Because clearly we need to add "being a responsible father" to the list of reasons Ur'shal is a bit of an oddity for an orc.

>>43122569
I honestly agree that anons can't distance themselves from the human concept of family, especially since even if Inka's kid IS magic that won't be relevant for years to come, but we do have to talk to Ku'zag about the new clan's religion as well.
This is why I voted for >>43122582

>>43122554
>Find Ku'zag, see if he's had a chance to look at your whelps yet
Then bang Ashuris like we promised

>>43122605
Ehh, we haven't gone to far yet. Consider it from the chieftains perspective, looking at them as future warriors to fight for him.

>>43122613
I don't think we have time.

>>43122634
Yes, but read what I said, the thing is even if she is, it won't be relevant for a while yet.
At the earliest it will matter when she reaches the age to be mentored, because I think she might be priestess/shaman material since she reacted to our blessed scar.

>>43122635
In my heart I know, but the desire for preggar sex is strong within me

>>43122643
Still good to check out these things early.

Anyway, other than being nice to our slaves we're not exactly un-orcy. Getting the shaman to check out a potential asset/threat is the smart thing to do.

>>43122675
>Still good to check out these things early.
As I said, not it isn't, not when we could be doing other useful things that are relevant right now.

>>43122706
We're the Chief not an overseer. Our tribe isn't made of children, they know how to raid and look after themselves.

>>43122716
We're a Chief not a babysitter, our shaman knows to check out children and we don't need to know things that aren't relevant at all.
We're the chief, and we're also the military commander.
Lordy literally said this is the first time we raided a fortified settlement.
Involving ourselves in the raid would also help impress the newcomers.

While the raid is a priority, there is still another matter nagging at the back of your mind. It isn't long before you track down the old shaman, running into him as he makes his way back through the camp towards his tent. Despite the chaos around him, the orcs still maintain a respectful distance from the old shaman.

“Chieftain, if you wanted to ask about your whelps, I just finished looking at them,” Ku'zag grunts, and you fall into step alongside the shaman as he shuffles along.

“So what's wrong with her?”

“She's not slow in the head, if that's what you're worried about. She's a latent oneiromancer, eh, that's someone who is strongly linked to the flow of dream realms, that's what she's staring at all the time.”

“So she's a sorceress?”

“Not exactly, it's a bit different from that, but close enough I suppose. Of course that doesn't mean she isn't mad, most oneiromancers tend to be strange. It might be a family trait from her mother, your slave and her captive sister aren't oneiromancers themselves, but their instability could've come from having a diluted form of the gift.”

“So what can an oneiromancer do?” you ask, as the two of you arrive at the tent, Ku'zag setting himself down on the rock, his old bones popping audibly as he does so.

“With practice, she could learn to do many things with it, projecting her consciousness, shaping and binding dream entities, divination. Only problem is that there's no-one in this clan with the skills to mentor her. This isn't a problem now, but as she grows and her powers develop it could be dangerous, for her and for the rest of us.”

(cont)

>>43122777
“Dangerous how?”

“Accidentally manifesting nightmares in the mortal realm, or just attracting unfriendly fey attention.”

“Isn't there anything you can do about it?”

“Not me, you need to find someone with the knowledge to train her to control her abilities, but oneiromancers aren't exactly common. If you're lucky, she might even learn to control them by herself, but there will be a lot of... trial and error involved.”

You grunt in response, at least you've got plenty of time to consider how to deal with that particular problem.

“Aside from that, your whelps are all fine and healthy. I think you've got at least another three or four in there with an aptitude for magic, but it'll be a few years before I can say for sure.”

“Good to know, we need all the spellcasters we can get.”

>Ask Ku'zag about something else (write-in)
>Go help with the raid preparations

>>43122811
>not wanting to fuck our newly acquired lamia after the raid
Git gud anon, fuck ogretits before the raid, then fuck our lamia after the raid

>>43122825
just fyi, the raid preparation and killing time in your hut options are mutually exclusive, since it will take you up to the beginning of the raid, so there will be no ogretits if you choose to aid in raid preparation.

>>43122852
Well then.

When you say she could possibly shape and bind dream entities, are talking about shaping and binding sexy dream entities?

"Snekbutt" takes on an entirely new meaning, as it's now the only hole we have available to us.

Looks like chieftaining has even overcome Ur's lust for ogretits.

Writing.

Why the sudden surge of raid preparations?

>>43123056
For me anyway, it was lust for sneks.

>>43123066
You would have gotten sneks! We'd have both anon

>>43123065

Ogretits will always be our best ogre, and will always have great tits.

But we just got a lot of new warriors and are about to raid our first fortified position. I don't want to seem like the lazy chief who ruts all day and walks into battle all lazy and sex-slowed. We need to be disciplined and focused here.

>>43123087
We can still have best girl later anon.

But this is a big raid, we need to prep.

>>43123066
I want snek and I voted for orgetits, because I know already that now that ogretits didn't win, she will win the smut vote after the raid, which means we won't get lamia smut today, or even if we will, we will get less of it than we otherwise would have.

You glance back at the camp, catching sight of the one the ripper lizards idly scratching at the stone of a hut, sharpening its claws.

“Ku'zag. The horned lizards, one of the new clans to join us. Many of them worship a non-orcish god, Atrolavoth. Their chieftain Yo'tak says they honor the orcish gods too, but... is this going to be a problem?”

Ku'zag frowns, rhuemy eyes squinting at the warbeast. “Not a problem, no, provided that the lizard god's worship doesn't encroach on our true gods. I will keep an eye on them, and I'll have that runt of a shaman do the same. May as well give him something useful to do.”

“Not happy with his help?”

“He's just barely a shaman, his mentor died to that skyhunter chieftain before he could finish teaching him. Feels like he spends more time asking me how to do his job than actually doing it,” Ku'zag snorts.

“You think he'd be worth taking on the raid? Might do him some good to get some practice, and more magic will be useful.”

“Go ahead, he knows a few useful tricks at least.”

You nod, thoughts of the raid whirling through your mind. “Ku'zag, any other advice to give me about fighting these dragon cultists?”

“The lamia? There'll be plenty of spellcasters, lamia have a natural aptitude towards magic. Aside from that, just watch out for their tails, those things are strong, and I speak from personal experience on that one,” Ku'zag frowns, wincing as he remembers some old wound.

(cont)

>>43123247
“Understood. Good luck keeping this place standing while I'm away,” you smirk, earning a humorless snort from the old shaman as you walk away.

Tempting though it is to spend the rest of the afternoon in your hut, especially since you'd half-promised Ashuris some fun, you can't ignore the raid. The raid going well will be vital for your clan's future, and you can't put entertaining yourself with a slave before that. The majority of your clan will be coming on the raid with you, the compound is simply too well defended not to bring all your strength to bear against it, but you will still need to leave some orcs behind to watch over the camp, and your whelps and slaves, which means one of your lieutenants is going to have to sit this raid out. The question is who...

>Zo'rok

>>43123268

>>43123383

>>43123363

You're evil

Or'kug sitting this one out then.

Writing.

>>43123410
Have you seen her rolls?

>>43123410
We need someone to tank in case the village gets attack

You find Or'kug in the thick of the preparations, the old orc explaining in slow, quiet tones to several very nervous looking young warriors what unfortunate things might happen if he catches them sneaking away to fuck slaves when they'd been told to gather supplies. He waves them away as you approach, the pack scurrying off to carry out their orders.

“Chieftain. I understand your reasoning behind this raid, but it's hard enough keeping the older members of the clan in line, with these new ones it's like trying to herd spiders,” he frowns, giving the retreating orcs a sour look.

“They'll learn, even if drumming it into their heads requires breaking a few skulls.”

“I hope so. So what was it you wished to discuss with me, chieftain?” Or'kug asks, eyes scouring the mass of orcs for someone else to browbeat.

“I want you to stay here. I need one of my lieutenants to keep this place from falling apart while we're away.”

“I see. I have no problem with that. Ba'za seems worried she'll be too old to bear a litter soon, damned female forgets sometimes she's half my age, but spending some time doing my duty to Y'zagya Zoka might get her off my back for a while,” Or'kug snorts.

“If the half-elf's information was accurate, they shouldn't be arriving yet, but still, you might want to keep an eye out for those adventurers, just in case,” you grunt, Or'kug giving you a nod.

With that done, you turn your attention towards the preparations as a whole. Your lieutenants do know what they're doing, but still, as you wander the camp watching things progress, you can't help but feel that things could still progress smoother.

That chieftain practice.

Considering that you chose to come out here and help with preparations rather than spending time in your hut enjoying your ogress slave, there's no way you're going to accept anything less than perfection out of your clan. You spend the next three hours giving instructions, bellowing orders and backhanding at least one troublesome orc across the face, and when you're done, you find yourself standing before a remarkably well organized raiding force.

Your orcs stand ready before the gates of your fortifications, assembled into their numerous packs and eager for battle. They carry an assortment of weapons, bone and stone mingled with the old and tarnished but still effective iron looted from the Waste's tombs. Standing out from the horde of warriors are the clan's warbeasts, Yo'tak and two of the other former horned lizards sat astride their towering Ripper Lizards. Sho'ka gives you a grin from atop Skar, the stormhorn growing larger every time you see her, and several other stormhorn riders cluster nearby, their beasts smaller than Skar, but still large enough to tear a path of destruction through the compound's flimsy walls. You spot other warbeasts amidst the force too, some of your more Tak'zaya Ska minded orcs having gathered up the larger and most intimidating of the craglions and bandersnatch ready to unleash on your enemies.

“Ready Ur?” Zo'rok grins, stepping up next to you, as Dru'ak and the rest of the honorguard assemble by your side.

“Of course,” you grunt, stepping through to the front of the raiding party, your warriors parting to allow you passage.

“Those lamia have wasted their lives worshipping dragons, let's go give them something bigger and better to pray to,” you bellow, earning a chorus of roars and laughter, the war pack falling into step alongside you.

(cont)

>>43124301
The march down to the edge of the jungle is uneventful. You take a slightly longer route, because while you doubt the shifters would be foolish enough to attack a force of this size, you'd rather not waste warriors on a needless engagement before you need to. Your forces sleep that night under the thick jungle canopy, and while your scouts have spotted a few troglodytes skulking around, the fey beasts are wise enough to stay well away from your warriors.

The second day brings you deeper still into the jungle, close to the harpy nests you raided before, which now sit empty on the branches. By the end of the second day, you're deeper into the jungle than you've ever been before, though Koz'rak and your scouts assure you that you're in no danger of getting lost, they're scouted this route out many times before.

Of course, your confidence is somewhat lessened several hours later in the early hours of the morning, when you are awakened from your sleep by Koz'rak himself, the lieutenant looking none too happy.

“We're down three scouts, Ur, they were due back two hours ago,” the lieutenant grunts as you rise, Ya'zada yawning as she sits up next to you.

They already know we're coming, then. The only way to regain the element of surprise is to advance the timetable.

This is perfect, considering that we plan to eventually deal with 4 dragons and their worshipers.
>>43124321
>>Send out a search party
>>Double the guards around the camp
Probably picked off by some trouble-
Oh, wait.
The adventurers were a week or so away, that means they were 7 days' distance form the camp.
3 days have passed, and we are 3 days' worth of distance from our camp, while the adventurers are supposed to be around 4 days' worth of distance away.
These are those pesky adventurers, aren't they?
DAMN IT!
I didn't realize it would take this long to reach the lamias!
Even if these scouts' disappearance isn't because of the adventurers, we won't be able to fight the adventurers if they arrive at our camp before we get back!

>>43124321
>>Wake the raiding party, press on now

>>43124321

You're probably right, and if you are, this is GREAT news. It means they won't be messing with our camp while we're away.

>>43124321
>Wake the raiding party, press on

Doubling the guards reduces how much rest our guys get while also letting the Lamia prepare for our arrival.
Considering how many spellcasters they have, I'd really rather not do that.

We critted organization so an attack earlier than scheduled shouldn't turn us into a disorganized rabble quite that easily.

“Wake them up, if the lamia found our scouts, we'll want to strike now before they can mount a defense,” you grunt.

Despite some grumbling, your warriors collect themselves quickly, and are ready to break camp sooner than you'd expected. As you march on, it's K'zala who slips up next to you, your small mate taking hold of your arm and looking up at you. You glance down at her with a questioning look, catching the uneasy expression on her exotic features.

“Do you hear that?”

You frown, listening, it's a quiet night to be certain, but what few nocturnal creatures you can hear don't seem to be anything out of the ordinary to you.

“There's plenty of strange animals out here, K'zala,” you grunt, though you find yourself glancing around all the same. It's when you spot Vor'zal that you realize there might be more to it than that, the old priest looking strangely agitated, stalking this way and that, teeth bared.

“Chieftain, up ahead, one of the scouts,” an orc calls, and you push through the orcs at the front to see for yourself.

It's one of your scouts for sure, and it looks like he's been through quite a fight by the look of him. He stumbles out of the treeline, arms hanging loose at his side, bleeding from several stab wounds in his chest, which look to have gone straight through his leathers.

“Damn, did the lamia do that to him?” Zo'rok winces, as the orc shambles forward, stumbling on the undergrowth only to pick himself back up.

(cont)

>>43124817
Some of your orcs move forward to help him, only to stop at a sudden command.

“Don't go near him,” a voice snaps, Aza'ra shoving aside some of your warriors as she pushes to the front of the raiding party.

“That was no lamia that did that,” the priestess snarls, as you spot more figures emerging from the undergrowth, another of your scouts, along with a half dozen assorted humans and elves, all looking pallid and emaciated, and all with the same stab wounds across their bodies, the flesh around it sickly and diseased.

“So what did do it?” you frown.

“Didn't expect to see them this far north-east, they usually stay deeper in the jungle. Something must've driven them up this way,” Aza'ra growls, pointing up into the canopy.

You squint into the darkness, spotting a dark shape perched between the branches, then you spot another, and another... You count at least twenty of the things lurking amidst the leaves. They're human-sized, but they don't look at all human in shape, hunched, clinging to the branches with six spindly legs. You're torn away from watching them by a call from your warriors as yet more ragged figures stumble out of the treeline, your warriors forming up to meet the shambling horde.

“What are they?”

“Itikskes. Nasty fuckers, they take control of things by drinking their blood, then use them as fodder. They know some magic too, so watch yourself, chieftain.”

>>43124833

I am completely unable to pronounce that.
>Ask Aza'ra if the orcs taken command of are as good as dead or if they can be saved in a way that's possible right now
>If no, tell our orcs to cut the ones who have been taken control of
>Tell our magicians to light up the fuckers, and our archers to aim for them
>Remember, if they aren't in melee range, they can't take control of you(I think), stay away from the treeline and watch out for them trying to sneak up on you
Those 6 legs sadly make it impossible to fight them on the trees, so our only choice is to cut down their fodder and either wait for them to personally attack, or try to shoot them down.
>Check out what's up with Vor'zal, if he wants to go after them, let him but tell him to be careful

>>43124923
Probably not without risking whatever brand of strange they injected our scouts with.

>>43124833
>Don't embarrass the Gods by dying before the real right starts

>>43124833
Have any magic users and archers target the nasties in the trees, while Ur and the rest form up and defend them from the zombies. Better play it defensively, we don't want to spend our energy before the snekbutt.

“Can our scouts be saved?”

“After that much damage? No, the only thing keeping them alive is the magic,” Aza'ra replies, shaking her head.

You nod, looking over the shambling horde closing in on you.

“Warriors, no mercy, cut them down, archers, spellcasters, target the things in the trees. Whatever you do, don't let them bite you,” you bellow.

Despite their tiredness, the strange scene before your raiding party spurs their action, and by the time the first of the Itikskes' slaves have reached your warriors, they find themselves facing a well ordered row of spears.

The start of the fight on the ground seems to be the signal for the Itikskes themselves, and with a high-pitched droning that sets your teeth on edge, they break from the canopy, swooping down towards your warriors, seemingly intent on breaking up the front line of your defenses to allow their slaves to breach.

Unfortunately for them, they've underestimated the aerial capabilities of your raiding party. A flurry of arrows streak through the air as the Itikskes break cover. While many of the remarkably agile insects avoid the projectiles with sudden veering changes in direction, three of them are not so lucky, skewered on the volley, one of the creatures ending up pinned to a tree, twitching spasmodically with an arrow through its thorax.

Another of the insects explodes in a shower of sparks and gore as Bra'kur hurls an arc of lightning into it with a bark of laughter, the creature's bulbous abdomen bursting in a shower of stolen blood. Despite your victories, several of the Itikskes, darting down to stab at your warriors with their probiscus', and you see one of your warriors knocked out of the formation as he is speared straight down through the neck into his chest, another of the creatures swooping in to aid the first in lifting the gurgling orc up off the ground and into the trees.

(cont)

>>43125633
Your force is well organized however, and while the first sweep of the creatures puts a dent in your front line, other orcs quickly step in to fill it, stopping the creatures' slaves from breaking through. By the time the creatures prepare to make a second sweep, your forces are even more prepared, and several more fall in the volley of arrows and magic.

What remains of the overgrown insects quickly scatter back into the trees, evidently not willing to risk further losses, leaving their slaves to continue their hopeless assault on your forces and cover their retreat. You join the warriors on the front line, cutting through the ragged collection of elves and humans until no more remain. What a waste, some of them looked like they would've made fine slaves before the Itikskes ruined them.

“Fucking things. We got lucky there, if they'd had a chance to start disrupting our forces, things could've gotten real bad real quickly,” Aza'ra frowns, as the droning of the Itikskes' wings fade into the background noise of the jungle.

Not smart to chase after flying enemies in an area hard to navigate and advance in.
I don't want to give them another chance to attack in the same place though, plus I don't want to waste time.

While your warriors look ready for more action, you know that it's still a fair few hours march to the lamia compound. The fire will have faded by then, leaving you with a force of tired, careless warriors more interested in sleeping than fighting. You move on away from the bodies, not eager to tempt scavengers into your camp while you rest, and set up camp once more, ordering an increase in guards in case the Itikskes return.

“The third scout never came back, and he wasn't mixed in with the slaves, he's either dead or lost. With the scouts included, we lost six warriors in that attack, not a bad number,” Zo'rok explains, as you sit back against a tree, K'zala nestled up next to you, already half-asleep.

“We'll press on after the sun's up. Have everyone ready to go mid-morning, that way we'll make it there in time to hit them at nightfall,” you grunt.

“Can do, Ur,” your friend nods, and you slip off to sleep with K'zala curled up against your chest, one without interruptions this time.

Your warriors look far more well-rested when you break camp the next day, and despite last night's battle, most talk seems to be focused on the fight ahead, boasting of how many enemies they'll kill, and many discussions between your warriors about how exactly you fuck something with a snake's tail for legs.

Koz'rak halts the party in the early evening, conferring with a returning scout and heading over to speak with you.

(cont)

>>43127199
“The compound is just up ahead. They've got torches set up all around the outside, and the trees have been cut back in a clearing around it. Guards on the walls, mostly humans and elves, but they've got some lamia mixed in with them calling the shots. They've got a lot of archers up there, Ur, we'd lose a fair number of warriors in a frontal charge for sure. Looks like they've had some run-ins with the Itikskes too, got a few heads on spikes by the front gate.”

“How close can we get without being spotted?” you ask, contemplating your lieutenant's words.

“It would by hard to get too close, there's gaps in their patrols on the wall though, and the humans and elves don't see well in the dark... don't know about the lamia though.”

“Any other defenses?”

“Looks like they've got a trench dug in front of the wall, but nothing too wide or deep. I reckon the stormhorns and the ripper lizards could go right over it. Might be more of a problem for our warriors on foot though.”

>Write-in plan or ask more questions

>>43126860
>>43126888
Will do.

>>43127080
You got me, anon, my life is just like my hentai games.

>>43127213
So stormhorns and ripper lizards assualt from the front as distraction while the bulk of our troops circle around to find an easier way through?

>>43127259
I dunno, you tell me, bear in mind that while stormhorns and ripper lizards are resistant to arrows, the people riding them are not so much.

You have three ripper lizards and ten stormhorns.

>>43127213
We could take some time to cut down some smaller trees to lash together and make bridges to put over the ditches?

>>43127279
You certainly could.

>>43127213
Could we try a feint? Draw the defenders away from the more defensible positions and then attack where there are weaknesses?

>>43127213
Ku'zag said nothing about nightvision, so I'll go off on that.
Can we somehow replicate the sound of the Itikskes?
The obvious course of action is seeking to the side they aren't paying attention to and then breaking in like that, somehow.
If we could make tunnels, it could work.

>>43127213
Can we light a small forest fire? Make the smoke and fire draw their attention and attack on the other side, while leaving a small force in the direction of the fire to attack once the lamia react to our attack on the other side?

>>43127213
I suggest having a stealth force ready on the standby when we do this plan >>43127298
to swoop in towards the few lamia still awake and subdue them before they can have the chance to wake up the rest of the enclave. The fewer spellcasters against us, the better.

>>43127213
Get a force of stealthy orcs together, have them go to the opposite side of the field while still in the trees.
Have the rest of our orcs go back a ways, and make noise while approaching the lamia camp, so they'd focus on this side.
Have our stealthy orcs invade meanwhile.
Keep our stormhorns hidden before our stealthy orcs are in, then when the fighting inside the compound starts, rush the wall.
Wait, is the wall made of wood? We could set fire to it as a distraction.

>>43127381
Finally a real reason to have Bra'kur around.

>>43127213
Construct a bunch of pavises to cover the riders of the stormhorns who can hit the wall first and knock it down while ripper lizards drag some preconstructed bridges over the ditch for the warriors on foot to travel across.

>>43127381
>Wait, is the wall made of wood?
It is.

>>43127308
>Can we somehow replicate the sound of the Itikskes?
Not really, it's a high pitched droning noise.

>>43127402
Not a bad idea, we could get some wood together to cover the riders with from arrows, maybe have Bra'kur ride along on one of them and hit them once the lamia start throwing magic around.
>>43127418
How many orcs do we have?

>>43127443
You have approx 250 orcs.

Using the Great Bra'kur to set fire to the pallisade is a good idea.

>>43127469
but only once the stealth attackers are in and everything is ready for the assault
it's pretty hard to rally together defenders if their commanders are all taken out before the battle

>>43127467
Then have 50 to 100 orcs with the stormhorns attack from one side, once the fighting starts, the rest with the ripper lizards tries to sneak up on the other side, or if no sneaking then rushing.
Maybe set one of the sneakiest orcs to light fire to the wall beforehand.

The issue with fire is that it tends to kill potential slaves.

Summoning Tunnelbro to this thread

>>43127507
It's just meant to confuse these are spell casters, they should be decent in a fight.
We could've brought Lokasi along.

Okay, so putting all this together...

You want to construct some makeshift platforms to cross the pit and pavises to cover the stormhorn riders.

You want to send a stealthy force to loop around the camp.

Once the stealth force is in position, you want to attract their attention to the front of the camp by making noise as your main force advances to the treeline.

Then have the stealth force slip in and start raising hell (including starting a fire?), at which point your main force attacks and your stormhorns breach the wall.

Does that all sound accurate?

>>43127526
Lokasi's a bit pregnant right now.

>>43127526
We bring her on the next big Elf raid we go on.

>>43127553
sounds about right.

>>43127553
Scratch the fire, but mostly yes, I suppose.

>>43127553
maybe also set some fires with lightning strikes

>>43127526
>>43127569
I thought we wanted to bring her along on a hunt first?

>>43127553
I thought the idea was to use the stealth force to take the commanders out and the fire stuff would be related to our assault?

>>43127598
Imagine if Lokasi saw us scare off a pack of troglodytes with our shout.

>>43127553
Sounds fine to me.

>>43127613
ya that is what I saw

>>43127613
Fire was intended as additional distraction, but it may be more trouble than worth.

>>43127613
You want to set fires on the side your main force is assaulting on?

>>43127643
No no no, Either scratch the fire, or make the stealth force start it somewhere a bit away from themselves to further cause chaos and draw attention to that side.

Okay, since this seems to be a matter of dispute, I'll put it up to a vote.

Bra'kur can save his energy to shoot lighting at the cultists and bothersome lamia

>>43127668
>No fires

We can see better at night, and the compound is unfamiliar territory for us.
Making the place more confusing and chaotic by starting fires will make it rather difficult for us to keep organised, while their mind-whammied thralls probably won't be that affected by panic.

>>43127668
>>No fires

No fires then.

Next question, who is going to lead the stealth force?

Zo'rok also only has 1 Command.
Considering that this is about who leads the team in question, that the other members are going to be way less stealthy than the leader and that the group may include people from new clans, I'm pretty sure the 2/2 is better than 3/1 in Stealth/Command.

>>43128006

>>43128564
Did you just reply to me in the wrong thread?

While your warriors are raring to go, you have them move back a little into the jungle instead, spending several hours lashing together makeshift bridges and shields. While there's some grumbling, you ignore it, you want enough warriors left to launch more raids in the future, you won't get anywhere if you let them all throw their lives away stumbling into enemy fire.

With that done, you outline your plan to your lieutenants. Zo'rok and fifty of your orcs will creep round to the far side of the clearing, and with the main force serving as a distraction, they'll slip over the wall and start raising hell. If all goes according to plan, that will be the time for your main force to strike. Your warbeasts should make short work of the walls, then you can flood the compound with your warriors. From there it should be easy enough to overpower the defenders, though you're sure to reinforce several times over to your lieutenants the importance of bringing down the lamia commanders, you know all too well how easily magic can turn the tide of a battle.

By the time your warriors have finished preparing for the assault, Zo'rok has gathered up a force of the raiding party's stealthier orcs, including Vor'zal and, with your permission, K'zala.

“Give me a half hour to get this lot into position, then start moving, I'll hear you,” Zo'rok nods with a smirk.

You grin, slapping your old friend on the shoulder, K'zala lingering by your side for a few long moments before she sneaks off after the rest of the group.

Time passes as you lurk in the jungle. You think the sun will be up in a few hours, a good time for a raid.

“Right, let's move,” you command, your warriors eagerly falling into step and marching through the undergrowth. They seem to be enjoying the opportunity to do away with stealth, shouting, bellowing, the stormhorns smashing a path of destruction right through the smaller plantlife. Now it's just up to Zo'rok to do his part.

(cont)

>>43128585
You are Zo'rok, lieutenant of the Stonetusk Clan, and if you don't mind saying so yourself, you're pretty damn good at what you do. 'Course you've never done anything quite this complicated before, but life's all about new experiences, right? That's why the gods invented so many different species of women to fuck.

Ur's main force have taken their role as attention getters to heart, you can hear them all too clearly from here, roaring for blood. It does the job well enough, and as you watch, the majority of the guards on the wall start to move over towards the disturbance. Sloppy, should've accounted for a distraction, but you're not complaining.

You give a silent gesture for the rest of the group follow as you skulk up to the foot of the wall in a gap between the torches. There's still a few guards patrolling around this side of the compound's walls, but even they seem to be more interested in what's going on at the front than doing their jobs here.

Your orcs bring forward some of the makeshift bridges, laying them down carefully over the pit. With the sentries still none the wiser you slip up next to the wall, your warriors starting to toss grappling hooks up to scale the uneven wood. You're first over the wall, and first to see the strange interior of the dragon cultists' compound. Countless tents surround a large central structure, a great wooden building far larger even than Ur's hut, the exterior carved wall to wall with dragons and snakes and all that junk, heaps of skulls piled up at the foot of the large open doorway.

This is no time for you to be staring though, as one of the guards finally turns their attention to you, a dusky-skinned human woman caught in a moment of wide-eyed shock as she spots you. You know the moment won't last unfortunately, but you've practiced for moments like this, and with one fluid motion you slip a dart into your blowpipe, bringing it to your lips and sending a dart into the shocked female's neck. She crumples to the ground, limbs twitching as she desperately tries to make her body do what she wants it to. She'll live, would've been a waste to kill that one, but the stumpweed squeezings mean it'll be at least twenty minutes before she's got enough control over her body to shout for help.

More and more of your warriors join you atop the barrier, quickly bringing down a few other guards loitering about, though it takes a little while to get all of them up the ropes (except for Vor'zal, show-off priest just scampers right up it like a monkey or something).

So Zo'rok, what now?

Reduce their combat power while having little risk to ourselves. Fighting the boss ourselves seems foolhardy. From there we can work into attacking the front walls.

Can we knock some wall supports away from the inside?

>>43129043
The wall's pretty sturdy, it would take some time.

Motherfuckers the plan was to go straight for the leaders.

>>43128979
>Push straight for the big structure in the middle, whoever is in charge will probably be there

Everyone doing the exact opposite of the plan agreed to with the outside force.

Zo'rok could get in trouble for this ya know.

>>Go down into the tents and start raising hell with the non-combatants and warriors still arming themselves
Maybe have Vor'zal scout out the central structure? He has like Stealth 5

>>43129099
While that wasn't the plan I intended, you're right, I'll change >>43129102 to
>Push straight for the big structure in the middle, whoever is in charge will probably be there
But try to get our warriors to take down any commanders meanwhile, the big boss probably won't be someone we can take out if we don't get a couple perfect stealth dart off.

So are you all wanting to go ahead with having Vor'zal split off and check out the structure in the middle?

>Yes
>No

>>43129213
>Yes

>>43129213
>No

A single priest fucking around with their sanctum?
That seems all kinds of stupid.

We're here to make sure the rest of our raid gets inside without dying in droves by distracting the enemy, so that is what we should be concentrating on.

>>43129213
>Yes

>>43129213
>Yes

>>43129213
