*Whacky laughs as he sees his army getting slaughtered, as Sir M's warriors seem to just have finihed off his army with a wave of his hand the archmges and necromancers resurrect them to the surprise of Sir M and his tired army, tides stard to turn again and lumbering Behemoths pick out the heavy cavalary and reduce it to bits, as thuderbirds swoop down the sky striking lightning onto Sir M's shock troopers. Just as it seems that Whacky has made his move, an armoured warrior appears from out of thin air, it seems that whacky has called for a favour on his friend, the almighty tempest, which not only prevents Sir M from using the forces of nature against whacky and his forces, but his appearence radiates an aura of sheer power, the earth begins to shake, rain, ice, thunder, lava and fire rain upon Sir M's battered army, it seems that he'd have to call upon his reserve forces for he cant seem to be able to resurrect his forces, little does he know that whacky has ordered his vennom spawns to spit acid on the bodies of the dead preventing Sir M from raising his army from the dead. Sir M's clerics watch in frustration as whacky's army devastates the GA*

Damn! I cant find "dance the spears" ah well; I give up (looking for it).

ASHA'MEN! RELEASE! *laughs as the Asha'men rain down "fire and earth" on the black dragons... weaves Baelfire... ASHA'MEN! BAELFIRE! CRUSH THE INVADERS! AIEL ADVANCE! DAMANE! BAELFIRE!*

What is the G.A.? and if it involves thwarting evil, where do i sign up? :D

<font color="silver">OKAY YOU TWO KNOCK IT OFF!!

Calaethis, I'm happy you found the song because I like it too, but we have rules for a reason. The reason being things don't get too childish, and pointless. Try and cut it out, I don't want to pull rank. Don't go overboard with the Asha'man! PLEASE!

Whacky, you must admit you MAY have overdone it, just a little bit with your followers.

I can accept mages, and a bunch of dragons, because we would have Asha'man, to even things out, but the rest is overboard. Especially the last part.

EVERYONE TRY AND ACT MORE MATURE!! I would have liked a battle without Asha'man, or maybe even mages. But when in moderation, its okay. MODERATION!!

EDIT: wrong color. [img]smile.gif[/img]

EDIT 2: I will PM you Dagorion.</font>

Sir M did i EVER EVER EVEN ONCE object to Legolas joining you, if so why can i call favours on my friends, after all its 3 against one, and all the creatures i invoked were legal and the moves were totally standard, i can stop if you like and be moderate but if you only be a bit more considerate and creative, its not an offence, just a request!
Or if you want it can be a classic non-magical battle of might against might, with only humans involved! :D

I doubt such measures will have the desired effect ;)
Unfortunately, this thread is neither in the RP forum nor did you create it, so there's no real way you can decide such a thing and hope to have it enforced. And it is not as if Calaethis is constantly off-topic.
Why don't you try asking him kindly to play by the 'rules' from now on instead (consider yourself asked, CD ;) ), and if he finds it impossible to do so, stop posting here and take the fight to the Roleplaying forum, where players will have no choice BUT to follow the rules you set if they wish to play at all?
Also ask yourself this; is this thread worth the hostility you allow it to create?

Sir M, I fear that I cannot join you in your fight right now. My two fighting groups are first a small band of Ranger Protectors, who are too few in number to make much of a difference in a fight of this scale, and second one which is able to make a huge impact, but has sworn to oppose the GA should it try to take over the world,and certainly not to assist it even in times of relative peace. I'm speaking of the Tartan army in this instance. Fighting side by side will not be an option right now ;)

As you command my lord; I just didnt like his dragons. That was annoying. btw, where'd u go to? *orders pikemen to form a square, with archers at the rear; swordsmen cover the flanks; and calvery charge around from either side; "Asha'men SHIELDS!" orders troops to sing: *

"We'll sing all day and drink all all day
and on the girls we'll spend our pay,
and when its gone we'll go away
to dance with Jak o'the shadows...

There'res some delight in ale and wine,
and some in girls with ankles fine,
by my delight, yes, always mine
is to dance with Jak o'the Shadows..."

My dear Legolas, i want to tell you and anyone else in the misconception that by posting all this i really mean it, i dont want create any hostility, i and Sir M are really good friends and i respect him and kaltia a lot, this is just a game and as for CD he can do whatever he likes and i expect him to break rules so that i can spank him, to him im being a bit rough as he too sounded like that, i must again say that if anyone feels offended i'll gladly apologize. You should all know that i dont mean to be an enemy.
Edit: i made a typo :D

<font color="silver">Thanx agian Legolas. Don't worry about not being able to help in this fight. Perhaps another day, if we arn't at each other's throats. ;) :D

Whacky, I'm just saying THIS part is overdone: </font>

lumbering Behemoths pick out the heavy cavalary and reduce it to bits, as thuderbirds swoop down the sky striking lightning onto Sir M's shock troopers. Just as it seems that Whacky has made his move, an armoured warrior appears from out of thin air, it seems that whacky has called for a favour on his friend, the almighty tempest, which not only prevents Sir M from using the forces of nature against whacky and his forces, but his appearence radiates an aura of sheer power, the earth begins to shake, rain, ice, thunder, lava and fire rain upon Sir M's battered army,

<font color="silver">Look at it. Thunderbirds, an almighty tempest, Behemoths?? I would prefer either a battle of just regular troops. (but you must first state their numbers for future reference ;) or a battle of regular troops, with us also have a small number of Asha'man, and you having dragons, that would be pretty even.

Which do you want? If its neither than count me out. (unless you think of something better...) </font>

I am pleased to hear it [img]smile.gif[/img]

hmmm - can't be bothered to read pages of this stuff. Who's on opposing side because I'm in the mood for getting medieaval with something sticky [img]tongue.gif[/img]

tsk. this IS a game. YOU EXPECT ME TO WHAT?!?!?!?! BAH! this isnt serious u know! geeeeeez some ppl take things toooo far. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hey look ,I finally got a decent picture with my rank again :D

LS, My lord you are here, see this no gooders, they were threatening to kill your humble servant so he had to wage war, please it'd be an honour to fight by your side, then it'd be pretty even 2 of us against 2 of them.
Ok Sir M just regular troops, human only, no magic allowed, ok ??

P.S. CD i didnt take any of this seriously except for the battle that is happenin now !

[ 08-24-2002, 08:05 PM: Message edited by: whacky ]

*Orders Archers to hide in the trees (1500); Orders pikemen to form a sqaure; 128 men a piece... 6 squares... Orders swordsmen to squirmish and protect the pikemen and archers; orders cavelry to harry the flanks of the enemy*

is that ok Sir M?
*and orders them to sing the song [img]tongue.gif[/img] *

We'll sing all day and drink all all day
and on the girls we'll spend our pay,
and when its gone we'll go away
to dance with Jak o'the shadows...

There'res some delight in ale and wine,
and some in girls with ankles fine,

<font color="silver">Okay, Whacky, I agree. But you must tell LS the truth. [img]smile.gif[/img]

LS, the G.A. has allied with your rebellion, and Whacky decided to defect so we decided to battle it out. Says so back there a few pages. ;)

Whacky you must say how many troops you have, including reinforcements and reserves, that way we can't argue later that

"Hey you didn't have those troops! Your cheating!"

"no I'm not"

Got my point? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'll post mine here in a few seconeds. Oh, and I'd say a limit of 50,000 would be good enough... don't you think?</font>

<font color="silver">Thats good Calaethis, I will hold the main army because I'm higer rank. And I think that it should be 25,000 no more, and even reaching that would be alot. :eek: </font>

Just one problem, Whacky - I'm a Brit and it's bedtime LOL!!!

However:

*gives Whacky 3 Type V Darklings to use - these guuys bust up Balros for breakfast* :D

Have ta go. cya

<font color="silver">Main Army:

7,500 swordsmen, in several rows.
2,500 archers behind them.
5,000 heavy calvary in reserve.

Plus Calaethis's. There. I don't think thats over the limit.... is it? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Yeah it does... it equals 17,268 men.

EDIT: Bye Calaethis. I will controll your forces for you. :D That is, of course unless Whacky wants to put this off till sometime tommaro? (I don't really..... but.....)</font>

[ 08-24-2002, 08:18 PM: Message edited by: Sir Mandorallen ]

You should also let him know that i did NOT defect and i have created my own faction which serves chaos and evil.

Ok now for the standard battle:
Note: i must let you know Sir M that out troops should keep their alignments straight, you can have only good and i can have only evil, neutral chars are possible if you like.General troops like swordsmen and archers can be common and in huge numbers, but specialised troops like paladins or assasins must be a bit reasonable.
Ok now for the battle

*Orders his pike men to form the face of the army(10000 men) divided equally in four lines, positioned behind them on the cliff are (3000) elite archers and crossbowmen ready to fire on command, hides his assasins(100) somewhere secret. As an added note whacky's bandits pick up the GA's women and leave with them :D *
Ok a final word on my army
8000 pikemen
1750 archers
1750 crossbow men
500 Assasins
3000 Dread Knights
1000 Ninjas
3 Type V darklings courtesy of Lord Shield
1000 random specializes forces
50 battle commanders
3 Tactical advisers
5 Specialist Reavers

<font color="silver">**The six Pikemen boxes form up, right in the path of Whacky's forces. The archers inside are ordered to fire and a rain of arrows fall upon Whacky's men. The swordsmen are moved into the boxes, and use their sheilds as defence agianst an arrow attack. Calaethis's calvary attack both flanks of Whacky's forces, supprising them.**

The main army advances as close as possible but stay behind the pikemen boxes. They all await battle as best a man can.....**

And if you so much as TOUCH our women..... you will face the concequeces!!!! [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] </font>

Ok now here's the deal the pikemen stand in 6 rows and behind them standing on a cliff are the archers, the archers fire using full advantage of the height. The pikemen slowly start moving forward with the first row trying their best to block the arrows using shields.

P.S. Not too shabby for a first timer eh !

<font color="silver">Pretty good Whacky! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] But Pikemen can't and don't use sheilds, the pike is too long and is two-handed. :( Good idea thou.

**Whacky's forces advance upon the pikemen boxes moving straight into a field of metal, many fall, but many G.A. pikemen do as well. As pikemen fall, the box contracts, as G.A troops shift to keep the formation. The swordsmen inside start to move out and engage Whacky's forces as well.**

**Suddenly a order is shouted, and the commanders relay it across the field. The main army, 10,000 strong begin to advance. The archers let loose their arrows, on the mass of pikemen battling, stiking both those who Whacky controls and those in the G.A. The swordsmen in their straigt lines advance into hte mele, slaying all they can.**

**While the battle in the front may be on the side of the G.A., on the flanks is another story. Calaethis's calvary are taking heavy losses, as Whacky's forces contract upon them. They begin to fall back Southward toward the rear of Whacky's forces**</font>

A pikeman expecting a lot of misslie fire might carry a shield to battle, securing it on his back or dropping it to the ground when the time came to use the pikes ;)
Of course, they wouldn't be using the shield while advancing as they needed both hands to carry the pike along...

Whoops!! Sir M's army is ambushed by whacy's assasins, many fall but so do some of his assasins, with their initiative losts after a few rounds they decide to retreat back into the woods, looking for another moment to strike. The ambush is followed by a very co-ordinated and well planned attack by the ninjas(combat+death specialists) which ignore the pikemen shield due to their superior agility and excellent martial art skills and take out quite a few archers out, but unfortunately for whacky, Sir M's forces slaughter any ninja that they can catch!

<font color="silver">Yeah, thats what I mean Legolas. With all of his Pikemen advancing, he, obviously couldn't use shields. If he had more in reserves he could have them use them though.

Thanx agian. :D

You seem to just jump in helping out all the time. ;) </font>

<font color="silver">**As Sir Mandorallen watches he grows more and more vexed. Assasins came out of nowhere and slew almost twice thier number. Luckly they lost quite a few of their own. Then right afterward Ninjas sneak past his pikemen killing many. The last wasn't so bad as the Ninjas lost so many it most likely wansn't worth it, but that was beside the point.**

**The main battle was a good as over, with Whacky's pikemen all but obliterated. But that was not enough. Many more enimies are still present. And Sir Mandorallen had lost a good deal of men. He signaled for the cavalry to attack. Three archers with bows, nearly as tall as they were fired flamming arrows to signify the attack.**

**Sir Mandorallen grimiced. He would have sent an Asha'man to send the message, but they were too busy at Domoni(sp) Wells to help. The arrows would do, however. Soon behind Whacky's forces horses could be seen. Many horses. 5000 heavy calvary, almost immune to arrows came riding up the cliff straight into Whacky's archers. Also nearly three thousand of Calaethis's calvary were there, the only ones left from the feint attack on the flanks.**

**Sir Mandorallen grinned. Today was going to be a good day.** </font>

Sir M can we continue this later please, i'll make the post tomorrow, im very very sleepy now and i have to go to sleep, please, with your permission, we can continure from where we left!

Non illegitamae carborundum!

<font color="silver">Sure no problem Whacky. Tommaro it is. I don't know when I'm gonna get on though. :\

But if I'm on when you are, we can continue. :D :D Otherwise it will have to wait. So, just the next time we are both on. Okay?

Good night! ;) </font>

No problem. I've nothing better to do than playing the unofficial umpire ;)
Well, unless you count sleeping as something better [img]tongue.gif[/img]

EDIT: You know what, I think I'll get some sleep anyway [img]smile.gif[/img]
Don't wait for me when you continue this, I'm sure you can take care of most issues easily enough, and I'm certain it's more fun if you can get to posting straight away ;)

[ 08-25-2002, 06:20 AM: Message edited by: Legolas ]

Ok Sir M bye, see ya tomorrow, dont worry we'll continue this tomorrow!
Awww legolas im sorry, but i really have to sleep, i havent slept for like 28 hours, i cant take this anymore, dont worry though when we're all ready we could continue it tomorrow with you being the umpire!

<font color="00cc99">*yawn* ah! good morning all, nice day for pilliging something isn't it? ;) </font>

<font color="00cc99">Oi Whacky! message from Kaltia: "In the Charge of Chaos can you inform him I'll not even be able to thread what's left of him through the eye of a needle!"
.............
- lol :D Your lucky 'cos Kaltia is having problems connecting to IW at the moment ;) </font>

i'M BAAAAAAAACK, WHACKS! Donut-legitimate carbon/oxygen based gas launched at that *&*&£ Whacky! *sighs* I'll have to get another commander, whacks, shame; you were doing great until you breathed. :(

Oi, whacks, new from the front line, as heard by the town criers:
"LOLTH ORDERS HER CHILDREN BACK TO THE UNDERDARK!"
"tAKHISIS AND TIAMAT TEAM UP WITH THE PLATINIUM FATHER TO PUT WHACKY'S ARMY DOWN!"
"HOARDS OF PISSED-OFF DRAGONS OVER TAKE WHACKY'S LANDS!"
"DARLANTIAN AND AURORA DESTROY HALF OF WHACKY'S ARMY!"
"SCREAMS OF PAIN HEARD AS KALTIA SHOWS WHACKY WHY SHE'S THE NUMBER 1 TORTURER!"
"DEMOGORGON DESTROYED BY BAATEZU PRINCE!"
Once you've worked out who/what I mean, bye bye!

And leave Calaethis alone, you idiot. [img]graemlins/whipitgood.gif[/img]

Followed by a Prince of the Baatezu, Takhisis and Tiamat tha mammoth, 5-headed dragons, a horde of pissed off silver beastie and Kaltia riding a gold with a dragonlance firmly in hand and a portable rack behind the saddle. I'm not in a good mood.

Sorry Kaltia i'm not gonna post shit in this forum anymore, i didnt know that i was posting spam and i've already got my first ever locked thread and it hurts a lot, but if you really want to wage war like me and sir m did come to the roleplaying forum, i dont like to be warned twice neither should you, mind you dont take advantage of the leniency of mods at IW i've seen mods which are much more strict and people really really hate it when they turn on them, so stop the crap and lets take it to the RP forum where it really belongs! Thank you!
