Maple Wars Day 3: The invasion of Henesys was uncalled for. Many wounded people were in that battle. We had to make a new strategy. Not just Porcupine formation and archer behind them. We also needed new units and new recruits. All we had was Dragon knights and archers. There was one group of people that was willing to fight for money. A mix group with Ice mages and fire mages. They demanded money before the battle. We gave them the money and told them to meet at Ellinia.I also had a new formation too, Testudo formation. Consist of 15 men having shield and making a rectangle. The men on the outside hold there shield outside of the rectangle. And the men inside of the rectangle group hold the shields above them. Thus, making a moving shield that cant be killed by archers. Before the invasion of Ellnia i was nervous. What if the new formation wont work? What if the mages dont come? So many questions going through my mind. But the soldier said i had to leave now. So i left with my duke and spear on me. First time Im feeling scared.
1 portal before Ellinia we had our soldiers in line. The mages didnt come yet. And spys report that Ellnia is used to transport monsters here and there from Orbis and Elnath. We knew what that meant. Somewhere in Ellnia wolfs, hectors,and other dangerous beast lurks in there. When my dragon knights came with shield through the portal something awful happend.
Dragon knights,” AMBUSH!”
I looked up were wolfs were raining upon us.
Me.” TESTUDO FORMATION!”
That idea worked.. a little. Unlucky men were crushed to death but most were alive. As the archer kept the were wolves distracted we headed to the main base of ellnia, the library. As we were on the same platform as the building, yetis were charging at us. But then suddenly they were frozen in there tracks.
Soldier,” THE MAGES ARE HERE, WOOOO”
Then the yetis were frozen and burned alive. Then they were no more. The mages rushed back to there ambushing spot. Then we went on to the library. When we were in there only the cammander was there. As the whole battalion walked to arrest the cammander. He threw all of them to the ground. I was the only one who had to take him.
I stabbed him in the shoulder. Seeing that didnt hurt it he scratched me in the chest and i bleeded out. The other dragon knights came and ganged up on the cammander and killed him. The day was out. We won Ellinia, but i was in bad condition… I thought i could never fight agian….

this is not that great of a story, it’s rushing and the “testudo formation” or watever is a copy of the roman war teq. They called it the Turtle Formation. OR they also call it the Testudo Formation! Testudo is the latin word for tortoise, it was used so archers couldn’t attack them and they were nearly invincible. And the same discription goes as is said,

“The first row of men, possibly excluding the men on the flanks, would place their shields in front of them, from about their shins to the middle of their faces, so as to cover the formation’s front. Everybody in the middle would place their shields over their head to protect from above, balancing the shields on their helmets and overlapping them. If necessary, the legionaries on the sides and rear of the formation could stand sideways or backwards with shields held as the front row’s, so as to protect the formation’s sides and rear, but the shape of the shields would mean that these soldiers would only be afforded incomplete protection.” – Wikipedia
but i read it, cause im bored, and i just wanna see wat happens, like one town should be atleast like 5 chapters, and like describing how they had to camp out and ETC in the middle of the ellina forest, hoping that animals won’t attack them and describing how they were up all night =], blah blah, yeah that sort,
