kreen did you just volunteer someone else for a dangerous task?
We have a Hersir specifically for that, don't worry. DeadmanwalkingXI is officially in charge of our military.

Check. Well, we evacuated our people and have no livestock, so I think we meet them at the village. Well, right outside the village behind the defenses we're constructing.
Specifically me. The commander. Who can't leave the battle for that reason.
But it was clearly a typo, so it's no big deal.

The fight will apparently be broken into smaller sections and occur over the course of the next few days.

I mean, she probably could accomplish some reasonably awesome things by picking up a shield and an axe or something, but if it's not her style, it's not.
Good call evacuating the noncombatants, by the way.

@Guest99 in terms of your strike team, looking at your Seeing Eyes options I recommend Rikard Villeson. He's a solid pretty high tier combatant along with his Seeing Eyes. Hit Alectai up for that.
Ragnarr's own family are among them. It leapt to mind.

Bjorn would be up for mercing a necromancer and hes unlikely to be the most efficent at the main battle itself.

Unfortunately, we left already...
That's a different team.

I do not have any combat skills. Especially since I have not had the chance to really practice my warding yet.

All of us are ok at fighting, same as how we're all ok at farming and house building.
And these guys are chumps, albeit ones who get back up after they've been killed.

All norse have some level of combat skills, having a rank of 1 means it's good enough to be literal Magical.
But against these skeletons that are described as 'normal human level strong', combat 0 can still 1v1 them handily. You're a superhuman even if you're not a combat savant super human.

Ragnarr casually killed one with baseline level Norse combat prowess and nothing else (I had Emotion Kunna, but it doesn't work on these things). You can fight them just fine, and per IF, all PCs will indeed be doing so.

Yeah. It's like how it's sort of assumed that Erik knows how to thatch a roof or sow crops without having a special skill in it. You CAN specifically play a Norsewoman who's basically never picked up a weapon in her life and simply cannot fight effectively in hand to hand, but it's absolutely not required unless you're doing it for the aesthetic.

Using Frenzy, you determine that any plan that the skeletons could reasonably utilize involves these two components;
1. Drown the defenders in normal skeletons while preparing to hammer-and-anvil with the cavalry and goliaths.
2. Use the goliaths to throw large rocks—potentially balls of skeletons? or logs?—at the defenders/Rekavidr to attack

Always handy to have a berserker around! Until, y'know, the "going berserk" part.

This information is great. We can defend against the second one, but we hadn't thought of it. Anyone wanna spitball options? Ice-walls, sniping their attacks out of the air, just reversing their momentum in a few ways...there's stuff to be done.
He doesn't even have berserkergang. Neither of our berserks actually do, so this is less likely. Not impossible, but less likely.
That would be the Norns.
