Again the Gulega is crowded, and again it is lured into the trap. Thaddeus, the Mages leader, powered the pillar and helped bring the beast to 24%.

As a last hurrah, the Gulega attacks all of your troops with a strange tentacle attack that severely drains them. For the next turn, all of your troops will only have 1 lifepoint individually, meaning any damage they take will incur very heavy losses.

... By the way, there appears to be a portal that has opened up in the area where the pillar launched the attack. Your troops can hear strange sounds from within.

Battle for Frozen Lake
- Auto Resolution -

[attr="class","bandos"]

Your troops march forward as if in any normal battle - Melee in front, Distance troops in the back. Using this age-old tactic, they take out the wallasaki's lounging around the openings in the ice. Sigurd goes forth and take down ten on his own... Before they realize what they're up against.

Up ahead your troops see, what originally thought to be a building-sized boulder, lifts its massive head, revealing it to be the Megawallasaki in the reports. Your troops head towards the beast to begin to take it down - Berserk Rhynocs leading the charge. The giant beast launches a magical blast that hits the rhynocs dead on, and then is confused as to how its targets are still standing.

The rest of your army catches up and begins hacking away at the monster. Sigurd watches at first, opting to jump in when his troops begin to struggle. Intently focused on the battle, he suddenly notices the strange sounds of something eating nearby. He looks to the side, where he had left the corpses of the wallasaki's he killed; he finds the massive head of the Narwhal from Mammoth Strip lazily eating the wallasaki's.

Eventually the narwhal looks over at Sigurd, who was amazed to see the creature in person. The narwhal finished eating and then returned to the sea. Sigurd turns back to his troops, only to suddenly hear the splash of the narwhal surfacing again. It then pointed its massive horn at the wallasaki and launches a blast of magic at it, dealing great damage with the assistance of your troops. It then retreated to the water again.

Despite this, the Megawallasaki continued to fight, and your troops began to struggle. Sigurd took this moment to rush forward. With a running start, he does a massive jump and manages to latch onto his foe, where he proceeded to claw, scrape, and stab at the monster with his horn before letting go.

As the fight drew to a close, the wallasaki prepares another powerful magic attack. Your troops, busy with the kill, did not notice until it was far too late to run. The beast launches the massive attack... Only to find your troops have been blocked by a magical shield. As it turns out - the Wallasaki swam to the other side of the lake in order to eat the remaining corpses, and was now lounging its head against the ice, content and full.

... AND FREEZEFRAME! This battle will continue next month from this very moment. STAY TUUUUNED.

All Logrean forces retreat for the turn save for 39 from K16.  They scatter, to minimise the affects of the beast's spit, and distract the creature from the rest of the army by any means necessary: attacking it, taunting it, shouting, anything to draw its attention.  Also, they should never stop moving.  If possible, they will also seek to draw it towards beneath the SE pillar.  If they are able to do so, the Guardians are to let loose another magical bolt.

[attr="class","armadyl"]

Your troops begin their retreat from the beast as your riders bravely face it head on. They scatter their ranks into groups of five in order to attempt to make the Gulega feel crowded. They successfully back the creature further and further into the range of the pillar and then the relay of information leads the mages to begin charging the attack.

The Gulega finally has caught on to your ploy, though, and begins thrashing on the ceiling with its long tentacles. The pillar continues its charge, so the Gulega prepares a magical blast to try and counter the incoming attack.

Both attacks hit, and the resulting explosion does a number on the cavern. The ceiling gives way, starting with the area over the Gulega, and quickly collapses outward.

"Churra! Watch out!"

...

The whole room collapses, but your retreating army appear safe. They look up to see that they are being protected by strange, horned humanoids using their magic as a shield. Your riders, as well as many of the Guardians are not so lucky.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!? AND WHO ARE THOSE FREAKS??

Battle of McGrubor's Wood, Seventh Hour

The Logrean forces maneuver between the Guardians and the Gorajo. The commander speaks to the Guardians:

"Guardians of Armadyl, think what you do. These beings did not kill your leader and destroy your homes. That was the beast Guelga that did so. I saw it with my own eyes, as did my troops. Its power collided with the power your mages poured into the pillars and collapsed the cave's roof. Thus, justice for this atrocity is already done. To harm these beings for the crime of another would be a mockery of Armadyl's justice.

"In fact, I do believe, from the portals I saw opening beneath the pillars your mages were charging, that these beings are even among those responsible for aiding to carry out that justice. After it was dead, too, it was they who saved us, your allies, from being crushed by the cave-in. Why would your enemy help those aiding you? Trust us: we who have fought bloody hours at the cost of many lives to aid you: these beings are not the foe.

"Along with these matters, however, come more practical concerns. These creatures alone outnumber you more than two to one. If, however, you do wish to commit the injustice of fighting them, you will have to come through us first. Armadyl never stood for unjust slaughter and neither will we. Now, you find before you even confront those you wrongly blame for the destruction of your homes and the death of your leader, you must come through a force that outnumbers you. Be reasonable and do not seek that which is both impractical and unjust. We will not attack you first, but if you seek to kill us to get to these beings, we will be forced to retaliate."

If that does not remove their resolve or morale, the Logrean troops prepare to defend the gorajo.

Congratulations, Churra! Your tongue is as swift and your mind is as sharp as a deathslingers axe!

Tell us - Have you seen creatures like these elsewhere? I fear the evil of Daemonheim spreads far and wide across this land.

The Gorajo seem worried about the state of affairs in the world; but they have nowhere to go, nor any leads to go on as of now. They ask if they can rest in one of your regions as a friendly force for a few months until they discover the next disturbance.

You can answer that in the turn post, as for now... Congratulations! You have gained Mcgrubor's Woods! You gain +100 wood and +100 metal as yields, as well as 5,000 Wood, 750 Runes, and 2,500 Hide.

Battle for Frozen Lake
- Auto Resolution -

[attr="class","bandos"]

Sigurd had an interesting idea as the battle drew to a close... What if there were some way to capture this giant Wallasaki, instead of killing it like every other beast?

He stepped back from the fighting (not before taking a blast of magic to the face) and tried to figure out if there was any way to do it. There are no ropes available, nor do do they have any fancy spells - and if they did, nothing for something as large as the beast. The best option could be to beat it senseless until it passes out, but then how are they going to cage it? Or would they? Hmmm...

He then remembers the horned-whale in the room. Sigurd looks over to the beast and calls out to it.

Hmmmmm?

Sigurd, despite his better judgment, asks the Narhwal if there were any way for it to capture the Wallasaki for the Rhynocs. Perhaps in a giant cage, or by making it less aggressive or something.

Sigurd waits for the response, knowing his troops will either kill or be killed soon enough. The Narhwal finishes gorging itself, then turns to Sigurd; who sees the dumbest, most simple face he has ever seen in his life. Sigurd sighs in disappointment at this and begins to turn back to his troops.

Arrrrrrroooooooo!

The Narwhal then flicks its horn up and begins to glow blue. Sigurd turns back to see magical chains flying from the tip of the horn at the giant Wallasaki. They surround and magically bind the beast as it begins thrashing about and yelling. Eventually the beast stops struggling and noticeably calms down; just sitting there expectantly looking at Sigurd.

Is it not something, stranger?

Sigurd notices a ghostly hunter standing next to him with a shock.

My friend is one powerful beast, isn't he? Being able to calm a monster like that with such a small meal... If only he could enact his bout of revenge, he would not be so pushy about asking for your help.

And before any words could be spoken the ghost disappears.

... WELL. CONGRATULATIONS! You have gained the Frozen Lake region! With it you have gained 30 Wallasaki's and the MegaWallasaki. Their information and recruitment method will be detailed in a few months time. You gain a cache of 5,000 Wood, 2,500 Stone, 2,000 Cloth, 1,000 Hide, 3,500 Gold, and +100 yields in both Wood and Cloth.

Battle for Thornwood
Round 5: Hope You Ordered a Side Dish

Both Spearman squads will move up 3 tiles (O9, P9). They are to engage the Experiments there. My Swordsmen will move to N10, then engage the Experiments in N9. Mages will move to N11, Crossbowmen to P11, and begin firing.

Archers in U13 will move to V8. As a group, all Archers will do as much damage to the penguin assassin as they can. The Riders in V12 will move to T5 and engage her as well.

Crown Infantry, use Sanctuary and engage the penguin in J13. Chicken allies: Move to M13. If you can reach the penguin, attack; if not, that is... unfortunate.

I will move the C.S.R up to N12. Cornflake, you can do as you please, but tell me how close we need to get it.

Uhhh... Yeah. N9 would be ideal, I guess. Yooo, I'm gonna head back to the tower to uh... Think up more inventions. Yeah.

The chicken high-tails it to the tower - pulling out a tinderbox while trying to light it.

Your troops head forward to begin taking out the rats, who have been otherwise docile since the battle began. Cockscomb then decides to throw a fireball into the pit in order to scare the rats, causing them to flood to the entrance. In their frightened state, they begin attacking your troops. That doesn't mean that they still weren't a pushover, and you bring them down to less then half.

In the meantime your two brigades go up against the assassins. Both of them shoot at the oncoming troops first, then again at the distance troops. Penglet takes 18% damage, where Pengtrushka takes 30%.

Well this is great! I'm out of shots, dammit!

I am out as well. Pengtinka! Cover us!

Understood.

Before your troops could react, the two assassins disappear in large smokescreens.

Due to time constraints, this battle will be FREEZEFRAMED for the turn post.

Your troops arrive in the entrance of Pollnivneach. The town is absolutely crammed pack with houses that appear to be in quite horrid condition. The houses seems to break into two paths leading South.

Oddly, there are some of the performers (from the Tumeken's day parade from a while back) performing in one of the streets, despite the lack of local presence. Many of them eye your troops, smiling and waving. Soon Alice steps forward with two groups of tough guys.

You're here.

She gestures to the performers

A lady came into town the other day and let us rent them for this battle, saying "they know what to do."

But anyway; There are two ways we can do this; we can team up to siege the Bazaar, which will be filled with Jamir's men, or you can let us distract Jamir and the camel cavalry and you can make your way to the High District, where Ali himself waits. This will be easier on you, but it's on the other side of town. Either will lead to success.

Your troops line up and wait to see who the oncoming army is. Expecting hundreds and hundreds of troops having to man such a ship, your soldiers are surprised to see only four people disembark.

One is a man with piercing blue eyes and holding a battleaxe; he appears to be the one in charge. Behind him are two ladies riding white horses that appear to have a pair of very small wings instead of tails, and a final man who looks powerful, but is obviously avoiding coming closer. Their leader approaches, but at a distance to not provoke your army.

Greetings, Outlanders. I am Heimdall of the Fremennik tribe. These behind me are Kara and Emjor, and behind them is Ivar the Wary. Tell me; who are you and what brings you to these lands?

Troops are to hold position while contact is made with the Fremenniks. The leader of the Logreans speaks to the Fremenniks:

Greetings, people of the north, I am Colonel Edward Fandrion of the Third Kingdom of Camelot.  Our people live in the lands southeast of here and have recently been seeking new lands to settle.  Our recent surveys of this region suggested it was unoccupied and unclaimed and thus perfect to form the new homes of some of our people.  However, if this land is not indeed unoccupied or should remain unoccupied, we will leave in our ships.

In addition, it is good to meet other people out in the wild, and ones not quick to attack.  Perhaps we could help you with what you are doing, or, if you must do it yourselves, at least provide company in the wild.  We would also be glad, once your task is done if you could visit the Pendragon's capital.  He would be glad to meet a friendly face from the world beyond our borders.

Whatever you decide about our presence here and our offers to you, we will abide by it as we wish no conflict or injustice to be done.
