I dont think that Arcoscephale would agree with that statement.. Perhaps you didnt notice his Province count dropping as well as yours..

Fact is you are both getting it pretty bad.. My better forces are concentrating on Acro now since he has managed to wipe out several thousand of my troops but I dont think he has much chance against my Gatestone army. Maybe I'll take out Acro's forces that are sieging your castle with it so you can get a quick look :D

I did screw up a bit and put some Longdead in that army which is a liability. I learned a while back cheap units like that can cause SC's to route in a battle they would otherwise win. Example being an SC with Wraith Crown teleports in, while he's buffing himself, the undead that the wraith crown spawns get slaghtered quickly triggering an auto route of your SC before it ever starts combat and if it teleported in it may have no where to go and die an idiotic death by retreat.. I noticed that before the turn but forgot to correct it. But it was a valuable lesson I learned a while back I thought I'd share.. big part of the Moral of that story is... dont use Wraith crowns on SC's At least if their alone.

Great turn guys. Nice battles. I was a bit surprised by the enmity going on between Ermor and Arco. Speaking of which, you gotta buff those undead Psi. Longdead Horse are great, but you gotta make them more survivable. Sure, you took a lot of my PD only provs, but look what Arco did to you. I will do the same when the time comes. Get some buffs on them!

And sorry about your prophet Sept. Why did he charge into the front like that? He was an awesome commander, and had beat me in all previous battles, but he was way outclassed there.

It doesnt matter. I'm honestly not concerned about buffing them.. they are just trash anyways. You may have noticed that my Army count is not going up or down... I have simply maxed out on both allowable troop count and Reanimation. Anything that dies is replaced immediately. I'll deal with any real threats with my teleporting SC's.. Of course that doesnt mean I'm not starting to add to the threat level of my longdead armies in other ways.

Heh.. If you want one that bad I'll get one this turn. :D How about equipped with Forbidden light, The Ark, Flesh Ward and some other fun stuff like that :) too bad I dont have the Aegis for him too.. :( I think thats always like the FIRST thing that gets forged if able..

Re: MA Newbie game - Faltering_Steps - Running

Psi, great posts, but you know you are a ham, eh? I have not even begun to fight you yet.

Perhaps I will summon the Great Lord of the Abyss this turn.

:( And here I thought I was a turkey... Gobble Gobble Gobbling up your land :D

Re: MA Newbie game - Faltering_Steps - Running

Hey folks, bad news... or rather, good news for me, bad news for the game. I've had a trip to Ireland materialize out of nowhere (no, this is not just an excuse to run away from your gateway stone army Psisoldier... although I'd like to...) and I'm leaving on the 19th June, and returning on the 12th of July. I'd imagine that means a sub needs to be found. Sorry about the short notice - I only found out yesterday that this trip was going through after all.

Damn you Lingchih!(shakes fist). For this you shall taste bitter waters.

Re: MA Newbie game - Faltering_Steps - Running

I'll see what I can do about finding a sub for Arco.

I noticed he had a chest wound. Chest wounds make you build up fatigue very quickly. You generally do not want a chest-wounded guy going into combat, unless he has some really good re-invig items. Your prophet was close to passing out by the time he got to my lines. After 100 fatigue, even my little wolfies could hit him.
