Alright, I positioned the troops. I think that in terms of strategy I did ok...
I suggest to B-E-T-A that he makes a two-pronged attack with the dwarven forces... Or an extremely long siege where famine would thin us out
Was actually my plan...btw, I had a week full of exams but now that their finnished, I'm back in action! And I'm also used to wait for the GM(Game Master)/DM(Dungeon Master) to post before I keep going

Well, no allies from Axeoth, then... But who needs elves anyway? (I do)

The reason why I didn't go on good guys team: They got elfs, and I'm the leader of the "I hate elfs club"

Let's say that I'm not fond of goody-two-shoes type of elves.
I hate Tolkien's elves... They're not human. They are too perfect, but homm elves can be alright...

Well, HoM&M5 elfs are actually just humans with pointy ears when you think about it...While in the other HoM&M games they are...actually just humans with pointy ears. But the tolkien elfs are actually more "elfish" seing as they are diffrent then humans, but the original elfs(from mythologi) was even more diffrent  . I hate them all anyway

Well, normally I would take evil guys, but rebels are actually more my style...
And, B-E-T-A, just attack... You have dwarves! Siege weaponry and weak units ready to be sacrificed! Btw, they are here on Maarn's orders. They don't care if some skellies would die. Maarn just wants the artifact and the dwarves just wanna go home. Think! Battle is imminent.

Well, to be honest, my favorite types of Elves are Wood Elves and (to a lesser extent) any type of Elves aligned with the Water Element. Dark Elves are okay, but I despise the High Elves of Warcraft, with their "I'm better than thou" snobbish attitude. 
Anyways, time to update my RPG and see what you guys wrote in this one.

I think this rpg may be a bit inaccessible... So maybe a summary in the masterpost would be nice.
I suggest naming the players and their greatest role like (for example):
Kaļ: resistance fighter, Kaļ is a powerful soldier and wielder (at least for the moment) of the great gem "the artifact" which gives the wielder near-godlike power for awhile, but drains energy of the wielder severely over time. Kaļ is a paladin of the destroyed griffin empire and has the resistance army of the Tchaida and the knights at his disposal.
Naxxarus: lich servant of Maarn, Naxxarus is a powerful servant of Maarn. He is an ex-mage, but converted to necromancy to stay alive. He has a great army of skeletons and dwarves at his disposal.
kemdil: resistance fighter/ mercenary, Kemdil is a skilled ranger (so he knows tracking, archery and nature magic)he is especially skilled at water magic. Making him extremely dangerous near watery areas. Currently, he has a detachment of dark elves at his disposal. He can also wield the artifact, but the artifact spreads greater energy among elves(slightly different effect than Kaļ's). He is the only axeothian.
If you want to incorporate further roles into them, you should post them here and Ename should copy + paste it in the masterpost.
npc's:
Del: comrade-in-arms of Kaļ. He's the cavalry commander and has a short fuse.
Vayrath: ex-dark elf commander, he was killed by a vampire and turned undead to serve the ranks of Naxxarus.
Siladroth: new dark elf commander, good warlock and has taken the place of Vayrath to lead the dark elves.
Kul-Thzir: orc, heavy infantry commander, Kul-Thzir is a bloodthirsty orc warrior. He leads the heavy infantry ranks and has experimented in combining orcs with human blood.
Helven: stoic, quiet Djinn-mage, Helven is the only mage left after Maarn had succesfully annihaliated the silver cities. Noone knows how she survived. she only talks to ppl who are "intelligent".
Ghetta: siege expert, Ghetta is the leader of the dwarven battalions who lack firepower, but are versatile. Ghetta is always in a good mood and knows the chain of command.
B-E-T-A has also a wight and vampire commander, but I forgot specifics...
Ename, just add this to the masterpost pls. And I would ask B-E-T-A and winter to refine/complete the list thank u and goodnight.

It's gonna be quite the tragic reunion when Vayrath gets reacquainted with Del, me, Siladroth or Kemdil.
Oh, and B-E-T-A, is it OK if Helven knows you from before Maarn attacked the Silver Cities? (Don't worry, she won't be able to give "critical info" or sumthing. Just to make the rpg a bit more alive)

Well, I got no problem with that, I'm actually planning a great siege battle with many unexcpected reunions(Vayrath and the others, Naxxarus and Heven.) and fights, wish I could make Enemality set it up just as I want it...
Wrylkar: A rather mysterious character, Wyrlkar is a wight, in other words a spirit dressed in cloaks, but he is not a normal wight. Wyrlkar is dressed in white and is the spirit of a necromancer and got the ability to order Naxxarus and Marlak around. Who this wight commander in reality is is a mysterium, but one can understand one thing for surtain: He is a force one should fear
Marlak: Ex-human, Marlak is Naxxarus right hand man and have been with him from the start. Even thou Marlak knows that his rank and power stands and falls with Naxxarus, Marlak seems to enjoy every time Naxxarus is losing, and dispise everytime Naxxarus wins. During his human life Marlak was a member of the silver cities, who had been sent to the mage school by his father, but instead of practicing magic, Marlak spent his time playing with the sword. Much more is not known of Marlak's life before death by any other than Moltana and Naxxarus, his old friends.
Moltana: Ex-human, even thou she can seem like an innocent and beutiful woman, Moltana is more deadly then a dagger in the dark, using Naxxarus own words. The only known thing about Moltanas former life is that she lived in the silver cities and was one of Naxxarus friends, but despise her friendship with Naxxarus and Marlak, she broke with them long time ago and started her own career as a vampire.
Kirandar: Ex-mage of the silver cities, after his death Kirandar was unwillingly turned into a lich by Naxxarus along with all the other teachers at the silver cities academy. Kirandar used to be a teacher in space and time magic and legends, but because his mana have been tapped by from him by Naxxarus, Kirandar is no longer any major threat to Maarn. Not so long ago, Kirandar dissappeared at the same time as all the other teachers at the academy of the silver cities dissappeared from the ranks from Maarns undead troops.
Ordom: General of the dwarfs who got orders to hunt down and reclaim "the artifact" from the rebellions and is willing to do anything to get it back. Just like Ordoms brother Ghetta, he is a exspert sieger and is always eager to tryout his new siege inventions which he means will make sieging easier, but 9/10 experiments fails...
hope it's okay that I said that Ghetta and Ordom are siblings.

Even better with Ordom as a brother
I think you should HCM your ideas to ename to see what he thinks.
I think that almost every officer has a counter... How shall we begin the siege?
Ow, and Ghetta=man

I...can't really see the counters....hmmm...Yeah I'll HCM him the siege idea when I write it. If nobody post tomorrow in IC, I'll post that we surrond your base and the siege plan we make before attacking.
Edit: Ohh, and DagotGates, could you please make a map/drawing of the landscape around the base with a little more explonation about your defenses and after that I could make a map with the attack plans.

Well, there are a few counters...
Vayrath vs Siladroth (friends)
Helven vs Naxxarus (ex-silver city)
Kaļ vs Wrylkar (two commanders)
Ordom vs Ghetta (brothers)
Moltana vs Kemdil (Two nimble and agile fighters)
Del vs Marlak (two strong sergeants)
Well, the main protagonists(kaļ, Kemdil and Naxxarus) should survive or come out badly bloodied. And the question is: should ename post the fights of the NPC's or does he simply gets to decide who dies and we type it out?
EDIT: I will, but don't expect it to be good

Hmm, I see. Well, I was planning on a Naxxarus "death" were it seems that Naxxarus dies but he used some mumbo jumbo magic(Rebirth  ) and survived and when he returns everyone will be shocked and will not know who he is first cause he look like a living human(told you it was rebirth).
Good question, I hope for the Enemality decides who dies and we type it out.
I don't expect it to be good, just enough to get a map in my head to create plans from. And if you don't want to we can ask Winterfate, his good at it(see his own thread)(his good at making maps that is overviewable).

This is kinda how I imagine it. Allow me to explain: the grey circles are gates marked north and south. The yellow circles are the gathering points of the ground infantry forces. The r stands for the residence areas. S is for storage. B is for barracks facilities. and k is the hq where Kaļ waits. The brown line that goes through the camp is the road of sorts that connect both gates...
The forest is very close... Which could give enemy archers an advantage. the walls are stone, but not very big. You can only acces the hill at two points... The brown line indicates where the hills are too steep to climb. If anyone can make a good drawing, be my guest.

Hrmm.. lets see...
The battle is a very important part of the game, so I'll roleplay their general choices and you can direct the specific actions that occur during whatever individual combat situations arise.
e.g., I say, 'Ordom stays behind with his siege weaponry,' and Kai wanted to fight him, DagothGares would decide exactly what Ordom does during their personal battle.
And that map will definitely come in handy, we should get it into the IC.
