Ambush Outside Raventree Hall

[Ollie]

In the middle of the night, the 15,000 northern forces and the 500 crownlanders amongst them surrounding and encamped with the ironborn/riverlanders under the command of Erik Greyjoy launch their ambush. There are no horns or whistles, no noises, no torches and banners. They rise as they are commanded and begin the attack on the ironborn.

The riverlander forces are commanded that if they stand down and surrender, no harm will come to them.

Erik Greyjoy is to be taken alive, if possible.


Participants:
Olander Reed- Master of the Spear (wielding Gods' Sight) / Master Ambushing
Lothar Marsh- Master of the Sword
Tregar Reed- Grandmaster of the Bow
Lord Harry Hornwood- Master of the Warhammer
Barth Harclay- Master of the Sword
Mag Stane- Master of the Stone Axe

Ser Patrek Redfort, and the King's Men under the command of Danwell Farring are also present with the crownland forces.


Tregar Reed and Lothar Marsh will be accompanying Olander Reed during the battle.

Total Forces: 15,500

[Erik]

Erik is a Grandmaster of the Axe, wielding Kegsplitter. He is an Expert of Naval Battle, with whatever penalties apply here.

He will be cutting his way to Olander Reed as best he can, and brutally murdering the son of a bitch. If utterly overwhelmed, he will surrender.

He has 1,600 men, I believe, 600 Ironborn and 1,000 Riverlanders.

Now really, who didn't see this coming? Classic Olander Reed bluffing.

[Erik]

/me saw it coming. Kept going.

[Ollie]

I was rooting for a Erik-Olander team up, but NOOOO.

And take it to the OOC thread, you guys are clogging up my battle thread.

He should get an intrigue bump for this one, this is even more elaborate than the Red Priest betrayal

Erik screams profanity, and looses Kegsplitter from his back, slicing through man and metal with equal ease. He killls Maxwell Hill, Harry Hornwood and Olander's own kin Tregar Reed without so much as a second thought, as he makes his way towards the treacherous Crannogman.

The remaining Ironborn sell their lives dearly, following the example of their seemingly unstoppable King. Greyjoy cuts down Verdan, Gawyn, and Lothar Marsh, before finally recognizing that he is defeated.

[Lord Rhaegar Targaryen]

Badass award for Erik Greyjoy.

Petition for Expert Melee for Pyne... he had some decent rolls in there... 76~ average.

[Erik]

I'll add it to my collection.

[Lord Rhaegar Targaryen]

I'll be taking that collection when I kill you

But seriously, I respect you cutting down 6 names.
