[QUOTE="Simon Magalis, post: 267487, member: 2808"] Hey SHARK, first, WOW you do indeed come up with some cool stuff. Second... I would look at all of my forces, take those that gain no particular advantage from fighting in the fortress, and do the unexpected: ATTACK. This doesn't have to be an all out assault btw, it could be hundreds of undercover sorties, magically aided of course. You could use some Greater Rituals from Relics and Rituals if you have it. Also, imagine if there were enough evil druids (perhaps among the werewolves) so that when the invading army arrives, the very land and weather themselves attack. Another thing that seems likely is both several assassinations of higher-ups in the legions as well as possible counter strikes in the held lands behind them, perhaps drawing legions away from the main army and causing chaos. Hey, did I read that you are working on your PhD in English Lit? If so, COOL, I am hopefully beginning mine soon as well. Anyhow, good luck putting this awesome sounding battle together. I hope your players are grateful to have your volcano of a brain at the head of the table. [/QUOTE]
