Forge of Godhood - started

[Calahan]

Brong is confused that the followers of Smaug seem happy at the dispatching of their hissing God. But if that is indeed what pleases them, then we wish them well with their many endless months of genuflecting to return him to this war-strewn plane.

But be warned that those who are devoted to Brong will not be so readily converted to follow the words of another, and a repeat fate awaits Smaug and his foolish flock should they again return to attempt the spreading of their false preachings.


Elsewhere, Brong welcomes the sudden arrival of our new neighbours at the site where an omni eyed ruler of giants previously sat upon his throne. And one wonders if they are going to be friends to their deprived nature loving cousins?

Pangaea does not wish anything else but peace and happines to reign in the world. Especially peoples who are true followers of Nature are regarded with utmost respect, thus long life and prosperity is wished upon them.

[Maerlande]

Do we have a potential stale developing?

[Calahan]

Nope

Thanks for the delay just in case though QM (or Archae). Much appreciated. Got caught up doing a few essentials when I got in from work. Just sent the turn now though.

Abysia and Atlantis decided to throw their act together, and attacked fair Pangaea. Why can not the forest dwellers be left to live in peace and write some harmonous poems?

Although I have to say the attempt from Atlantis was pitiful. I would love to roll on the floor laughing at that "attack", but honestly, the attempt was so sad that I am simply too embarrassaded on behalf of Atlantis. Surely sending in commanders *alone* against Pangaea (I mean *Pangaea*, who is famous for eating commanders for breakfast) wasn't that brilliant stroke of geniousness, was it? To make matters worse, the commanders were the damn excellent H3 priests, who was sent for some pretender knows which reason into a province with absolutely zero manikin. For next round, please bring along *lots* of chaff, so that you wouldn't have to face similar embarrasments again; losing thugs to PD Harpies is possibly the second worst fate of any wanna-be hero (the worst fate would be to get kileld by markata PD...) after all.

On the other hand, I am quite impressed by the Abysian effort. Ok, so Abysians made some blunders too (and I am most delighted for that, the charts would look so bad without them), but I have to say that attack by 34 commanders (I suppose that is about every single warlock Abysia has ever recruited, right? I certainly hope no unscrupulous nation will take advantage of such a silly concentration of commanders so far from home) supported by a huge (for non-Pangaean standards, that is) army was excellently performed. I lost nearly two percent of my armies, and it hurts me inside Free spawn have feelings too, you know

The 'warlocks' who can fly and thus zip back to the other end of my empire a turn or two, you mean?

The people of ulm call to the rest of the living world, we are slowly destroyed by the ermorian onslaught, and if no one will help us, we will soon be death. And i think i talk for everyone of the living people that the ermorian plague mast be stopped before the whole world becomes a place where only the undead walk.

[Agema]

Ermorian onslaught? Foul, treacherous lies!

Twice Ermor has had a surprise assault launched against us. Firstly by Mictlan, then at the end of that war, Ulm sought to crush our exhausted forces. Ermor has been on the defensive throughout; three times Ulm has besieged and stormed our northern fort and three times narrowly been repulsed; even now, Ulm holds territory that was Ermor's prior to their sneak assault.

If the tide has turned, it is no less than the cowardly opportunists of Ulm deserve!

Ah, but the warlocks have to have wings to be able to fly, no? There is always the danger of wings getting cut once the abyssian demons meet one of the proper Pangaean armies. It is unfair that the Pangaean PD always have to bear the brunt when evil nations attacks, but the harpy spawns have proven their worth tim and again; yet do not expect such an easy joy-ride in the coming battles. There will be blood and there will be splinters, mark my words!

Atlantis commanders weren't actually attacking, they were fleeing C'tis capital, and had nowhere to go, so I thought this was as good a place to die in as any other.
