Line 1:
{{trope}}
'''Basic Trope''': There is a demonic army loyal to [[Hell|dark powers]] that the heroes must confront.
* '''Straight''': [[The Hero|Siege Bladeheart]] and his [[Five -Man Band|companions]] must battle the Crimson Legion, a massive army of demons that is loyal to the [[Satan|Crimson]] [[Expy|King]].
* '''Exaggerated''': "The gates of Hell have opened...and its infernal soldiers are marching out. Hear them, [[Hell Is That Noise|crying out of the blood of mankind]], [[Blood Knight|behold their lust for war!]]. Go forth, and oblige their wishes! Spill their wicked blood, pierce their twisted hearts, and send them back to the abyss from whence they came!"
* '''Justified''': Can't stage a Demonic Invasion without soldiers, can you?
Line 8:
* '''Subverted''': Hell does not, as it turns out, have anything that would count as an army.
* '''Double Subverted''': Until the Crimson King [[The Corruption|acquires]] [[Demonic Possession|one]].
* '''Parodied''': Siege and co. battle legions of [[What Do You Mean ItsIt's Not Heinous?|lawyers and IRS workers]]
* '''Deconstructed''': Because [[Religion Is Magic]], Siege merely puts together an entire army of priests. When they pour Holy water all over the opposing forces, the Crimson Legion doesn't seem like a very useful army...
* '''Reconstructed''': ...or maybe, religion isn't magic. The demons laugh at the plain water being thrown at them and [[Curb Stomp Battle|massacre their enemies]]
