I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING

You're starting to make me associate these words with salt...
I get the complaint, but I'm trying to make this feel like a battle not just a skirmish, to give it proper weight. That said the fact that I'm missing updates can't be helping with the feeling of being drawn out.
Sorry for that guys.

It's feeling drawn out to me, too. I'm waiting for Tiamat to actually make her move, for F!Aegon or any of the clerics to show up, but nothing so far.
That Tiamat Avatar had better be spectacular.

Eeeeeh, I'm just not really motivated to read/participate lately, not salty.
And the proclamations of naps are known as an effective way to summon DP...

How's this, ya'll?
@Artemis1992, I don't want to send Dany over to help yet. She might not be needed, and I don't like the idea of depriving her of the upcoming confrontation.
[X] Team Viserys keep to the plan to deal with the temple first, that is the heart of their power.
-[X] Team Vee will halt Elemental Summoning for the time being. Instead, escorted by Team Minotaur, the Adamantine Golem, and Team Havoc's as of yet undeployed Nekro-Kraken (now under Maester Qyburn's direct control), will make their way close enough to the dimensional breach into the Dreamlands that Vee can attempt to seal it using her Dimensional Lock spells. Their Fireflies and Glass Golems will be used to spring traps rather than attempting to bypass them, where possible.
-[X] Team Yss, while still in reserve, prepares to intervene should more Nightmare Dragons exit the dimensional breach before it can be closed.
-[X] Team Malarys:
--[X] Malarys will use his Reached Sacramental Seal spell to imprison the Stunned Nightmare Dragon before it can regain its senses.
--[X] Rina will direct her Fell Drain Boreal Wind against the remaining Drakes. If a Nightmare Dragon comes within range, she targets it with all four chains from her Fell Drain Barbed Chains spell. If not, she instead targets the nearest one with Boneshaker, timed so that she can interfere with its movements in some detrimental manner, especially if it is attempting to dodge Tyene's Sunbeam.
--[X] Waymar targets the two new Nightmare Dragons with a Born of the Three Thunders augmented Extraordinary (ignores SR) Lightning Lance. While the potential damage is nice, the goal is to Stun them using the special effect from the Born of the Three Thunders ability.
--[X] Tyene casts Assay Spell Resistance, then uses a Sunbeam spell, targeting one of the new Nightmare Dragons in an attempt to Blind it.
-[X] The Moonchaser, Wyverns, and Erinyes Kill Squads will continue harrassing the Drakes so that they cannot interfere with our other people.

It is absolutely not feeling drawn-out to me. It's a huge battle, of course it takes a while. It could take two more IRL weeks and I'd be absolutely fine with it!
Please please please don't rush through things unless it's absolutely necessary.
Not rushing through it = more twists and turns, which is very interesting and appropriate

Agreed. We're five rounds of combat into this battle. That's roughly 30 seconds, maybe a little more to account for movement and battlefield confusion.
If DP wasn't running it like this, we'd be on autopilot and that would drive me bonkers...more bonkers, I should say.

Some might say risk averse, others could even call it violently paranoid.
When they really are out to get you, though, and you not only know the afterlife is real but also predominantly populated with assholes who would love to get their grubby mitts on your soul, well, then it's just being properly prepared.

I like the combat so far, but every time DP's internet gives out I give more thought to a patreon or something to pay for reliable internet.
I'd throw some money at that.

Unfortunately, it would take more than crowd-funding to update Romania's internet infrastructure.
