Sheathing his weapon, the Uruk-Hai hero moves over to the large tree.
He deftly and nimbly climbs it all the way to the top, and waits to make his next move.
The ballista aims and fires!
The projectiles collide with the ramparts, breaking off a section and exposing the defenders.
Meanwhile, the rest of the band moves up, with the ranged ones loosing their arrows and bolts. Unfortunately the defender's armor protects them, resulting in no casualties.
Black Knights - Trollgineer
Sir Darius climbs up to the parapets and steels himself.
The Garrison Commander repositions over towards the low wall.
An archer steadies his bow, and fires!
It's a hit! First Blood!...?
Undead - Bragallot
Naeve raises her staff, ready to cast a spell.
Naeve: "What the?"
Naeve fumbles the spell and ends up creating ice directly beneath her, freezing her skeletal steed.
Meanwhile, the Western-most skeletons begin their assault. (recommended listening)
They bring down their ladder, and the armored skeleton attacks the spearman. The spearman successfully parries, however.
More skeleton advance, and ready their ladder.
The ranged Black Knights open fire, but miss or don't deal enough damage.
'thud'
As soon as the ladder comes down, Sir Darius grabs it and shakes it violently, but the skeleton barely manages to hang on.
The skeletons help the troll push the siege tower and they push it all the way to the fortress.
Ranged units exchange fire, without casualties.
With a crash, the siege tower opens up and skeletons pour out!
The bearded swordsman deftly deflects the Elite Skeleton's attack.
The knight tries to shove it, but fails.
Thalia and Peasants - Trollgineer
With nothing else to do, Thalia rebuilds a section of the wall.
The goat-herder arms himself with a spear.
The hunter runs up and fires onto the Uruk-hai below. He forgets to aim at the neck or under the arm, and their armor holds.
After coming up with a plan, the farmer and woodcutter run around the courtyard.
The farmer pries off one of the torches.
Farmer: "Got ya!"
Garrison Commander: "Uhm..."
Farmer: "Ready? Catch!"
Woodcutter: "Got it!"
Unfazed by the peasant's shenanigans, the Viking runs over to the low wall and attacks the skeleton. He survives, however.
Likewise, the Viking maiden climbs the ladder to the bulwarks.
And prepares to defend the fortress.
