Magnus has just told his team about his plan for siege warfare. How will they do?

So after Magnus finished his grand speech, Gunderson and I went arm in arm to the moat. ' Be safe dear.' The idiot said in a sweet voice. Then he leaned over and kissed me. Still stuck in that golden moment, I just stared at the wall, not realizing I was drooling until I heared the familiar bang of a battering ram crashing onto the gate. Magnus gave the signal to us and Floor 1 and we took up positions. I counted another 5 bangs until the gate exploded and Einherja dressed in red armour started pouring in. Magnus with his sword Jack instantly cut through an enemy, drawing first blood. After that, I slashed, stabbed and hacked whenever I saw red amour, thankfully not mistaking my hallmates for an enemy as they were all covered in blood. Ben from Floor 1 slashed at the last enemy we saw, spilling blood everywhere. Since this was a battlefield, the blood did not auto-evaporate, which sucked.
We counted our dead. There were 3 guys down in floor 1, which left Ben and Manson surviving in that group. For our floor, we lost TJ, 2 arrows and a dagger in his body. I almost cried at site of Gunderson. He had a dagger in his elbow and 3 arrows in his arm. Somehow he managed to give me a bloodied smile and a thumbs up. Magnus wiped some blood of his face. 'Nice job guys! We had actually defeated half of the enemy ourselves!'
And thats when the norns came in...
