Loose Ends
I am in the process of sorting through first posts, but I will first, in the interests of organization, address some points so that they need not be re-stated when the game begins.
I do have a sort of "Game Plan" but I like to think of it as guidelines rather than rules. I would like to say, though, that I think there will be about 5-7 days alotted for Battle-In-Fornost Posts. I won't be moving the game along much, except at one or two points, and I am mostly going to let the battle rage, hands-off, for the week. The only things that must happen are: the Rearguard must be pushed back and the whole group of refugees unite at the inner sanctum and begin to flee. At that point, when all characters have reached the inner sanctum, I'll post another "moving post" and allow for reactions, and so on. From that point, I'll let others move the game along more freely.
Things must be done, of course. Carthor must be attended to, for he seems to be in a precarious situation, Lissi, Renedwen, Faerim, and Brander must somehow get through the battle, which has overtaken their level, and either get to the Rearguard or the Inner Sanctum. The Elven Emissaries must rendez-vous with Mellonar who is (by the way), the minister in charge of Foreign Relations, at the King's Hall. The soldiers have to retreat, and the politicians and VIPs (Mitharan, Ereglin, Bethiril, Erenor) must see to the evacuating people, and do what they can to keep the city from exploding in anarchy.
And, to make matters worse, a new and exponentially more evil combatant is about to enter the playing field.
Once I have the order of posts done, I'll also finish a post to go after all of those, which will be the first "real" post of the game, to be put up as soon as the game opens. Then, the game can begin, and the battle can end...over the course of a week.
P.S. I hafta say, I'm definately very hyped about this game, and I hope you all will enjoy it as much as I plan to, if not more.
