Goibniu Looks Back On His Final Fight In Tier 2

By: Donaliam

After the final battle of March 19, while looking over the fallen greenskin lord of Dok Karaz, I look back to the battles I have fought this night. As I cleaning the foul smelling greenskin blood off my Fangbreaker Claymore, I look to my long time friend and leader, Dannan. She is standing with the Standard of the Gaiscioch in hand looking over the battlefield. I smile thinking "One more Keep we have taken away from the greenskin menace." Though I have fought beside Dannan for many battles, this raid will be the most memorable. It was my last in tier 2. Through out the day, many greenskins fell at my hand.

After starting out by taking Stonetroll Keep, Fangbreaka Swamp, Dok Karaz, Spites Reach, and Cascades of Thunder, Dannan decided to dig in and wait at Spites Reach. I valiantly manned the oil and waited while Dannan took most of the Warband and waited to the south of Spites Reach at the Dragon Gate. The greenskins began their assault at Spites Reach with only a handful of defenders there. After I confirmed a greenskin warband was attacking, Dannan had the warbands split into three directions. One group assaulted from the Unicorn Siege Camp, while the other blocked the greenskin escape route known as the "crack." The third group came straight in and attacked the rear flank of the assaulting greenskins. The greenskins were routed, but they returned and tried again. This time Dannan had 2 warbands group at the postern door and went around the backside of the crack. Once there the warband moved through the crack and attacked the greenskins flank. Again they were routed. They then reformed and captured Cascades of Thunder. The greenskins attacked Spites Reach one last time but were repelled.

After Dannan's brilliant strategy of defending Spites Reach, our warbands embarked on a speedy crusade with our 4 Warbands. After retaking Cascades of Thunder, the next stop was Troll Country. Two warbands took Mandred's Hold while the other 2 took Stonetroll Keep. Dannan repeated this strategy in both Barak Varr and Marshes of Madness. After Dok Karaz fell our warbands then returned back to the Shadowlands. Quickly our warbands retook Spites Reach and Cascades of Thunder, then moved back to Troll Country to retake Mandreds Hold and Stonetroll Keep.

By this time Dannan's shock and awe strategy had stalled the greenskins. By this time our warbands retuned to the Shadowlands to retake the battlefield objectives. After retaking the Shadow Spire, there was an unexplained darkness that caused our warbands to disperse. After this Darkness passed our warbands regrouped and rallied in the Marshes of Madness. The greenskin were taking Alcadizaar's Tomb when they chased a group into our warbands waiting at the warcamp. Our warbands retook Alcadizaar's Tomb then moved on to take Fangbreaka Swamp.

After taking Fangbreaka Swamp, our warbands then moved to Barak Varr. While gathering at the warcamp, a force of greenskins ran by the warcamp thus starting an unforgettable battle. Our warbands chased down the greenskins who ran back to defend Dok Karaz. This was the battle of the night. Our first siege of Dok Karaz did not go very well. We were able to take down the door and formed up on the bottom floor. After healing our wounded we charged up into a wall of greenskins. We began to break their lines but we were quickly repelled. Our second assault also did not fare well. The greenskins had formed a wall at the door preventing us from entering the keep. Those foul greenskins poured that oil on top of us. I cam back again and began shooting a cannon at the oil. Dannan then called for a retreat. I was unhappy by this call but followed my friend. Her vision tends to be more clear than mine at times. As we fell back those detestable greenskins began to chase us down. Dannan saw this as an opportunity. She called for us to follow the road from the greenskin camp to the back of the keep. The greenskins did not see us coming and we moved into the bottom floor splitting the greenskin defense. We than charged up and began clearing out the defenders. After a couple final pushes but the greenskins, we were able to take down the lord of Dok Karaz.

I look back and I will miss the raids here, but I now move on to follow my cousin Donulliam in tier 3 to aid him in his quest. I believe tier 2 will be in good hands with an Ironbreaker I met named Ghuilliam....
