[Indeed, hence the smoke was coming from the north - Erabor]

[And I resent that implication that demons come from the Void! The Void is, well, the Void. It's... Void. That's the point of the Void. Demons come from Hades, Cereberus, the lower energy planes in general. The Void is.. special. And demon-free]

( hmmm the void is the void? or maybe the void is the void because the void became the void which became the void is that right? )

{We have a navy?}

"Delran, take your airships and harass the incoming enemy.
The are coming from the north west. I want half of the eastern, southeastern and southern defenders to move to the western, northewestern and northern walls immediately.
Drakonius, I leave the Drakonions to be used as you see fit.
Eskar, have the 12th legion reinforce the northwestern wall."

sir! look coming from the south its strange airships! Zryike comes to see the commotion and looks at the airships...

"Don't fire! their other mages! They land and greet Zryike while they give the 200 airships they came in to the army, their armament: 2 rapid fire crossbows on each wing and weak defense plating, each one carried 2 mages

inventory so far 4 troops and stuff:

402 mages including master mages

1000 drakonions

6000 Eraborians

2000 orcs

2000 Serpentians

500 trolls

5000 elves

1000 hobbits

2000 Tigarians

1000 monkey warriors

500 heavy airships under Mights command

300 heavy and 200 light airships under Delrans command

50 commandos and I cant seem to count the number of ships

{Thanks Zryike, but I'll make a few improvements.

402 mages including master mages. Not including mages already in the ranks.

Numbers are approximate.

1000 drakonions

6000 Eraborians

2000 orcs

2000 Serpentians

500 trolls

5000 elves

1000 hobbits

2000 Tigarians

1000 monkey warriors

500 heavy airships under Mights command (Not here yet.)

300 heavy fighters and 200 light fighters under Delrans command (Note, I will now class Might's bigun's as Airships and the rest as Fighters, or Aircraft.)

50 commandos and I cant seem to count the number of ships???}

"Thank the heavens! Reinforcements! Half of you magi, go to the northern, western and southwestern walls. The other half, take your airships and place yourself under Delran's command. He is organizing a preemptive airstrike, so be ready to fight."

"Might? You're alive? We are in the citadel of Oceanus, come here as soon as possible, we're under attack. An army of 100 thousand demons are coming. I suspect that they'll send some undead at us after that."

[Commandos? Who brought the commandos?]

[And Zryike, just no. No. The Void is the Void, has always been, will always been. It was one of the few self-explanatory things in the universe, and breaches causality as it sees fit]

Verthias frowned as he saw the fighter-airships whizzing over the heads of him and his men in their dozens. The firepower on those things would be enough to flatten most cities: What was coming down from the north that needed this number of reinforcements?

He briefly considered jumping on board one of the ships, but decided against it. If he landed in the turbines, even he would not be able to avoid meeting a sticky end, and his men would certainly not be able to jump the four-hundred-meter plus distance. He decided to make all haste to the massive wall to the north. He conveyed the order to his men with a wave and a yell, and they set off at a run that he knew they could carry on all day.

( you did though you said it wasnt 50 I just made it that and the void thing i was making fun of because you kept saying weirdly ) ( once again how are the ground troops getting across if were on a island? ) Zryike walks up to Erunion. " should i teleport them sir?

* Another fact about Zryike his favorite spell is the teleport spell so thats why he popping up all over the place*

Jonas Topal goes into his tent and sleeps, awaiting orders.

{Teleport who? Who's running? We are currently in a city in the middle of a very, very large island. Verthias is running across the grass of this island, while the demons are just about finished crossing the water and will be here in force soon.}

[[OOC: A large fortress island with thirty foot thick inner walls and ten foot thick outer walls, along with enough food to give a hundred thousand men food for a year and enough housing to house an army of two hundred thousand...but don't increase the army too much, I like the idea of humanity being close to extinction XD. And Verthias is a demon, why do you want to help him?]]

{Yup. We've abandoned the outer walls, and demolished them. We are defending the inner walls right now.}

"Understood, Sir! I am on my way! Use the mages to give me orders. I am half human and half high elf, so I was raised to use magic."

*Delran turns to one of the mages:*

"Teleport me to the flag air ship please."

*Delran is teleported to the flag air ship and start giving commands.*

"All right men, our orders are to harras the enemy. We have 500 fighters, light and heavy. Signal to the fleet, follow the flag ship and engage the enemy from a safe distance, I do not want unnecessary casualties. Do not go too far from the main group, and do not engage them alone.Be ready to withdraw at my command!"

*The air ships are moving into battle formations. The signal to move out s given and the air fleet sets out to battle.*

{Might. Three waves of three hundred thousand demons each...
You've got to be joking. Three waves of Three hundred thousand undead with a few demons for stiffening, that's more reasonable.}

"Revenge, a good plan, but we'll need to kill the massive army of demons coming towards us first..."

( OOC: um revenge were going to attack when the attack on us is over )

Zryike all of a sudden appears beside Erunion " Sir me and my mages just did rain of ice could you come calculate the casualties? "

Hearing Might's request, Erunion creates an Eye in the Sky.
"You did considerable damage at the start, but after a few seconds they managed to shield themselves from it, Approximately 17 thousand demons are no where to be seen, so clearly they fell into the ocean."
"Verthias, if you are indeed a friend, and would be so willing, I advise that you place yourself on the northern wall."
Erunion prepared to teleport, but then turned and spoke to Verthias,
"One more thing, please refrain from destroying, in any way, shape or form any of my soldiers or civilians."
Having teleported back to the city, Erunion ordered all of his men to their places.
"The enemy have landed on our shores and will be here to attack in an hour. Ready yourselves!"

*The air fleet engages the enemy, just as they try to land on the shores of Oceania, slowing them and alowing High General Erunion to organize o better defense. The battle is tought, but the crews follow their commander's orders and engage the enemy in groups of 3 to 4 fighters. Under no circumstance, the groups do not get too far from the main battle group of 25 heavy fighters directly commanded by General Delran.*

[Erunion, you can send the navy to help me, it would create more havoc in their ranks, and I can destroy more demons. Also, I will withdraw only at your order. You will decide my casualties.]

{Zryike, I've always been a competent mage, an excellent fighter and a brilliant tactician. You and Silverscar are better mages than I am, so I've placed you in command of your individual segments, but I am still a very good mage.}
A ball of crystal flickered to life in the admirals cabin.
"Admiral, take your fleet and harass the demonic horde, but only use ranged weapons, do not directly engage."
Another such ball flickered to life in the Command Aircraft.
"General Delran, fight a retreating and a strafing action against the enemy. I want you to pull off then harass the flanks, stay high, drop potions. Avoid direct engagement, we cannot afford a high level of casualties."

The fighters had already lost twelve of the lighter craft and seven of the heavier.

*Delran imediately order the fighters to gain altitude and drop potions.*

"Allright men! New orders: Do not engage them directly, concentrate all attacks on their flank*beep* and run tactics. We have to buy more time. Use all available means to fight them."

*The fighters proceed to follow the orders. After gaining altitude, a rain of fire hit the center of the demon navy, and the fighters started to engage the flanks. Flying in zig-zag, in 3-4 fighters formation, they would hit any enemy in sight and then flee for safety near the main group. Any demon foul enough to get to close was killed instantly. Then the ships would hit the demons again and again.*

( OOC: um at the tops of page number 2 you say theres 100,000 coming not 200,000 )

( ok well there only 74389 demons left now )

( OOC: but we have to wait for this invasion to be over to be able o took provinces back right? )
