Storm On The Horizon!

Post by TastySkippy123 » Fri Jul 01, 2016 7:51 am

Hi all! This is a game that I have been doing over email with a heap of friends and their friends. Bit like a forum battle, but not in a forum :)
I am currently up to turn 5, and will be posting each turn every time I have time to come on.

Since this is the begining of a story line I am trying to make, lets us begin with the prolouge...

A lone rider appears at the edge of a small forest with his stead...

Lone Rider:"Come Farstrider, the enemy is near!

Image

Some heavily armoured knight appear next to the Lone rider.

Royal Knight:"Jarl Starkowe, are we near? We have been riding for days!"

Image

A pair of archers arrive, panting.

Archer:"J-Jarl, w-we have a-arrived to fight b-beside you!"

Image

The rider, AKA Jarl Starkrowe, turns to the knights.

Jarl Starkrowe:"We have fighting to do, so no time for rest! Today we fight!'

Image

A small company of Deltoran Knights arrive on scene, after finally regrouping with the Jarl.

Image

The leader of the company, Sir Halberdax.

Sir Halberdax:"Ello there, I am Sir 'alberdax, commander of the Deltoa army!"

Image

A pair of rangers arrive on the battlefield.

Image

Ranger:"Commander, I have spotted the Jarl. This is the place for battle."

Image

Commander Hiroshi:"Today ree shall fight side by side rith our Western Brothers!"

Image

Jarl Starkrowe:"Come fellow men! Today we will rid the world of the Penalite evil! To victory!"

Image

Some black clad soldiers trudge through the snow.

Image

The troops form up, making room for an important figure...

Image

The Dark elf leader, Lord Eridinios.

Lord Eridinios:"Mage, have the forces fully gathered?"

Dark mage:"Yes M'lord, they are not far off."

Image

Lord Eridinios:"Then let us move to incenerate our puny foes! The Penalite will be pleased!"

The army charges forth.

Image

Cannons arrive to reinforce the Dark elves.

Image

Descendant Of Gumroar:"Boss, we have arrived with some big guns!"

Image

A group of dwarves have come to help whoever pays the most on gold, which was the Dark elves...

Image

A standard size minifig, who is actually a tall dwarf, leads the army.

Gordaf The Tall:"Alright you lousy barrels, the elves paid us handsomely, so no backstabbing em!"

Image

Meanwhile at a nearby fort...

Image

Savagefang:"Hey boss, we are surrounded."

Image

Liftface The Lame:"Alright savages, protect this fort!"

Image

An ork Horde comes to a halt near a desert oasis.

Image

The chieftain gets up on top of a rock.

Chieftain:"Lets go help our friends in that fort! Lets go kill some people!"

Image

After his aspiring long speech, the warriors charge forth into a battle.

Image

May I present, THE STORM ON THE HORIZON!

Image

The troops take response actions.

Image

Image

The dwarf doesn't listen, and his last breaths leave him.

Image

Another dwarf fell to crossbow fire, but was saved by a response action.

Dark Elves

The dark elf bard starts singing a heavy metal song about blood,fire and demonic sacrifices.

Image

The Penalite's are not pleased with his attempt at heavy metal, and knock him off his perch.

Image

The redcoats move forward, ignoring the failed attempts of the bard.

Image

The mage starts charging a spell..

Image

Fort Bandits

The lion warriors form a line on the wall, awaiting their foes to get in throwing range.

Image

Savagefang takes a suppression slice near the back door.

Image

Liftface starts using his wand.

Liftface The Lame:"Work for me baby! Please just once in ya miserable life!"

Image

He is successful, and creates a wall of flame, blocking off one of the white fort exits...

Image

or was it successful?

Lord Eridinos:"Ha! I am the master of fire!"

Poof!

He blows the fire out.

I will send rest of turn 1 soon!

Slaves

The cannons open fire.

*KA-BOOM!*

*KA-BOOM!*

*KA-BOOM!*

Image

The result aint pretty, but the two lions on the ground survived, with no scratches! Just dazed is all.

Image

Soldiers Of Deltoa

The bannerman waves the brand of Deltoran to inspire his comrades.

Image

He is successful, and the group move over a whole board! Just look at those shiny helmets!

Image

Jarl Starkrowe And Knights

The Jarl and his knights charge forward, trampling any small tree in their path.

Image

The archers follow after, as fast as they can. They then take a suppression fire on the fort.

Image

END OF TURN 1!!! STAY TUNED FOR TURN 2!! I would gladly like positive or negative feedback, so I can have better battles in the future!

Yeah that was a mistake, the kid controlling them gave orders in late. I have no source of artificial light like lamps to take pictures when its dark outside. Also the top story were I am doing this battle is kind of partially exposed to the elements(No front wall!)

What wall :D ? Yeah, the battlefield is open to all mother nature can throw at it. I am planning of building a 'Lego and Motorbike' shed.

Soldiers turn

Sir Halberdax calls two of his soldiers over.

Sir Halberdax:"Alright, you two go and attack the chief, then we will step in after a bit. Sounds good?"

Knight:"Whateva ya say boss."

Image

The soldiers charge, but amazingly both the chieftain and the soldiers were unharmed.

Image

The rest of the soldiers follow after.

Image

The ork second chops one of the soldiers clean in half.

Image

Sir Halberdax leaps at the ork chieftain.

Image

And brings the axe down on his helm.

Image

But he is saved by a redshirting ork.

Sir Halberdax:"Disgusting! Get off my axe!"

Image

He swings again, but yet another obedient underling jumps in the way, but Sir Halberdax's axe rips through the redshirt, and ends up killing both!

Image

Banditsturn

The lion bandits form up to protect the hole in the wall.

Image

Liftface tries to fry the archers.

Image

His wand just fizzles and the archers laugh.

Liftface:"Diceheads!"

Image

Savagefang leaps epically at Halberdax.

Image

His blade connects with Halberdax's gut, easily penetrating the chain mail.

Image

The Jarl tries to use his feat to help his fallen comrade get back up, but he critfails.

Image

Savagefang then severs the head off of a knight. After that, he takes a suppression slice in all directions,egging the enemy to come and face him.
