Congratulations on your purchase of your Castle Defense System ®.
This state of the art system offers superior firepower, outstanding detection capabilities and a lifetime guarantee on parts and service.
Included with your deluxe package are five independent auto-launching DTJ projectors each fully equipped with Hellfire tm targeting and tracking systems. Full upgrades to your castles stone work, iron work and wood work with magikal tm binding offering premium protection against siege attacks (up to 40 points per hit regardless of the number of hits per pulse) Also included in your deluxe package are five rank 15 earth elementals (for those tricky subterranean attacks) and two rank 15 water elementals to enhance your moat security.
Each of the five DTJ projectors is capable of launching up to six rank 20 DTJs per pulse against targets detected within a 15 mile radius of the launcher location. Thanks to Hellfire tm targeting each DTJ once locked onto its target will not miss! Only if the target moves out of the projectors range (fifteen mile radius) will the DTJ evaporate before striking the target. (Note this does not limit each DTJ to fifteen miles travel, just the operating radius of each DTJ in comparison to the projectors location) Friendly zones can be defined within the castles defense area to allow the approach of non authorised persons. These zones can be made hot at a moments notice if the operator desires. Each launchers Hellfire tm tracking system displays unauthorised entities on a Krystal ® ball image enhancer. This image enhancer will display friendly/authorised entities as green dots and unfriendly entities as red dots. Authorisation is achieved either through individual aura registration or the application of an authority crystal. Entities with aura registration will appear dark green on the Krystal ® ball image enhancer, authority crystal Entities light green. Tracking and targeting priorities are set by a combination of aural and movement rate fully customisable matrixes. (Include or exclude auras at your leisure. No more pesky possums in your realm!)
As a soon as an unauthorised entity enters the air or groundspace of a launcher a green targeting square will appear around the entity. After a pulse the square will turn red to indicate that DTJs have been launched. At this point the operator has limited time to cancel the launch.
At 1466 hexes per pulse each DTJ will reach the border of its kill zone in 11pulses. Each DTJ will inflict (D-4) + 20 damage. (Damage is physical as well as magical and may stun the target) Entities will continue to be targeted until they are destroyed. Thanks to Hellfire tm tracking any DTJs launched before the entity was destroyed and still in flight after the entity was destroyed will retarget to the nearest unauthorised entity after one pulse.
Hellfire tm tracking operates in three dimensions and will also detect incoming unfriendly entities underground. The option to destroy these threats is available via your earth elemental task force. These sleepless leviathans will remorselessly hunt down and crush any intruding offenders. Like wise your Moat/Seafront will be similarly defended by the water elementals included in your package. Control of these elementals can be via the CDS launchers or verbally from authorised personnel. Chain of command ® authority functions are built into and are fully customisable by you the owner of this deluxe package.
We wish you well in your future endeavours and look forward to more custom in the future.
Greg Graydon: GM at large, is responsible for this particular piece of unpleasantness.

Licence
On the evening of Beltane just before the 1st Meadow the Hellfire tm targeting system for the Newhaven castle defense system assigned a hitherto unseen colour. Blue targets replaced all current targeting cells and over a period of two hours these faded to transparent then disappeared. The earth elementals created a plinth next to the main gate on top of which was placed a stone lectern. They then turned to stone pillars at the apexs of a pentacle formed from the frozen forms of the water elementals. On the lectern was a document written in some hideous legalise, next to which was a brass pottle of red ink. A note apended to the document stated "Your CDS licence has now expired. In order to continue service a signature of the owner/licensee is required on the attached document."
