| M2TW = Medieval 2 Total War = Very Realistic Medieval Simulation
ETW = Empire Total War = Very Realistic 18th Century Simulation | |

| Maybe if civ was real time and you could travel to another planet in it. I haven't played SC though... isnt SC2 2d though? Chess is good. | |

| Exactly what I was thinking... We need to stop talking about "Awesome Medieval Simulator Games". Because everyone knows you need futuristic walkers with super weapons and a guy called "Snake" in order for it to be the best.

| Futurist walker robots that say moo.
SC2 is 3D. SC is 2D.
And I like Civ V because you have time to plan your next move. Like in chess. | |

[bribe] Perhaps a err... a blue title may help... if you get my drift [/bribe] Also what that guy said on the last page. I rarely read and/or remember usernames when reading posts for some reason... | |

| Iga'Vi assault on Valiero'Vi Capital:
The Siege of ________
Belligerents:
----------------- Iga'Vi North Army
Corsair Mercenaries
Valiero'Vi Mercenaries -------------------- Valiero'Vi Imperial Militia
Valiero'Vi Imperial Army
Aari'Vi/Valiero'Vi Sailors --------------------
Location:
_______, Valiero'Vi Capital
Forces:
Iga'Vi Northern Army - 1800 Imperial Pikemen, 2000 Iga'Vi Levies, 1400 Misc. Levies, 900 Archers, 1000 Arquebus, 250 Mounted Lancers, 550 Skirmishers/Scouts, 43 Cannons, 4 Rocket Teams
Corsair Mercenaries - 450 Pikemen, 750 Marines, 200 Arquebus
Valiero'Vi Mercenaries - 500 Assorted Calvary
Valiero Imperial Militia - 750 Pikemen, 500 Calvary Archers, 2000 Valiero'Vi Levies, 500 Archers, 100 Arquebus, 600 Skirmishers/Scouts, 15 Cannons (Fixed)
Valiero'Vi Imperial Army - 900 Assorted Horse Archers/Lancers
Aari'Vi/Valiero'Vi Sailors - 400 Sailors, 300 Marines
Battle:
In 2230 the Northern Iga'Vi Army of 10,000 Xen'Vi led by general Zaqua'Ji massed upon the Valiero'Vi borderlands and was met by the Valiero'Vi Imperial Army. The battle resulted in mass casualties for the Valiero'Vi. The Iga'Vi then moved into the Valiero'Vi interior where they sacked numerous cities until reaching the Valiero'Vi capital of _______. The army also bolstered their depleted calvary force by hiring in captured Valiero'Vi. It would prove to be a mistake.
As the army marched within the final distance local militias and regrouped Valiero'Vi troops began to launch raids on the marching columns. In response to the attacks constant raiding parties moved out and began to assault the local villages which succeeded in drawing away the harassers. Around 50 of the Valiero'Vi mercenaries deserted during the raids. They brought detailing information on the state of the Iga'Vi army to the city. The skirmishes would continue for days as the Iga'Vi formed their bulwarks for the siege.
The Valiero'Vi forces similarly were preparing the cities' walls for the assault and closed off all civilian travel through the gates. What Xen'Vi they could they drafted for the militias and equipped. The river traffic was halted for fear of infiltrators and troops were kept on the walls at all times. What ships were in the cities' ports were stripped of their crews and soldiers. As the Iga'vi began their bombardment the Valiero'Vi did their best (if in vain) attempt to subdue the relentless fire with ballista shot.
The Iga'Vi artillery concentrated on the gates and walls, knocking out most battlements and bastions. They then struck the walls where they afforded the least resistance to the shelling. After 23 days the walls were crumbled at several points and constant firing would not afford the Valiero'Vi a chance to make repairs. Not at the least that the walls were partially cleared of defenders, for even threats did not send the militias to the murderous pounding. Unfortunately for the Iga'Vi their recruits of Valiero'Vi soldiers were down to 250 from the original 500, mostly lost to desertions, many of which brought detailed accounts of the Iga'Vi forces and movements. This included the date of the initial assault.
On that day the Iga'Vi forces gathered their crack troops and readied themselves in the dawn. At the same time 400 Valiero'Vi calvary gathered behind a sally port in the walls. The gate was hidden behind a thin brick sheet and so far was unknown to the Iga'Vi. At the moment the rays of light streaked over the Valiero'Vi walls 3000 Iga'Vi stormed forward wielding Iron Cats, grenades, flamethrowers and ladders. Taking only sporadic fire from the pinned down Valiero'Vi defenders they overran the militias defending the caved in walls only to find lines of soldiers blocking their rout into the city. Bottlenecked and taking heavy fire the Iga'Vi advance ground to a halt as soon as they entered the city. One levied Valiero'Vi merchant stated,
The roars of the Blayards (Degenerative term for Iga'Vi nationalites) rose greatly as they rushed over the bastions and slew the poor Xen'Vi upon the walls. The wails alerted us and so we brought our spears and pavises level and the clash of the impact of our titans and theirs rang out with such force that a great cry echoed from the city. The murderous thunder of the heathen's guns struck down many of us with no regard but soon with the spirits with us we shoved the Blayards backwards against the walls where we slew a great many of them to their horror yet to our triumphant.
At this point the Valiero'Vi calvary burst through the sally port and charged in a stream towards the Iga'Vi archers which had otherwise caused much injury to the poorly armored Valiero'Vi. Before they pushed through and broke from the Iga'Vi they were swarmed by a division of elite Svia'Vi border archers who held the calvary in place till the levies came up and forced the calvary to surrender. Unfortunately the rest of the battle quickly turned against the Iga'Vi and by the end of the day 2000-2750 Xen'Vi were killed many being elite Iga'Vi soldiers. Of the Valiero'Vi their main infantry forces were decimated though with renewed vigor from the victory. Of the three main breaches of the walls only one was still held by the Iga'Vi still at nightfall. Under steady forays by Valiero'Vi the Iga'Vi pulled out during the night. The first assault had been a disaster due to the leaked information by escaping Valiero'Vi. Upon this realization all remaining Valiero'Vi fighting for the Iga'Vi were immediately executed.
With over 2000 casualties and little to show for it the ga'Vi were put on hold while they regrouped. The Valiero'Vi took 2500 casualties and were met with the problem of defending the entire city which would stretch their forces so thin that defense would be near impracticable.
It would not be for over two weeks before a new attack would begin. | |

| New battle. Once again it's just a recording of the battle as opposed to the epic book style battle. | |

| A nice thing to accompany the book series would be some sort of history book, in the style of a real history book. Which would be full of these epic battles you have made, Lichen. | |

| Nice. I may not make it exactly like that, but it really helps to have a skeleton on which to build the battles.
And the city's called Valdin. I see you haven't been at the Writer's Guild lately. I added a new chapter where I introduced a new main character in Valdin. | |
