[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 137166, member: 2020"] [b]The Eastern Front[/b] The captain of Iuz's forces lifts his sword, then swings it down with great force, and yells: FIRE! A hundred catapults loaded to the brim with Red Goo launch their contents. The Red Goo scatters as it flies through the air, coming down in a rain over a vast section of the attacking force of Creamsteak and Sollir. The attack shatters and falls apart as hundreds of men cry out, and topple, tumbling end over end on the earth, then sizzling, slumping down into Red Goo. The very trees glow as the rain strikes them, and then they too slump and melt. In an instant, a new lake of Red Goo is formed. Gem Dragons roar over that lake, sending ripples across it, then power dive against the attackers, sending their breath weapons into the elves, into the warlords, scouring great paths of death through their ranks, incinerating them, melting them, turning them to frozen statues. Massed spells are hurled back at the dragons, but few are hurt, and only one killed, as the draconic spell resistance makes it's presence felt. But the forces of the League of Warlords and the Delrunian Alliance are not immune to Dragonfear, which seizes hold of many of them. Soon, vast numbers of them are in retreat, while the braver ones try to hold the shattered offensive line. Now, the demons and mages of the forces of Iuz come against them in force. Demons roar in delight as they rip men and women limb from limb, tearing bodies apart, throwing the pieces into the Red Goo lake, stomping other pieces into the ground, shrugging off spell and weapon attacks. Mages fire lethal necromantic magics, blasting the life out of scores of opponents at once, rotting and withering them where they stand, draining their life force out of them while they scream for help that does not come. The combined hosts of the League of Warlords and the Delrunian Alliance are driven back with huge losses into Fellreev Forest, which proves to be no protection. Red Goo and dragon breath melts the trees, while demons toss trees aside like pebbles. The onslaught of the League of Warlords has turned into a rout. Those who charged, are now fleeing. Those who cried victory, are weeping in fear. Still the forces of Iuz come on, driving in from the north, south, and west, driving the defenders further back, burning the already ravaged Fellreev away. All morale and discipline collapses; panic sets in, the whole of the army turns to flee eastward, towards the safety of Riftcrag. Unless ... Unless they choose to use the enemy's own tactic against him, and throw Red Goo back. That seems to be the only way of stopping the onslaught of Iuz. [/QUOTE]
