The BrikWars Forums

Even though the Ebon-crazed Falx were defeated and the Portal-Fortress shut down for good, things were far from peaceful throughout the continent of Northeros. Up in the Norselands, a new Storsmältning - a cataclysmic event when the dreaded Rime Grizzlies awaken from their slumber - has begun, causing ferocious furbeasts to rampage down from Frostvald to the relatively green lower regions. Couldn't be any better time for the newly-appointed Imperial Champion of the North, Thorbern, to show his worth and assist the Norsemen in repelling said beasts.



Thorbern: 'Quick, give me a status report!'



Norseman: 'Those wretched monsters have already claimed that pass, Ursar - we will have to drive them back before they could fortify it.'



Thorbern: 'Fair enough - nobody said this was going to be easy, but I really got myself right into the thick of it. Let's kick some grizzly butt!'

Can I control the Norsemen or Rime Grizzlies?

Thorbern! Thorbern!

If that's quite alright with you, of course. My orders are prompt, and my gameplay creative.

Alright, all spots taken, you can send orders for turn 1 now. I'd prefer battles to be somewhat fast paced. If we could do 1 turn a day that would be dandy, thanks~

If it's not taken, I would like to have the secret faction.

Time to get back to that map I was redrawing for Medivo.

Rime Grizzlies - Duerer



Rime Grizzlies gain the advantage and start advancing towards the Norse.

Thorbern - Sir Sporktimus



Thorbern, realizing they're outnumbered, decides to improvise:





"Let's see if this will thin their numbers!"



Unfortunately the explosion's damage wasn't high enough, but it did get to knock out 2 bearzerkers (will have to spend their action next turn on recovering).

Norsemen - Valiant



Four of the norse decide to advance and bunch up to avoid getting overwhelmed.



The others decide to to make use of the shields on the camp wall (UR2,CC,+1d8AV when parrying).

One of the norse picks up the miraculously unfazed glass which is still dimly ablaze, and starts moving towards the Rime Grizzlies' banner.

While the basher recuperates, the bearzerkers gang up on Thorbern and unleash a flurry of blows, which ultimate prove too much for the hero. Thorbern is defeated!
