View Full Version : Team Ready, Aim, Fire! XXIII - Minas Tirith [round 1]



Lord Herman
2008-12-02, 05:54 PM
This is Team RAF, the team-based variant of RAF. You can find RAF Classic, the original, free-for-all version of the game, here.

Hello, and welcome to the twenty-third game of the team-based spin-off of Silkenfist's Ready, Aim, Fire!

The theme of this game will be the siege of Minas Tirith, one of the defining battles of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. The teams will be Gondor and Mordor.

Recruitment is open until Saturday, 18:00 GMT. If you want to join a specific team, please specify which one. If you don't specify a team, I will add you to a random team.

The Rules:
The basics of the game are explained in this comic (http://home.planet.nl/~hdgoede/tdg/StickArt/TeamRAF/Instructions.png).

Other rules:
- If you don't submit an action before the deadline, you time out. A time out is counted as an airshot. If you time out twice in a row, you die.
- You can send multiple actions in advance, but only do this when it's really necessary.
- The sign-up period is four days, and each round generally takes three days. When there are only a few players left, rounds take only two days, and I start writing as soon as I have all the actions.

I'll have to warn you, dallas, my narration will absolutely butcher the story of the battle of Minas Tirith.

But don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I've seen the movies a dozen times. And read the books at least as many times long before the movies were made.

Gods you had me worried before I read the white text....
And only a dozen of times? Shame on you...
Well I guess not everybody is as fanatic as I am.:smalltongue:

Hyozo
2008-12-03, 07:22 PM
And if you butcher it, I will haunt it over your head at the meet-up!

I think he'll probably have to. Gondor won in the books.

In as an animated siege weapon (trebuchet), preferably on Gondor, but definitely on the opposite side as Huyneo.
Anyone else think it's interesting that Firefox doesn't recognize trebuchet as a word?

Oh, wrong game? Nevermind then.

Lord Herman
2008-12-09, 08:20 AM
Gandalf and Bayar Baggins are standing on the battlements of Minas Tirith, overlooking the Pelennor Fields. The wizards points to the dark mountains on the horizon. "There lies Mordor," he says. "And right now, two brave hobbits, Sam and Bayar, are making their way to..." "I'm right here." "What?" "I'm right here." "Yes, I know, Pippin." "I'm not Pippin. I'm Bayar. You sent Pippin to Mordor, remember?" "Huh?" "You know, you told Pippin to go to Mordor to do something at that volcano? And then Merry went with him?" "Hold on, which of you was Bilbo's nephew?" "I am." "And who's got the ring?" "That'd be me." "Oh. Wait, so you are in fact here, while Pippin, who hasn't got the ring, is in Mordor?" "Yes, I think so." "Uhm..."

"Throw it into the fire!" shouts Merry. Pippin is standing at the edge of the caldera, looking at the magma below. "Let it go!" "Let what go?" asks Pippin. "The ring! You have to destroy the ring!" shouts Merry. "I haven't got it!" "What?" "I haven't got the ring! Bayar's got it!" "Then why did Gandalf send you here?" "I don't know, he just told me to go here and destroy the ring!" "I guesss the hobbitses won't be needing me, then," says Gollum. "Depends. Do you have a ring?" "No, I haven't gotsss the preciousss," says Gollum. "Did it have to be THE ring?" "No idea. Gandalf never told me anything." "I do have this ring I took off Galadriel's finger. Maybe we should throw it in instead." "Well, it can't hurt to try." Moments later, a few thousand leagues away as the penguin flies, the great Mallorn trees collapse and the elven kingdom of Lothlórien is swallowed by the earth. "Do you think it worked?" asks Pippin. "Dunno. I do have some other rings. This one belonged to Elrond. Let's see what happens if we throw it in."

"Well, that's just great," says Denethor. "You sent the wrong hobbits into Mordor. Now Sauron's hosts are on my doorstep, and we don't have anything to defend ourself with!" "We do have a ring of power," says Boromir. "Aaaah! A ghost!" screams Denethor. "The ghost of my dead son has come to haunt me!" "Stop it, father. I'm not dead. That was Faramir." "But... how did he die?" "As I remember, you pushed him off a cliff." "Oh, right. And why aren't you dead?" "Look," says Gandalf, "we don't have time to explain this gaping plot hole. We have to do something about those orcs!" "Exactly," says Boromir. "As I was saying, father, we should use the weapon of the enemy against him!" "I have an idea," says Bayar. "Why don't I put on the ring, go invisible, and stab all the orcs before they know what happened?" "No, no, no! That's not how it's supposed to go! We have to desperately defend the city while we wait for the King... uhm... I mean... some unimportant ranger to arrive! Look, it's right here in the book!" "Can't argue with that," says Denethor.

Reinholdt
2008-12-09, 12:03 PM
Oh Mordokai... Interested in becoming a corrupted by the ring of power? :smallamused:

You're evil now, I can do that :smalltongue:

*watches similar thing happen to Mordokai*

*laughs a vile laugh*

Well, I could replace him as the Daltonic Sauron. :smallsmile:

EDIT: On Gondor's side? Hmm. Works. :smallbiggrin:

Having messed up the banner- and flagcolours of the different armies, Sauron is accidentally helping the wrong side?

Mordokai
2008-12-09, 12:35 PM

And if you'll note above in Herman's post. That's what I am. :smallamused:
Ha, but see here, you said, 'ring of power', and as I remember, there were a total of 20 rings of power made.
9 for men.
7 for the dwarves.
3 for the elves
1 for Sauron.
But the dwarven rings were taken or destroyed by dragon fire.
the nine were taken by Sauron

So you could hav either taken some rings of power from Sauron, taken some from the elves, there's plenty left! On the pessimistic side, that's like a 1/13 chance of it being Sauron's ring!

/LotR-fu

Reinholdt
2008-12-09, 01:44 PM
I'm aware. But destroying one with a smiting sword, just doesn't seem likely to work.

Hit me again Mordokai! Hit me!

* pokes, hard*
You mean Nazgul...Don't you?

Its a Fell Beast (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fell_beast) actually D-D, the ring-wraiths and the fell beast combined is a Nazgul.

Edit: No sorry, the Nazgul is the ring-wraith and the fell beast is just its mount.

More Edit: There is no actual name for them but the term "fell beast" is the closest description of them beside "the nazguls flying mounts".

:smallbiggrin:
Nononono! You confused it. Sams "pet name" for Frodo was Gollum. Nazgul was the first bearer of the Ring after Boromir cut it from his finger and used it as a bait for fishing...

Reinholdt
2008-12-11, 02:51 PM
This of course after Gandalf made a tree house and had a tea party with the Balrog and Elrond.

Lord Herman
2008-12-11, 02:52 PM
Wait, I thought Elrond was the Balrog's name. :smallconfused:

Dallas-Dakota
2008-12-11, 03:26 PM
Ok, fools, I give up...I'l go hang out with my fellow Tolkien fans....

And the Balrog's name was really Mike Ada.
Who was discriminated because he couldn't fit into elf treehouse's.

If they did it would have rendered the whole "Falling for three days" thing moot.

Flame of Anor
2008-12-12, 12:36 AM
No, see, "Elrond" is the balrog's name, but the balrog time-travels so that he can have tea with himself.

And as for Morgoth, that's actually the name of the dwarven transvestite, you know, the one that runs the Prancing Pony.

I'm extending the deadline for this round until after the Dutch Meetup. Sunday, 12:00 GMT sounds about right.

Edit: Time's up. The story will be up today or tomorrow.

Anyway, yeah, the update is taking a bit longer than expected. First there was the Dutch meetup, then an exam, and now I've gotten sick. And it's not a good idea to write when you're sick. (http://www.giantitp.com/Images/fanart/ootslate1.gif)

You know, it might be better for the crazyness this game entails if you wrote while you were sick... :smallwink:

Do you guys really keep bumping this thread?!?
In case you hadn't figured it out, the game died like, two months ago or something....

Anyone that signed up for it, if it actually started, would just get auto'd anyway.
Give it up already.

If you're so intent on playing a game of RAF, just run one yourself.

Technically, the first round has finished, but the second hasn't started, as we're waiting on the narration. And Herman said it was still in the works about a week and a half ago! That's recent! Comparitively!

Agreed.
I might run a Half-Life RAF classic one of these days, but I don't really have time right now.

This game is dead QQ.

Lord Herman
2009-01-31, 05:53 PM
Yeah, I guess it is. With my classes starting next week, I don't expect I'll pick up this game again anytime soon. So this game of Team RAF is over.

This isn't the end of Team RAF, of course. I just need to recharge my inspiration-o-meter. So expect a new Team RAF within the next few months*.

My apologies to all for making this game die, and especially to dallas-dakota who waited so long for a Lord of the Rings RAF game. Maybe I should make the next one about cookies to make it up to him.
