[OOC] WD's Against the Orcs

[Padreigh]

So, let's see.

Caltrops: Quick too make and they slow down orcs. But unfortunately they don't do any real damage.

Rolling logs: I like that. But we have to be careful not to waste that attack.

How about hot water? And by hot I mean boiling. I am pretty sure that every familiy has a cauldron or pot ...

We should also scavenge every drop of lamp oil we can find. "Molotov cocktails" are the poor man's fireball.

We could dig a small trench filled with oil and light it on fire when the orcs come threw.

 

[Padreigh]

Good idea as well ...
(although that plan went horribly wrong in another game I played ages ago)

Tell more, please. What system? Our SR DM? Just curious.

 

[Padreigh]

Yeah, sure. Like I'm gonna tell you how to turn our defences against us...

It was the CODA system and the "Foresters' Group" and I was gamemastering ...
And that is all you're gonna get.

I've been really busy this week. Sorry for not posting. I'll post something in the IC today.

 

[Walking Dad]

No problem. I'm a bit slow this week, too.

 

[Niehaus]

It would be easy to cover the ground with tar, pit or any other oily flammable substance then light it up when the orcs come threw. We wouldn't even need to worry about a pit with something like that because it's got enough consistency to stay where you spread it. I'm not sure if we'll have access to anything like that though.

 

[Padreigh]

Someone should question the survivors. Argivion is not the right Eladrin for that job, though.
I think the survivors don't want to hear someone telling them "Told you so, told you so" again and again.

 

[Niehaus]

I think we should set up a log trap at the top of the hill where the gap is and a flammable pit by the gate we entered from. But I'm not sure how the village or the defenses look like now that we've worked on them. I'm assuming the walls are more formidable now and don't need as much attention as far as traps go.
