Never play a turn when you have had a bad day and are tired.
Did everything wrong. KNEW an Abysian army was headed back to the Tir capital, but attacked anyway. Slaughter.
The other army was set to Storm Castle. Sent well over half its forces away on 'errands' and the rest just...charged.
NOT a good way to fight Abysians. More slaughter. Except for the 55 Archers who were set on 'Fire and Flee' (they were to raid this turn). THEY got away...
And my Prophet...can anyone tell me why a Prophet would choose to Spam Elementals when he could cast Smite instead? Knocked himself out (only an E1 Mage) and died in the rout.
I had been having him cast Summon Earthpower first but did not since it was 'just' a Storm Castle battle. Had I done that he would have lived, so again, I was too tired to play all the angles.
Did not really think that 80 Abysians would attack 200+ Ulmish troops. Set up properly I could have won the fight. reinselc took a HUGE chance and it paid off handsomely.
