Slezkh Castle - The First Wonder

[Tanken]

Well as a Conqueror and Holder of Slezkh Castle, I am proud to say we own it.

Had to raid like pussies with our army to take it though 


Nah just kidding, no hard feelings.

thanks for this perl of Strategus History.

The Lord who hold it at the beginning before it was lost to DRZ, was Imperial Ray Lin.
At that time Imperial has left the Cold Front Alliance already and it was not yet settled to what terms the ccastle would be handed over. Reinforcements came too late and were intercepted otherwise the castle wouldn't have needed to be defended with peasent gear.

Overall we have had sofar including the initial attack, 6 battles over the castle tonight is the 7th

When i get to it i will post overall losses.

[BASNAK]

Thanks Kinngrimm for clarifying some things
Can't wait to see the stats.

The last battle, congratulations, Wolves.

There had but been one break out of the castle into Apostates lands.
760 DRZ, 783 Apostates Bazhek was taken

----------------------

the initial attack on Slezkh Castle,
DRZ 319, CFA 1083, Peasent Battle
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1610

the reinforcements got intercepted
DRZ 1149,  CFA 1741
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1613

1st counter attack on Slezkh Castle
Due to the ladders on the main keep, some called them sky ladders.
We weren't able to protect the the weapons racks which constantly got shot down
failing in building forward spawn behind keep, at those locations we choose
Wolves 1505, DRZ, 695
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1681

2nd counter attack on Slezkh Castle
different locations for weapons racks, still they got constantly shot down, pretty much the complete right side of the castle
nothing can't be build close up because of the physics ignoring ladders on the main keep.
SoA 1622, DRZ 422
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1725

3rd counter attack on Slezkh Castle
building Siege Towers, but not working very well
catapults get shot down by ranged
Wolves 2100, DRZ 948
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1834

4th counter attack on Slezkh Castle
building Siege Towers, after this battle i pretty much consider them useless as castle with any kind of hill on which the castle stand
catapults get destroyed by ranged and outbreaking cav
front left sections of the walls seems invulnarable from  what we learned so far
Wolves 1595, DRZ 831
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1955

5th counter attack on Slezkh Castle
found a week spot in the walls close to the tower to the gate
Wolves 1481, DRZ 965
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=battledetail&id=1984

through getting rid of the remaining DRZ peeps, we got us 600000 DRZ dresses and a lot of stones ^^, thanks DRZ, this may lead to a fashion change up in the North 0_o. I wonder why they were all on one guy, was he going first to dress women then stone them? Mysterious very mysterious indeed.

Nothing mysterious, like Vovka said, 605k of dresses it's a DRZ gift for the winner .

Smile, kinngrimm, it's just a game, don't be so serious. Even if there's a smiley, your words say otherwise.

True, it eats at me that we lost so many tickets for so many reasons, if i would get into those i would even shout at people in reallife. To the "it is just a game" part, that is something we all should remember from time to time, right ;) ?

[Butan]

Wow, it lasted this long? I am impressed, and great storytelling too. I remember it had been recently captured and defended from a few large counteroffensives when i left strat at the start of December (following the drunken disaster of Gisim we dont talk about)... Amazed it lasted right into January, kudos to Druzhina.

An almost similar RP could be done about Uxkhal : sieged ~10 times but too much reinforcements (its at the edge of grey territory so it was easier to reinforce than Slezkh Castle who was completely alone) and it never fell.

[Bjarky]

Yeh Uxkhal will likely need 10 more or so, oh that xp
