Re: Marignon
 

Pythium barely made it. I think he was at the 10 minute mark when he logged in his turn lol.

Re: Marignon
 

Smashed another Abysian army at the gates of his capital, killing many salamanders and imps, slaying a few demonbred... a phyrric victory unfortunately, as my force was so reduced in the battle the subsequent assault went very poorly.

It is unlikely that army will survive another turn, but we are confident that we have done considerable damage to evil Abysia. His military strength is at its nadir...

Re: Marignon
 

They were all expendable troops.

If you didnt notice I have arch devils and golem production starts next turn. The army you killed took 2 turns to make thats all and your army is basically dead, or will be on the new turn. The rest of your lands will fall after that since you really have no other forces. It really was a phyrric victory for you.

Abysia - EEEK!
 

Eeek!

Re: Marignon
 

Heheh I noticed you have 3 Arch Devils, but that does not an army make.

Actually I am confused as to why you are so weak. You have not been able to beat my armies in the field, and your best tactic has been to mass cast remote imps. Where are the swarms of blood summons? Where are the ranks of Lava Warriors and Abysian Infantry?

Of course I will succumb to TWO opponents. There can be no doubt about that if no one comes to my aid. What can one do? Were you my only opponent, Aku, things would be veeeery different. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Marignon
 

If you were my only opponent I would of focused more militarily. I am only doing the war with partial attention and basically just aiding Tien Chi as my contract with him dictates. Why should I waste a lot of resources fighting you when I dont have to?

Re: Marignon
 

Clock is reset.

Pangaea has an excuse, he is moving to a new place and asked for extra time. Pythium though man you almost stale every turn!

Re: Marignon
 

Good to know http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Methinks he doth protest too much.

Perhaps I should be clearer: I have you VERY well scouted, Aku... and you dont have much military strength at this time. Further I doubt TC paid you 100 astrals to be merely a nuisance to me. Your losses in this war so war have been high. Certainly much higher than mine! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Thats not to say in 15 or 20 turns you wont be an unstoppable juggernaut. I think if you play your cards right, you will be.

Re: Marignon
 

I think my raiding has done its job of crippling your economy and causing unrest everywhere. If TC didnt have me and you fought him alone TC could of been in a bit of trouble.

Anyway all my development has finally paid off and production of my new toy will be starting shortly. And I could equip my AD's into SC's but I dont want to risk them against high str units such as the jotums.

Re: Marignon
 

Good banter, boys.

Re: Private Message
 

Nooooooo.
I have to leave for camp on sunday.
And mean while I am reclaiming my capital from the dirty sneaky pyths.
My camp is a "computer camp" meaning they have computers.
It is possible that I might be able to continue from there.
But it is also possible I could not.
So I was wondering if it would be okay with you guys If I did not go AI, and then atempted to continue at the camp. If I did not, I would stale and then could you guys set me on AI?

Re: Private Message
 

Thats fine Ribbon Blue.

Re: Private Message
 

Another victory over the evil armies of Tien Chi! For the second turn in a row the enemy is thoroughly routed. The fire-blessed Red Guards and Celestial Soldiers did manage to inflict significant casualties on the nature-blessed Herses and Woodsmen, but the cost is easily bearable, with fresh troops flowing up form the heartland every turn.

Of course, it seems there is no end to these Tien Chi armies either, but their eventual victory shall be dearly bought!

Re: Private Message
 

Hmmm interesting to see that making the hellsword do -10 damage was not quite enough to adequately nerf it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

At least that Golem did not completely blenderize my army... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Private Message
 

Jotum probably has to best chance against a hellsword golem because you can actually hurt it at 26 prot and give it afflictions. Now I have to summon a new one this turn and transfer the gear and heal the afflictions of the old golem which will take a few turns and give him new gear. Bah the hassles. Anyway I have another sc coming your way but hes not a golem. One that will theoretically do better than the golem.

Soapy did the troops that routed die because I dont see a province they could of retreated to?

Re: Private Message
 

Hmmm ... a golem you say? I guess astral weapon reared it's ugly head. That is a pity. It was one of the openings Zen left in the mod.

Re: Private Message
 

Seems like a fair opening, since you have a counter with magic duel. (and for the golem, other counters as well). Anyways, I don't think the idea was to completely eliminate life drain weapons.

Re: Private Message
 

My capital shall be reclaimed.
I teleported my oracle into next to my capital(owned by pyth) then bought mercs in that province and invaded my capital to recapture it!

Re: Private Message
 

Aku: Why would I tell you what happened to my army if you do not know? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Are golem's magic beings? If so then its time to forge some moonswords...

Re: Private Message
 

Another great victory for the forces of Soapyfrog!

Once more the main hosts of Jotunhelm and Tien Chi clashed on the field outside the fastness of Narfell. The Green Dragon of Soapyfrog and the Red Dragon of Yuck Fou had both taken to the field to provide encouragement to their respective hosts.

A great cry went up from both armies and the battle was joined. Enormous Herses and Woodsmen swung their swords and axes hewing the ranks of Red Guards and mowing through militia like the chaff that they were. A few celestial soldiers were on hand to bolster the ranks and indeed they held firm for a time as their lesser comrades melted away...

As the TC ranks broke and the Jotuns pursued through a hail of crossbow bolts, Yuck Fou succumbed to the throng that surrounded him, dying for the second time in this ill-begotten war. Desperately the remaining TC commanders attmepted to rally the troops with deed of great courage, but one by one they were slain until none remained. Out of 189 souls, but 32 wretched individuals escaped...

A great victory for Jotunheim! If only someone would aid the noble giants, it is clear that this war could be turned around... alas, with a fresh Abysian army taking the field there can be no question but to continue with a desperate defence, making my enemies bleed for every piece of land they covet!!

Lending a hand....
 

We of Mictlan salute your bravery.

Re: faerun
 

Alas, while valiantly trying to protect the homesteads of the Jotun heartland, the Green Dragon of Soapyfrog has succumbed to one of Abysia's vile and fiendish constructs. He equips his Golems with hellsword, skullcap, marble armour, boots of quickness, ring of the warrior and burning pearl. Then the golem casts astral weapon, making the hellsword armour-negating. Dangerous, and teleportable! Also, non-routable due to the Hellsword.

The thing is not resistant to cold or shock obviously, and as has been pointed out magic duel may kill it. Masses of undead would also do the trick...

Re: faerun
 

I think golems have a 50 morale anyways. They arn't magic beings, unless zens mod changed this. Thats a tough SC to counter http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: faerun
 

Golems never route.

Golems are not magical beings.

Bad thing about golems is their crappy attack rating is base 8 so you need to put a burning pearl and ring of the warrior on them.

Re: faerun
 

Guys. A strange things happend. A seeking arrow did about 32 damages ( 15hp + 17armor ). In normal games it does about 5-15 damages (not ap or an).
P.S. And one more. If arrow kills someone the message has a icon of question symbol (?). During this situation the message has a icon of Pythium's flag.
It's very sad thing. This hero was the last hope for a future war.

Re: faerun
 

Golems will still route if not berserk if they happen to be in the company of other troops/leaders who all die/route. I think....

Dian, a seeking arrow can do a lot of damage in Dom2 (any weapon can) if they are lucky since the damage rolls are open-ended. (er... I think... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Re: faerun
 

I thought that I've seen (non bersker) golems continue to fight after other troops died. Same with gift of reason'd gargoyles and crushers.

Although the routing stuff doesn't always seem to play by the rules... so who knows?

Re: faerun
 

Yeah non berserk golems will not route. Jurri has used them against me armed with blood thorns in Invis Swarm. I will destroy the entire army and it will say Ryleh has routed but the golem stays to fight the entire time.
