<<Check supplies and skills>>
<<Plan guard points and weak areas.>>
<<Ready anti fae weapons.>>

> You forgot 4/20! Quick, smoke all the weed you can!!!

<<Check supplies>>



You check your supplies. Your makeshift chariot is outfitted with a supply of Short Spears, Slings,
and Slingstones.

<<...>>



<<...>>



You set off to the rally point.

Look at the stars - is it a new moon since it's so dark? That would make sense for a Fae sneak attack, and even more sense for this anti-fae sneak counterattack.

<<...>>



The combined forces of Ácruan stand at the ready, steeling themselves for the battle
to come.

<<...>>



<<...>>



You ready up at the right flank, where the river narrows and shallows into an easily
forded creek. You distance yourselves from the ranks of infantry for maneuvering
room.

<<Look at the stars - is it a new moon since it's so dark?>>



Quite the opposite actually, the moon is quite full. The gathered warriors look off to the
horizon and watch the luminescent orb rise over the hills; it's light too bright and the
night too young for the distant stars to show.

<<Tides of this planet: Be seriously intense.>>
<<Party: Begin war prep. Poison coating arrows, stringing bows, good things.>>
<<Huffington: Continue to empty national dwarven gold reserves with large semi-legal bets.>>

<<Tides of this planet: Be seriously intense.>>

SpoilerShow

I've read that the moon actually only affects high and low tide, whereas the winds, currents, and tectonic shenanigans cause the waves.

All: Behold the Fae approaching.

Really? I was unaware of that. Neat ^^

<<All: Behold the Fae approaching.>>



The forms of the encroaching Fae appear out of the night, rushing towards Ácruan.

<<...>>



You speed towards the enemy, preparing to pepper and harass their infantry as the skirmish
begins.
