The Siege of the Dunlan Fortress - Turn 5

Post by Joshua » Mon Aug 16, 2021 4:02 pm

Lots of death this round.

Sir John Lannister - Me

Image
Sir Lannister takes notice of the giant Oliphant charging after him and decides the best option is to keep riding.

Image
He rides just to the other side of the siege tower.

Undead - Falk (NPC this turn)

Image
A crossbow skelly in the siege tower takes notice of Sir John and fires at him. He fails to do enough damage, however.

Image
The other one fires at an archer and scores a kill!

Image
The orc officer decides to get in on the action and takes a flying leap off of the siege tower.

Image
He lands next to Lillian and attacks her, but her armor holds.

Image
The Skeletal Angel flies down into the Fortress.

Image
And lodges it's axe in the head of a Black Knight.

Image
He falls over the side of the battlements, dead.

Image
Using the rest of it's movement, the Angel flies upward a little.

Image
This skeleton makes it into the Fortress.

Image
The skeleton climbing the ladder decides to chance it and climb through the fire. He survives, but is now burning.

Image
He attacks the bearded swordsman, but fails to kill him.

Image
The Demon-hero starts running.

Image
He runs over to the Bull Knight catapult and demands to be launched into the Dunlan Fortress.

Image
Seeing it best to comply, the Bull Knight loads him into the catapult and launches him.

Image
The Demon ends up falling right next to the Garrison Commander.

Image
He quickly gets up and yells out a challenge to the Commander. "Let's get your death over with, shall we?" "Prepare to be disappointed, you hellish fiend!" Success! The Demon and Garrison Commander are now locked in a duel to the death, with no outside help allowed.

Image
The Demon lunges at the Commander, but is parried.

Image
The Commander then counters, but the Demon easily blocks the attack.

Image
The Wraith floats over towards the portcullis, and fades out of this material realm, allowing it to pass through the portcullis and troops guarding it with ease.

Image
It then re-materializes behind the phalanx, and bashes a spearman on the head with it's hammer.

Image
Killing him.

Image
The armored skeleton picks itself up and waltzes over to the portcullis.

Image
It then throws it's spear at the other spearman.

Image
Which amazingly, hits him right between the eyes, killing him.

Image
This archer moves over towards the gatehouse, having no targets in sight.
The siege machine also fired, but misses.

Uruk-hai and Easterlings - Scribonius

Image
Both of these Uruk-hai either fail their attack, or are blocked.

Image
The disrupted orc picks himself up...

Image
Before jamming his sword in a swordsman's stomach.

Image
That must've hurt.

Image
Yeah, he's dead.

Image
These two sprint over towards the secret entrance.

Image
The Oliphant picks up a dead Uruk-hai...

Image
And chucks it towards Lillian!

Image
Wheeee!

Image
'thud' It barely misses it's target.

Image
The Oliphant then follows Sir John.

Black Knights - Degener@te

Image
The Commander attacks the Demon, and scores a hit! The Demon loses an HP. 1 remains.

Image
The Demon then counters, but is blocked.

Image
The halberdier impales the Uruk-hai he was in close-combat with.

Image
The knight moves over to defend the secret entrance.

Image
The blue-plumed halberdier eliminates another skeleton.

Image
The yellow-plumed halberdier attacks the Wraith, but misses.

Image
Bad-ass swordsman goes over to the orc and slits his neck.

Image
Bad-ass spearman throws his spear at the Wraith,

Image
But the Wraith dematerializes, causing the spear to go right through it.

Image
The bearded swordsman fails to kill the burning skeleton.

The two archers tried to kill the Skeletal Angel, but both missed.

Lillian Windstrider - Bragallot

Image
Lillian tries to kill the orc officer, but his armor saves him.

Image
She then pulls out some strange instrument and starts playing a beautiful song on it.

Image
Since everyone knows the Forces of Darkness can't stand beautiful music, the Demon screams and covers it's ears.

Image
It then starts convulsing on the ground, losing an action.

Image
Having never heard such a thing as this, the Oliphant goes berserk and rears up.

Image
It then crashes into the siege tower. No harm is done...

Image
But the two archers on it are disrupted.

Image
Cedric tries covering his ears, losing an action, while the other Bull Knight falls off the ladder because he couldn't stand the 'noise'.

Also, the orc officer right next to Lillian falls off the wall into the courtyard because of the music.

Bull Knights - My brother

Image
The catapult fires for the last time. (It's out of ammunition)

Image
The rock crashes into the burning skeleton, taking it's head off. The body knocks over the bearded swordsman and disrupts him.

Image
There's the head.

Image
Cedric and the other Bull Knight pick themselves up.

Image
The Bull Knight heads over towards the gatehouse while Cedric tries to blow really hard to put out the flames on the ladder.

Image
However, Cedric still has some alcohol on his breath, which immediately catches fire and snakes back to him, setting him ablaze! He survives the fire damage.

End Phase:

Image
The fire on the wall starts to die out.


Suddenly, off in the distance, a trumpet blast is heard...

Image
The Black Knight heavy cavalry has arrived!

Image
They size up the situation and start galloping towards the enemy!
