We are very sinister indeed, both of us!
Prepare to perish.

I think this game was decided by Turin's good play and the fact that Jurri survived, and fed Turin from what I understand, for the whole game againt 3 nations. How is that possible? I've never even been able to survive a 2 on 1 for very long.

Ygorl · #3 February 11th, 2006, 07:46 PM

Jurri's very good.
Boron wasn't particularly dedicated (though he did besiege Jurri's capital for quite a while).
That's mainly it...

I guess you and Boron are pretty much done for? Whollaborg and I aren't completely defenseless, though Turin may still walk all over us.

Yeah, I'm done. Turin just took my capital. I don't know about Boron, though.

I'll have to remember the Stream of Life spell. My Moloch had a 25MR and went down to the 2nd or 3rd spell. He was lucky, too. That was the 2nd time he died that way.

Good luck against Turin

Huh... It's supposed to be an MR negates spell... I wonder if it (like Paralyze?) has a secret penetration bonus?

Turin · #6 February 11th, 2006, 08:41 PM

hmm it is an aoe 1 spell. So maybe something with less MR was targeted and the moloch was caught in the radius. Still the spell is too powerful, even with MR negates. It has range 35 and nature certainly doesn�t need a powerful anti SC spell.

I am done too. It's frustrating to march vs. someone who has demilichs too when you are ermor

. Wither bones here, wither bones there, wither bones everywhere

.

Good Luck vs. Turin Ygorl and Whollaborg

blah I wanted to upload my turn, and now it says 48 hours until next hosting. so a stale for me. Sucks when you have spent more than an hour doing the stupid turn.

Turin · #9 February 13th, 2006, 11:15 AM

heh I just noticed that all of you were online when I finished my turn for real this time. Shall we continue the game at blitz pace?

I'm sure my gems amounted to little; there was a bigger batch of air and earth gems in the hundreds but other than that only a small trickle. (If I remember correctly.) I even managed to destroy a... soul contract, was it? by accident by flooding Turin's lab with sanguine dousing rods

So, I might have been something of a hindrance.

Boron only had one small army facing me, even though I liked to exaggerate his involvement. Ygorl was in a very weak situation and quickly neutralized for a while. That left me in a situation where I couldn't stop Whollaborg's impressive assault while Ygorl slowly took his lands back: in the end I survived so long only because they both took the assault so methodically, without rushing anything. Or so it seemed to me.

So, thus dissected, it really is nothing extraordinary to just linger on.
