Title: The sWalker arrives at Yruma Castle
Post by: sWalker on August 30, 2011, 01:57:01 am
Upon hearing of the epic battle that was to take place, the sWalker traveled far and fast from the "land of healing" to make it to Yruma Castle in time.  The sWalker sees lots of great warriors, both standing by his side, and within the walls of the formidable castle.  (*What will come of our hero tonight...?  Will his bow be true, or will he have to slip away defeated under the cover of night*)  The sWalker is honored to fight against IKcharlie and Norrin...and promises to honor them with glorious funeral pyres if they should fall tonight.  They will fight bravely with honor...the sWalker knows that much...

Just tell her the swalker has called you to battle against the evil crusaders, killer of women and children because of their faith, and she will understand your noble need.

I told her I wanted to join the battle and fight at 1:43 am and she told me I was an idiot.. I completely agreed. Which confused her enough for me to sneak away and pretend she did not care.

 I used my lando powers... Smooth

Attackers-11508     Defenders-12316
                      Post Battle
Attackers-41           Defenders-0

In the most epic battle the rebellion has seen to this date, the sWalker and his companions defeated the powerful empire at Yruma Castle.  sWalker's father, Goretooth had the most kills defending the castle, and the mighty kesh was the champion of the rebellion on this day.  The sWalker, after cleaning up thousands of bodies, finally was able to retire to his new tavern in the castle.  The sWalker drinks tonight with a heavy heart...many of the sWalker's comrades fell and many friends also died defending the evil empire to the bitter end.  As promised, the funeral pyres were built higher for the brave, fallen enemies than they have ever been built...maybe some of the empire escaped, to rebuild and strike at a later date...*but that is another of our hero sWalker's story for a later day*...

AMAZING BATTLE! MVP definitely goes to the Attacker's Healing Tent. That thing saved more lives than Goretooth or Kesh took away. I think Snickers had 10 projectiles in him at one point? I tried to take screenshots of all of our pincushions, but I realized I didn't have fraps open after the fight. Oh well.

Props also go to Warcat and the Fallen Siege Weapon Team. Great job throughout the battle. I was very impressed. Loved it! Especially that one 3 kill hit.

5:5 KD can be deceiving, I enjoyed tearing that place to pieces. Good battle by everyone. If anyone has any good shots of inside the castle I'd love to see them, I didn't really get close enough to see all the damage I did.

nice work defenders. If I was going to miss three hours of sleep on a work night I am glad it was epic. Of course no way i was able to sleep properly after that so I lost way more than three hours. But at least for a short duration while I pretend not to be tired it was worth it

Well, when I hit you, no one else was around the pult, but by that time I was having to deal with the catapult firing at odd , super high arcs and going slightly right... so, I blame chadz. If he hadn't made strategus you wouldn't have been tk'd.

Yeah I was racing you for a while Papi with kills (and the godking) Kesh with his faster fire rate beat me for total (the jerk) Was fun fighting next to you guys, while dodging the rampaging goretooth charges. I would have died a ton more but I made frequent trips to the healing tent... sometimes before I would even get all the way in range to attack i would get hit and have to turn around and go back. The only reason my K/D was as good as it finished.

That map was great for a healing tent, it was quite safe in that little valley behind the spawn.

Man, If my 65 men had been in the area of Yruma, I would of totally attacked after the battle  with my HATCHET WIELDING DEATH FORCE OF CHINESE GUAM WARRIORS. 

and just to say, in real life, surviving with 41 soldiers is a costly, morale losing victory, lol

no, scaling was 9 to 1, so everytime one of us respawned, we lost 9 tickets, i was the only one who died from it, in the middle of two people

Well sorry then, it would've been a bit easier for me so aim if they had been working with normal shooting like at the beginning, but for whatever reason my catapult was shooting about 500 feet in the air and slightly to the right.

I remember when Garem started shooting it. He fired it, and it went straight up in the air. If I hadn't told him to move he would have ended up dying.

He also came close to wiping out the entire group of infantry right next to the catapult too.

Yeah, I used one catapult that went straight up and then destroyed itself as well. Certainly were some issues with them, but at least they got the job done.

Span you had a nice kill on me.. pretty sure it was you. Spawned on top of one of the lowered walls and jumped off with a pike or long spear and hit me in the face on your way down. insta kill

Dude i remember that leaping stab with the long spear it was the best kill i got except for maybe crushing matey behind his shield. And your right Bob only if they let me get close and I cant charge into that torrent of arrows it was impressive in an annoying way the persistence of those archers haha It was good battle I just wanted more wall to wall combat then maybe a field battle but arrows prevent us melee people from doing that. I look forward to future battles!

I was just happy I killed Matey once.  It pissed me off how shitty of a design the castle is a lot of our sentries kept falling off the walls because of a poorly designed castle. 

Hospitallers have been pushed from our homeland, but we will find a place to stay and find a purpose to serve.
