Have Fun Storming the Castle

So it might be a good idea before next week to decide: DO you want to attack the Temple of Elemental Evil? If you do, I'll get a map ready. If not, I can do other stuff.

Mike's archers have arrived, along with the aid from the Bishop requested by Isaac. He has sent three Rebukers, monks whose specialty is rebuking evil, named Raius, Egonos and Petrus, and two squads of Michaelines, knights of the Order of St. Michael whose motto is "Suffer not a witch to live!" Also, a company of Rangers has arrived; this is the all-female woodsrunning unit that Heather was a part of.

So you have a pretty solid force. About 50 men. And if the Temple sends out a huge expedition, as your prisoners say they will, you could meet them in the open, or could even go around them and hit the Temple when it's relatively undefended!

Your assets:

50 archers

12 rangers

3 Rebukers

6 Michaelines
1 ogre

Their assets:

70 humans

70 goblins

10 orcs

3 ogres

11 magicians

Do you want to go for it? You could always call for additional forces; Mike's got a legion, after all.
