Poor spiders... Shadow Vestals are bad news. I will listen to further reports with great interst, mostly because of my abysmal scouting capabilities.

[zzcat]

Tormoil+wasteland, it's why my income is so low even with 20+ provinces

[Klepto]

Poor spiders? I'm dead last on most graphs and just had half my army squished by a god. All good fun though

[Trumanator]

Well if you've got an S9 bless on those vestals then what you've got are etherial, high damage, hard to banish sacreds who have 2 guarenteed lives. S9 gives you banish resist, plus an extra life on your 5hp vestals. I'm stuck with ****ty serpents who are allergic to any kind of projectile, plus a dragony summon who costs like 35 pearls. That screws the bless route... Oh well, I can make the battlefield a nightmare for my enemies, so it all evens out.

[Klepto]

Yes, S9 works very well with Shadow Vestals

[zzcat]

Eriu has some heroes with 100+ kill. It's awesome for a non-giant nation in year 1! How can he get it so early? Full-geared thugs or thunder strike?

[Redeyes]

Awake master druid earth 9 nature 6 quick alteration research to 3 and using Sidhe lords and Tuatha Lords in pairs, he doesn't have enough research for Thunder Strike yet.

His expansion began when he hit 200 research, i.e mistform which makes you virtually immune to independents.

[NKIcan]

maybe my scouting just sucks but thus far I havent ran into anyone really. Just one other nation. Hmmm wonder where you all are hiding? :P

[Trumanator]

Oh we'll find you.

The animals of the forest, who think themselves a nation, have without provocation attacked the peace loving lizards of C'tis. Though they pity the poor, wretched, unthinking beasts, the Marshmasters and Lizard Kings will spare none. As with all rabid abominations, death is the only choice. Consider them destroyed.
