Maginican Invasion

Winfred Mason · 30th October 2007, 04:42 PM

A poster is placed in every city loyal to the crown, and carries the stamp of the Kingdom.

Citizens of Britannia!

Earlier tonight, a corrupted moongate appeared
in the City of Maginica, and monsters from
the deepest dungeons of Sosaria poured out.

A ferry service to the island has opened at the Trinsic Docks.
We advice all civilians to stay away from the island for their own safety.

If you are able to carry arms, the Guard is in need of
your help to defend the town.

Citizens! Stay united, or we will fail!
Maginica shall not fall under our protection.

For the Kingdom,

Baron Fairholm

It seems this was issued by the BNN late last night:

Quote:

Victory cheers rang throughout Magincia today as hundreds of daemons met a swift end at the hands of the city’s militia. The mayor issued a short statement:

“This morning I was apprised of an unexpected and unprovoked invasion of daemons near the moongate. My staff and I immediately surveyed the battlefield, and our excellent field commanders were quick to repel the invasion and defend our city’s borders. A few residents are reporting minor structural damages, but we’re reporting no loss of life. I’m proud of the way our militia handled themselves, and have politely declined offers of assistance from the mainland government. At this time I would like to reiterate that while there may be a few daemons left to hunt down, there is no major, sustained threat to the city. This so-called ‘invasion’ is over.”

Magical methods of travel still remain unavailable, however, and the Magincia moongate appears to have ceased functioning altogether. The BNN will be sending Sherry the Mouse, our intrepid field investigator, to the scene tomorrow.

and take note people.

The first casualties of the berzerkers were ALL the healers (THE NPCS!!!!) and the bank staff.

If the spawn gets too thick for someone to rez, you have to run BACK TO TRINSIC, rez at the healer half-way across town, and run back.

Devs, any chance of some healers being put on Trinsic docks to handle incoming battle casualties?

When I am in game I will locate at Trinsic docks [Europe] to rezz people,I will also have some resources with me in a chest.

Please dont be greedy ,bandies are in bundles of 100's ,so just take one bundle at a time,thanks

Note: This invasion evolves over time. What you see today is not what you'll be dealing with tomorrow. In fact, today's battle may be over sooner than you might expect...

This is just the initial part, scaled appropriately for different shard populations. This stage will end soon, as we enter a very short "calm before the storm."

If you see "Andrew the Servant", you know that you've done well so far. Oh, and don't stand next to him.

Well I beleive the mayor may have under estimated the situation as it is now three days of continous invasion by these deamons. Allthough the local militia has performed well, they will be needing reinforcements if this is to become a war of attrition.
If it were not for good hearted citizens across Sosaria lending a hand tonight, the good major would be a refugee this very eve.

Was good to see yourself Lady Flame and Lord Mhor at Magincia last night in the defense of the City.

our thanks.

Things have really heated up in Magincia this eve, many are fighting but its all they can do to stand let allown push it back. These are indeed terrible times and I fear its going to get worse before it gets any better. A few points to remember.

1. They have control of a moongate so nowhere is safe if Magincia falls so can anywhere, so everyone who can should defend our lands.

2. The invasion must be pushed back in order of spawning (last area to spawn clear first). If everything is removed in latest area to spawn it should not respawn and you can push it onto the next area. Yes this includes the red rabbits. (Also if anything is trapped in building/underground page a GM to remove it if it stays the area will respawn). (This is going on how the Ophaidian spawn worked).

3. Work as a team for good against evil, putting any other differances to one side till this is over, you may need there help if the invasion continues into your homelands. You dont have to start liking each other, just hate this invasion more than you hate each other.

4. Dont think you cannot help if you are unfit for battle, many need medical assistance, as well as just standing at a distance healing those in the frount line, Sosaria need everyone able to do the great or the small equaly

Serious fighting on the streets of Magincia this evening. I'm sure some foolish magicians must be carrying blackrock around with them as I witnessed the most evil of creatures appear before my eyes, a blackrock infected Dark Father. I wonder at some folks loyalties! Was impressed with the bravery of several guardsman who repeatedly through themselves into the fray.
However the battle seemed to hang in the balance this eve. I was forced to withdraw as fatique set in after fighting for many hours, so I hope to hear good news tomorrow.

Fellow guardsmen of Trinsic and guardsmen of the King's Guard,

Tomorrow, Friday, at 8:00 pm GMT / 21:00 CET,
a joint loyalist effort to keep back the invading forces
in Maginica will gather at the Market Place in Trinsic.

Any citizens able to carry arms are urged to assist in
the defense of the town. Bring lots of bandages,
potions and whatever else you may need to survive.

For the Kingdom,

Edmund Fairholm
