I'm Agartha

Tips to everyone that borders Atlantis and Maverni. They are both grinding down my huge forces but in the end I see no way I can survive and I beleive that quite soon they will break through and exterminate me.

Atalntis and Marverni will eventually break down the forces of Agartha, yes. But a tough battle it has been. With just 5 provinces Agartha is able to create the biggest army on the map. And Agartha has used Agartha's forces very wisely.

Such is the might and valor of Agartha, that it has most impressed Atlantis.Atalntis and Marverni will eventually win, but not without great losses. Atalntis would like instead to propose a truce with the mighty Agartha

Saarud. Despite your comments earlier I thought you have been playing quite well.Your troop setup has been very hard to find counters too.This war of ours has been quite a challenge, and very enjoyable.

Sheap, if you are leaving for a week, what is to become of R'lyeh?

I am away from my server, but not away from the internet, I will play R'lyeh turns from my parents' barn.

So this is the beginning of the end, or at least it is for Helheim. T'ien Ch'i has invaded the nation of Helheim. I knew it was going to happen sooner than later. What is interesting is the reason for the invasion. "We cannot allow you to expand more into Ulmish territory." I believe that is the message I received, word-for-word.

For those who do not know, I was attacked by Kailasa after the initial war between me and T'ien Ch'i broke out. That is in fact one of the reasons I asked for a truce from them. Kailasa and I then started duking it out with quite a few close battles. (Awe is surprisingly effective against Helhirdings.) I managed to whittle them down, and then guess who decided to intervene, Ulm! They saw a nation scarred by war and decided to start taking the lightly defended Kailasan provinces. After all was said and done, Ulm took everything save one province I managed to hold on to, and that province wasn't even the capital! I have not once, after this was done, launched an attack on either T'ien Ch'i or Ulm. Yet, for some reason, the Not So Great Catsby has said that I cannot expand more into Ulm territory. MORE! I have not once expanded into Ulm territory.

I have been insulted repeatedly by T'ien Ch'i and taken advantage of by Ulm, and yet I have done nothing hostile to Ulm or T'ien Ch'i, after our initial conflict. I am the bad guy! Ha! That's laughable! If you want to destroy me, so be it, but don't act like a caring ally. You were just waiting for the right moment.

P.S. I better receive that staff of storms I paid for!

I had no idea that kailasa was at war with you at the time, honestly. It took me a long time to find a province with scouts and by the time I found one I had already started my war with kailasa. You were just a victim of bad timing.

Soon the 3.02 patch will be released. Barring some unforeseen issue, I intend to upgrade the server to 3.02 as soon as it comes out, as it fixes the gateway spells, the Abysian sacreds, etc. without bringing a never-ending hail of Doom Horrors upon the world. I will post another notice when the upgrade happens. If you want accurate battle replays, you will have to upgrade to 3.02 as well.

I have trouble believing this, as it was stated in this thread that Kailasa and I were at war. Oh, and you didn't think I would notice the whole "Helheim's excuses" as the title? What excuses have I made? I am not the one attacking someone.

ooc- Didn't you have something about you and I both attacking the Kailasan capital in the post, and that I didn't just hand it to you? Well of course I didn't! Did I not deserve something for my troubles? I guess your greed cancels out logic?

ic- Even if I would give you the benefit of the doubt, that still doesn't justify T'ien Ch'i's attack. They attacked me to destroy me and that is all. There is no protection of Ulm involved in the matter, because I don't pose a threat to you! At least when I attacked, I didn't try to hide my motives.

With regard to your message, I want my staff of storms!

I tend towards playing the game and not so much the drama so I rarely bother to read most posts here. Though I admit I am reading more often as the game matures.

There is no logic that would validate your childish claims of just deserts in regard to the capitol. This is a fantasy wargame where just deserts play little role in it . The strong persevere, the weak perish. You misplayed your hand both diplomatically and militarily and whining about isn't going to make it better.

I agree this has been a most enjoyable conflict and I have learned alot in Dom3 warfare. My first battle in this Newbie game was my first ever MP battle and it was Maverni who invaded me. They outflanked me with fast Eponi Knight and totally annihilate me I was quite shocked but I had learned that flanks are important (against the computer thats hardly an issue).

in character:
Agartha recognize the strenght of the wet Atlantians and the wild Mavernis and even though the Agarthans would like to live in peace in their small nations the mighty god Saarud has decided that no peace can be brought to the aggressive nations of Atlantis and Maverni that have slaughtered so many Agarthans. The blodshed must continue...

While I really would like to truce both of you that would mean I had to betray either Yomi or Sauromatia, which I both have peace deals with, in order to be able to grow. That doesn't feel right as they both have been good neighbours. I do hope there is no hard feelings, as a newb I am learning alot from these battles.
