On Thread Etiquette:
I'm not going to weigh in on the logic of either side's arguments, but I will ask that everyone read over what they write and really consider if the words they used are polite and won't be inflammatory intentionally or not. You cant account for people's tolerances perfectly but at least try to say your piece without saying things that can be easily construed as overly dismissive of the other side of the argument, thank you.

Please endeavour to be cordial. :^)

[X] [Battle] Join Otrek: You entrust your weapon's safety to the Huskarls and Master Runesmiths guarding it. You are no prodigious fighter, but your Runes and if need be, your axe, will be useful regardless. Otrek and the King of the Skies will need all the help they can get.
[X] [Thrower] The Retaliator: Use it, train it on Kholek, though it will mean it won't be firing at the other Dragon Ogres present, and must still hit Kholek. +70 to Hit on Kholek, you won't see these rolls but +35 killing Dragon Ogres.

Let's hope the other runesmiths pull their weight this time.

the surprise effect shouldn't be as strong this time. We left high level runesmiths and huskarls. No joke

[X] [Battle] Stay by the Bolt Thrower: you'll guard the siege engine firing Dragon's Spite with the Group of Huskarls and Runesmiths assigned to the task, making sure no sabotage or destruction can come upon by tricksy daemons. It means you aren't close enough to aid Otrek with your weapons OR your runes.

[X] [Thrower] The Reckoner: Its strike will deal terrible damage, but it must hit. Less damage than the Retaliator, but it leaves the other Bolt Thrower free to kill the other Dragon Ogres with abandon. +50 to first Hit.

Aigloss · May 1, 2020

So Retaliator and joing Otrek won. Lets hope it was correct choice and let us pray to Ancestros (RNG Gods)

ArchAIngel · May 1, 2020

Grimnir, Grant us a mote of Your fury. Thungi, strengthen our runes so to Dreng the enemy. Valaya, let us protect this Hold. Grugni, grant our walls the strength to see this through. Smednir, may the weapons and armor we forget be fell and potent enough for your notice. Morgrim, may your creations smite this fel host to the hell they came from.

And if all fails, Gazul, receive us in your halls.

You know, that makes me wonder if we could make a partner banner to Ancestral Aegis, but focused on fighting more spiritual threats, and shielding the souls of dwarves from interference and harm, living or dead:

Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Gazul, Rune of Sanctuary

so basically a burning anti undead field?

Master Rune of Valaya, Rune of Grimnir, Rune of Battle would probably be a better companion Banner. Valaya calls Grimnirs line to Battle and bolsters them in their charge. Or something like that.

Gazul is his own thing. We make a Banner of him I'd like it to be Rune of Gazul, Rune of Grungni, Rune of Grimnir. The Three Brother Gods watch their children and guard them in their own ways.

Alternatively Rune of Gazul, Rune of Sanctuary, Rune of Stoicism. Because the third one is supposed to remind the Dwarbes of their ancestors or somesuch and Gazul is the one who guards souls and all that.

Also a "Screw you chaos, this one is mine." field for the Dwai that die in battle.

June · May 1, 2020

The Valaya-Gazul-Sanctuary banner would probably do better to protect the souls of the fallen dwarves, but worse to bolster them in protecting their homes or other physical objectives. In battle, I think the second is likely the more immediately useful; the first belongs more in a battlefield hospicethan in the middle of a fight.

I see no reason not to have three banners. Maybe they'd even combo when used together.

Though I suspect it'd work better if each master rune was only used once, so either a different ancestor to go with Grimnir, or the regular Valaya rune? Maybe the regular Grungni rune?

Yeah after this we could try and learn the Master Runes of Grimnir and Gazul. Plus the other Ancestors too. I really do want a matching set of Banners for each of them atop the Hold now. Each legendary on their own and something more together. Like a monument to this.

I'd agree, but if the grimnir-battle-? Banner is already at work doing that, I figure stuff like daemon weapons that rip out and devour souls deserve their own special brand of dwarven 'screw you' applied.

damn. here's to hoping the bolt throwers aren't assaulted with out us there.

I mean, they will be assaulted. That's inevitable.

What we should hope for is that the longbeards and runesmiths defending it prove formidable enough to successfully guard it.
They will be tireless and fearless, and supercharged by the Banner, at least.

tri2 · May 1, 2020

combo trio banners?

banner 1 master rune of valaya, rune of grimnir, rune of grugni
banner 2 master rune of grimnir, rune of valaya, rune of grugni
banner 3 master rune of grugni, rune of valaya, rune of grimnir

have all three in one army
