Turn 38
Research in construction reached level 8.
1 blood slave was captured in Gol Ryepe and 11 in Gol Phalas.
3 Vine Ogres were summoned in Kolermegor.
Acashic Record cast on Sleepy Mountains revealed 2 magic sites – Farm of Plenty (+25 supply) and Bronze Pillar (+1 fire gem).
Some death gems were found in Giant’s Rest in addition to some earth gems in Feldan Forest.
500 additional taxes were raised in Hoburgdorf.
Jotunheim was taken without any resistance.
Rim Mountain was easily taken from the 5 raptors and 8 piketeers defending it for Marignon.
The Marignons tried to break the siege of Marignon with 7 troops, but only succeeded in adding 3 militias and a knight of the chalice (prophet) to my forces.
My forces attacked the Last Pangaean province of Stone Wood Waste defended by 15 satyrs, 7 centaurs, 5 harpys, 1 minotaur lord, 1 tribal chief and the White Bull pretender. The Cief was enslaved and engaged the Mino Lord while the Bull charged my lines while the satyrs were already routing. The Bull resisted 1 paralyse, but the second one stuck. The Chief lost the fight, but the Bull was killed fairly fast by the 4 Greater Otherness and the remaining Pangaean forces retreated. An Arena was found in the province.
Glisas was cured of the limp, but Atlanasha is still feebleminded.

Updated province information:
The large threatening armies of Man and Ulm have disappeared for now, but I am fairly sure that I will see them again.
My Provinces:
Due to the info about my provinces getting longer and longer I will skip this one, too.
Mainly I reduce taxes by 10% for each 5 points of unrest/raise them again when unrest is going down.
I forgot the to recruit the Golden Adept in Old Man Mountains, oh well, this time...
I got a 1W, 3S, 1N, 1B mage who will be empowered to bloodhunt. The Lore Master turned out to be 1F, 1A, 1S, 1D who will research, too.
3 More Vine Ogres will be summoned for 1 nature gem in Kolermegor.
Acashic Records will be cast for 25 astral gems on Rim Mountains and I hope to find more earth gem sites.
The Clam is given to a star child in C’tis, the Skullface is given to my 3D mage who will forge a Scepter of Dark Regency (+3D, unique) for 32 death gems and will raise him to 7D!
Tartarian Gate, here I come, I just need 2 more conjuring now and will put all research into it.
Argh, I keep forgetting that my star spawn mages have no feet, the Earth Boots are wasted for now, but I can still hope for a 2E Lore Master, otherwise the 3A, 1W, 1E one will be empowered in earth, too.
The mage in Kolermegor will grab the 5 Vine Ogres and start to move to the north.
The 3A Lore Master will finish his move to Tiash and the Scout in Gol Phalas will move back to Dunheim to continue his bloodhunt.
The 2 mages in Aran Plains continue their journey to the north and will move to Talito this turn while the 2 armies in Scytha will continue to Abysia.
The mage lead army in Stone Wood Waste will move to Oune and will support my forces close to Pythium with the priest in tow to build a temple there. The commander from this provinces with his slower troops will only be able to move to Rim Mountians.
In Rim Mountains the mage lead army will head to Wicker Woods.
The fortress in Marignon will the stormed by the mage lead armies.
1 of my mages in Jotunheim will pick up the 4 Sea Trolls in Stone Heavens, they other will pick up 3 Trolls in Aenasia while the remaining one will head towards Iron Range. The Sea Troll King will stay in Jotunheim for now and will lead the troops I plan to recruit there (19 barbarians this turn).
The armies in Iron Range, Solam, Bolfagon and Old Forest will stay in their defensive positions.
Glisas will move to Yldmyre to show some presence there.
The mage lead army from Gol Phalas will continue to Gol Ryepe.
A Sanguin Rod will be forged for 4B, in addition to a Clam of Pearls for 8 water gems.
A temple will be build in Hoburgdorf and another temple in Bolfagon, hopefully not provocing an attack from Ulm or Man.
In Abysia 1 commander, 6 heavy infantry and 2 archers will be recruited.
I will buy 1 more starspawn mage, a Lore Master and a Golden Adept.
To be continued...
