In two days, this war has completely changed in character. It went from bad numbers to pretty good ones. Thyatis is bringing the Landfall/Initial Force up the coast to link up with others and this force. King Ericall and Alzar will head back and set up in Sandralane’s defending territory again. They can make this the major battlefield again. The Queen’s guard is sailing over.

Day 6 – Markheim has fallen to the barbarians. Alzar teleports over and discusses battle plans with them. They will defend against the expected counterattack from Alak Dool, who still has 1500 troops of his

Day 8 – Alak Dool arrives back in Markheim. Alzar and Alak have a bit of a mage’s duel that results in little to either, but Alak Dool lost 60 or so of his troops in the exchange.

Day 9 – The wounded forces from the battle in Sandralane are now mostly healed.

Day 10 – Battle has begun in Markheim.

Let’s roll:

Alak Dool is outnumbered 1.5-1 - +15 for barbarians
Barbarians are defenders and defending a city +30 for barbarians
Alak is in his dominion - +10 for Alak Dool
Unknown to them, Alzar is there with his magic items, the Banner and Rod and will pop out and help = #5 more.

Barbarians are normally 68 and get to 113. Alak Dool gets to 84. Roll some dice!

24 for barbarians vs 43 for Alak Dool for….+45 diff, victory to barbarians.

0% for winner, -30% for losers, no tired on barbarians but tired for Alak Dool

Alak Dool’s forces are down to 950. Alzar teleports back.
