Warzone 4: The Lonely Mountain Rumble --- Battle Thread (DUE MARCH 29t

[SkaForHire]

There had been a few concerns about two larger challenges in a row, so I thought I would add an additional small challenge for those who want to focus on details / figs.

Warzone 4: The Lonely Mountain Rumble

Location: H9

Who Can Participate: All Factions

Terrain: Volcanic, recently erupted, Erexhi, or the Lone mountain, has many communities that used to sit at its base. The high peak used to catch condensation from the rare cloud, and water would trickle down to the base. It is unclear if this still happens. The land at the base is volcanic rock, mixed with sand. Much of the territory has to be fed by merchant caravans from the South Coast, as foodstuffs rarely grow. With limited grass, livestock is in shortage also.

History: The Lone Mountain, or Lonely Mountain, has always been a fixture in Kaliphlin heritage. The first Kaliphlin coins known to historians had a Pharaoh on one side, and the mountain on the other. In coat of arms, sometimes the Kaliphlin Lion is perched upon a background of the Lone Mountain. There was even a religion, seldom practiced today, dedicated to the mountain as a creator figure. Today, or at least until half of the mountain’s top blew off a few months ago, it hosts a vibrant set of villages and towns, who rely on it to catch water. The lord of the region, who represents all the towns and villages here, is Lord Abrim Kar’dani. With the recent outbreak of Civil War, he tried to stay completely neutral. However, as all of the food providing regions were snagged up by different powers, it has become evident that he needs to side with one of the powers in order for what towns that are left in the region to survive. He has come up with a unique way to do this – a call to the bravest champions to fight for his land.

Mini-challenge: Lord Kar’dani is like any Kaliphlin lord, he wants to survive and he wants to make money. He sees an opportunity for both. He has made a general appeal to all three sides to bring their strongest champions to Bella’Erezhi, his town, to fight in a general mass melee. The side who survives will receive his pledge. Bella’Erezhi has been half destroyed by the Great Disturbance, so a part of the town has been marked off as the “Fighting Zone.” Anyone leaving the zone after they enter will be disqualified, but aided if in need. The last side standing wins the zone. Builders should create a MOC that depicts the mass melee in Bella’Erezhi, their faction should be winning. Since this is a vignette challenge, this will probably be a one on one battle, but if you can fit more participants than that, that is fine.

Restrictions: The MOCer will create a vignettes of no more than 8x8studs. Limited overhang is acceptable. No height restrictions. Don’t worry about throwing flags / banners in if you don’t have room.

JUDGING: Figure "look" and posing will be considered as a judging criteria for the vote.

Due Date: March 29^th

When posting a link to your entry to each battle thread, make sure you note which zone you are picking as the next warzone if you win. You may want to coordinate with others from your faction.

WZ4, HC VS DK

Nobles, cavaliers, and gentry made up a huge section of the initial High Council support. Ever since the Civil War broke out, propaganda has been issued by both the Desert King and the Ulandians about how far away the aristocrats are from the common Kaliphlinite, and how little such people cared about the way the war would affect their farms, their wells, and all the ways they work to live. Ulandus and the King alike have tried to cast themselves as the champions of the common people, with the Council in the role of the moustache-twirling elite.

Well, some of these elites believe pretty strongly in matters of honor. The rich and titled swordsmen called "Bravos" invented the heavily ritualized and pseudo-artistic system of duelling as a way to settle such things. This particular Bravo, Jakon Keros, comes to Bella'Erezhi fully intending to teach the High Council's enemies some proper manners. With his weight leaning on his back-foot, he looks nervous and unsure of himself, like the slightest pressure from his Desert Mummy adversary will send him tripping to the ground.

But as with most things refined, looks seldom tell the whole story.

BUILDER'S NOTE: I didn't make a thread for this. Hopefully that's okay.
