Even so, the situation is pretty dire as is. If I had a couple turns reprieve to consolidate land from the (inevitable) domkill and to regroup after wasting away my main army/battle communion, then sure, maybe. Problem is vampires under darkness aren't that useful against smoulderghosts, morrigans, and Fomorians, which is technically my primary defense mechanism after a certain point.

Abysia's raiding has been killer on my blood economy, and my research is definitely starting to lag behind.

Seriously though, I'm going to call it, unless this siege of my fortress results in the total annihilation of Abysia's forces (which I doubt). Then we're talking.

Caelum will be fine. He has weathered the storm and still has provinces with 3-4 dominion (few though that they are)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Even so, my position is pretty precarious right now, considering how crucial that fortress which is being sieged is, and how utterly likely it is to fall.

Pretty much calling it after next turn, unless aforementioned army is vaporized during the storm (which I doubt).

I'm stunned by the misfortune of my mate with the mind hunt !

Btw Legendary you are doing very well, you managed to deal pretty well with my zmeies, i wouldn't have done better, and you did well on the field too.

You are definitely not a noob as far as i can judge.

If our opponents are willing to surrender i'm fine with that i guess bbz will be too :)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

If by well on the field, you mean have my main army murderized by Heat from Hell and Blade wind spam (I really should've rushed Fire Fend and Iron Warriors there...or Gold Warriors [but that's way out of my research league), yeah. Then again, I've got way too many research priorities to juggle, from alt-6 for soul vortex and darkness, blood 5/7 for vampires and vampire lords (and other blood goodies), Const-6, thaum-6,..

I don't intend to surrender quite yet, I'm just expressing the certainty that I am inevitably doomed. I blame my fail expansion phase. :p I'll fight to the bitter end (which, honestly, will come soon).

I have learned quite abit. I.E. Don't switch over to counts for blood hunting if I expect Zmeys to pop up overhead, why my reverse communions keep failing horribly, etc.

I also get to examine the viability of this particular LA Ulm strategy (i.e. abandon national troops, switch over to chaff producers asap). Means abandoning fortune tellers almost right off the bat (i.e. after a death and nature random), but the freespawn chaff does free up quite alot of gold for mages and stuff (also, my first stab at a luck strategy instead of an order/prod strategy for Ulm; the extra gems are definitely nice, I'm just going to have to work on figuring out how to expand faster/establish larger/faster blood economies here).

Well, Arco died without giving us anything.

Hmmm. If I had some artifacts (and gems), there would've been a chance that'd I pull a miracle out of a hat. As is, Fomoria too big, and Abysia too rich.

Also, you're going to need more than a single Zmey to storm my fortresess. :p

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

did he not give you anything?:) well dunno probably he was hoping to stay alive for one more turn or something. Anyways thanks for staying till the end Nosante.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Hi ho the witch is dead! YAY!

Arcosphale is officially the 2nd dead nation and the first dead team.

Hopefully Nosantee will learn a lesson and be more honorable in the future.

罪有應得

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Yeah indeed lol, for some reason i thought it was empty.


Thx Nosantee for this game, you were a great challenger.
Too bad you die this way. I think you are the strongest nation i have seen vanishing by dom kill.
