The Jade Fist Campaign - 10-16 December.

Ok, I'm not going to blow it out of proportion and have this descend into a back and forth thread, but I think all that sea life of yours has loosened a few screws!

Nevermind, back to war.

War isn't fair.

This is a game, not real war. This game is played to be enjoyed, naturally with a pinch of realism but in the end combat, an RP-PvP themed campaign is there to give flavor to the role-play, not to be the staging ground for mindless ganking.

It is a PvP server indeed, but I believe at this point most people on this here forum and most who role-play can agree that they are predominantly on Defias Brotherhood to role-play, with everything else coming second to compliment role-play not to take precedence over it.

Anyway, all I can say is I am not surprised, so lol, rofl etc

Kill some orcs, that's what i do. For the barricade!

I think we should leave this topic for now, if people would be so kind.
If there is anything else, send me a PM.

On better news, the Alliance is likely to start a mining operation somewhere today. The morale is good and the low-rank troops are convinced of winning the War... oh how wrong they are.

The Cult of the Shadow have been sighted on Pandaria, Horde Arcane Conclave is developing nefarious plans of arcane nature and a certain marauding warband is (maybe?) returning on the field of battle.

Let's get bloody!

I'd be happy to see that happen over and over till one of us get's bored.

On topic tho yep, time start gathering resources, why you may ask?

1. Stone is a building material, stone everywhere! +1 Barricade out of stone ; rock catapult that trows rocks on the pesky forsaken.
2. Jade, it has many uses possibly jade arrows to rain upon the horde? Swords and weapons, then for trading companies and so on.

rock catapult that trows rocks on the pesky forsaken.

We don't need some primitive catapults, Bismack and Odgan came up with a briliant plan, which involves strapping a cannon to Bismack his back, turning him in the first living Worgen Siege Engine.

Main post and progression updated!

I still like how the icon representing neutral pandaren looks just like Suon's face.

So tonight, battle for the barricade!

we'll need all hands on deck.

Drums beat, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall have no whores, allow no retreat, permit no harm to come to the barricade. I shall desire no promotions and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the jungle. I am the watcher at the barricade. I am the shield that guards the Vale. I pledge my life and honor to the Bronze's Barricade, for this battle and all the battles to come.

-Oath of the Watchers on the Barricade, the Sword in the Jungle : men and women of the BARRICADE!

The orcs were proving elusive. While many of Drustai's comrades had managed to meet them in battle already, her own encounters had been limited to a single battle at the Terrace of Ten Thunders, which had resulted in a beaten Alliance and mogu relics--her relics--firmly in the hands of the Horde. No doubt they were already being parsed through by the Reliquary, whom were eager to unlock the very secrets Drustai was searching for: how to master the sha. The mogu knew, their korune sect had unlocked the secret. It was only a matter of time before that knowledge was unlocked, and Drustai would not allow the Horde to discover it first. The sha were hers to command.

She turned to look back at Pearlfin Village, across the lake of the same name. Most of the Alliance soldiers were still asleep, save the evening guards. A handful of jinyu sat at the shore, preparing their rods and nets in the hopes of an early morning catch. No one that would disturb her. She turned to look back around, into the hollow, icy eyes of her frostwyrm. The creature idly flapped its wings, out of some remnant instinct still lingering in its bound soul. Though what Drustai was doing was legal, no doubt the other soldiers would not welcome such a weapon. Fools, the lot of them. So bound up in their morals. Just like the draenei were a century ago, in a war that nearly resulted in their extinction. She would not let that happen, not again.

Drustai walked around the decrepit beast, trailing her hands across its bones and the remaining muscles and sinew. The bones cracked and shifted at her touch, as if the creature were trembling in the sight of its master. Multiple magical symbols were inscribed upon the outer edges of the bones, each now inlaid with lead. It was a stubborn metal, one that did not easily bend to spell. But that obstinacy, once brought to heel by the dominating will of a powerful wizard, was a potent defensive reagent. Once the wards were activated, the lead's "deadening" essence would protect the beast from any spells the enemy used to try and bring it down. Which was necessary, for it was to go into the heart of Horde territory.

Drustai stepped from the creature, and drew an oak wand. The wand was new, oak was not a wood she typically kept with her. But only the most sovereign of woods could command metals with such stubborn qualities as lead, along with the powerful dragon spirit that would bear the wards. Drustai raised the wand into the air, and began to draw wide symbols before the dragon in front of her.

"Wrym of the Blue Dragonflight," she incanted in Eredun, "lain dead upon the Frozen Wastes of Northrend and risen to serve Drustai of Koramor, Eredar born of Argus and now Draenei, living and dead and living again, Master of Death. Your master commands you to take flight, armed with claw and fang and the frozen winds of the north and armored with plates of steel and wards of lead, invulnerable to arrow and magic alike. Lay waste to my enemy, the orcs and trolls and tauren and goblins and undead and blood elves and hozen of the Horde, at their villages and towns in the north-west of the Jade Forest, where the green land meets the river and not past it. Destroy their crude flying things, and their towers, and their huts, and their peoples, and then return here."

She thrust the wand upward upon the conclusion of her incantation. The draconic corpse immediately began to move, as if it had suddenly awoken. It rumbled past her, and then lept off a small rise, beating its wings as it took to the air. It let out one chilling roar as it soared into the distance, as if a final acknowledgement of its commands.

Drustai was done holding back against the Horde. The Light would forsake the Alliance, just like D'ore had forsaken the draenei during their hour of need. Only her own reviled powers would bring victory.

So yeah. Dru's set off her frostwyrm against the Horde. Ska's already known for awhile that I was planning something to this nature. RP with this as you see fit (likewise, Alliance could have heard the roar/seen the dragon flying off). I'll be around if anyone wants to make an attempt to bring it down, we can set up some dice rolls or something. Despite the wards and armor, it's still quite beatable... it's just one frostwyrm alone in Horde airspace. Kozgugore, Sadok, Vashnarz, and Krogon all have my BattleTag. The wyrm will attempt to frostbomb Strongarm Airstrip and bring down any Zepplins currently docked there. If victorious, it will then move on to Honeydew (with no regard for civilians. Woops). Not looking to completely level these places, just to make some bombing runs and do some damage (namely by damaging the airstrip, giving the Horde IC incentive to go after the barricade to secure a replacement supply route).

And here's an icon for the map:

If Nectarbreeze is colored Blue, does that mean the Alliance have gone trough with their plans to conquer it?

If so, you're probably going to have to get ready to fight a war at two fronts.

Aishling woke up in the morning in a traditional sin’dorei bed, still wounded from the dwarf ambush she had while on an diplomacy mission for the Horde. She did treat herself to a good book and a wine that evening, before fell asleep.
“And this is why you shouldn’t trust the Alliance! Pah! ‘Paladins! Fighting for good!’ but when it comes to negotiations you get stabbed in the back! The Alliance has turned into backstabbers!”
She felt herself getting angry and stood up from her sleepingbed, to once more collapse on the wooden floor of the tower. Her ankle, now looking swollen and flaming red, didn’t support her body.

She took her staff and used it as a cane to walk towards the kitchen, but as she walked a bloodstain on the bandage that was wrapped around her slim belly grew larger and larger. She tried to compose herself, eagerly looking for a felstone to heal herself once more. Outside she heard Orcs and Pandaren talk loudly at the breakfast table. “Yes! We’ll be charging that barricade the Alliance has set up! No, no, no, tonight! And it seems we’ll be getting reinforcements from the Forsaken!”

She looked at her tummy, and then back to her ankle. She was in no battlestate… the felmagic from yesterday made her able to walk, jump and do whatever she wanted, but this was the price. She only delayed the effects of the wounds, not cure them. She sighed and turned back to her warm bed. She sat on the bed, looked at the brown book: “Nature of a human”, written in Thalassian by Bas’ther Brightarrow and sighed. “I know those savages could use my help, but I have homework to do for Tuesday… Besides, I am no longer following that idiot of an orc anymore…” She told herself.

I won't be there tonight, so have fun! I will read what happened! =3

Seems the Alliance will have a witch burning tonight. \0/

Dru, you are a hero. A frost wyrm will make it much easier to convince those stubborn orcs to help Delidah with the construction of her Mini Mana-bomb.

Don't worry, I still love you. Aishling knew they got lost and all and made no attempt to hide it, and when Kazak wanted to assault the Alliance stronghold head-on she really started her I-don't-agree-with-this-idiot-but-don't-leave-me-alone-attitude. =P

My mind has only now brought together the thoughts 'The battle for the barricade is on Friday' and 'You have work on Friday'.

I won't be there
My presence will be felt though >

Come, Horde! The Barricade Hungers!

A few "Barricaded" lines:

Will update the Wyrm on the map as soon as i can.

"Tremble mortals, and despair. The Barricade has come to this world."

"There is No good! ...no Evil.... NO Light... only BARRICADE!"
