Dwarven War Games

---

As you walk through the Dwarven Nation of Karik, you notice a note upon the board. You walk forward, and begin to glance over the notes.

Hello, Dwarves, fellows of Karik, and warriors! I am happy to introduce to you today, a plan that I have been planning for many months. For a long while, the Dwarven armies have been limited to training in war time! We do not often get the chance to train, but I am wishing to change that. I wish to bring a new age to the fighting styles of the Dwarves, and for us to become the fearsome race we truly are!

As you know, we do not currently have any areas in which we can train. I propose four different battles to take place - Plain combat, and Castle combat. They explain themselves fairly well; Plain combat shall be between two warriors fighting on flat ground, with the occasional hill and slight craters. Castle combat shall be a small fort constructed, in which the attacking squad must attack. For the Castle Combat, the attackers and defenders shall switch their positions.

Equipment to be used

Castle Combat

Attackers

Armor - None

Weapons - Stone Axes | Stone Swords

Time

I am hoping to have these once every 8 month, as it will keep us fit. [ Hopefully every Saturday, at around 6PM EST ]

Other Information

I will need the approval of all the lords before this is to take place, so please, inform your Clan Lords!

- Tognik Grandaxe

[Nefarious Aus Shitpost 891]

Stone Weapuns? Nae, ah fink we shuld use wuud. I can provoide leaver armur tuu.

[Aryon 679]

Tognik shrugs slightly, as he looks at the Dwarf. "Wud i' is. Bu' we nae need t'at lea'er armor."

[Zezimus 1523]

As Valen is making his way through the Grandaxe district of Kal'Karik, he tilts his head towards a parchment, pinned up against the notice board. He nods as he reads over what the notice has to say and turns around, noticing Tognik standing nearby. He places his hand over the Dwarf's shoulder and speaks close to his ear.

"Ah foine oidea lad, ah can recall in t'e uld days under Grand King T'orik, weh would train amungs' t'e ruins uv Wrath's Clutch. Ye beh seemin' tae 'ave a similar oidea 'ere, ah 'ope tae see it work well wit' t'e new military plans. Weh 'ave plenteh uv resources tae put intae trainin' sessions, ah suggest ye speak wit' meh brudder, Bazian n' 'e will 'opefulleh supply ye wit' wut ye need."

[Aryon 679]

Tognik nods at the words of Valen, scanning the sentences, as he remains silent for a few moments. He then smiles slightly, as he replies to the words of Valen.

"Dat is t'e beau'y; Weh nae need many ma'erials, as S'one is common, an' wud is tu. I' is a goo' compromise, as i' doesn' need much Minas ta supply."

[Snake Plissken 637]

Grimrick looks over the notes with interest.

"Looks gud ta meh. Toime ta crack sum bluddeh skulls!"

He then realises that the games are against other dwarves, causing his happiness to diminish slightly from his lack of motivation to harm another of his own kind, but still not completely due to his love for battle.

[Raglin 64]

Raglin nods at the idea.

"Per'aps the defenders should use bows an' rubba tipped arrahs." ((Low level archers))

[Bob_Stonefoot 5]

*Bob Notices the note and hastily reads it and mutters to himself*

"Fine idea that be, finally get tuh practice me skills in combat, 'sted ov standin 'round all day"

*with that he continues on with his day*

[Morkas (Wrathstar555) 34]

Morkas walks up to the message, and shakes his head, then says to himself,

"It dunnae matter 'ow much ye train de dwarves, we're drunkards whu cannae preform de simplest uv tasks! Try all ye loik, it dunnae work. Kjell tried it, an look 'ow dat werked out."

Morkas, after voicing his opinion, heads off to the tavern, seeking dwarves who are thirsty for ale.

[Aryon 679]

Tognik growls, looking at the man.

"If ye t'ink dat, t'en i' is so! We can 'rain, an' i' will prove effec'ive! Bu' we jus' need willin' men to train wit'!

[Morkas (Wrathstar555) 34]

Morkas, upset that he was called lazy, says,

"Lad, ah dunnae 'ave ah problem wif trainin'. Matter ah fact, ah'll be sure tah be at all uv 'em. But ah just dunnae fink it'll werk come war toim."

[Aryon 679]

Tognik sighs slightly, glancing at the man, not meaning to come off angrily.

"Lad, we need to ge' some formation in our armies. We have constantly been devas'ated by ot'er armies, for we simply charge in and hope for t'e bes'. I' doesn't work, I tell ye, and we must change i'. I am tryin' my bes' ta change such a fac', bu' believe meh, i' is 'ard.

[Jakesimonson 691]

*Sighs as he reads the note*

All t'ese Dwarfs tryin' tu do me job, Ah will nay 'ave it.

[Raglin 64]

Aye dis be Grimlot's job.
