*with a practiced ease born of several campaigns experience (litereally, Im basing myself on fluff I made for an Empire Hero I normally run!) Sergeant Dreadgrass draws his pistol, fires it into the nearest approaching Gor, "FORM UP LADS!!! LETS GIVE'EM A TASTE OF EMPIRE STEEL!!!" dropping his pistol, he draws his big hand-and-half sword left handed (yep he's a Leftie!), shrugs his buckler onto his right arm and moves to cover General Strewarts right side.
glancing at his spear, novatomato sees the absolute uselessness of fighting in a melee without his squad along side him. He hurls the spear at the nearest approaching beastman and picks up a sturdy log from the pile of fire wood.
Conwar fires at the nearest beastman with his pistol. "Give them blood and vinegar lads!" he shouts, "For the emperor! And for EternityWarden who died in his name!" Conwar charges at the beastmen, trying to cleave one in halve with his sword.
*spins his staff* time to be knokin' heads. *makes a gesture and the ground in front of hium turns into a fen. he swings his staff at the unlucky gor who got caught in the mud.* Thats One!!!
Novatomato, with his mighty treebranch and shield, runs behind Conwar albeit somewhat more cautiously. He attempts to crush a gors head with a downward swing.
As the gors charge in, Seargent Deadgrass shoots an oncoming one in the face with his pistol before moving off to fight another gore near general Strewart, forcing it back with his shield. Bryanabo charges forwards to cover his flank, stabbing an ungor with his spiked shield before lashing out with his axe, which barely misses another, and the two lock in axe to axe combat. Hellbreaker moves forward to strewarts side, and with his mighty warhammer, breaks the skull of a gor before spinning around and slamming another one in the gut with the handle and smashing his skull as he fell to the ground, turning to the others his battle cry could be heard "FOR SIGMAR!!!!" Suddenly a gor came at him from behind, roaring defiance and about to get in the killing blow. The only thing that saved Hellbreaker was Novatomato's spear, impaling the gor through the heart. Conwar manages to cleave another gor in half and blow ones head off with his own pistol. But yet another one moves to strike him as his sword is out of the way. Suddenly Novatomato appears, smashing the gor in the head and forcing him back, Conwar brings his sword to bear once more and drives it through the creatures heart. Celtic knocks a gor out, and then, grabbing its axe, decapitates it as it lay on the ground. The 11 remaining gors attack, the warriors barely managing to hold them off with their shields
bryanabbo being forced into a corner by gors screams for help "fellas i could use some help over here"
In an attempt to gain the upper hand, novatomato rushes the gor in front of him sheild first. Dropping the tree branch he picks up a fallen gors weapon on the way. At the end of his charge he lashes out wildly.
Dreadgrass stays by the General, defending his right flank amidst the chaos of the Beastman assault, a particularly large Gor bears down on him and he falls back, then he notices a pistol in the generals belt. "Your pardon Sir" the sergeant says and in 1 fluid motion, snatches the pistol from Strewarts belt as he leaps forward, shield first into his opponent, belting its weapon aside, whiping the pistol up under its hairy chin and pulls the trigger. OOC sorry if this is presuming too much Revered, just sort of came to me, so I thought Id throw it out there...
The Hunted crawls out of his tent, awakened by the sound of battle, his weapons are withing armn's reach. He gloams around the battlefield, seeing his company fending the gors of. Not wanting to stay still, The hunted grabs his bow, finds an arrow in the tent. I know assume a firing position and shoot a gor ready to strike one of my mates. After this, The Hunted strugles to stay awake. Vision rolling in his eyes, becoming ever more blurry. Wounds from last battle sting, fatigue sets in....I pass out. The Hunted
(Not too sure what this is about but it seems interesting. Look forward to reading this thread when I got some more time)
Forced into a corner, bryanabbo screams for help, two gors attacking, one's weapons battering against his shield as he was forced to block the others with his sword. Blocking a blow with the shield again, he dodged the other gors blades, spinning and decapitating its comrad in a spray of blood and gore. He turned around just in time to block another blow with his shield. The gor, smarter than most of the foul race, stombed down on bryanabbo's unproctected foot, then with an uppercut with its axe, create a deep wound on bryanabbo's right arm, and he dropped his sword, howling in pain. The gor kicked bryanabbo to the ground and then raised his axe for the killing blow..... Suddenly the gor was smashed aside by Novatomato's shield, the warrior lashed out in a frenzy, cutting bother of the gors arms off. As the gor dropped to its knees, he took his sword in both hands and thrust it through the vile creatures heart before going to the aid of his comrad. Smashing a gor in the face with his shield Dreadgrass pulls out a pistol and blows the things head off. (yes, presume less nextime ) Dumbledore blocks another blow before slamming the gor that was attacking him in the face with it, sending him sprawling back. Novatomato begins hauls bryannabo towards the encampment, having him lean against his shoulder. A gor breaks off from the fight to give chase, closing in for the kill. The gor was only a few feet away when it let out its howl, leaping at the two warriors from behind. Suddenly the gor fell limp, the hunted's arrow in it's eye.
carrying the wounded Bryanabbo to the tents, Novatomato gently sets him on the ground next to the semi conscious the hunted. Turning around he spots the remaining gors and rushes madly into them intent on distracting them from the wounded soldiers. As he approaches the wild beastmen he lets lose a savage roar and leaps into the closest, swinging his borrowed weapon in his fury.
Dreadgrass holds his ground, laying into the last of the Beasties whilst steadfastly protecting the strangely quiet general...
A gor lunges for the general, who seems to be simply watching the battle, deep in his own thoughts. Dreadgrass bravely blocks the blow with his shield, smashing the gor in the face with his pistol, and whilst the gor was doubled over, brought his shield arm up in an uppercut that sent the gor sprawling to the ground. Stomping on the gors arm so that it let go of its axe, Dreadgrass fired another pistol shot into the creatures head. (6 left) Setting the wounded soldier down on the ground, novatomato rushes to fight off the 3 gors that had decided to persue him, the hunted, not having a weapon, comes to his aid after taking a deceased gors axe..... As Novatomato's blade clashed with the first gor's, their weapons flashing and sparks flying as they blocked, struck, and parried each other, he noticed the two other gors rush past him. One threw himself at the hunted, who blocked the blow only to be tackled backwards by the huge gor. Kicking it back and lunging to his feet, The Hunted noticed the other gor too late.... It charged up the hill, letting our a horrible roar as it came upon Bryan, who was struggling to get away for his life...alas, the injury had bade him too slow...the gor caught up to him, driving an axe into the back of his leg so that the warrior was forced to kneel on the ground, the gor behind him. Keeping his empty hand on the struggling warriors shoulder, the gor drove his second axe deep into bryanabbo's head before kicking him down the hill, the body rolling to rest near his comrads. The gor letting out a horrible warcry from atop the hill. (Since bryan seems to have gone off and gotten himself banned-thank you deadgrass for the PM, I appreciate it, ill kill him now)
I draw my great sword and leap to join the battle, having finished strategizing in the command tent. I will avenge the death of bryan! (But congratulate the gor first) Everyone band together, cover each other! We can't let any more fall! Vote: Abstain. *cough* (OOC: Yeah I have been quiet here, too many words and been somewhat busy now that I'm on holidays)
