[QUOTE="Andrew Moreton, post: 7870691, member: 6920268"] Again the Absurdist Web has become the basis of their logistic and movement strategies. With the return of Williams player there was a brief revision of the ethics of Soul transfer and agreeing to free a Lich. They discussed with Harkover Lee via teleport and thought the Lich may have been weakened , they did consider that there was an expert who may know how powerful the Lich was and may be another source for the Soul Transfer spell. But they were even more afraid of Ahima-Shintu than the Lich and were worried to discover that everyone who had met her could use a sending scroll to contact her even through the wards. Killing the Frost Giants was then planned, they decided to set up a secure base camp by using the Abusrdist Web to bring in 3 Squads of Risuri Riflemen and a pair of Field guns which were set up to cover the entrance to the Canyon, Manuel and Padme then sneaked in to try and blow up the Cave holding the reserve Giants with a demo charge but the totems and death bears detected them. The players were very worried by the demonic death bears suspecting they were more dangerous than the Frost giants. Manuel and Padme ran away staying in front of the chasing Frost Giants who re-enacted Rorkes Drift or maybe the Charge of the Light Brigade charging into massed riflemen plus cannon support b Willian channelling the first King of Risur as a Marshall and giving everyone +3 to hit and +5 damage which translated to of the 12 Frost Giants and 2 bears involved in the attack only 3 injured Giants made it out of the Valley of Death , Nevla blinded several of them but the rest could just not stand up to covering that much open ground in the face of havy firepower including Tinkers advanced explosive shells. With the Frost Giants forced back on the defensive the Constables moved the firing line closer to block off any movement down the ravine and moved in to assault, as they moved along the rift floor they saw the lantern light and Nevla gor suspicous and cast Detect planar energy , immediatly they realised that the lanterns were a trap and started shooting them out except for a few they could grab with TK and shove into the absurdist web for later study. The waterfall pool the crossed easily as Ulvaar;s Life bubbles protected them from cold and water allowing them to walk through the pool. On the other side of the pool they faced a mass charge by Frost fiants and William channelled the king to encourage Manuel to frankly terrifying activity he got off 2 blasts of cannister from his cannon in the first round dropping 3of the 4 front rank Ice giants then manged a Nock Gun blast leaving the Frost Giant boss badly injured as he reached mellee and hit Manuel, then before he could act again a Holy smite blinded 3 of the 4 follow up Giants and multiple rocket propelled grenade salvo from Manuel injured almost all the remaining giants , Ulvaar and Padme killed the one Giant who could see what was going on and the boss in a series of viscous strikes encouraged by Williams cheerleading, at the end of the 2nd round with 8 more frost giants including their chief dead for no real signs of harm to the constables the rest of the Frost Giants surrendered if given safe passage out of the rift.
