Freedom's Blood (Round 1)

Zahru - Zahru II

Image

Unsurprisingly, perhaps, the Slayer would be the first to act.

Image

Zahru decided to push himself to his limit from the start. The troll arm ripped through his leather armour as he flexed his muscles and called upon its powers.

Image

Lead assassin: "So he's the warrior that's been giving us so much trouble. He'll make a good slave."

Assassin: "Remember there's a price on his head, let's get him guys!"

Image

Zahru, however, didn't appear to be planning to let himself be enslaved. Grabbing his bow, he attempted to rapidfire at the rangers, but his bowstring snapped. Not a good start. (I rolled a 1 so it failed despite the mods. He still has the bow but it will require an action to repair it)

Image

Undaunted by the loss, Zahru armed himself with his most powerful weapons and charged across the bridge.

"Time for slaughter!"

Image

He made a spin and attacked the first assassin with his katana, but the assassin managed to dodge his attack. His counterattack only just failed to harm Zahru.

Image

Zahru shrugged it off and, continuing his spin, took out the assassin with a blow to the back of the head.

Image

"Come on you cutthroats! Are you the Elite now or what?" the Slayer jeered.

Rax's Rebels - Warhead

Image

Crossbowmen spread out to set up response fire against all possible threats while the catapult rolled forward slightly to allow room for the Elites to pass through behind. Two manned the catapult and attempted to fire it, but crit failed and broke it (will require two actions to be repaired). General Rax zipped up the side of the hill.

Image

Mumbles the Mad presented himself to his enemies and attempted to increase the strength of his magic shield, but failed.

Image

Following that, he took off his clothes to cause a distraction.

Image

Luckily an Elite prevented worse by dragging him back to safety and putting his clothes back on.

Image

Contrary to his men, Rax got good rolls and managed to sprint over to the gate. He then asked the Boar God for strength to help open the gate, calling upon the ancient incantations...

Image

"OPEN DAMNIT!"

Image

It worked! With an impressive display of strength, Rax managed to lift the gate up.

"FOLLOW!"

Image

Hearing this command, two Phalanx broke from formation and sprinted.

Image

They managed to wedge their halberds under the gate to keep it open, but found the cavalry waiting on the other side. Thus the Phalanx, though unarmed, placed themselves in front of their commander protectively.

Image

The rest of the formation then advanced. (I think they've never looked cooler than they do on this picture 8))

Hitokiri - Killer Karetsu

Image

The Hitokiri charged across the river towards the squad of swordsmen led by the infantry commander. Kage went solo, his horse shooting forward like the wind and zipping under the High Lord's defences, allowing him to cut at the Titan's kneecap.

Vladek: "WHAT-?"

Image

Right before the impact, the Elite Hitokiri jumped off from their steeds and used their trademark Windledge ability. However the swordsmen squad braced as one and withstood the charge, and their heavy armour and shields saved them from the Hitokiri's ranged attacks. (for those who don't have a clue what I'm talking about, watch Ninja Scroll. It's good.)

Image

:shock: Bloody hell Kage, I know I gave you a 3d6 damage weapon but don't you think you're exaggerating a little?

Image

The lethal strike ripped through Vladek in true anime-styled fashion.

"Raaaaargh!"

Image

*Splooch* The clean cut became visible as the High Lord hit the ground, stone dead. (I was surprised too) However there was a downside: one Elite Hitokiri and his steed were crushed by the Titan.

Image

Kage, seeing how his men's assault had failed, addressed them.

Kage: "Guard yourselves, men!"

Image

His feat worked, and it allowed them to set up a reaction.

Image

The rest of the Hitokiri began to charge across the bridge to support Zahru.

Image

The Trogdor leaped on top of the hill and used his firebreath...

Image

... burninating a ranger.

(And so it begins ^__^ Since this battle is huge I'll be processing it in groups of 3 turns like I did now. To keep things fair I'll only accept new orders after I've posted the overviews. Also, when you send your orders, please include the name of your faction in the title of the PM.)

Sure; the point is also not to have to fit a huge amount of pictures in one post.

HAHAHAHAHA! Loved it, Open Dammit! Not even bothered about the catapult yet, all due to Mumbles the Mad.

(Blood... lots.)

Urban Guard - FISH!!!

Image

The Bloodguard squadded up with his spearmen and charged. One heavy swordsman ended up dead. They retaliated and slew two spearmen.

Image

The rest moved up. The crossbowmen were stuck behind the swordsmen and out of range.

Image

The Bloodguard then attempted something cool, but failed.

Summoner's Legion - solvess

Image

"Volley!"

Image

Despite being in danger to shoot down some of their own men since they were in combat they managed to shoot down the final two spearmen. The Bloodguard narrowly avoided being damaged.

Image

But the cannon then fired on him as well.

Image

Luckily it caused only knockback and even freed him from the melee, but it also disrupted him.

Image

"Fire!"

Image

The Telmarines made their shots count, but the White Dragon Knights defended themselves well and only the cannon managed to kill; an officer bit the dust.

Image

The summoner focused his powers into one...

Image

A water elemental stepped through the portal.

Bloodguard - Ross_Varn

Image

Two knights charged and killed a heavy swordsman.

Image

The rest charged the wall of pikes they were confronted with. This is going to be messy...

Image

Results: all horses and knights dead, 3 dead halberdiers and 3 disrupted ones.

Image

The rest of the knights advanced across the river. Since the Hitokiri's horses were in the way they decided to mount them.

Image

They killed a heavy swordsman.

(I still need orders from some people, you know who you are... and I know where you live. )

There's still 6 factions to go and then maybe some... I just haven't received orders from all yet for this round. Those would be Grim's Legion and the Purple Mages. You can always see when the round is done 'cos I'll post up the Kill Chart lastly.

That would be a dead one who had been catapulted away by the charge ;) The alive ones are still holding onto their weapons (so I won't mess up).
