The Tharhioness was even generous enough to let me lead 200 centuries into Rashmen for the "Thayan Liberation Mission,"which; is the name Eltabbar has assigned to our current ploy. With all that being said, all my men are formed and ready to march as soon as all the others have gathered."

(Okay, I don't know if I should be reading that in R. Lee Ermey's voice or Max Payne's voice. I'll go with Max Payne. :P )

Problem: How in blue blazes is Corella going to fit 20,000 grunts inside her Invisibility Sphere? Clearly my Hazlok's plan for a surprise attack is going to take some retooling...

Okay, change of plans: Everyone here is going on an extreme crash diet! No food or drink whatsoever, and necromancy and/or transmutation may be involved as well. Each of you has a goal of losing at least 20% of your body mass by sunset. No amputations allowed! Okay, ready? Go!

Okay, so we all go in under Corella's Invisibility Sphere; stay close to her, and no picking her pockets or trying to yank her mask off. If Brandon can catch a break from his Tribune stuff, he can handle most of the fighting; just lead the gallant charge out of the Invisibility Sphere once we have their ringleader and/or Thayan in sight. Khreed? Ride with Brandon and the rest of the vanguard; you Tempurans love doing that. Petra? Help Corella nuke any undead who show up; half a dozen Rashemi vampires might cause some big problems if we're out past dusk. Korina and Djed? You two are the diversion; just run out ahead of the squad and start killing random Rashemi dudes until you both come to bickering with each other over who killed what and start trying to kill each other instead. If that doesn't get their attention, nothing will. Cassae and Maurice? Go up to the biggest, meanest berserker you can find and sell him about 400 pounds worth of junk; that should put a crimp in his frenzied battle charge. Gayle? While we're passing through into Rashemen, see if you can talk Gust into giving us a group discount on bandages; we might need about 500 of them. Deedra? Blast the everloving turducken out of any Rashemi shaman who has magic eyes circling his head, especially if they're the purple eyes. Marister? Well...I dunno. Sic some wolves or whatever on them. Hadir? Grab up all the loot and give it renames like "Sandy Desert Butt Crack of a Thousand Camel Droppings" or whatever. Daeris? If this mission goes belly-up, we're all blaming you. :P

Any questions? See Hazlok. This whole plan is his idea. Honest.

Um. I don't think that his bones are 20% of his body mass.

Okay, so we'll remove his brain too. He doesn't have much need for that thing, right? :P
