Well, 4/12 players left on turn 40, that's a kind of record for sure ^^

Re: Corydalis - running
 

Well, I'm very tempted to surrender this game to TC.
You're the best hands down. Best tactician and now added to that best research with tons of versatile mages, flying artifacts-wielding SCs etc...
Sure I had some small victories but I always seem to fall in your traps while you avoid mines.
And even when you fall into it the AI or RNG takes a hand to help.

That arrow out of a mere handful landing on my adept of iron order, going through invulnerability (25armor!) to feeblemind him before he can triple-earthquake your army...bah. :(
Same as the turn before when a lucky arrow killed the last blood slave supposed to reinvigorate my angel before charging your army at 98 fatigue!?!

Would you believe I purposefully had teleported my god alone on your king of elemental earth, not just to kill him (he fled! have you ever seen a royalty flee before the fight? you lucky monster), but to bait you into sending a bunch of adepts and such to rain some stones on them, which you did!
Yeah that's why she was loaded with earth gems she didn't need in her previous script.
That is, IF the AI hadn't decided they weren't worth a rain of stones and cast some stupid things instead and ultimately kill her...

Do I sound frustrated?
Quite.

But I won't let you have so easy a victory!!! I'm still there and fighting. Come and get more!!!!!!!!! :D

Re: Corydalis - running
 

IMO earthquake will not be so effective against my high defense troops buffed with fog warrior... Anyway, it's quite lucky my black bow wielder hit your adept of iron order before he had chance to deal any damage:D

I think it's far too dangerous to make your pretender (and a lot of artifacts) a bait. Even if your RoS killed all S3 mages except one. he still has ~60% chance to kill her by magic duel.

Now the strategic map is quite funny. Everyone has some chance to win including Ermor. Let's see how things will be going on...

Hey guys,

sorry but I will need a 24h postpone for this turn...and I'll be on the move all of next week so I might not be able to do any turn during that time.
I'll try, as I will take my usb key and try to find a connection but I can't be sure of it.
Can I have a 24h postpone now and a long postpone with quickhost for next week?

I'm really sorry to warn you so late but it's only been confirmed an hour ago.:(

Re: Corydalis - running
 

Sorry, I didn't saw your post in time. By chance, you managed to aviod a stale turn anyway. In such cases, I recommend to post here AND to PM me, since PM are notified to my personal mailbox.

I will postpone the next turns for 140h until the end of the next week.

Re: Corydalis - running
 

Thx Herode.
Indeed I came back home 5min prior to hosting and did my turn in a rush :)

Re: Corydalis - running
 

Ok the game is basically over for me. There really is nothing I can think of to fend of zzcat/TC.
Your last plan against my communion to master enslave that never even went off was simple and brilliant.
Cheers.

If anyone thinks he stands a chance to win, I can play it to my painful death but, I might be mistaken, it seems to me zzcat has this game.

For my education, how the hell did you mind hunt my fallen angel with 25mr last turn? I don't know of any way to go higher than +5 penetration and you had him with a single cast. Pure luck or...?

Re: Corydalis - running
 

The green eye+eye of the void+rune smasher+a bit of luck;)

I don't know if remote rituals get any penetration bonus but it seems the chance of success is much higher than battle magic. Even mind hunts casted by the black mirror have ~70% chance to kill a normal commander...

Re: Corydalis - running
 

I will be out of town this afternoon, please postphone current turn for 48 hours, thanks. I'll try to send my turn in if I can find an internet connection.

Re: Corydalis - running
 

As announced, if noone comes in to say they think they have a chance I will turn AI anyway as you're imo the winner zzcat.
