My Babel Fish seems to be malfunctioning. Is "border incident" Ermorian for "bloody invasion"?

LOL, I lost control of my eater of the dead, and it wiped out my entire army.

Um, that thing was pretty terrifying a few turns ago, according to my scout report. I'm afraid to think what it's like now.

I was trying to figure out why there was a lone EotD on my border...

One of my astral mages ("The Grendel Slayer") is going to try to explode his brain remotely this turn. Hopefully, it has one.

I think it has more than 1000 hit points so even a successful Soul Slay won't do the job (only 999 damage). Plus on my scout report it had a magic resistance of 29 IIRC so don't expect a quick kill even if it is killable that way.

I was thinking that maybe with enough mages casting entanglement and paralyzation I could keep it locked down long enough that it would autoretreat and die, assuming I can grab the province it just left. Hopefully I won't have to try.

I think that Eater of the Dead is my favorite unit, although I have seldom been brave enough to make one.

Arco, you'll pay for unleashing that abomination on my lands!

Re: Santa in the Chimney - no diplo mp game, 6/6, starting
 

Hm, protection 7 - should be killable with a few hundred archers. Once it gets out of that lake, of course. You wouldn't want to take a swim there!

Re: Santa in the Chimney - no diplo mp game, 6/6, starting
 

The menace is no more!

We fought it again at the bottom of the lake, but this time we sent in a few more squads of undead horsies to distract it while my wraith lord pounded it in the face until it got bored and ran off to it's doom.

I thought I was going to have to build a small army of thugs equipped with soul-slaying x-bows to take care of it, but I got lucky it went back to the lake.

Note: this thing is scary to fight on the surface where it casts acid storm.
