The siege of Goddard begun.

First we went around to pick off randoms.

After the coast was clear, we regrouped and awaited our attackers.
We didn't wait long. In the first 10 minutes up until the very end we were fighting our hearts out.
The first big wave came from TerranRepublic. Four or five parties came at us.

We didn't have much time to get into position, so the fighting went on on the stairs up to the to castle.




Epic fight raged on.




At the end, we slaughtered every last one of them.
But in just few seconds, Apocalypse with InfectedUnits and ReJoyce came at us.
They were not that many, but we just got out of a huge fight.


We repelled them, but couldn't catch a breath. A second wave of TerranRepublic came at us.
We had to buff on the run.






We were victorious against TerranRepublic once again. They ran away with tails between their legs and gave up on taking on Goddard castle.

Few short minutes to regroup and lick our wounds were all we had. Suddenly someone screamed - "OOC coming", and indeed they were. They attacked us at the stairs, didn't give us time to go down.




We pushed them back after a while. They retreated. For now.

But before we know it another wave came at us. This time it was Renegade clan aka BlackArrows.




For this fight we had our ally backing us up. They came for some pvp as they had nothing to do at their castle.


We killed them. All of them. But just in this second OOC came behind them and rushed towards us.



We chased them away.

Suddenly some shouted "Renegade from the rear." They were trying to flank us, caught between OOC and Renegade from both sides, we fought gloriously.




We repelled both attacks and kept the castle.


While this was going on, Apocalypse + InfectedUnits destroyed our castle gate and went inside.

We rushed inside and picked them off one by one on the way.


They started destroying crystals. I'm not really sure what they were trying to achieve.

At the last few minutes of the siege we went ahead to their summoners and killed them all.

Thus the siege of Goddard concluded with HeroesOfTemple clan victorious.
P.S.
This siege was pretty exhausting. Especially for a bishop.
I had to go to the hospital after the first siege. Just for comparison, this were my hands before the siege:

and after:

Yeah.. I know.
