Colorville- Total War

[Dirty Spaceman]

The archers in the dragon's path attempt to dive out of the way. On the other side of the city walls, the General yells, "Quick! Before he gets to us! Fire again!" The archers who remain in formation load their bows and send the second volley, still aiming for the head and the wings.

Spoiler:

Lets see if i catch everything on fire. And who exactly is burned before we calculate the volley of arrows

[Dirty Spaceman]

Spoiler:

He can calculate both at the same time, hopefully. It's got to be somewhat realistic, not difficult for the sake of difficulty. My archers have to get some hits, even if a bunch of the other archers are burned.

[TP61]

Spoiler:

That's true and Impy(as you call him) is now offline. But my dragon has to have some plan to avoid arrows. Like dive down, or fly up.

[Imp]

Though, the dragon did get a surprising amount of people with that one blast of fire, the dragon was quickly shot down.

[Dirty Spaceman]

Spoiler:

I'll be optimistic and assume that you meant we killed it. Also, please factor healing into the totals for the battle. I didn't pick the medicine nation for nothing.

The General breathed a sigh of relief that the threat had been dealt with quickly. As Chief Medic Hopkins and his men rushed onto the scene to treat the injured and remove the dead, Johnson walked past the corpse of the dragon. After some thought, he got the unharmed men to help move the body out of the castle and into the swamp, where it soon sank into the gloomy water.

To Dragonheart17:
1500 brown and 2000 tan men were spotted taking out sentries.

To EpicAbrad:
5000 men of green and red, 40 siege towers, and 200 catapults were spotted trudging over your swamps, toward your castle.

[Dirty Spaceman]

Spoiler:

5000? That can't be right. Nobody has 5000 men left.

"My lord!" A messenger came running up to Brown, out of breath. "My lord, Green's army is marching towards the castle. I've been running for hours. By now, they must be almost there."
Brown's face went pale. "I knew we'd be attacked soon. Count Kunkel, go back with this soldier. Here's the plan."

Spoiler:

I will PM you the defense. Nice name change, by the way.

[Imp]

Spoiler:

There are alliances

As the Red and Green soldiers try to make it across the swamp slowly with their siege weapons, they are surprised by 250 short swords and another 250 with short swords and shields. Redland's melee force and numbers with Greenland's archers in high places took them down, but not without difficulty.

REDLAND- lost 100 halberds, 100 battleaxes, and 200 pikes and shields
2600 at Brownland

GREENLAND- took out a good amount with archers.
2000 at Brownland



Once the duo arrived at the castle, they were being shot by arrows before they could even see the people, they weren't very accurate, but startling. This was Greenland's turn to fight, firing arrows from the top of their siege towers.

REDLAND- They stayed a bit back
2600 at Brownland

GREENLAND- They took out the most, and got hit the most. The 100 Brownland archers started picking them off before Greenland could shoot.
1700 at Brownland


1500 Brownland soldiers rush out of the castle's walls, charging in with short swords and pikes. Again, they are put down by the 4200 remaining. But the duo also suffers heavy losses.

Redland- Lost 300 battleaxes, 300 halbers, and 200 pikes with shields.

Greenland- Needed to help Redland in melee combat
1000 at Brownland


Green easily sieged the castle, and what happened next was up to them. Brown was nowhere to be seen.

[Imp]

I need to wait for Red to PM me a defense.

[Imp]

Brown and Tan arrived at Redland and took out all of the sentries (30). They moved on, and nobody was outside the castle. They would need to siege the walls.

[Dirty Spaceman]

"I don't like the looks of this," said Brown. "It has 'trap' written all over it. Let's go back to the camp for now, and wait them out."

[poothoottoot]

"No Red and most of his troops are at your castle we must press on"

[Imp]

As Tan and Brown marched away from Redland, they reached their camp, and continued toward Brownland. Just when they left their camp, 300 Redland soldiers came at them from behind. 160 of the Redland men had flamberges and shields, 40 dual wielded flamberges. The 40 dual wielders attacked first, being the most stealthy, fast moving, and least armored. The 160 with shields progressed a bit more slowly. The last one hundred had halberds and attacked last.

The first 40 Red attacked, and took out 50 Tan arbalests, and 50 Brown infantry men.

The 100 halberd Redland men came in, and were taken down quickly due to their lack of armor and no surprise.

The last 160 Redland shielded troops came in and blocked a majority of the arrows, though, they were brutally outnumbered.

The rest of the Tan and Brown army moved on to Brownland, and met the rest of Redland and a portion of Greenland at a halfway mark.

Spoiler:

To be continued

[Imp]

The following battle was very intense, with about 3000 on each side, but many siege weapons on one side. Archers fired, men were healed, swords clashed, and flaming balls flew. Tanland took out a large amount of people with arbalests, Redland suffered, and so did Brownland. Greenland did good, but also suffered. Without further ado, here is what has happened.

Redland charged in, weapons at the ready. They were going in full power screaming their warrior shouts. Red was on the front lines, obviating everything in his path. Tanland men struck arrows in the Redland men's eyes, as Redland reigned hell upon Brownland. Brownland limbs were torn apart, and many were healed, though arrows from siege towers pierced the skulls of most doctors as they lay out the mats to heal the patients. Tanland archers did their best to take out the heavy siege weapons, which caused Greenland to suffer greatly. Redland's men killed the last of Brownland, and Brown died in the confusion, his head being decapitated. Red became the last Redland man alive, and the arrow from an arbalest penatrated through his shield to the other side of his head, causing an instant collapse.

REDLAND-
0

GREENLAND-
200 men at the battle, 3 catapaults 1 siege tower

BROWNLAND-
0

TANLAND-
800 men at the battle

Green and Tan stopped the fighting. Tan and Green walked to the middle of No Man's Land. They were just fighting for their alliances, which were both dead. They could choose to keep fighting, or cease until later notice.

[Justice knight]

Green approached Tan.
"We fought for our alliances- both of which are gone," Green said, "We may be enemies now but neither of us will be able to stand against blue alone, we need to work together and allow the last battle to be on even ground against us."

[poothoottoot]

"I see your point" said Tan eyeing green warily. "also considering what happened after grey died it's bound to happen threefold now. You have yourself a new ally green. Expect a courier when I have gathered my troops for the assault." With that Tan turned around and mounted his horse. Raising his bow he yelled, "Men back to the castle!" as him and his troops departed.

[Justice knight]

Green sighed with relief before signiling his own men to return to Greenland.

[Imp]

When Tan arrived at the castle, troops from Blueland could be seen coming in. They began shooting down sentries and killed 100 sentries.

Spoiler:

I need defense plans poothoottoot.
If you want to make offensive plans while you are waiting, Sav, that would also be beneficial.

[Imp]

Spoiler:

The battle will begin once poothoottoot gets in the plans.

[poothoottoot]

Spoiler:

Sorry I haven't been able to post and I just got caught up in the way of the voice so expect my battle plans by tomorrow evening at the latest.

[Imp]

Spoiler:

I understand that this has been waited on for a long time, (sorry) so I am just going to post the basics.

Blue attacks Tan castle with great surprise, many men, and many catapults. Blue retreats when Blueland loses 1000 men, and 100 men are shot down on the way out.

TAN=1500
BLUE=900

[Imp]

Spoiler:

I was told that there are some people that didn't know the battle occured for some reason, so I am just putting this up to give everyone the new post sign. If people don't start participating again after awhile I think I will just pronounce it dead.

[Imp]

Spoiler:

Yep, this is officially dead by my standards.
