[QUOTE="kirinke, post: 3082057, member: 15409"] ooc: The main gist of the plan was to use the gem as a kind of lure, one that could draw the twice damned or their more powerful servants to an ambush of the group's choosing. If we can, we'll kill whatever ones are there and maybe letting the lesser 'servants' carry the gem off to present to Cronos or whoever as a trophy. Then boom. IC: "Superior numbers do not always win wars my lord." she looked grim as she thought, tapping her forarm with the fingers of her other hand and her holy symbol inscribed ring glittered in the room's light. "As we do not outnumber the enemy, needs be we must use what forces we have to bear against them as cleverly as possible. Strike out at the supply lines, make sure that all the food and supplies the enemy gets is inedible or ruined. A half-starved army is half-beat. Use your druids to send the local animals against the armies, keep them up at night with the animals themselves, howling wolves and dogs, snarling cats. Bats in the sentries faces and suchlike." she said. "We have weather workers as well, I suspect. Turn the land and the air against the invaders with the help of the druids and clerics in your army." "Use your archers to send volleys of blessed and magicked arrows at the undead and the demons. Send in teams of clerics and magic users to strike out at the ranks, but randomly. Use teleports often." she smiled grimly. "Fighting such large numbers in a traditional way will only get more of your men killed. Ambush and guerrila tactics are best in such circumstances. [/QUOTE]
