I really don't think anyone cares that much about specific spells, much less categorizing them by use.

Also, I have some questions. First, why in God's name did anyone think it would be a good idea to attack the invaders? Secondly, how could an Imperial Military under the command of the intelligent and level-headed Dante be responsible for such a blatantly idiotic assault? Third, does everyone with a fantasy character genuinely just have to wait around until this "battle" ends (who [i]knows[/i] how long that will take) before we can post?

I'm more than a little incredulous.

That's the world of Deaus for you, its in whats basically the medieval era. Honor, prestige and glory still play a huge part of war. Lords would drool at the amount of glory to be at "beating back the invaders" in the name of the king or the Gods or whatever. Plus this was before there was anything close to modern tactical and strategic planning and order of command wasn't quite as strictly followed as it was literally a bunch of squabbling nobles occasionally pointed at a common goal. There was enough lords and generals who wanted a direct fight so they basically threw away Dante's orders and went on the offensive themselves; you can't really do much when about 90% of your subordinates are rebelling against your orders but watch and facepalm in stupidity.

As for how long the battle will last and until the fantasy character can be introduced, I am not sure, depends on how fast the scifi people post. But I'm thinking of way to engage the fantasy characters through way of Eko the Incarnate/NPCs so they will get some action at least.
