Assault on Darkshire - Discussion

[Illidan Stormrage]

Also all, make sure your rosters are up to date and have the basics in there. Revan, could you include a physical description in yours?

[Revan Noctis]

Done.

[Hiro Protagonist]

I believe i did post my fight preferencw against gamzee, just on my alt account.

Haha, my bad Demetri! I didn't realize Dave was your alt, and assumed you were just being Cheeky! Awful of me, I know.


I have no problem with the current proposal, so let me mark down the brackets with new info:

Current matches:
Skeletor Vs. Ash Williams and Kelly Macaryn (All parties confirmed)
Dave Strider and Sarah Kerrigan Vs. Strazio Rockwell, Gamzee Makara, and Hiro Protagonist (Awaiting Hiro and Dave's opinion, but probably good to go)
Illidan Stormrage vs. Okor Paleblood and Revan Noctis (Seems to be confirmed)

"Roaming" primes:
Shang Tsung


Once we hear from Dave and Hiro, we can probably launch this up, so... Saturday a good time to launch this shenaniganery?

Yes, yes, let's do it. I have no problem with this let's just get it started

[Gamzee Makara]

Gamzee Makara, here for moral and murder support. Someone just point me in a direction and I'll get to homiciding.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

[Deadpool]

I'd also like to possibly roam.

I like the idea of doing a real battle, with hundreds of secondaries bearing arms and fighting

[Dave Strider]

Im all for it, ill try to get my post done tonight for dave to arrive!

[Sarah Kerrigan]

today's the big day! : D
So, As far as matches, just to reiterate:

Skeletor vs. Kelly Macaryn and Ash Williams,

Dave Strider and Sarah Kerrigan Vs. Gamzee Makara, Hiro Protagonist, and Strazio Rockwell

Illidan Stormrage Vs. Okor Paleblood and Revan Noctis

Roaming primes that will do whatever: Shang Tsung (Defenders side) and Deadpool (Whichever side he feels like at the time)
If Illidan or someone would prefer to make an intro post to the whole shebang, with the assault starting, that'd be a good way to start.



As far as battlefield areas, what are we thinking?

my current thoughts are:
Skeletor's battle would be either underground or within the city, once the Doom Drill pushes through.
The 2-on-3 would be within the battlefield, near the smashed gatehouse and wall sections Sarah's going to create
Illidan's fight would be either right in the thick of the frontlines, or somewhere near the back, protecting Cornelius.


If someone'd like to further flesh out these battlefields with a couple paragraphs, or just, would like me to, feel free to say so. 
Additionally, if one person from Each match-up could take the duty of writing up the first intro post, that would be great. Personally, I'd prefer doing the first intro post in Kerrigan and Dave's match-up, but that's up to you guys.

[Okor]

Sounds perfect to me. I'd quite like to be on the frontlines and brawl with Illidan, just for cinematic appeal. Since Illidan's leading the assault, does he want to bust out the intro post?

[Revan Noctis]

I would prefer Illidan did a beginning intro post for the assault.

Do we switch to the other thread now or do the assaulters come to our thread?

It may be best if you do the whole battlefield writing thing though hoping it wont be too in your teams favour though it is up to Okor.

Okor would you like me or Illidan to go first for our battle or would you prefer yourself?

FIRST BLOOD WILL BE MINE.

[Kelly MacAryn]

For Skeletor vs Ash and myself, I think underground, considering both defenders are outside the city walls. It's manageable - a partial tunnel collapse would give us access (this is a machine Skeletor built, after all).

[Skeletor]

I was thinking that maybe Some of Kerrigan's explosive Zergs could be detonated from inside the tunnel and make a gap in the wall Helm's Deep style. That would be plenty of impetus for some of the primes to check out the scene. I'm going to quickly try and dash out a post before the actual fight starts, but don't wait up on other people's plans for that.

So long as Skeletor's game, Yeah, Kerrigan'd be able to throw a couple IT's in there.

The general plan for Kerrigan's post is for IT's to suddenly start exploding hidden within refugee supplies, suddenly killing off a lot of people inside the walls, a bunch of refugees outside the walls, and also taking out a good chunk of a gatehouse for her "Personal entrance".
I imagine some primes would observe that and Kerrigan's shit-eating grin with interest... and probably wrath

[Illidan Stormrage]

Cool. I'll get a post started. I'll make a new thread so that the prep and actual assault are separate.

[Strazio Rockwell]

I'm fine with Kerri posting first yo.

[Illidan Stormrage]

The march has begun.

I meant to add a little more about Illidan's forces reaching Darkshire but I'm a little distracted. Whoever posts next, feel free to have the army arrive.

[Skeletor]

is that thread going to lead into the fights? or is that Illidan's fight in particular?

[Illidan Stormrage]

I was thinking it would be everyone's thread to use.

[Kelly MacAryn]

I'm going to do a battle-commences Kelly-post as well, if there's time. But as far as the Skeletor/dual defenders trifeca goes - I'm assuming for the actual set-up that the archfiend is doing the honors?

[Skeletor]

I should be able to get a post out either tonight or tomorrow. Trying to finish the work I have due Tuesday, fear not!
