-Do Not post past this point - Work on Combat phase underway-

The Plains
The battles in the plains were bloody and painful- our centipedes caused crippling moral damage to the enemy- an enemy who kept on shooting our boys in the crotch at the worst times, we gained ground, but all those creepy crawlies ended up dead after the first few engagements where we ended up fighting them face to face, so We generally ended up fleeing from those ball shooting bastards, specifically because the horses really started freakin' when they got hit by them.

The Pass
Let me be honest sir, It was a Slaughter here, their arrows rarely got past our armor, And our new friends really helped To reduce them to mush just that much faster.

The Beach
Things went fine, our bugs killed 'em dead- and although we'd rather not keep the buggers around they did help with keeping the men out of the action.

Spoiler: Arakia Designs, Magic, Ect (click to show/hide)

-Mundane Equipment-
-Weapons-
 "Razer" sword: A Long and very sharp- if somewhat delicate curved sword, some officers are known to remove their facial hair with theirs -Cheap
 "Headsman" Lance: Long wooden lances, Unwieldy off horseback, but nigh always lethal in a successful charge -Cheap
 "Tontaker" Bow: a Large heavy bow, few people possess the physical strength needed to bend one, let along the dexterity to fire it. -Expensive, Slow
-Armor-
 "Turtle" Plate: expensive Armor made from Iron with some leather sections, Protects against some attacks and comes with an unturning helm, *Only* covers the Head, chest, and Waist. -Expensive
-Other-
 "Hardtrack" Horses: Rather large and bulky horses capable of running with quite a bit of excess weight for quite a while, However they aren't too much faster than a running man. -Expensive
-Magic Equipment-
-Equipment, Resources, Ect-
 Containing circle: A Circular arrangement of magical runes that supposedly keeps weaker magical beings within it until they are explicitly let out. -Expensive
 Runed cage: A Box Made of wrought iron, the bars and surfaces of the cage are carved with runes of containment, similar to those in the Containing Circle. For safety reasons, three walls of the cage are solid with a few air holes, and the fourth is a barred door. -Expensive
-Spells-
 Oath of binding: A rather long recital of magical words that when completed binds magical creatures summoned by the user to their orders. -Easy
 Summon imp: A Fairly simple ritual involving the casters blood and several magical words -Easy
 Summon Fiendish Centipede: A Very easy ritual which involves the use of a very small amount of blood, an animal can be used to bulk summon multiples of the creatures. -Simple
-Minions-
 Imp: Imps are fairly short red humanoids with sharp claws and fangs, they are not very smart but many would be summoners have had their limbs torn off after underestimating ones strength.
 Fiendish Centipede: Skittering multi legged beasts the size of a large dog, they have Razor sharp mandibles and are fairly fast- but are distracted after each individual kill.
-General Knowledge-
Demonology(Apprentice) - Demons are the bloodthirsty inhabitants of the hells.  like most magical creatures, are immortal by many standards, simply reforming in their hell when they are slain.  Because of their half formed souls, demons are fairly simple to twist into forms which best fit the summoner's needs.

It is now the design Phase

[Rockeater]

We can make a "farm" were we summon ccretures and kill them immidiatly allowing us to use their parts, any support?

[Urist Mc Dwarf]

The Deathcage: A variant on the Runecage, this features dozens of spikes on the inside which will transfix and slay anything summoned into them.


That can probably be a revision.

For our design: Blood Imps: These are similar to imps in many ways, but their blood is extremely poisonous and very flammable, making it useful in a variety of ways.

[Failbird105]

Bringing this back, because I feel like we need some kind of proper weapon for our soldiers.

A demonic weapon, preferably formed from an imp. The Bloody edge is an organic, single edged shortsword, its blade lined with literally razor-sharp teeth, providing a serrated edge, and it has an eye on each side of the blade directly above the crossguard. The blade itself lusts for blood, and when swung will use what demonic power it has to guide its path towards vulnerable locations on its victims body. In addition, upon landing a blow, the teeth will shift around within the wound, exacerbating the injury and making even scrapes into small gashes. Be warned however, this weapon is indiscriminate, it will not hesitate to try and bite into your own flesh if you handle its blade carelessly. Do not let yourself be known as the fool who lost a hand rubbing over a swords edge.

I feel it  would be easier if we got a harvesting system so we should wait

[Doubloon-Seven]

I figured that we could just summon hellish meatslimes in case we wanted easy access demon bits, instead of having to use a summon action, a new design/revision, and the loss of a possible combat unit.

How would it be easier to make a living weapon out of dead demon bits, when we can, seemingly, summon a demon into shape.

Frankly I am wholly against the idea of butchering demons, because even ignoring the very real possibility that the demons begin to turn against us, we also have no idea if demon bits even stick around after the summon dies.

Edit:

I figured that we could just summon hellish meatslimes in case we wanted easy access demon bits, instead of having to use a summon action, a new design/revision, and the loss of a possible combat unit.

This however, is a significantly more reasonable option for achieving the same reward with significantly lower risk.

[Rockeater]

For some reason I thought your sowrd was made of dead creature, my mistake

[Failbird105]

Eh, I suppose I wasn't completely clear on that, I just thought it was kinda implied that the weapon was alive when I said it lusted for blood, actively guided its users swings, moved its edge around in wounds, and was indiscriminate in who it targeted.

[Rockeater]

Naw, it was pretty clear but I thought on something else in the time
Crazyabe: What idea to get demon's part of the ones suggested is possible?

[crazyabe]

Ok, I'll make an IC ruling, "The Vast majority of a dead demon (Not including fluids- "Blood", Spit, Venom, Ect) Turns into a Smoke that quickly vanishes when they reach a state where in they can be called 'dead'" Make of that what you will.

[Rockeater]

Ok, so the farms are out, we could attempt to summon demons and trade with them their freedom in exchange for artefacts or resources, it's not like they will love us less than if we send them to war
