The Second Siege of the Dunlan Fortress - Turn 2

Post by Joshua » Tue Feb 07, 2023 10:27 pm

Peasants - Trollgineer

Image
The hunter fires his bow down onto the Uruk-hai.

Image
And kills an Orcish bowman!

Image

Woodcutter: "Spearman! Take this torch and light the siege tower ablaze!"

Image
The spearman deftly catches the torch.

Image
The woodcutter then walks over to the chest.

Image
And procures himself a weapon.

Image
The Viking again attacks the Elite Skeleton, but again fails to penetrate it's armor.

Undead - Bragallot

Image
The ice around Naeve's horse begins to melt, freeing it from it's grasp.

Image
Naeve and her bodyguard advance, while Naeve reinforces the ladders with magik.

Image
Over on the western flank, the armored skeleton grapples his opponent after his attack is blocked again.

Image
And he successfully shoves the spearman over the edge!

Image
The skeletons manning the ladder try to use it like a club, but lacking the strength, they futilely heave and groan at it.

Image
A halberd-wielding skellie uses his weapon's long reach to snag a defender on the walls.

Image
He topples below, dead.

Image
This skeleton wrestles with Sir Darius, but ultimately fails to shove him off the wall.

Image
More skeletons climb up the ladder.

Image
On the eastern side, the Elite Skeleton shoves the swordsman down into the courtyard.

Image
And the knight soon joins him.

Image
The spearman narrowly blocks an attack from another skeleton.

Image
More servants of Darkness ascend up the siege tower to join the fight. (The troll bellows out a song, but is has no effect)

Image
The crossbow skeletons again fire on their living counterpart, but continue to miss.

Black Knights - Trollgineer

Image
Sir Darius shoves his assailant off of the battlements!

Image
He lands below, disrupted but unharmed.

Image
Sir Darius then tries to throw off the ladder, but finds it too heavy.

Image
The ranged Black Knights fire at the disrupted skeleton below.

Image
And mercilessly execute him. (The other ranged units either failed or missed their targets)

Image
Although lying on the ground, the spearman fights on, although the Skeleton's armor proves too thick.

Image
Then he repositions and assumes a defensive posture.

Image
The Garrison Commander rushes into the fray, hacking and slicing at the Elite Skeleton.

Image
And he brings it down!

Image
The halberdier attacks another Elite Skeleton, but is parried by it's shield.

Image
Seizing the moment, the spearman winds back his arm for a terrific pitch!

Image
His aim is true, and the siege engine is set ablaze!

Image
The defenders of the northern ramparts form a shield wall to cover the damaged wall.

Uruk-Hai and Orcs - Mr. President

Image
The Uruk-hai hero climbs to the top branches and re-arms himself.

Image
He makes a magnificent leap!

Image
And impales himself on a static axe affixed to the wall... (though no damage is dealt)

Image
He does manage to finally free himself and kill the hunter.

Image
The Uruk-hai advance and ready their ladder.

Image
It slams down with a thud and a 'ca-chink'.

Image
Thalia quickly responds before the Uruk-hai can.

Image
And decapitates him.

Image
The ranged ones fire...

Image
And strike a knight at the neck!

Image
His corpse joins the Urul-hai's below.

Image
More Uruk-hai start scaling the ladder.
