More Info

As I have told you guys, I am going to put my energy into writing a story. But I have found out that I need to do projects beside my story to keep myself entertained and my mind fresh.

These projects will be in the form of both historical and fantasy matches. I will describe these matches later in this blogpost and will first describe the things I will add to the battles to improve them.
As everyone who writes battles, I always try to improve my writing and make the battles more believable.
This has let me to include not only more information but also a new categorie in which I will judge the coming battles.

First of all, I will be using squads of six people with one of them being the leader for these matches. I do this because the effectiveness of the weapons can be shown and I can bring a bit of tactical warfare in the match. This will all enhance the battle-experience and make these battles more realistic.

As for the weapons. As you guys know, I select four weapons and judge them weapon for weapon, weapon on armour and I look at the skills.
Now I am not going to change that format because I like it and it works pretty well. What I am going to do is write down and describe some of the weapons that I did not include but that were used by these warriors.

Now for the most important new announcement, the new categories.
I will go deeper into the X-factors and devide it into three different categories.

The first of them is motivation and loyalty. I will look at what drives the warrior to the battles and how well will morale survive when the battle turns against the warrior in question. Will the motivation be enough and hold on or will the squad of warriors break and lose the battle.

The second one is experience and training. I will look at all the training and experience that both warriors have gotten and which warrior has the wider range of experience/training. If possible, I will also look at who faced the more dangerous opponents to give this egde.

The last one is tactics. Because I am writing squad on squad battles, I cannot include large army tactics and some warriors will use different tactics then they would use if it was a army battle but in the end, I will give a egde on which squad tactics proves to be superior.

now I have announced the changes, I will repeat the matches I will be writing and the order they appear in there is the order in which they will be written and posted.




The Scottish Highlander Vs. Duppelsoldner Landsknechte









Two warriors who are very similair. Both have very long swords, both use early firearms and both have a strange sense of fasion. The patriotic Scottsman will fight the most elite among the Landsknechte, the duppelsoldner. When two powerfull fighters clash their long swords, only one will stand to claim victory.


Captain Hook Vs. Captain Jack Sparrow
 










Two piratecaptains cross blades and guns. One who hunts down a magical boy for the rest of his life while the other is born for bad luck. In a battle between two pirates, who proves to be the better captain and who becomes sharkfood or get forced off the plank.


Attila The Hun Vs. Vercingetorix










Two powerfull leaders who rode big warhorses and guided their men to victory. These two ancient warriors battled Rome in different timeperiods and with different results. Vercingetorix battled one of Rome's finest generals and lost while Attila fought decent roman generals and won.
When these two leaders meet in battle, only one can prove his superiority and take out the other.


Avatar Aang Vs. Keyblade master Sora










Two boys who are drawn into action and fight to protect that what they love. Which of the two boywarriors survives when the the forces of good collide. Is it the Avatar and master of the four elements or is it the Keyblade master who traveled across the whole disney universe and uses the keyblade as his main weapon.
I will note that this is battle will be slightly more different then the rest because both boys are cut off of any help and will face each other alone. That means no Sokka, Katara, Zuko, Toph, Goofy or Donald to aid in the fight.


Hassasin Vs. Ninja







The very last battle is also a very special one. This is a battle of shadows where tools and poisons are used as much as weapons and stealth is as important as fighting abilitie. Both groups of warriors were feared and respected. The Hassasins managed to scare even the great Salah Ad-din and almost killed Edward Longshanks while the ninja's took out the famous samurai and spread fear in Asia.
This will be a different battle for a few reasons. There will be squads of ten instead of six warriors, there will be multiple weapons per categorie and the fight will take several days and nights before a winner appears.


I hope you guys will like all of this.

  2. Nice setup, it seems that alot of people are doing leader-squad match-ups these days. The Hassassin vs Ninja one sounds crazy, I can't wait for that.
