*Looking at how well the Master rolled* We sure Frederick was fighting Caledor's Bane, and not a body double while he went for incognito rampage?

Edit: Eldyra... Wait, Khainite or not he's Drucchi, and there is a surefire telltale sign a Drucchi's lying: their lips are moving.

Well that was a rush, Did we kill that bastard or was it a body double? I kind of hope it was actually him since he wasn't taking us seriously at first and he might have been arrogant enough to not take Frederick seriously enough to fight him face to face and now he's dead or close to it.
 
MORATHI ? FUCKING MORATHI is HERE ?
please tell me i read that wrong and that there is another supreme sorceress who like to ride naked on a black pegasus
Between her and Tularis... shit this is not good
Also i really hope Eldyra is alive

Well, Holy shit.

We already made the Druuchi cost this raid more then it could've ever been worth it, but given the losses we suffered...and the fact that Eldyra is apparently dead and no more help coming...

Yeah, I think we are done. We ain't winning this. Let's sell our lives dearly and go to Morr with pride, since it is all we can do anymore.
This battle is lost and we are doomed. But let's make the Druuchi bleed as much as we can before it ends.

I don't believe it, its a bluff. Eldyra was noted to be gathering allies and wouldn't have made it in time to help us in Ostland before dark elves arrive, let alone meet them first.

Dark elves love playing mind games, so I won't believe this dick's words unless we see her corpse ourselves.
 
Well scalping isn't necessarily fatal; also that the classic druchi move for showing off the remnants of a dead person is their face skin, also also that i'm pretty sure we've been scalped or worse at one point. As in she could have gotten away and gotten healing kind of a deal. But we do know that canon characters can die, we've killed some of them. And I think the magmablood dwarf mercenary lord was a canon character too.
 
It is frustrating that seems like Freddy sucked out most of the luck with his own fight with Dreadlord that we lost wall since consistently rolled low there for most part, same with ogre archers dealing with other dragon.

Well you are a cheery one.

You don't have to be optimistic, but preferred if you weren't fatalistic either since the GM never gives us a fight we can't possibly win and while some parts of battle didn't go well we aren't dead yet.

"I was hoping you would reveal yourself," he continues, one hand behind his back, the other keeping his heavy two-handed blade against his shoulder. "Tell me, human. Do you think if you just hold out long enough, someone will be coming to save you? You precious Emperor? Your sister-in-law? You daughter?"

Your snarl does not seem to amuse or distress him, simply making him lift his chin higher.

"Or, perhaps…," his voice turns ever so sibilant, the faintest traces of cruel delight in his voice. "You expect aid from further afield than that? If so, then you will be left waiting until I sever your head from your body."

Man, hopefully Barak Varr shows up just to fuck on them right now. Also, I don't believe for a second that they got Eldyra- because if they did, he'd 100% show off her head instead of just bringing her hair. There's absolutely no way that he'd 'just' bring her scalped hair.

We still have Barak Varr to hold out hope for- and if that was Eldyra who died, I'd expect them to bring her head, not her scalped hair. I refuse to believe she's dead, because there's no way that he'd only bring her hair to show us. Absolute worst case, she's been scalped but got away.

No, I don't think this is it. Our forces got badly mauled, but we took out all but one of their dragons and their precious Dreadlord, and a lot of their other troops too. And we still have a couple cards in our sleeves, namely the flagellants.

And regarding our reinforcements... Even if he's telling the truth, he only said that Eldyra's fleet was destroyed. He doesn't seem to even know about the Dwarfs, so that's another thing going for us. As soon as the Ironclads appear in the horizon, the Druchii will have to retreat or else they risk having one or even both Arks destroyed.

I won't deny it: the odds aren't good. But I think there is still a very real chance of victory.

I agree that if he had Eldyra's head he'd show all of it but Torr absolutely would kill off a fan favourite off screen - the dice fall where they may.

True, but as Sadrina said she was busy gathering allies back home and she wouldn't make it to Ostland before dark elves arrived, so very unlikely she would have made it to them at all first or done something dumb like assault too black arks with only the small amount of forces she could get. Dark elves love playing mind games to throw off enemies.

Here is my plan idea by the way.

Figure best to let the flagellants to to try and disrupt dark elves before knight charge, give them what they want.

Have wood elves help take down annoying flying enemies, and should be more manageable with only one dragon left, if it comes out at all.

We lost about half of our artillery sadly, they've been MVPs for us for most of quest, so best to put them selves enemy artillery since we can counter monsters with ogres.

Finally let Freddy stay on walls to help command things better, Urgdug can handle gate defense well enough.

What do folks think?

[] Unleash the martyrs!
-[] Release the Flagellants onto the enemy as the elites attempt to advance to reach the Final Wall of Salkalten, then let the cavalry follow behind to wreak havoc before retreating back through the gates
-[] Focus on the enemy artillery that is now present on the battlefield
-[] Re-task the Eonir to focusing on the flyers to support the Whitewings and Oskana+Natasha with their superior accuracy ensuring no chance of friendly fire
-[] Stay on the walls, which carries its own dangers
 
So, to sum up the situation, we repelled the aerial attack, and killed 2 dragons out of 3 as well as killed one otf the enemy's commanders. On the ground we were driven back to the last wall, with serous casualties on both sides. Now the druchii are preparing the next assault with the Shackled elite and actual elven troops .
So my take on our choices:
Gate: let the flaggelants go first. They will not be coming back from this regardless whereas cavalry can if they are not trapped and going second they would have much better chances of not being trapped.

Artillery: one thing we can do is to blast our artillery at the enemy danger close just as our flaggelants are about to engage to hopefully disrupt the druchii lines further and enhance the flaggies impact. Afterwards... I suppose counter battery to allow our troops on the wall to fight with full efficiency is probably the best, but I can see myself being persuaded otherwise.

Flyers: we have at least one Lord level caster among the enemy fliers. So forcing them to retreat or better yet destroying them would be highly useful. Let Eoinir help there. Possibly let other troops help too, but friendly fire isn't , so probably just eonir. Also, remeber that the enemy does have one more dragon so making sure their other flyers are driven off before it comes back is very imortant

Personal: ogres can't fight on the wall too well, so going to the gate is the logical place for Urgdug to be. With that in mind I say we go to the walls. I trust our brother to hold that gate against anything.
 
the first force is the is the shackled right then the dread spears are behind maybe cav first is the right idea? the cav pirece the shackled formation then the martyres jump into the dread spears instead of the maytrd killing the shackled then the cav being hard countered by dread spears idk guys what do you think
 
In case it wasn't clear from the update, Anna ruthlessly spent the lives of your mercenary troops to preserve the actual state troops and such. She did not hesitate to tell them to die so that the regulars and elites could be pulled back. So you're down a lot of artillery as in the cannons propwr but actually still have a lot of non-merc troops remaining. Most, even. Including Engineers. Zero Eonir or Wizard Casualties.

Instead of utterly annihilating you, the Druchii are being forced to commit troops that were not expecting to need to be deployed until they'd reached the interior. And you still have a lot of troops on your side, they're just real tuckered out.

At the moment, the situation remains tenable, which is why neither emotionless utterly ruthless Anna nor brutal pragmatist Frederick has considered full retreat or begun saying that this is the last fight or final defiance or any somesuch as of yet based on their knowledge of the situation.

As Anna would put it if she were reporting to you:

"Troops exhausted but standing. Significant mercenary casualties. Enemy elites are advancing into range of our guns and blades. Enemy remains unaware of naval assets arriving from behind, heralded by High Matriarch. Situation excellent, am attacking."

High highs, and low lows. But if nothing else, the loss of two adult black dragons should put this firmly in the 'not worth it' category for the Delves attempt to regain prestige and remedy blows to pride.
