Attack on the Giants Reach 5/5:
Tactics:
The Kendra's Fury is armed and ready with "Cotton" cannons (as they have been so named by the crew for their inventor and the large wadding used). Fifteen guns, named for each of the Racial Artifacts and manned by sailors of the Races they represent. The KF will be captained by Gregory Renaldo Binks III. It will have support in transportation by the Marrow so surprise is on our side. The Marrow will also enhance the movement of the ship during combat as well, and concentrate on transporting our troops to the beachhead made by the cannons, and washing would be attackers down river.
Phase one: Kendra's Fury is unleashed on the shoreline to establish a beachhead.
Phase two: Marrow wash a large number of Corrupt down river if they come out for the ship, continue until they stop coming into the water.
Phase three: Marrow transport troops to the shore and the fight continues, KF supporting at range.
Phase four: Additional beach heads and flanking from other groups of tribesmen started such that the Corrupt cannot push any one group back. In the mean time while the Corrupt is coming out and down to the river's edge, Charis attacks from the mountain side, effectively from behind the Corrupt (and can do a flyby for lighting healing near the KF).
Phase five: the push to the cave where the node is. (possibly with Cyclops moving the Cotton Cannons up to the cave if needed as a door breacher)
Phase six: enter the cave with Ophidians, Charis, and Tribesmen with elemental resists still left and destroy the node.
