Okay, so far, from what I assume, most of our characters were used to fighting as individuals or having someone else fight for them up to now. So, the order to "spread out". Gidian doesn't think it's a good idea, and Skadi especially would get cut down immediately or sniped by any of these opponents in an instant. I'm not sure how well Maere would be able to do, better than Skadi surely, but not well enough to handle herself reliably in a duel. Belzebub can acquit himself fine, but even he isn't immune to being flanked, nor are Gidian and Dolun. I assume Baroth isn't either.
So Belzebub is going to move to spread out to one side, and I assume Baroth would as well with the others wondering if they should follow suit. Skadi is still shell shocked by the image of her being skewered by a giant spear, and is confused by someone yelling to stay together and someone else yelling to spread out, but decides just to stick by Gidian and see what happens.
Dolun and Gidian both think spreading out is a terrible idea, but if someone's gonna do it wrong, may as well do it wrong together to maximize the chance of survival. So Dolun and Gidian shielding Maere and Skadi in the center, with Baroth and Belzebub as flankers.
By this point, though, the noise and confusion of the situation causes the Marauders to smell weakness, and they charge in, not leaving room for any argument or discussion. The Boar charges straight up the center, the Spider following in his wake. The Wolf goes after Baroth. The ferret twins, Raven, and Bat all go after Belzebub.
Any input?
