Turn 26:

Machaka's fort is ready to be taken, the army is set to storm the fort.

On turn 27 I watch the battle to see this:

I forgot about the dominion effect on prophet hit points :(

But on the bright side....

Crap magic and only 1 hit point before the battle begins?!

Lets look at the hit point summery:

Well he should have 60 hit points.

What about the afflictions:

Mute explains the crap magic (somewhat). No idea at all why he started the battle with only 1 hit point. It didn't matter as the Machaka army retreated and he was trampled by an elephant.

Who see's red? Anyway.....

Woo!

And on the same turn...

So I'm trapped in my new fort by a bunch of raging barbarians. No I'm not, next turn they are removed.

Turn 29 Machaka fights back:

Have at you Machaka!

Among Machaka's army is this guy:

Sorry, I mean this guy:

At least he doesn't have the One Ring, not that it would save him anyway, Ethereality only stops three hits in four :p

Machaka is pretty much done, turns are spent taking their last provinces and preparing for the next invasion target, Atlantis.

On turn the barbarians return to the province of Machaka

And breach the walls on turn 37. I've had the few Guru's who are stuck in the fort casting Summon Apsaras and the barbarians seem content to starve the guru's out.

On turn 36 my underwater attack squad is ready:

My thug who is actually a Nagaraja:

and his body guards:

Underwater indies and Atlantis are no match.

Finally, on turn 37 Granny Rainbow casts:

From here my plans are....

1) To take over Atlantis's fort. My attack squad would have to starve them out so I'll need some chaff to bring the walls down.

2) To support Man in their war against Marignon if they need it.

Re: AAR two biologicals vs three silicones
 

I only glanced but I didnt see mention of dominion strength (candles) when you attacked the Lich. The map view previous to that didnt even seem to have candles turned on for view. Beware of not keeping track of dominions in a game called Dominions. :)

Anytime a pretender or a prophet seems strangely strong or strangely weak, the candles (relative dominion strength) is the first place I look.

Re: AAR two biologicals vs three silicones
 

The dominion was in Machakas favor, there is a pic of the hit point summery for Machaka's Lich and he has a base of 30 plus another 30 for dominion bonus. Its weird.
