I'm a little confused over who stands where in this right now. Could I get a summary?

Currently of the three Barghests one is among the group, he is suffering from the effects of one of the Alpha's Howls but is otherwise unharmed, the other 2 have injured their forelegs and are incapable of running and are 30 and 40 meters from the group, the male is also slightly impact by the same howl.

Your team is currently 1 paralyzed, 1 catatonic, 1 astrally projecting and far away with a parlyzed protector, 1 bleeding out and unconcious, 1 running away, but quite capable of returning, 2 fully capable team members and 1 mage that is still bound and duct-taped, except for his eyes.  the two fully capable team members are able to engage different barghest effectively.

1 bleeding out and unconscious

I guess I should've worded it as "one away from overflow" not "one above overflow." I'm still conscious, just with only one box left in my physical track.

Outta curiosity, where'd the barghest bite O'Connor?

Ok so how close is guy getting mauled? Johnny would like to make sure nobody dies if he can help it.
So I suppose he'll drop the rock and punch the hell outta the attacking mutt.

Wait any negative modifiers to punching into a melee combat?

Superficial surface bites and abbrasions, majority of the damage is blunt force trauma to your torso when the barghest bore you to the ground.

Actually since I counted you as walking forward your full move distance, you would have to charge to engage in melee, which is a +2 dice mod

If you are going after the one on O'Connor you get an additional +1.

Please go after the one about to maul me to death, with that last attack, my CM penalties now put me at the bottom of initiative.

Fortunately, that's the only one in reach - focus fire made easy.

so do I have to announce when i use critical strike or penetrating strike?
And +1 DV is auto added or are they extra dice I roll?

The bonus is added to the total damage. If it was bonus die, the rules would've stated it specifically.
The rules do state that you have to declare critical strikes.

Ok so using Critical strike (+3DV), and doing -3 AP physical damage (Ceramic bone lacing), Plus +2 more DV from Martial arts. IF I hit. Rolling Unarmed (6) with specialty martial arts and Agility (7) for 15 dice right?

Edit: NO 18 cause of the +3

Agility 7 + Unarmed 6 + Specialty 2.  Under any wound penalties?  Is the charge a bonus to damage or the roll?

No wound penalties and
if I read the charge entry correctly its added to the attack dice pool.
In the instance that I hit do I roll for damage or is it a static value?
(STR/2+2) +5 DV
Side question: Since my Str is 5 do I round up or down?

Edit: Nevermind about the STR question cause I double checked and his STR is actually 6.
So Unarmed Attack 10p/-3 Impact?

Damage is net rolled.  Crossbow rolls the Barghest's defense, your net hits (the number of hits more than the Barghest gets) are added to DV, and then the Barghest gets a soak roll to take some of that damage off.  If it has any armour, the value of that armour is reduced based on your AP.

When declaring the attack, you should probably declare total DV before net hits, AP, and whether it's resisted with Ballistic or Impact.
