@redzkz Thanks for the feat, yeah, if anything too big is tried with a tier, I will limit them to the power of that tier regardless of the character for fairness.

Also, there is one slot left if you want it.

@chronicplane: 'Mass' mind control is not allowed, no. Clarified further in the rule section. You can squabble over small groups of undead in critical positions, but you cannot 'mass' mind control even something that is summoned.

@chronicplane: I would assume such creatures would be bound incredibly tightly, so no, it wouldn't be something I let happen. I meant fight over sections of zombies and skeletons, lol, not large monsters.

@wut: so I don't get what I am upposed to do honestly.

I am supposed to have a bunch of lower level troops fighting other lower level troops (Pawns), then higher class of street levelers (Knights) combating each other, and having a possible High Tier as a Tier X? (King)

Then simply develop a strategy through formation coordination that I feel will be most successful?

@morleericks: Lol no, so you and your opponent won't be speaking to one another.

There will be two PMs, one with me and you, one with me and them. I will be creating battlemap and placing your troops on said battlemap (using a program I have for it) based on how you want them deployed, you will then tell me where you want them to move, what you want them to do, etc, I will move them on the map according to your wishes and moving the opponent's forces as he/she wishes. Your men/zombies will clash. Depending on unit strength, strength of the unit, the situation, etc, I will write what is happening.

This is not about you needing to throw out feats in a CaV, this tourney is all about your ability to build good army compositions and command them. Don't worry about needing to do anything yet, half of the players haven't made their armies yet.

@morleericks: Lol I would allow Achilles but your theme would have to change to warriors and myths of antiquity rather then forces of the undead. Could bring Roman Legions, Spartans, Myrmidon, Persian immortals, Armenian Cataphracts, as well as myth units like the Minotaur, Hydra, Gorgon, Jason of the Argonauts, etc.

@major_hellstorm: You don't really need to post feats for fodder and what not, lol. Depending on what they are armed with and their guessed 'training' we give them a tier and that is 'roughly' how good they are. XD So you can use any fantasy you want, tell me about their equipment, purpose, etc, and I could tell you the tier.

@wut: Yes, true, but I can't name 1,000 of them.

My theme would change but not to peak human. I think movie Achilles is subtly superhuman but can still die like anyone else.

He would fit what? Tier 4?

@morleericks:You don't have to name your fodder. You can use named mythological characters and then just use 'fodder' historical units to back them up from ancient times. I already listed a bunch. XD

Achilles.. mmm, using movie Achilles? He is super human in terms of skills, reflexes and strength, however, his equipment is low enough that he won't be Tier VI, so, you could get away with Tier V, so the cost of a dismounted plate knight which is a fair trade I feel, for Troy movie Achilles. (The guy was able to decapitate a solid metal statue with a swing sword swing after all and his spear throw was ridiculous.)

EDIT: Kratos would not be allowed

@major_hellstorm You got it. If you need any help finding a faction or brainstorming troops or ideas, feel free to pm me.

@major_hellstorm: Jurassic Park Dinosaurs? Yeah. Or you could do lizardmen from Warhammer:

:D Where you can have Dinosaur's riding other Dinosaurs dressed up in an Aztec theme.

Loading Video...

Fodder benders would be allowed, but they would count as magic users and so be very expensive point-wise.

@paragonnate: Do you have any feats I can look at? Gut reaction says Tyrande will probably be Tier XIII while Malfurion will probably be Tier IX.

Wish I'd kept my copy of the War of the Ancients trilogy so I could give you direct quotes but I'll list some feats that I remember.

Malfurion has, created weapons from various plant materials that are as strong or stronger than metal (made a sword out of a leaf that was able to cut through Fel Guards with ease and made an axe out of a tree branch that was even better). Possessed various animals directly so he could see through their eyes and gather intel or make them perform more complicated tasks. Commanded various animals to attack or swarm enemies. Commanded trees/any plant he felt like to grab/entangle/outright kill enemies, had tree and plant roots erupt from the earth and rip dozens of Fel Guards apart, had trees watch over him while he slept, they reached down and grabbed any would be intruders with their branches. Turned a handful of burs and sticker seeds multiply into the hundreds and had the wind blow these hundreds of small spiky seeds into the oncoming demon army then had the seeds grown to unnatural size and impale/kill demons with their barbs that were now strong enough to punch through demon armor because magic. His most impressive feat is when he thought Tyrande had been killed and due to his connection with the natural world generated a hurricane powerful enough to wipe the current forces of the Burning Legion (including Archimonde) who were numerous enough to cover the entire landscape off the map. He had to be told to calm down by Krasus lest he wipe out the Night Elf forces as well. All that happened because he was angry/grieving.

All of that was young Malfurion, who had been learning from Cenarius for a few months IIRC. He's had 10K years to practice now. IIRC he stopped a good portion of the Cataclysm cause by Deathwing (a massive super hurricane) from collapsing the west coast of Kalimdor into the sea. He generated smaller more controlled storms to deal with an invading Naga army and his senses extend to the entirety of the natural world. IIRC when Arthas (might have been Illidan it's been a long time since I played Warcraft 3) was performing a ritual in Northrend that was causing massive damage to the continent itself Malfurion felt the land being damaged as if it was his own flesh and knew exactly where the ritual was taking place because of it. He also knew were demons of the Burning Legion were through the desolation to the natural world they caused.

Tyrande I don't know as much about but she has a Batman's utility belt of powers thanks to being Elune's favorite. She's generated holy moonlight to hurt/outright kill demons and undead. Generated shields of similar light that stopped nearly any attack, healed wounds IIRC. Called down falling stars/beams of moonlight to harm opponents, especially undead and demons. She's also stood alone against a Scourge army and soloed them off screen due to her various holy powers. She's also an amazing shot with a bow and is a skilled general/commander with 10K years of experience commanding both the Temple of Elune and the Sentinels.

@paragonnate: Young, not enraged Malfurion is Tier VIII since most of his feats aren't impressive enough to make me say tier IX since he was usually only killing small 'squads' of beings, from the look of it. (Was Illidan doing that), Mature Malfurion you could fit in at tier IX.

Tyrande would be tier IX since her fighting the scourge was off screen and.. so not super pertinent without knowledge on how she did it or how many scourge were there. Most of her powers are 'smaller' scale, and 'starfall' is more calling down bolts of light then actual stars (if they were, they wouldn't have a planet anymore), but because starfall can have a decent range and so effect hundreds of people, she gets bumped up to tier IX because 'AoE' is more important, here, then potency of individual spells.

@chronicplane: I think it has magnificent horde potential. My undead army is more getting designed as a infinite respawn army of reasonably competent skeletal troops through Val'kyr, the Lich King himself and Deathknights

Im not too keen on revealing my plans for Kil'jaden just yet. Although if you want to know what it is, look up the 7.2 trailer for World of Warcraft

I don't know how many insects are allowed in a single unit, so I'm assuming that they are just going by the amount that equals the weight of a human soldier

Elder Scrolls Battlemages (1000 pts)4343,000

@xlr87t3:If you are going to take Scouts! don't take any other perks yet. Because thanks to Scout, you can change your army comp, and perks, when you are told whom you are facing so it really lets you tailor your army. (Mind, once I tell you, you cannot change Scouts! until next round).

If you have ideas for perks you think would be a good addition, you are welcome to suggest them! I thought I had a good mix that made you really think about your choices and what you felt your army needed most.

Swarms of insect size depends on the insect in question. Locust or swarms of ants? Yeah, about the same as a human (and that can be incredibly lethal).

@decaf_wizard: They can raise people back from the dead just as they have always been capable of doing. But considering it took three Val'kre sacrificing themselves to resurrect someone like Sylvanas, keep that in mind as if they push themselves too hard, they will die.

You mean raise resurrected heroes and characters of note into Death Knights? No reason they couldn't. Standard fatigue applies to that. They would be Tier VII.

Matches are completely random. Will be rolling to see whom goes up against whom (reaaaaallly hope we don't get an undead vs undead because, god, that would be boring.)

EDIT: Also, if you intend to have him being able to summon an entire fleet, that would put him above Tier X and not able to be used.

@darthsenju:Yeah! I never see anyone using his characters, so I thought I would give it a try. There are so many different armies that could be made. I could have used the Arridi, Rangers, and Skandians, or Morgaraths army and Skandians, or even the Temujai who I thought were awesome in the books.

@wut: Well, what about food and supplies? Every army needs those. And the critters aren't much for brains, so how are they being controlled? I know that a bunch of bugs or rats would sooner attack me than the enemy.
