You know, I have been watching this game like a hawk, and still was surprised when I saw Abysia was set to AI.

Hmmm.. R'yleh attacks. Soon we will see who has prepared better for this inevitable engagement. Will the horrifying mind-suckers from the deep pluck our feathers and eat our brains. Will the noble race of Mictlan stab out all the eyes of R'yleh's many-eyed monstrosities and dispatch them to another plane of existence. Stay tuned.

Turn in - man I've had some bad luck with submitting turns. Al least I gto rid of another big Ermor force.

Unfortunately the Vanheim capital was destroyed...

Abysia is AI?? Oh noes!

The dweller in the deeps, he who dreams in waves, has seen our victory. R'lyeh rises from the sea like a tide of death. We do feel remorse for the senseless slaughter, but the inevitability of the moment was foreseen even by the barbaric man-priests of Mictlan.

The world will never be the same again. Come dream with us.

So many undead...so little time and income...I fear Vanheim is lost...but we'll fight to the bitter end!

Heh. Well, OOC I will admit you've done damage FAR out of proportion to your size. Why don't you lay down and die already?!? ; )

Seriously, well-played. Between you and Abysia's 600/700 defense castles, this...isn't the cakewalk I was expecting, AI or no AI. My armies wander Abysia's landscape, then lock down on a castle. For turn. After turn. After turn... I have to wear Vanheim down with Mind Hunts and soon-to-come assassinations (oops, did I say that out loud?) before I attack with another army.

I'm also warily watching Mictlan's war with R'lyeh. Pangaea had Mictlan down to, what? FOUR provinces? And now I'm watching him duke it out against R'lyeh, wondering who I will end up fighting against in the Final War...

(If your scouts missed the first decisive battle between R'lyeh and Mictlan, at Pan's former capital..... Well, you may not be doing so much wondering.

Unsure what they have left, but following the reasoning that they may be more interested in doing as much damage as possible in lieu of winning - the only army I see now is marching towards my weaker flank, rather than my stronger.

And just to point out, I do feel bad on a personal level, but I cannot let my own feelings get in the way of R'lyahn war decisions. I was fast running out of people to fight other than Ermor - something I'm still not so much looking forward to.

First the mighty Van army will win back their capital, then they move on Ermor!! ...or die trying... >.<

Dear JimMorrison,

That is officially the most messed-up battle I've ever witnessed. To think, I would have won had your Vastness not been paralyzed. Of all the spells to be successfully cast twice, it had to be paralyze. Yet every mindburn happened to bounce right off. Also, your luck with mind blast is amazing. One of these days I will manage a battle where both Air Shield and Antimagic both get exectuted.

In regards to Mind Hunt, you are apparently new to the spell and are unaware of the dangers. It is why I myself haven't mind hunted your mages away. Give my regards to O'ngai, Yarni Zai, Yarni Zai II, Yig Goloth, L'ghux, N'ktun, Swatopluk, and Igg Yad.

Sincerely,
AreaOfEffect

P.S.: Why don't your people beleive in normal everyday names like Chalchiuhtlatonal and Mictlantecuhtli.

JimMorrison · #**130** July 24th, 2008, 12:47 AM

Well. O.O

New yes, unaware of "dangers", nooooo, not that, quite so much. Perhaps unaware of the potential that 100% of them would be found, even with a relative disparity in Astral levels (I sort of assumed that might play a part. o.O).

Oh MAN that battle with the Vastness was epic! I've never seen one of them pull that sort of thing off without dying - just pure insanity.

As for the luck with Mind Blast, it's not entirely luck, though hitting a key buffer to interrupt the script is very nice.

Oh and just so you know, Yarni Zai happens to be the deep one version of Billy-Bob. True story.

<3

Now, where to come up with some more chaff to support all of those mages who didn't die.
