Re: Standards - MA Game (running)
I'm going to be honest. On the first examination of the turn I didn't even notice your attack. This is in no way my attempt to be rude, but I had bigger concerns at the time.
I don't want you to leave the game without taking something from this experience. My greatest pleasure was in seeing you choose the master lich as your pretender. It is such a wonderful pretender in my opinion and really deserves more praise then it gets. However, I feel you didn't use it to it's fullest potential. The master lich is the sort of god you send out naked with a bunch of chaff to cast some horrifying battlefield spell and then script to attack so that he dies from a short sword wound. Dying while in his own dominion is honestly the best thing that can happen to the master lich once he's done his thing. For him it's like a free teleport spell back to his capitol. Combine that with the ability to cloud trapeze or teleport and you can strike at armies on opposite sides of your dominion in consecutive rounds. In your case you could have sent out your god in repeated attempts to whittle my army down and assess my forces. These free attacks could have allowed you to see some sort of hole in my strategy. It might have made you avoid blade wind in preference to some other spell.
I less-then-three the master lich to a degree that I'm sure you can't comprehend. Unlike every other person in this game who prefers that damned great enchantress. Three of them, how in the world can their be three of them! Let's also not forget Ry'leh with his stupid wyrm! In the same way I love the master lich, I detest the wyrm. Don't get me wrong, it is a good wyrm as far as wyrms go, but for god sake it has a head where it's $@# should be!
Thank you for playing till the end. I very much like to see someone with tenacity. It reminds me that next time, when against the same opponent, things won't be so easy.
