I tried Doom Horrors earlier. They got wasted by Pythium. Clearly, Doom Horrors are not all they were cracked out to be, even though they totally own the AI and Indies.

So....whats the final on the start off?

17:00(5:00 PM) MST? (Around 00:00 for me, gonna check it up)

Clearly? What did you send them against? They are not invincible, you know. And they are weak against afflictions, as are many units whose strength comes from their lifesteal ability. Did you give it a ring of regeneration and lucky amulet?

Note that if you're going to blow 100 pearls on a doom horror, spending 15 more gems on items is trivial. And empowering it in water (for quickness and breath of winter) or air (for mistform and mirror image) or fire (for fireshield) are virtually essential as well. A Pheonix Pyre'd 0-encumbrance life-stealing supercombattant is nearly invincible if Pheonix Pyre works. Only vulnerabilities would be... Drain Life spell and Curse.

Well, since it doesn't look like Apep will be able to make that, either....

Let's go with Condors Time: 1600 EST/1400 MST to 2100 EST/1900 MST then.

Ok, and its still Tomorow? (Friday the 5th)

Yeah, I considered those options.

Then I figured if I was gonna go totally balls-to-the-wall with expenses, I may as well go for broke. The Doom Horror project got shelved.

That, and the problem of massing doom horrors is that it basically assures that my lab is going to burn down within 3 turns! As Ermor, this is particularly painful.

Looks that way. Not everyone else has signed in yet, plus I have to go tell the server guy to pull Apep since he can't make it this round.

Norfleet · #38 March 4th, 2004, 11:22 PM

Okay, here's the current roll call:
Ermor: Me.
Ulm: Condors
R'lyeh: AztraGoth
Machaka: ?
Marignon: (dropped)Apep - scheduling incompatibility (better luck next time!)

Who's the mystery Machaka? Did Navrunner decide to go Machaka instead of Pyth or Marignon? Did somebody accidentally misclick, or do we have another player? I don't recall anyone calling Machaka.

Some folk really got too much time.

navrunner · #40 March 5th, 2004, 03:45 AM

I have not signed in yet, I will try to sign in as Marignon.
Hmmm . . . the server does not appear to be up.
