10 STEP PLAN TO SAVE THE WORLD!!
RESCUE THE PIRATE PRINCE
- Work to "save" the Norfall House of the Corbron Isles by helping the Pirate Prince be freed from a coven of Succubi that have control of the isles. Once rescued, ask him to rally the Pirate Princes into a fleet.
RALLY THE RADIERS
- With the Pirate Prince's aid, try to contact and to organize with Roland's Raiders (of the Redgard House) to see that Norfall House is helping and rally Roland to gather their guerilla forces with the Snow Elves that they have contact with.
ALLIANCE OF MEN AND ELVES
- Try to unite an alliance between the resistance villages in the Gammarilian Delta and the Elves of the Erethor, to take out the elf plague carriers. NOTES: the Witch Council just set loose to go into the north to infect orcs, unfortunately it's a desperate plan that will likely commit genocide and come back on the elves.... The Witch Queen finally decided to use these plagued elves to do this because the Whisperer is failing her people. These plague ridden elves have a horrible disease that kills any of "fey" blood in weeks. A group of these plagued villagers now ride north (around the burning line) toward the uppermost Norther Marches, to infect the Orcs, being replaced by their guard warriors (the Arrows - an elite delta force of elves led by Ossion of the Hamlet) who ride with them as they die themselves from the plague.
IF/Once these forces are rallied...
SEIGE FALLPORT
- By sending in the Pirate Prince ships "fleet" from the south, while at the same time having Roland's Raiders and Elves come in on Fallport from the North by land. The hope is to take Fallport and command full control of the Pellurian Sea for the moment. NOTES: "Fallport was once the capital city of House Norfall. When the city fell, its princes took to the Pelluria with what remained of the Norfall navy and continue to resist the Shadow on the open sea. Built in a deep cove set in the midst of high sea cliffs on the northern shore of the Sea of Pelluria. The cove makes a good harbor, and the natural lay of the land made the unique construction of Fallport possible. Fallport is now abandoned by its original inhabitants, but its many underground dwellings were quick to attract an orc population. Now, the city is the southernmost settlement of orc noncombatants in the Northlands. There are perhaps 10,000 members of the Gray Mother tribe living in Norfall, and the city’s shipyard and docks have become important elements in the orc war effort. Human slaves live packed into the waterfront warehouses and are forced to work as fishermen, ship builders, and dock workers by whip-wielding goblin overseers."
OCCUPY FALLPORT
- while there for the several days it would take any Shadow armies to come in to retake it - they blowup Fallport's mirror. Making a plan to rig a hole in the Shadow Temple so the sun will hit the mirror at high noon... While their army (the Raiders and the Pirates) retreat into the sea. Hopefully taking out some Shadow armies when the mirror explodes.
SEIGE STEEL HILL
- Make landfall soon after with Roland's Raiders and the Snow Elves marching on Steel Hill. Trying to seige Steel Hill. Because Steel Hill is at "the heart of the Enemy's army, a dark forge where slaves and sorcerers labor day and night to equip the orcish hordes with weapons, armor, and equipment."
BLOCKADE BADEN'S BLUFF
- While the land army marches on Steel Hill, the Pirate Prince navy sails to put a blockade on Baden's Bluff (to cut troop movement)
RAID THE ARTERIES
- With this happening the PCs rush to the Arteries (Ardherin's laboratories) to try and rescue Whisper Adepts that are being corrupted to corrupt the Whisper which is failing Aradil and quickly becoming the biggest problem of the elves ever...
DESTROY FALLPORT
- The destruction of Fallport slows/stops the flow of Armor/Weapons and supply lines from Steel Hill to the Gammarillian Front. With the Blockade on Baden's Bluff would stop Shadow troop movement.
NUTRALIZE THE WRATH
- The Enemy's BIG-GUN is Zardrix. But Adam and Andrew seem to recall that *something* has held her off at bay before. If you can figure out what THAT is they can use it to protect those seiges/forces from the Wrath of Shadow's dragon fury.
QUESTIONS to Consider
- What would the Shadow do?
- What would the various Night Kings be told to do?
- What armies would rush to retake these places?
- Which Orc Generals would be told to go do this? Grial? One of his Commanders? Jahzir himself?
- What would the other Night Kings be doing?
- Are there other major supply lines to consider?
- Is Fallport, Steal Hill and Baden's Bluff as important as my PCs are thinking?
- How much resistance would their be at Fallport? At Steel Hill?
- Would Baden's Bluff work with the Pirate Prince's blockade?
- What other Shadow forces?
- What other Shadow cities would be involved with these actions?
