The last battle...(OOC)
Hello this is my first RP thread and i hope it is original and that someone will join it
I have noticed that no RP threads have large battles.
The largest battle i have seen was a small fight against a 24 bandits.
Why not make a whole RP to be about a HUGE battle. One you might see in the end game stages of Homm5.
What is difference between this and all other RPs?
i will let the video do the explaining.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2Sy7qkkTy8&feature=related
you only need to watch the first 50 seconds
To put it simple your characters are Very likely to get killed. But that's not a bad thing. Its actually good 
Rules
1. You get an unlimited number of characters.
Example: Character 1 gets his head chopped off by an orc.
You make a completely new character and enter the battle again.
You may have a main character that you will post with most of the battle but for objectives out of your main characters reach you can create a temporary character, that you can discard afterward.
2. You get Ten hand of fate points that last the whole RP. You can get more by performing great acts on the battlefield (Killed a dragon).
You may use these to change the outcome of actions.
Example: You are about to get run through with the sword but you spend 1 point for a minotaur to charge the one who was about to run you through.
You will refer to this as luck when in the RP unless you have some magical insight.
NOTE: These can be used for everything, but you will get other bonuses by completing various objectives.
3. You may kill another player but you cannot do it without warning.
Example: You trow a fire ball to incinerate the large troll
NOT: You trow a fire ball which incinerates the troll immediately.
4. I am one of the leaders of one of the armies .The first one to post here gets to be the leader of the second army. We may also have one regular character to act on the battlefield.
5. Spell Casters must tell at least in the narrative what spell they cast. (this applies if you cast a buff or curse on someone)
6. Stealth is banned for the simple reason that there are eyes everywhere. If you have an artifact or special ability you can skip over this rule.
7. When a reward is some sort of object you must grab the object and survive the fight. You must then figure out a way to get it to your main character. Either by dropping it as you pass by him or her or transfer it indirectly(Like pretending they had it all along or that they just found/looted it)
8. Your character is open to everyone if you have gone offline to long
9. You may not kill yourself. (this goes to people who are playing someone else character.)
10. It gets tiring to keep writing back story for your character if he keeps geting killed so none is required. Names are obligatory and please dont use common names it really lowers quality if you use John instead of Agrael.
11. You can control Npcs that are on the battlefield AS long as you give them logical actions

In RPG's where many people die you can say that they just post pictures, if they want to spend even less time making the char sheets and gt right into battle. It's sometimes easier to have pictures, simply because we all have the same character in mind as wel, though it shouldn't be obligatory.
Name: Drogeroth
Appearance:
Body armour: impeccable
Striking weapon: impeccable
Cloak: impeccable
Ornaments (the spikes): impeccable
Race: Demonic
Details: Only the face is partially exposed. the armor is sculpted to give the appearance of strength, but inside is a frail man. His magic is capable of giving him superhuman strength, though. His presence sends shivers down the spine of regular, due to his demonic heritage. some whisper he is a devil that managed to enter the earth. This usually is followed by a broken neck.
Side: Army 2
I had this in mind when creating the character.
if Lord Immortal does not want, can my character be the commander of the enemy army?
If you prefer I'd rather not lead the armies, then I'll go with:
Name: Hetar
Appearance: looks like this
Sword: well kept
shield: damaged but decent
straps: ragged, they used to keep his armour in plce, but he lost it.
Details: Captain of the third platoon in the lizard vanguard, one of the first striking armies of army 2
Race: naga
Side: Army two

Well, if Lord_Immortal wants to be the leader, i'll gladly step aside...
I was just confused by the fact he chose army 1, because I thought you led army 1...
If he wants to lead the other army, I'll accept the fact I was slwoer and step aside and fight with my demonsnake.

I feel as immortal is a little ahead of schedule. When did the battle start? We should wait for DG to get back so if can lead his side too.
Oh, and I was planning on keeping the unicorns back protected against skirmishes with light cavalry. The heavy cavalry will be joining the centaurs.
And you can't know the results of such a huge action as firing the weapon immediately but our GM (lucky) has to decide that. Even if it worked you'd have to send something or cast a spell to know what happened.
And I would like to low what kind of numbers are we talking in this rpg. Three hundred stoned but only two hundred to protect the archers? Does not compute.
