Default A funny battle report

Okay, it is end game, and I am getting spanked everywhere. In one province, I have my pretender (Earth mommy), my prophet (a Gode), Angerboda, and a Niefel Jarl. Just 4 Commanders, no troops, and no militia. Then about 900 Pangea troops show up. I thought, sheet, I am dead. But voila! Only 1 of my commanders die, and they take about 700 Pangea troops and most of their commanders. LOL!

How is this possible? Well, I had regeneration on all of my 4 commanders (Earth Mother gets one anyways, level 9 nature bless on the prophet and the Jarl, and a regenerating ring on Angerboda). Further, all 4 commanders were in Hall of Fame, with 5 stars each, with nice bonuses. All 4 commanders were seriously empowered, especially in death magic (Earth Mother was a level 17 death mage, and all 3 other commanders were level 9 or over). Finally, they all had artifacts on; what helped especially was the artifact that summons tons of wolves, which served as a cannon fodder. But in any case, it was truly an incredible scene. I only lost Angerboda.

while the battle is playing you can hit PageDown to lower the camera view, then UpArrow to move in close. Hit your "Print Screen" button (upper right of the keyboard usually) to grab the screen into a capture buffer.

Now leave the game or use something like Ctrl-Esc to drop it down to the bar. Open a paint program, choose Edit and Paste to pop your screen capture in. Then save it.

Now you have an image of the battle suitable for a web page or a background screen for your desktop
