Abysia CB 5.0 AAR

[RedRover]

TURN 19

Oceania outbids me on the Fishermen, so my troop situation is going critical fast. On the other hand, Orion is up, and I intend to bid high—I could use his punch for expansion in the north. If I can cobble together an army of Mercs and Independents in the north, use the Abysians of Second Army to bolster the east, and build a fully Abysian Third Army in the capital, then I should be able to continue expanding north and west. I can’t move east before building a fortified base of operations, and I still have the Longdeads in the magic site on the island to deal with.


C’tis is expanding north along the east map edge, I think. My assassin spotted a Temple of theirs south of the first province I found, so I’m betting their capital is south, rather than north. The assassin moves south, leaving behind a force of 40 C’tis Militia and Tomb Worms. Tomb Worms, drat. I was hoping that C’tis would be the default nation, but apparently not this time.

I am completing Blood 3 next turn; I put the rest of my research into Construction. If C’tis turns my way, a decent item or two could be the difference between standing and folding. The Manticore has already turned from remote search to research, so I’ll build a Druid to bolster my future Citadel site and handle remote Nature scrying in his time off.
