The jig is up, it seems. The Hivemind desires your lands, lapdogs of the Emperor.

The "Emperor" should learn the folly of cornering someone. You earned an implacable enemy by boxing me in like that, and now you must pay!

One of the benefits of having fetid, rotting swamps as your favorite terrain. Nobody really wants the land you occupy.

Now now, let me just put you back in the box, and we can put this tantrum behind us.

Yes... try and retake that fortress. Please?

Haha, it's fine, just trying to make sure no one stales!

Uh oh, I think I'm in a bit of trouble. Triple teaming bastards.

I thought the Emperor was surgically attached to his throne, not on the front lines!

Well, temporarily anyway. Dear lord though, my mages. And I probably should've realized you had plenty of anti-lightning measures given your conversation with Fomoria earlier. :doh:

Well, fortunately for Man, each of his neighbors has reasonably large distractions on their own flanks as well. Still, we really need to snuff him out.

Admiral_Aorta February 12th, 2011 10:45 PM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
I don't think me or Pythium are particularly distracted, since Vanheim is just a besieged fort, although the outcome of Bogarus and Hinnom's war will be interesting.

40 minutes you sluggish giants! Also, peacekeeper, you bastard, we need quick turns in newbswithlowselfesteem!

Did Hinnom end up staling? Bogarus must be pleased.

Admiral_Aorta February 14th, 2011 09:11 PM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
I hope Hinnom isn't letting Bogarus win easily. That would be just awful.

What on earth happened to all of Man's fortresses?

Exterminatus. You didn't think I'd just let you have them, did you?

Which ones? I'm not seeing any difference.

I can't raze that last expansion cause of bogus... And this isn't a capitulation, so my capital still stands. It's just basic strategy.

People were trying to take your fortresses? Man is made for defending fortresses (well, perhaps not as much as my native C'tis... but still).

Admiral_Aorta February 15th, 2011 11:29 PM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
Is Hinnom still playing turns? They seem to be either staling or cutting it very fine.

iRFNA February 15th, 2011 11:40 PM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
That's what I've been wondering. Bogarus, have you seen hinnom moving stuff?

freepower February 16th, 2011 06:14 AM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
I've staled once more but aside from that I've just been cutting things fine, things just got pretty busy recently with real life. Be assured that while Bogarus is basically rolling me, I'm not helping him do it. :P

iRFNA February 16th, 2011 11:22 AM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
The state of the right side of the map is awesome. Although I think bogarus is going to wreck this party when he's finished with hinnom. :(

I'm trying!

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
(sigh)... 18 marshmasters... 15 of them scripted to spam undead for as long as they can... precisely 1 does it. Now most of them are dead. Not that they didn't earn it for disobeying me, I would have just rather they had obeyed my scripted orders and won. Anyone got any clues as to why this is happening? I know Man noticed that there was a distinct lack of undead coming at him as well. All those marshmasters casting the wonderful personal protection spells they have as they hang out in the rear, rather than creating masses of undead chaff to wear down our enemies at the same time that poison is sapping his ability to resist.

Sometimes the AI decides that the enemy army isn't strong enough to waste scripted spells on.

Peacekeeper February 17th, 2011 01:27 AM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
the way the morrigans dropped right on those marshmasters .. i dont think hte undead would have helped.

lwarmonger February 17th, 2011 01:36 AM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
Masses of undead would have gone straight for the morrigans... once the script ran out the mages would have started casting damaging spells while the morrigans were tied up. Fifteen marshmasters spamming undead can do a hell of a lot of tying up, even from point blank range.

theyd start casting protection spells til they were all over 100 fatigue. =)

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
Which is my issue. I want my mages following the script that I set for them! Once that script runs out they can do what they want. Protection spells for a mage that will never be much of a combatant are worthless. Regardless, they weren't even euphamerally acquianted to the script I set them, so it became irrellavant.

someone needs to come kill me already, ive been dead for 20 turns now, not earning any gold and losing 3-4 troops per turn to upkeep costs. Its starting to get pretty ridiculous, lol. Guess ill try to take you out or lose my only army in the process!

I am happy to oblige your first wish!

Only two hours to go, Hinnom...

Thanks for the reminder, fri-saturday is absolutely mental for me and I have an old friend visiting.

That was a monstrous battle, eh Bogey?

It seems that Hell Power actually horror marks the caster as well, I was rather hoping to massively buff my prophet, cast hell power, then horror mark Bogarus's forces.

If nothing else, this game has taught me -

CBM Hinnom < Native Hinnom
Magic Diversity > focusing on national troops

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
Yeah, that was an epic battle. Once again I lost a ton of communion slaves to fatigue :/. Drain and heat dominion sure was on your side, Hinnom.
Also enslave mind spam didn't work out as well as i anticipated.
Guess thunderstrike was the key spell that won me the combat in the end :)

freepower February 20th, 2011 11:29 AM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
Yeah, I had a horrible moment at one point where I realised I basically had no decent way of getting into evocation-spam - in Native Baals are pretty good casters. Also, my whole blood economy was like, meganerfed. XD

Anyway, next time I'll just wait like 3 more turns and get my Lords of Civilisation up, I didn't suspect you had a force of that magnitude about and I thought I could delay you more with raiding melquarts. :(

They will break upon this fortress like water on rock. Pythium's hordes will pillage and burn, we've seen it before. Crops can be resown. Homes rebuilt. Within these walls, we will outlast them.

Admiral_Aorta February 21st, 2011 06:23 PM

Re: NewbsGoneWild: Uninhibited amateur action! [Zeal is its own excuse]
 
I'm not sure why you cast sea of ice Fomoria, I wasn't going to attack you. You've given me a buffer against retaliation from Bogarus though, so thank you.

Yeah, awesome wasn't it? Unanticipated, to say the least. Well, lets see who wins the last battle. Whoever it is will be a cripple regardless.
