sidios if necessary

Travock delays after Sidios, you move as shown.

Archibald will move out south, ready a charge on the first enemy spotted, and make a perception check.
Bigby will move out west stealthily, ready a throwing dagger at the first enemy spotted, and make a perception check.

You move as shown and ready. Still no LOS or sign of your opponent.
Glory
Sidios moves as shown (using 4 squares of his movement) tell me what I see then can't really make anything of it right now
Glory
This is what you see, though you actually see Archibald during your move between B2 and B3. Actions?

Move as shown instead, quarry Archie and ready a twin strike when Travock is in flanking position. Travock moves as shown uses Predatory Eye when he attack's with Warlords Favor
Glory11 damage to Sidious, he is at 19. Modified actions?
Archie
Archibald and Bigby have switched places on your map.
Not sure what happens when Travock moves out from cover and into Archibald's LOS 8 squares away. Does he charge when/if he comes into range?

Also, Bigby threw a dagger at Sidios (Archie could not charge) which missed, so no damage done to Sidios. Tactics please.

To answer your question: Archie will charge if and when his ready is triggered, thus whenever an opponent comes within his 5 square charge range.
Tactics
This round finish Sidios movement like this and quarry Bigby then ready a twin strike after Travock attacked Bigby. Travock will move around to flank Bigby and attack with Warlord's Favor (use predatory eye on this attack). He will probably get charged by Archi but continue as planned. If Bigby is still standing Travock will use Commander's Strike to grant Sidios another attack with the bonus from Warlord's Favor. If this brings Bigby down but not death Sidios uses an AP for a CDG.
After Bigby is down try to get Sidios in a flanking position around Archi with Travock. Sidios quarry's Archi and attacks with two-fanged strike travock uses Commander's strike or white raven tactics to shift Sidios in flanking position if needed. When flanking position is established Travock AP for another commander's strike. Continue with Twin Strike/Commander's Strike till Archi is dead.
Use Inspiring Word when either Sidios or Travock gets bloodied but in the case of Sidios wait till he has activated his longtooth shifting which he will do as soon as he gets bloodied. Use second wind when bloodied and no Inspiring Words remain.

Tactics
Thanks to whoever picks this up!
First round: Bigby and Archibald will try to set up flanking against Travock drawing the least amount of opportunity attacks possible, but I would prefer Archibald to take one over Bigby. Bigby will use Torturous Strike with Predatory Eye once in flanking position. Archibald will use Wolf-Pack Tactics to set up flanking or Viper's Strike if unneeded.
Subsequent rounds: Bigby will draw a dagger continue with Riposte Strikes against Travock until he is down. Archibald will use Hammer and Anvil against Travock if he is not bloodied or healed last round.
Rounds after Travock is downed: Bigby will continue with Riposte Strikes against Sidios, shifting toward Archibald after each attack. Archibald will use Inspiring Word if either character has lost more than 10hp, priority to Bigby. Archibald will coup de grace Travock with Viper's Strikes.
Once Travock is dead: Bigby will switch to Piercing Strikes. Archibald will move into flanking drawing opportunity attacks if needed and use Viper's Strikes. Inspiring Word any time a character loses more than 10hp. Second Wind if bloodied.
If Bigby falls: Archibald will Inspiring Word to bring him back. Archibald will use Second Wind if he's taken more than 10 damage. Bigby will use Second Wind on his next turn and shift into a corner if possible. If Bigby dies or Archibald is unable to Inspiring Word any long, continue with Viper's Strikes against Travock until he is down then Sidios until match ends.
If Archibald falls: Bigby will continue with Riposte Strikes against Sidios until he is down then switch to Travock. Try to avoid being flanked. Second Wind if bloodied.
Notes: Bigby will use his short sword for encounter power and his dagger for all at-wills this match. Inspiring Word priority goes to Bigby. If unable to use Predatory Eye first round, use it the first chance available. Don't use Second Wind until Travock is down.

Since I still need to finish my turn here it is:
This round finish Sidios movement like this and quarry Bigby then ready a twin strike after Travock attacked Bigby. Travock will move around to flank Bigby and attack with Warlord's Favor (use predatory eye on this attack). He will probably get charged by Archi but continue as planned. If Bigby is still standing Travock will use an AP for Commander's Strike to grant Sidios another attack with the bonus from Warlord's Favor. If this brings Bigby down but not death Sidios uses an AP for a CDG.

Edit: Heh, looks like a whole lot of nothing happened. I'll have to make a new entry in the roller for the fight, however. My roller will just start with round 1, with Sidios being first in initiative (the rest of the characters will continue in normal order).
Glory
Travock has moved 3 squares, and can still move another 3.
Glory
A little gamble here I just hope it pays off.
Travock will continue moving to the 3rd point and from there charge Bigby. After the charge Travock spents an action point for Warlords Favor which triggers Travock readied action. The movement will provoke from Archi.

Glory
Travock takes 12 damage and is at 12/24 HP. Would you still like to use Predatory Eye for the attack?
Glory
Nope use the minor for an inspiring word on self
Travock shouts an inspiring word at himself, and is invigorated by the technique, and no longer bloodied. He then charges at Bigby, then in a rush of energy he also swings with a Warlord's Favor, but both attacks miss. Sidios then uses a Twin Strike on the rogue. Both attacks hit, and Bigby is bloodied.
Archie
Bigby takes 20 damage and is at 4/24 HP.
Archie
Bigby will shift south, use his Second Wind, and action point (and heal 3 hit points from Archibald's Inspiring Presence!) to ready a Torturous Strike with his large dagger and use Predatory Eye when Archibald is in flanking.
Archibald will move to flank Travock, safely avoiding opportunity attacks and triggering Bigby's readied attack, then use Inspiring Word on Bigby. Archibald will then use Viper's Strike on Travock (if he falls to Bigby's attack, it'll be for a coup de grace) provoking an opportunity attack from Bigby if he shifts next turn.

Travock is now dead.

Sidios shifts into the space Bigby just left and uses two-fanged strike on Bigby. Please hold actions for after the attack I may want to spend a AP
Archie
Bigby takes 18 damage and is at 3/24 HP.
Glory
AP for Twin strike on Bigby please
Archie
Bigby takes 9 damage and is at -6 HP.
Archie
Archibald will move as shown, use Inspiring Word on Bigby, and use Hammer and Anvil on Sidios.
Archie
Bigby recovers 7 HP. Also, I'm assuming you mean to move as above, to avoid opportunity attacks, yes?
Glory
Attack Bigby again with Twin Strike and shift 1W
Archie
Bigby takes 5 damage and is at 2/24 HP
Archie
Bigby will stand from prone and ready a Riposte Strike with his large dagger, triggering once Archibald has attacked.
Archibald will move west, accepting the opportunity attack from Sidios, use Wolf's Pack Tactics and have Bigby shift north.

Results up soon.
Archibald spent nothing.
Bigby spent three healing surges and an action point.
Glory Through Cunning loses, and gains 1 VP.
Sidios spent an action point.
Travock spent a healing surge and an action point.
Let me know if I missed anything.
Archibald's attack in round 4 was a critical, so it deals max (12) damage instead of the 9 that was rolled for it, Sjiggie.
