Roll to Trench
« on: August 04, 2016, 01:31:49 pm »

I've never run an RTD before, so I figured one of these random ones would be good for a first one.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An army overlooks a small township in medieval Europe. You are a member of said town. The 43 man militia is not quite enough to stem the tide of the oncoming army by itself, not even with its new bolt action rifles, Lewis guns, or solitary mortar tube. And they are requiring every town member to join.

How are YOU going to defend the town against the incoming foe?

We will put all the old grandmas in the town on the wall. Getting cussed out and told off by old grandmas is sure to break their morale!

Turn 1
Town: 603
Enemies: 4196

Wizardry.

[1] You try to use some long lost and ancient Wizardry. Whilst performing the incantation of your first spell, someone gives you a bump on the shoulder and you lose concentration. The spell backfires and sends you through a one person wide portal into Hell. It closes shortly thereafter. RESPAWN?
-1 town

Many many bullets.

[4] You set up a valiant defense using the few machine guns and riflemen the twin could spare and you hold off an enemy advance.
-130 enemies

We will put all the old grandmas in the town on the wall. Getting cussed out and told off by old grandmas is sure to break their morale!

[6] You tell all the Grandmas to stand at the top of the wall and yell obscenities at the incoming army. It works stupendously. The enemies draw back and some flee. However, this use of old ladies as a defense has really put a downer in everybody's mood.
-40 enemies
-10 town

Launch flaming cows at them with catapults

[2] You attempt to launch flaming cows at then in a makeshift catapult. It catches fire and burns to the groind, leaving you with some dead burning cows and a pile of ashes.
-0 Both

Lay mines everywhere around the town.

[1] You set your first three mines, then on your Fourth, a bullet hits the mine, blowing it up in your face, and launching you back through your other mines, detonating them as you go. RESPAWN?
-1 town

Dig a trench!

[5] All by yourself, you dig a trenchline fit for a king and his army of 600 ish people.

Cry! Over the Enemy's dead bodies, of course.

[3] You try to stand and cry over the body of an enemy just a little but younger than you, but the hail if enemy bullets is too much to allow for much movement outside of your newly dug trench.

I sic demons on them.

[4] You call upon the demons of Selzar to do your bidding. They attack the enemies in their positions, ravaging them and scaring away quite a few. The demons return to their realm once they feel satisfied with the chaos ensuing from them.
-36 enemies.

I Summon All Hell to break loose on them.

[4] You invite all of Hell to rain upon your enemies and it does. A few dozen fireballs rain down upon your enemies.
-57 enemies

Retroactively erase the person who founded the country we are at war with.

[6] You work your way through the history books and find the founder of the opposing country and you build a whole time machine to go back there and erase them from existence. You then realize that the founder of that nation is also the founder of your nation as well. You realize that you now cease to exist and a paradox forms removing you from any universe where these events transpire. RESPAWN?
-1 town



Town remaining: 590
Enemies remaining: 3933

Organize the militia into squads, and assign them weapons based on their fighting styles. Lead the men into a successful defense.

Loot a heap of valuables whilst everyone's distracted, load 'em all in a stolen cart and flee.

...To go petition nearby Lord What's-his-Name for aid, of course!
