Newbie Game EA (Running)

[RamsHead]

Congratulations, though I can only imagine the warped world you must live inside your head, Catsby.

ooc- Interesting game. I wonder if Vanheim will be able to overtake the T'ien Ch'i-Ulm alliance? Perhaps the alliance will not last that long anyways.

[FrankTrollman]

Ours is not the only power bloc that could accomplish something. We note with interest that Sauromatia still has an army of over 400 men poised to strike at our empire. And while we don't doubt our abilities to take such an army, the deaths will be staggering. Further, there is still Abysia - a proud and flaming nation to the East that continually marches armies up and down the border. It has no escaped our notice that they are seemingly winning a war against Pangaea (though a very bloody one from the look of it). Should they succeed in conquering that territory, I am unconvinced that Vanheim will still be the biggest individual position.

Finally, have you seen the armed forces of Yomi? Undisciplined and stupid as Oni are, it was nonetheless a ravenous horde of riffraff sufficient to conquer lands once belonging to Mictlan. That's not an inconsiderable military force either.

Ulm and myself have between us been the death of three false gods: Xennon, Joepas, and Aeforge. Isodea is clinging to life by the skin of her victims. But there have been seven eliminations so far, and Dreamslayer has gone AI. These next few turns will see the death of two more false gods, and still less than half the dead gods will be at the feet of the Ulm-Tien Chi alliance.

While Ulm, Tien Chi, and Vanheim are the most powerful nations by most accountings, there are still several nations which have shown themselves a power in their field.

Oh right, I'd completely forgotten about the Maverni/Atlantis Agartha kicking fest over there. That'll amount to quite a bit once they can finally put Agartha away.

Times are dire for Pangaea. If Tien Chi or Vanheim is interested in offering protection in return for our nation becoming a vassal, send me a private message and we can work out the details.

Sauromatia has an army poised to strike at your empire? You've captured half my provinces and are camped adjacent to my capital!

Truly Catsby is a master of weasel words.

[Ironhawk]

Congrats to all the surviving players at this point. With all the dying off, this game is rapidly approaching the the border b/w mid and end game. I expect you will start seeing more heavy magic and SC summons and whatnot now.

Also, I wanted to take a moment and point out that both Helheim and Nefeilheim are dead, are they not? When this game began everyone thought they were unstoppable. Now you see how quickly a nation based entirely on a bless can run out

[Stryke11]

Well, Vanheim is apparently doing very well, and they took out one of the other bless nations themselves (Neifel). Helheim wasn't a heavy bless, accoding to their player, so they don't count.

[Sheap]

Helheim didn't really play a bless strategy, and Niefelheim was destroyed by Vanheim, who also had a bless.

Not saying that blesses are unstoppable, but this game doesn't say much about the subject...

Agartha will never be put away. Maverni is still besieging my capitol but they destroy my walls at a slow rate and I hope to be around for abit longer. Atleast I am tying up some of Mavernis troop. Any enemies of Maverni/Atlantis can with small gifts to Agartha stall a large part of Maverni for a considerably amount of time.

Abysia desires earth and nature gems along with blood slaves. We have a huge (well over 100) suppy of water gems to trade
