Isabella and Gallikronn - Scratch

Image

'Have a taste of your own medicine, brother!' Gallikronn cries as swoops past and claws deep into Aetheros, his attack reinforced by Isabella's lightning charge.

Image

He tries to knock his much larger adversary over with wind, but quickly realizes that is just not going to happen.

Falx Commander Esteban - Silent-sigfig

Image

Esteban "heroically" takes advantage of the Jarl being knocked over and strikes at him. Sadly he's unable to harm him, despite gaining an extra damage dice from the feat.

Image

'Alright Esteban, focus. It's just the heat of the battle. You got this.'

Image

Esteban strikes again, but misses!

Image

The orkish and Falx troops push the attack, but only take down a swordsman in total.

Image

Slayers however reach the catapult!

Image

They effortlessly hack it apart, much to the horror of the cultists!

Image

In a bizarre act of vengeance, as the catapult's arm collapses, it falls on one of the slayers and slams it to death.

Image

The riflemen regroup and combine fire on Gallikronn again.

Image

Image

They blast down the red dragon from the sky, who loses his wing and another hitpoint. Him and Isabella crash to the ground, disrupted.

The Iron Jarl - lawmaster

Image

The leftover skeletons regroup and crush the last orkboys.

Image

The cultists desperately try to fix their mighty warmachine, however their past work experience only involved scheming, crafting disguises, mixing poisons, and causing havoc and unrest. They are no mechaniks, and their pitiful "square peg round hole" efforts are a sad sight to all.

Image

The Iron Jarl: 'Now this is a fight!'

Image

The Iron Jarl: 'However, my real quarry lies over there. You weak Falx are not worth the effort.'

Image

Esteban: 'Hey, get back here so that I may kill you!'

The Jarl doesn't even bother to listen to Esteban's stammering, he's determined and fixated on Aetheros, signing an old battle song as he rushes through the battlefield:

Image

Deathbringer from the Sky
Hunting victims in the night
Feel the terror as flames are burning bright


Image

There is... No tower as high or a cave so deep,

That can save you from my endless spite,

Image

So bow down and face your wretched destiny!

The Jarl cuts deep into the dragon's hide, and while it failed to do any damage, it anchored him safely onto Aetheros. Also it was a pretty sick manuevre, regardless of its outcome.

Pizzaro D'Oros - Silverdream

Image

Swordsmen take down two Falx troopers.

Image

Crossbowmen fire at Esteban, and yeah... those are damage dice. Bit of an overkill.

Image

Esteban, shaken from the unexpected volley, contemplates a little before life fades from his body. Born and raised in a Falx province, he used to have aspirations of becoming a mighty warlord for the Republic, eventually leading his very own invasion. However, he was just always a little behind for what it takes - a little too clumsy, a little too slow, a little less ruthless than his peers. He knew he never had a great reputation within the army; however, he did manage to lead an actual army! For a little, he was everything he dreamt to be! Oh, his mama would be so proud if he could just write home.

Image

'This is fine', Esteban thought to himself. And with that, the short lived Falx Commander fell dead with a satisfied grin on his face. Rest well champ.

Image

Pizzaro picks up a slayer ax and prepares to hurl it at Aetheros. He read about this when they ransacked the great library of Tybia, in a story about some creature called 'Moebius Dyk'.

Pizzaro: 'How was it again? From hell's heart, I stab at thee!'

Image

Well that didn't quite hit the mark. Due to a pathetic range roll, Pizzaro barely managed to land it even near Aetheros.

Image

A bit disappointed, he resumes doing what he does best, and cuts down a slayer.

Aetheros the Mighty - Bragallot

Image

'I SHALL TEAR THIS WORLD APART!' - Aetheros cries as he gets on his rear legs, bristling with energy.

'TREMBLE AS I WILL TEAR DOWN THE VERY HEAVENS AND BOMBARD THIS WRETCHED BATTLEFIELD WITH THE STARS!'

Image

Gallikronn: 'No brother, don't! None of us are strong enough to control such forbidden spells!'

Image

'SILENCE, TRAITOR! I WILL ENJOY WATCHING YOU DIE ALONG WITH THESE CU- ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!'

Image

Aetheros suddenly writhes in agony, unable to control the magical powers surging through him. (critical failure)

Image

'THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE! I AM THE HAND OF THE DESTROYER, IT WAS MY... NEWFOUND DESTINY... TO ERADICATE THIS WORLD FROM THESE... MONGRELS!'

Gallikronn: 'Your hatred and arrogance blinded you brother! You were merely a pawn in the hands of your twisted master! It pains me to see you like this, you were one the greatest ever to soar the skies... I hope you will finally find peace in the great afterflight.

Image

RRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH-

Image

Image

Image

Aetheros, unable to control one of the ancient spells of cataclysm, overloaded his magikal reserves and exploded in a 7 inch radius, taking down 8 units with him total, including Gallikronn and the Iron Jarl. He left nothing but his charred skeletal husk behind, gazing to the heavens in rage and disbelief, for not even his ebonite plating could save him from a magikal explosion of such magnitude.
