Actually, now that I look. I dont even see how to disband troops. Is that not even an option in this game?

No, you have to kill them off somehow. Drowning them is a good option, but probably not for your undead.

I've had the same problem with reanimating manikins with LA pangaea. I'd end up with so many, I couldn't even see them to select them, much less move them.

I can't really say at this point... it could be the light at the end of the tunnel, or it could be the train coming at me. It's interesting though.

At any rate, I will need a big pushback to make it happen, and that's going to be difficult.

Hmm. Lost a battle I could really not afford to lose. It's looking pretty grim now... that light in the tunnel I saw was indeed a train coming. I even lost the prov count total.

Still, I have one more thing up my sleeve. We'll see if it matters in the long run. If I cannot drive you back, Psi, it's probably game. Even if I lose again, I could probably slog it out for 20-30 more turns. But that's no fun for anyone.

I'd assume you are talking about lilly valley eh?

Smooth move using the ghost riders to make you waste your Fire storm and all that wasnt it

Went pretty much as I had planned it.

I did still loose about a thousand troops there though so it wasnt completely one sided.

A thousand troops to you, is like, a drop in the bucket? Yeah, Lilly Valley was the battle I could not lose, but did. I've got a few more tricks up my sleeve, but not much.

You are very close to my cap now. Take it, and I will give you the win. Beware though, there are hideously strong mages in my cap.

And I do control all the southern provs, and they have a lot of blood.

Yeah, a thousand is pretty much like a drop in a bucket considering that in many many provinces where they are being reanimated I have usually between 1.5 and 5 thousand in reserve at almost all times, but still I have to regroup troops and send commanders back to get more.

Yeah, if it wasnt for all the blood that I know you have I'd probably just teleport my pretender on your capital and take it with her, but that would be a good way to get banished. Assuming I didn't bring enough extra troops to be the target of such spells.

Oh and I went ahead and submitted the next turn. Maybe we can speed this game up to its conclusion and get another turn in over the weekend, not that it matters too much.

At this point I really want to just have my new armies that I was talking about ready and try them out a couple of times.
Ive got just a few preperations left to make for them. but they are pretty much ready. They just have a few weaknesses that I havent addressed yet.
