Horde of the Day
Every 3,333 years .. the planets align in such a way as to bring into existence a gateway to an ethereal Kingdom known simply as -The White Citadel
From this White Citadel come warriors who are true of heart, and as brave as lions.
They fight against injustice and oppression, righting wrongs and rescuing damsels in distress .... before the planets once again begin to un-align ... and whereupon the White Citadel fades away for another 3,333 years.
They have been known to appear during several famous conflicts, such as :
- Pretty much any 18th Century battle
- They were at the Berezina during Napoleon's retreat from Moscow
- They appeared briefly at Jena to cover the withdrawal of the Saxons
- They appeared in Berlin during the Kapp putsch, and convinced the Freikorps to head back to barracks.
- They appeared at Rouke's Drift to save the Welsh Choir from being washed on the spears.
- They opened the gates of Palermo to Garibaldi.
This is their story.
