Round 1
Rangers - Brikguy
"Now where did I put it?" Mudi murmurs, rummaging through his bag.
"There it be!"
A small dwarven mech is added to the ranks, giving the rangers some much needed melee power. It's a slow-moving size two creation with relatively solid armour, armed with a hammer (large weapon) and a Roeispaan of Death (elite heavy weapon).
The rangers then form up and prepare to unleash hell. Those that are in range fire at Inferno.
A ghoul is compelled to redshirt, taking off just enough of the damage to let Inferno survive unharmed.
Dragon Knights - Alex
Brockram takes the main body of the battle group and forms them into a shield wall.
Sir Garth and the longswordsmen hurry up the cliff, crossbowmen close behind them.
Two open fire, the others haven't finished climbing.
The heavy swordsmen block the incoming arrows.
Chicken Man - Colette
The chicken man hops onto the wall.
"CAW CAW! CAW CAW CAW CAW!"
Unfortunately (for the chicken man), he rolls a '1' and falls down and no one really understands what he was trying to do. He's still alive though.
Woad Elves - Scratch
The amazons get into position.
Hunters follow suit.
Landor leads his warbands to the bridge. But he has more planned...
"Creatures of this wood! You were here long before Phineus' hordes even existed! Come and scour this undead blight from our world!"
A great whooshing sound is heard, and a mighty eagle-like beast descends on one of the trees, supporting itself with surprising grace for such a large creature.
Kamos the Skylord: "'OUR WORLD?' WHO ARE YOU TO GIVE ME ORDERS? ARE YOU NOT AS TRIVIAL AND INSIGNIFICANT AS THESE UNDEAD YOURSELF? AT LEAST THEY HAVE NO ILLUSIONS ABOUT CONTROLLING ME. I SHALL DRAG YOU BACK TO MY LAIR AND FEAST ON YOUR LIVER EVERY NIGHT FOR ALL ETERNITY TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR YOUR INSOLENCE!"
The feat failed horribly, and Kamos (Size 3 creature with 1d6 relative skill, beak (large weapon) and talons (heavy weapons), a tough hide and control over lightning and wind magic) is now out to kill Landor.
Landor: "Oh bugger."
Nimoë - Silverdream
The skeletons start swarming down, while Nimoë and her dark elves settle in the small fortification.
The undead army advances further across the walkway.
Nimoë: "You humans should have remained where you came from."
"Eat this!"
Nimoë's fire-based attack shreds a light ranger.
Crimson Knights - Battlegrinder
The Crimson Knights spread out, one group to each side.
Inferno - Zahru II
The ghouls rush forward, reaction fire taking two of them down.
The rangers draw knives and defend themselves, but the ghouls that are close enough gang up on them, killing two.
The fire wraiths move in. Those that can provide support fire with their head gems, but the rangers get lucky for now.
"Not like that. I shall see something BURN!"
Inferno's fire magic sets the tree behind the rangers on fire.
It crashes down, crushing and burning the ranger that was unfortunate enough to be standing there.

lol j/k
My brain must have been taking a break, because I was thinking you guys were talking about references to the movie Prometheus. Yes, the mythological reference was on purpose. I've been teaching some mythology to people last week so it's still in my mind. Our feathery friend's first name is also a reference.
