I saw that fight. That was an awful lot of skeletal horsemen that got shattered.

NGG, Nice playing with you -
Sorry this probably hasn't been as fun as it could have been because I initiated an early war that has stunted both of our developments. I confused MA Ermor with LA Ermor, so thought your death domain and hordes of undead would mean my doom if I did not try to stop you early.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

Thanks Don. No worries, it's all good. I've got to learn to prepare for the early rush, even in big games like this.

Good luck all.

One question for NGG: how did you you end up with a Sidhe Lord fighting for you? The traitorous swine is still running loose!

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

I am back, but I think I will look for a permament sub for Mictlan. NGG, maybe you are interested? You would have border with Don again http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I am in China now and I want to limit my games and I find that one to be really boring, to be honest. Even with some fights in perspective soon I just feel that particular game is rather stagnant.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

Boring!? Well spice it up with some flare...Come on Z - you wanted the huge map...now you are going to leave us all here?

When are you back from China? Or are you there for good? I was in Beijing once - great food, very cheap.

Cheers, DC

Zeldor, make sure to tell your sub to fear Eriu and your army at 54 to just keep passing through the caves - nothing to see in Ermor.

Re: MA team game for new players, new thread
 

No Ermor to see, for that matter.

Hi,

I've got a potential problem with my home internet. It was acting up badly last night, and I don't know it will be fixed by this evening.

If the worst does happen, with 24h I can do my turn this evening, then transfer the file to my work computer and email it from there tomorrow.

Lord Virbius was waved into General Servilius' tent by an awed guardsman. He saluted as the General rose to greet him. "You wished to see me, General?" he said. "Yes," Servilius replied, "I was hoping for a report on how our troops performed during the recent clash of swords with Machaka."

"Well, General," Virbius grinned, "our troops certainly earned their overwhelming victory. The skirmishers were effective in their role, although they suffered the expected high casualties. Our archers performed as we expected, although the Amazon squad taking the brunt of the enemy fire did experience significant losses before their morale broke. The enemy archers suffered rather worse punishment, naturally. Machakan Hoplites in formation resist archery almost as well as a legionary testudo, it has to be said."

"I have nothing but praise for our line troops, who are capable of taking on many times their number of hoplites. The Guard annihilated all who stood in their way, naturally, and the only reason so many of the enemy survived is that they can run like wild hares."

"Magical support was excellent, although the misfires that took out some fine legionaries are regretted to say the least. Adnachiel is very literally a blessing upon us, and his converts will fight on an equal basis with any of our men. None dared touch him on the battlefield, as you well might expect."

"Yes," Servilius agreed "And I'm juat as glad that Angel of Vengeance went off to do his own thing. He made me nervous. I always felt as if something... other... was watcing me when he was nearby". He shook himself, and changed the subject. What should we do about the deicide among our ranks, Virbius?"

As the Emerald Lord drew breath to answer, a sudden breeze blew through the tent carrying with it the scent of spring flowers. Both men paled, as a vast Presence sent its attention in their direction momentarily.

"It would appear that decision has been made for us. He will be ennobled and returned to duty."
