Re: An excerpt form Marignon
The Ancient Master fell in single (almost) combat with the Blood Cursed champion!
Long live Mictlan!

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
Wow! Turn 7 and 3 of the 18 Epic Heroes are dead-that we know of.
The Blood-Cursed Champion and the Angel of Death are both just sickly powerful. Though I think the Ancient Master is certainly capable of killing the Blood-Cursed Champion. The Quivering Palm can bring down anything if it lands-unless he had lightning protection. It is a shock attack.
Dr. P can correct me, but I think he lost the Blood-Cursed Champion in a single combat to an Atlantis Worthy Hero last game. One more reason to never take misf, as that reduces your chance of getting another thug. Some of the Worthy Heroes are quite "Epic."
All of the Epic Heroes are designed to be valuable, though not all of them are designed to take provinces early.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
Yeah, that's correct.
I lost him vs. the escaped traitor prince, in personal combat, I believe, who had been tricked out quite fierce. The traitor prince was then brought down by a host of the surrounding jaguar warriors.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
Actually, the more I think about it, unless the Blood-Cursed Champion had a fire bless up, I think the Ancient Master would defeat him 1 v 1. Blood-Cursed Champion has 3 poison based attacks and the Ancient Master is immune to poison-but not fire.
I do think it is a mistake to make most Epic Heroes a Prophet though, as that is one of the reasons Dr. P lost his Blood-Cursed Champion in EH1. If memory serves, Dr. P lamented that the fight with the Traitor Prince took place in enemy dominion.
Maybe Shinuyama can post a screenshot of the battle? I doubt Mictlan will willingly divulge his bless, though an s9 f9 are almost certainly his bless, with maybe a n4 or b4 thrown in.

I prophetized the monkey king, as in the testgames he went from immortal but dies always to immortal and wins always, and as he does not have hp anyway it is not really important as he will be killed after the first hit.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
yeah. but take the monkey king into enemy dominion and he is toast as a prophet with low hps.
I do see a strong case for making the immortal assassin and the monkey king prophets. They are both immortal and really should not be risked outside of friendly dominion anyway.
Actually a screenshot of the fight would not show the bless of the units.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
I can't get the Llamaserver to accept my turn file, Llamabeast has made a post saying the server is having troubles, can we get the hosting delayed until everyone's turns can get accepted?

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
llamabeast said he is going to delay the hosting of all games by 24 hours. So I will leave it in his capable hands.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
I went ahead and postponed the hosting by 24 hours. If LLama does an additional 24, i will remove it.
