You may not have known, but when we were having our fight over the Kailasan capital, T'ien Ch'i sent me a death threat.

I told you it would work.

My God, Shadow blast sure is a nasty spell.

Shovah32 · #**403** November 26th, 2006, 08:56 PM

Yea, especially when cast by a D10 PoD

I was at the receiving end of more than a bit of the shadowblast action. It killed a lot of guys, but the loss of 21 leaders probably hurt Sauromatia a bit more.

Shadowblast requires gems. If they don't have access to laboratories, they won't have the capability to throw in more shadowblasting in subsequent battles.

Greetings,
Despite the uneven odds, and the swarm of blessed vanheres the Sons of Winter took over a Vanheimian fort. This act of heroism will weaken our foes, and may be a light to any nation, showing that victory is allways possible. I send a bloody sword to every nation in the world with the wish that they will join the war against Vanheim. Even a fool would understand that if Vanheim will prosper and will take my provinces he will ascend to the role of pantokrator within a few years... And that will mean your sloughter! So the coice is fight now, or fall later. "This is as good a place to take your first step to heaven as any. It's ours. It ain't much, but it's our. Only question is how you check out. Now, you want it on your feet, or on your knees beggin'?"

Arco has staled three turns in a row. Caelum has staled three of the last five and two of the last three. I will set Arco to AI control the next time they are last one out. Caelum is still playing often enough to keep me from switching them off, but I question how much longer either nation will survive.

To all, if you are effectively dead and no longer wish to continue playing, it is OK to set yourself to AI control... of course you are not required to do so if you relish the role of spoiler or just want to see how long you can hold out.

Hrrrm. Just how hopeless is the situation for Arco? I'll put myself down as a substitute if you don't mind a new player.

Twice before, the armies of Sauromatia have thrown themselves against the defenses of T'ien Ch'i, and twice they have been slaughtered.

Both times, the Sauromatian army was proud and strong, but consisted only of mundane troops and was torn apart by the masses of T'ien Ch'i mages. But this third time, victory seemed assured... around twenty spellcasters, most able to cast Shadow Blast, and equipped with plenty of gems - surely the Sauromatians would have better magic this time.

Well, they did. But this time they forgot to bring a proper army. So, while raining down death on the replaceable PD of T'ien Ch'i, the Sauromatian mages stood still while the common soldiers of T'ien Ch'i walked forward and cut them down. A tragic day.

Next time...

Arco's situation is really pretty bad, they only have one province left, plus a fortress under siege by T'ien Ch'i - and the T'ien Ch'i army is not to be messed with. There's no point taking over for him, it'd just be a turn or two of misery.

On the other hand, JoePa, if you'd just like to sign back in for one more turn and send me all your gems, I can try to avenge you...

I'd also like to say - Helheim, you're a legend. Good luck to the last of your brave soldiers - we'll try to continue your fight.

Now all I need to do is train up 20 enaries, and I'll be back in the position I was in last turn... only this time alone

Remember: you started this war, and you'll finish it.

Not once has the army of Tien Chi sortied into the lands of a nation that did not first send its troops into the lands of Tien Chi.

Several times we offered you peace, and several times you rejected it. Now it is time for you to prepare yourself for the inevitable destruction you have purchased for yourself.
