Wyrd love her Codexers and they are still alive. Unfortunately we didn't get any new guys so we are still sticking to the same team.

5.jpg


Our objective is to get this Rurik guy to "safety of Tallow" and when Myth says that something is safe it means it's going to get horribly raped soon.

6.jpg


"THRALLS!" Azira screamed even though he never saw a thrall before.

7.jpg


Oh god, nooo.

8.jpg


Codexers assumed defensive position and prepared themselves for upcoming onslaught. I don't even know if thing I just said makes any fucking sense in english but it sure sounds cool.

9.jpg


Mrowak told his men to stop wasting arrows on Thralls and start shooting Ghols.

10.jpg


11.jpg


BOOM! fuckers are pretty much dealt with.

12.jpg


And now we can send our warriors to clean up mess dorfs made.

13.jpg


"SOULLESS!" Eklektyk screamed even though he probably never saw them before.

1.jpg


Normally ghasts and Soulless wouldn't be so much of a problem but we have to watch out for Rurik (we don't control him).

2.jpg


Thanks to the fact that we survived two mission without casualties Mrowak's finest are doing great against soulless.

3.jpg


More Thralls, and they are behind us. Normally we could just keep retreating but yeah... Rurik.

4.jpg


Ok, enough fucking around, we have to use warriors.

5.jpg


1.jpg


We need to gain enough time for Rurik to stop being retarded and then shall retreat our warriors.

2.jpg


There is really no point in prolonged melee with Thralls. Berskerkers could do that, Heron Guard could all kinds of do that, but warriors? not really.

3.jpg


We managed to split this wave of Thralls in two.

4.jpg


And rurik seems to be safe, and that's my main concern here.

5.jpg


6.jpg


Holy shit, that was beautiful.

7.jpg


But now our warriors have to fight again.

8.jpg


Azira is badly wounded so I will try to get him out of there.

9.jpg


CASUALTY! Man who survived TFL events was unfrotunately first to die in Soulblighter.

10.jpg


And then we lost another generic-warrior and one archer.

11.jpg


... And then our dorf assploded another non-codexer warrior. Well, fuck.

12.jpg


But we survived and we can continue our Rocky Road to Tallow.

1.jpg


Everyone is badly wounded and soulless started to pop out from the woods after we made only few steps.

2.jpg


3.jpg


Warrior Gareth managed to deal with one that popped out close to us but Mrowak is on his own with this one on the left. Our warriors are too badly wounded to dance with soulless.

4.jpg


"THRALLS!" screamed everyone.

5.jpg


Oh god, no.

6.jpg


7.jpg


Oh god, yes.

8.jpg


But Gareth got hit by something and died. Or simply had heart-attack.

9.jpg


"SO FEW OF US, BY THE WYRD, SO FEW" screamed everyone while dorfs were busy assploding shit left and right.

10.jpg


11.jpg


Dorfs did what they could, now warriors have to finish those thralls.

12.jpg


They did it, and no one died! (Well, Gareth died but that was a heart-attack).

1.jpg


Well, that doesn't look like fucking trap at all!

2.jpg


Fall back!

3.jpg


4.jpg


Obvious river trap is obvious even without meta-game knowledge.

5.jpg


Way is clear and we can continue.

6.jpg


REFLEKSHUN!

7.jpg


Oh-o, this looks like job for Mrowak.

8.jpg


We have one healthy warrior so he shall help killing soulless. We can't send anynone else because one javelin could kill them.

9.jpg


Told ya, one warrior just got killed by stray javelin.

10.jpg


And now archer went down. Fortunately that wasn't Mrowak.

11.jpg


Mrowak managed to kill soulless while avoiding javelins and we can continue our merry way.

12.jpg


IS THIS TELOUW YET?! I HOPE NOET BECUSE IT DOESN'T LOOK SAFE, LIEK, AT ALL.

13.jpg


Nope, it's not Tallow and we have a tail.

14.jpg


DraQ, Eklektyk... I'm sorry, you have to be sacrificed. There is no other way (Rurik is too retarded to just run for the gate).

15.jpg


But we prepared some exploding peasants to cheer you up before you die!

16.jpg


AND DON'T TRY THIS "WHOS THERE?!" BULLSHIT! JUST OPEN THE GATES FOR WYRD SAKE!

17.jpg


Ignore the thralls, just open the gates!

18.jpg


Awww shieet, and there goes Codexers!

19.jpg


20.jpg


Those newfags have to clear the way for what is left of our group before more Ghols arrive.

21.jpg


Tindrli and Mrowak are still with us though.

22.jpg


23.jpg


24.jpg


That was actually pretty hard mission and our casualties were not done on purpose. I reloaded a lot but I just couldn't do any better than this. Well, at least we have room for new recruits :M

Into the Breach

Tuesday September 2, Near Brayle



1.jpg


2.jpg


3.jpg


I told you that Tallow is going to get raped...

4.jpg


Penetrate, ok... sneak your "invisible dwarf" into the castle?! is this game mocking me...

5.jpg


We have new warriors with us, undoubtly Legion's finest - Joka, Ovg, Imperator and Hoodoo.

6.jpg


And Sergiu64 the bowmen.

7.jpg


We didn't get any berserkers yet or any more dwarfs so rest of you still have to wait.

8.jpg


Baron's castle is near but it looks like we will have to fight to get there.

9.jpg


Few Ghols shouldn't be much of a problem though, unless they carry some assploding shit.

10.jpg


11.jpg


12.jpg


They are throwing shit at us but it's not exploding so I'll get over it.

13.jpg


Ghols run around us in some kind of Gholish Cantabrian circle but with the amount of warriors we have we don't have any weak spots.

14.jpg


15.jpg


I think we are done with first wave. Now we shall regroup and see if there are more of them.

1.jpg


There were three or four but we killed them easily and we may start looking for Baron's castle.

2.jpg


We reached village walls but village seems empty, suspicious.

3.jpg


I think we have found former villagers supported by some Baron's bowmen... RETREAT!

4.jpg


Ok, Joka, here's the deal. You have to go there, aggro some thralls so Mrowak and Sergiu can shoot them and then GTFO, allright? We count on you so don't fuck this up... Oh, and watch for Baron's bowmen.

5.jpg


SERPENTINE PATTERN JOKA! SERPENTINE PATTERN!

6.jpg


FLAMING ARROWS JOKA! GO LEFT! MY LEFT!

7.jpg


That's my boy! now... DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!

8.jpg


Joka, try to lure some thralls into the fire!

9.jpg


Oh, they don't seem to retreat this time. Joka, gtfo from there. Rest of you prepare!

10.jpg


Weather is good so our dorfs should have easy time here.

11.jpg


We just have to keep throwing flaming shit while we retreat.

12.jpg


Thralls are almost gone, now we have to prepare to kill Baron's bowmen.

13.jpg


Imperator on the left and some generic-warriors on the right are getting ready to flank the enemy.

14.jpg


Which means going through the fire but no one said it will be easy.

15.jpg


Our warriors reached enemy bowmen but we have small problem. Mrowak got hit with flaming arrow and he's almost dead.

16.jpg


Imperator and some non-codexian warriors are done with enemy archers. Mrowak survived even though he got badly burned.

17.jpg


Then we noticed Roxrowoski leading some reinforcements. Nice to see you guys, too bad you don't have any ice for Mrowak though.

1.jpg


Experienced archers are worth their weight in gold so we will keep mrowak in the back.

2.jpg


Now, that's a force!

3.jpg


It should be enough to take Baron's castle since most of undead are busy raping Tallow.

4.jpg


We reached the castle.

5.jpg


Hoodoo shall check if anynone's home before we continue...

6.jpg


Helooo! is anynone there?

7.jpg


Go avay or ve shall taunt you for the second time!

8.jpg


Yeah, that would be too easy if they just let us in. We have to re-open those gates with our pathfinder dorf.

1.jpg


Pathfinder is "invisible" like the one in "Market Garden" mission of TFL.

2.jpg


Enemy should be able to hear you but from my experience, you can just walk right next to them.

3.jpg


Just don't walk on them.

4.jpg


Ok, now Jari have to open castle gates for us.

5.jpg


Which will be very dangerous but dwarven pathfinders drank danger with the milk from their fathers tits...

6.jpg


... Or so they say. Ok, it's now or never!

7.jpg


8.jpg


The gates are going down but Jari will also go down unless he will do some Ninja shit.

9.jpg


10.jpg


SPLASH!

11.jpg


He did his job but he decided to help us further by killing archers on the left walls... and he don't have any means of escaping anyway so he might as well do that before he dies.

12.jpg


13.jpg


Holy shit, he survived.

14.jpg


But now we have to deal with some angry Baron's soldiers.

15.jpg


And for some reason game decided to change my formation. Whatever, at least codexers are in one place.

16.jpg


There is quite a lot of them so I decided to use flaming arrow ability of our bowmen (they didn't have it in TFL).

17.jpg


It won't do much damage but it will do some, and every bit of help is nice.

18.jpg


Baron's men got close enough for our dorfs and shit-chucking can begin.

19.jpg


Roxorowski is fresh recruit but I don't even know what experience do for dwarfs.

20.jpg


Range units did what they could and now it's our warriors turn.

21.jpg


Ok, we are free to enter the castle.

1.jpg


Unfortunately there are enemy archers on the wall to the right. Jari couldn't do anything about them so we have to prepare for casualties.

2.jpg


Poor Ulrich.

3.jpg


We have to somehow wiggle Mrowak around because one arrow will kill him.

4.jpg


That wasn't Mrowak though. It also wasn't Sergiu.

5.jpg


We are almost there, we have to quickly deal with some random brigands and get away from enemy bowmens range.

6.jpg


Another fucking archer gone.

7.jpg


Stop killing my archers goddamit!

8.jpg


Thralls are swarming throught the main gate. We have to retreat to where Jari is.

9.jpg


He shall cover our asses.

10.jpg


11.jpg


1.jpg


We still have to deal with guys guarding entrance to the Baron's quarters.

2.jpg


3.jpg


I decided to do it old-fashioned way, without unnecessary heroism.

4.jpg


Only Jari is throwing flaming shit because regular dorfs can't attack at this angle.

5.jpg


Alexander is in troubles but Jari is doing fine.

6.jpg


7.jpg


Mrowak! Sergiu64! you have to save our brave Alexander!

8.jpg


... But don't shoot him.

9.jpg


Almost there, man. Just a few more steps!

10.jpg


Awwwww.

11.jpg


Now we shall leave our wounded soldiers on the wall because, surely, nothing horrible will happen when we approach the gate...

12.jpg


13.jpg


14.jpg


THAT ISH A SHTYGIAN KNIGHT. CRAFTED FROM THE SHOULSH OF FALLEN SHOLDIERSH BY SHOULBLIGHTER HIMSHELF!

15.jpg


No one told those guys from Eblis Stone that you don't fucking fight Stygian knights with warriors and Journeyman?

16.jpg


You use dorfs!

17.jpg


NOOBS!

18.jpg


... Ok, now we can enter the baron's quarters.

19.jpg


20.jpg


Sometimes I can be such a dick for no reason.

Since you've had some archer casualties, I'll volunteer Cappen the Archer to join your force when convenient :)

i wonder, why i cant kill anything??

You mean in this LP? man, you have 21 kills which makes you third after Ivoldi and Mrowak who killed most shit in this campaign.

Great! I was afraid no one will want to be an archer and we need experienced archers (Making them Codexers makes me care about them more).
