The Siege of Oceansford: Open War for the Mighty

OoC: I have finally decided that this would be a fun idea; a siege on a castle, ending in a bloody one-on-one battle with the Castle's lord. I aim to play the role of the Lord and castle's army, and my challengers will take on the role of attacking armies and lords. Your army may be as sizable as you'd like, and your Lord may be of any nature; in fact, you may choose a character of your own if you desire, just to have the attacking general be somebody more than just a king with a blade at his side. I request that any takers be more experienced at the usual Gunjin workings, as this type of thing requires more skill in narrative than a regular one-on-one battle. Note that the challengers will eventually breach the walls, and have the option of killing anybody in the castle. This is a good chance for the challenger to write as many gory death scenes or one-off battles as he or she would like, and I'll gladly indulge small skirmishes among soldiers as side-plots to the final, full-scale one-on-one. The fun of this is the benefit of raiding, destroying, and fighting, as well as having the option to be personally running multiple battles in-topic. Hell, use as many characters as you'd like, and invite somebody to join you in the battle against my Oceansford keep. I myself will post the 'intro' as soon as the first of the armies accepts.

Note: Any other 'overlord' can add his army to the attacking army at any time. I will have a full list of 'important' soldiers that you may challenge, and will likely invite a friend or two to add their own soldiers to my defense. Any extra joiners can at any time decide between aiding the defense of the castle or aiding the offense. Anything goes in terms of armies, but since this is a classic, crenelated-walls-and-towers castle with archers and swordsmen as defense, try to stave away from the use of incredibly futuristic weaponry or deus ex machinas. Catapults, battering rams, ballistas, trebuchets; its all fair game. I'll even allow for cannons. Just no LAZERS PEW PEW

Before we start, I'd like to take early tally of who's in from the very start, and from there I'll write my intro. Anyone can join past the first five on-topic posts by anyone in the topic. Again, your army and soldiers can be any character of your creation, or even for the fun of it, a pre-existing character. I originally intended to 'reveal' who the king was, but I've forgotten who I wanted to use. So I'll probably do that right off instead.

also, you can pre-sign as an ally if you so desire.

Enemy Armies:
Tazy
A Traveller
Speed
VGA
1-up
Vapor

Allies:
Repster (if he's still around)


To horse, men!
