This is the general plan so far for the 'Tribute' group. As the group's relatively large and not every char can be present at every planning session, I thought this would help everyone be in the know. ICly, Lerin took notes, so we can assume he's scribbled down a version of their plan and made copies, so all chars can have IC knowledge of the plan of action.
-Party modifications - Diero Falcone and Rokintooker Deelishus have joined the group.
-Full Party:

Use the gates to the Manor as a choke point. Throw everything at them. Lerin to Entangle and Grease just beyond the gates.

Use Blaastein Manor as the staging ground from which to make sure Mistlebrook and Mistletarn aren't currently being completely flattened by giants looking for revenge.
