Ok. I was just putting down the first number that came to mind. I wasn’t sure of a good number.

[Sir Elventide]

Right, Elventide I love the action (cue evil GM laugh), but only worshippers count towards the worship bonus. It’s been awhile so don’t worry about it, just when you get the chance you should change it to not receive a worship bonus, or to recruiting worshippers.

Got it!

[Sudurandom]

Ok here's what I have so far for my reply to C2s questions.

1. I'm out of soul gems. So rebuilding my stockpile has to be my main focus. But I'll do what I can to guide and support our forces. Of course I'll also keep an eye open for when a change in weather would be to our advantage. When possible I prefer ambush and deception to strait up confrontation. We want to fight on our terms not theirs. But I will spend lives when needed to hold vital ground.

2.

3. Yes but it would have to make a major difference. It sounds selfish to say it but we Sindari are the only ones who can stop the Cisharni, and we cannot sell our lives cheaply.

I'm not sure what to do about dragon's tooth. It's a choke point so we want to hold it if we can, but it sounds like it's still close to the front lines so we won't have much time to weaken the Cisharni before they come to smash it. And I doubt we'll be able to retreat very well from a loosing fight there.

Any advice about that or anything else?

We hold Dragon's Tooth. 6000 men in it, the rest deployed to harass the enemy day and night (we have more than enough men to raid in shifts while also guarding the camps round the clock).

We have a full 100,000 men, apparently. Might as well make use of that fact. Dragon's Tooth might be capable of breaking the enemy army, if we're careful. We can afford to lose 6000 or 120000 defending that fortress, so long as the enemy loses worse. They're in hostile territory, and despite their evidently excellent logistics we can levy more men and bring in more supplies than they possibly could.

I'll make sure they start sprouting invisible arrows from places you don't want invisible arrows.

[chubby2man]

Since you successfully defended the fortress from the first assault, all 3 nexus sites that are potential targets of the Pharaoh are in allied hands. If the fortress falls, the invading army will be able to capture only 1 nexus by the time the Pharaoh makes his move. It will be easier for the Pharaoh to access it, but on the other hand you will know where he will make his attempt.

Just to give you an idea of how this first year may affect the next.

[Glass]

...

Is there any other way to cause the Pharaoh to favor one shrine over the other two?

[Smoke Mirrors]

Once I'm in China, will I be able to track him fully?

EDIT: So, should we tell our guys "If you see a Cisharni, don't engage. If you see us runnng from something, don't engage. If you see a guy in a white mask and a black cloak, or some shadowy wolves, or a cloud of smoke, do not engage. Not because it's to powerful, but because that's our guy."

[chubby2man]

Glass: Maybe!

SM: Most likely!

Could Artemis of Apollo sense my invisibility spell?

That sounds like a good plan. And if we were facing an enemy with similar capabilities to us I'd say to throw everything we had into defending the Tooth. But we don't have anything to counter the Spartans, and I'm sure their magic users out class us as well. so I doubt we can hold it. We just need to make them pay the highest price for it that we can.

Even with 100,000 troops it wouldn't surprise me if we were out numbered. And we know their regular are better then ours. remember there were 40,000 Spartans and we only killed two companies.

...and despite their evidently excellent logistics...

...which we should be taking every opportunity to disrupt...

We definitely want to do that. An army marches on it's stomach after all.

I have a pack of wolves, I think I can screw with their food. I'll leave the puppies in Adjilia and take the full grown ones with me.

Year 110-111


The forces of Atlantis mustered in China. Massive reserves of food, horses, weapons and ammo were brought, and then intensely guarded. Apollo would soon lead an assault against the fortress of Dragon’s Tooth, backed by Atlantean army regulars. Generals with centuries of experience lead armies into the countryside burning villages and sacking cities.

But the forces of Atlantis were not unopposed.

So I figure one way to do this is to ask some questions to see how this war shapes out. If you are doing something else that’s also fine

Japanese forces: 20,000
Chinese: 80,000
1. What is your general strategy? Do you work alone or lead? Do you fight for every inch of ground, or do you prefer ambushes?
2. Do you try to save Dragon’s Tooth? Or are you willing to give it up to preserve your forces?
3. Are you willing to die in this fight? You are immortal, after all, and there are many battles ahead that will need you. This determines how long you will stay in a battle before withdrawing

If I help in this, I will be less effective, or I can be at full power when the Pharaohs plan happens

What do ya'll think?

Rest, Cody. Your stats stats are all at 2 right now, and you’re already heavily damaged; going in right now could potentially get you legitimately killed.
