Hi,
Here's the (unedited transcript from the battle). Feel free to embellish the
story. All mistakes on events are mine. All strange words are my newtons. :)
later,
David Drew
<<Title: Brickwars Notes...>>
Armies on the field:
James - Dragon Templars - horseman, archers, swordsmen
Richard - Colonial Marine Redcoats - lead by Captain Branwallace
Dave L - Revolting peasants - lead by Cortez
Kevin - Murcelagos (sort of dragon-knight guys)
Richard has an early break-through finding someone at the local inn who had
sighted the sixteen year olds at the pub. After an initially reluctant
answer, Richards' innovative questioning methods revealed a potential
location.
Other of Richards troops attempted to destroy a local polar bear, but
unfortunately missed And took out some local shrubbery.
James' interrogation of the surf-club Revealed that the monarch had been
there the night before, doing some under-age partying.
Meanwhile, Daves' peasants were amassed in front of the pub, trying to
decide whether to crash the pub, or fight James' men.
After a couple of police officers killed Richards' informant, Richard gets
vengeful, and kills off the police, inciting the wrath of the constabulary.
After Joan gets arrested at the monastery, the pyre gets warmed up...
A couple of policemen, after vigourously 'interrogating' Joan for hours,
throw themselves into the ocean in fit of remorse.
As accidental ignition of a cannon spells disaster for three of James'
crossbow-men, causing them to be flung bodily in the direction of the
afterlife. In retaliation, the return fire gets a poor peasant.
With an amazingly good shot, one of James' warriors manages to kill the
flame-carrier of the cannon. Unfortunately, the flame falls upon the
powder-keg! Catastrophe looms for Daves army! In desperation, a peasant
flings a comrade on the burning powder, in an attempt to extinguish the
flame. Remarkably, this bold move succeeds.
Richard's cavalry then takes aim at some of Kevins cavalry. After some great
rolling of damage die, two of Kevin's knights lie dead.
Joan starts to burn...
James and Daves' men continue to fight, while Daves horsemen advance on the
party, while the nuns and Mc police are already there. Doing what, the
speculation is rife. The pope flees on a white charger.
An interrogation of a Rasta proves fruitless, while a ninja prefers seppuku,
rather than reveal anything.
The pope gets struck by a falling witch, causing him to topple off his
charger, into the hands of the waiting soldiers. Is this the end of the
pontiff?
Richard attempts to bribe the witch for answers, try to find something to
offer. Protection is requested, and granted. The witch nominates her enemy
as a bunch of knights who are in front of the beach-house. Taking aim with
his cannon, Richard misses. and causes grievous damage to the pope-mobile.
The arrival of a Timmy (bearing a bunch of flowers) causes both joy and
consernation on the battlefield. Responding quickly, James' cavalry ponders
whether to vivsect timmy, or hand him to the loose women of the church of
seamentology...
.New information extracted by Kevin reveals that the king was at the party,
but has now left.
In a surprise move, it is revealed that the king was the pope! He was merely
dressed up for the party. Richard attempts to leave the field of battle with
the King, thereby securing victory.
Trying to secure the king, all remaining forces turn on Richard's Redcoats,
who are now trying to execute a 'retrograde manoeuvre', while firing at the
oncoming enemy.
Richard then transfers the king onto a horse, to further enable escape. A
cannon vapourises a knight, while a second cannon, attempting to take out on
enemy emplacement, misses, yet strikes a mast which falls on the enemy, with
the sails blinding them.
All seems lost for the opposition; the pope/ king is on a horse, and cannot
possibly be caught... Other miscellaneous combat occurs, but who cares? Will
the severed head of Timmy save the day somehow?
In all, a valiant attempt to stop the musket live fails, with victory
falling to Richard!
