Send your greater Prismatic Dragons, Send your Lichs and your Arch-Demons

They shall never defeat the Knights of the Hokey Pokey!

All we need, is a few minutes, and a new army is at our command. a few days, and we have new species, fully outfitted and trained for the war...and all of them, mages

Don't know if your planes merging is like making a rath. anyway, you think you are the only one who can create new species and armies? Give the phexains telrai and you are in for a hard time in that deparment.

Also we can raise and control all of the dead of D&D. Even god-like mages can be raised and controlled.

Also whats your flavor? We could also drown the world in life-killing white or black mana... and they've killed powerful beings.

I doubt very much that Pherixain battle-mages would stand up very well to an elven sorcerer/wizard who has had the equivalent of centuries to perfect his art to the point where he can kill gods in 6 seconds or less
Barrin trained Phexain battle-mages? In slow-time enviroments? Yep. Also the reason I choosed phexain is becuase we can grow them. Even if we arn't able to get them to Barrins level. We will outnumber you. Trust me.
We counter with corpesfire, the corpses explode. Or we simply cast control undead, and your control ins nulified. Besides, undead dont have spellcasting ability, accept for litches, and their will is indominable, and they are immune to such contol attempts. And attampts at resurection, at least in D&D have to be voluntary, you cant ressurect someone if they dont want to come back.

Okay, love to see your armies magic levels after that tho. Billions of undead tire anybody out. Also corpse fire sounds like it wouldn't work to much.. anyone who is too far gone in body to be ressurcted would posses mounds of the soil they died in. And ressurctions don't have to be voluntary when yogsmoth does them. Though the person has to obey yogsmoth, So I doubt your control undead would work (And doesn't that only work on free undead or something like that?).

They'd soon learn some Common Courtesy

Also, your spells of plnar destuction would never take effect, know why? Mystra cuts off your acess to magic across the planes, no casting for any of you while here, and none of your spells can take effect on these planes

Who says Mystra can control the magic of Gathering ?

Anyway, first thing Phyrexia does after covertly scouting out the first conquest is start overlaying custom planes onto them , perhaps using Rath, then making another one, then overlaying that.

Is it not Diplomacy that would win the day. "Ok I did, this...your turn, let's see who screws up first hehehe."

Thicket Basilisk, put Lure on it, and then put Indistructable aura on it. Meanwhile Pull out Commander Aesha, give it protection from all colors, and give it a Mystic Veil, put two Saproling groves into play and then play Worship. Then proclaim to your enemies "I can never DIE! MWAHAHAHA!"

The fact that ALL people from outside Toril only use magic because she allows it. Faiths And Avatars is my source.

She can still be eliminated from the game by "Look at me, I'm the DCI!"

A Higher Authority to the nth power.

Heck with all that...the Cheese stands Alone, my friends....The Cheese, Stands, Alone.

It is REQUIRED by the rules of D&D that the souls be willing to be ressurected by the power in question(they know who is trying to ressrurect them) if they are not willing, the deity they serve will interpose on their behalf. You are fucked.

Oh and for all the invincibility you guys use, for one, the enchantments will be removed from you when you enter our multiverse(thanks to mystra, protecting her children) but, all the character have to do is start praying, and cast miracle, and youwill cease to exist.
