dmentd asked for some more time for this turn (70) so I have postponed it another 24 hours. 71 will then host late Wednesday.

Forgot to mention it earlier but as per Chicanist's request turn 71 hosting has been delayed until Wed. (23:40 GMT).

Could we please delay this game 24 hours? Real life is interfering with the good life...

Ok, hosting has been delayed. New hosting time is 23:45 GMT Saturday.

Umm.. Valerius, did you see the same battle movie as I did? My battle movie shows me winning the fight, but apparently this isn't the case.

Perhaps it's because I hastily (and stupidly) upgraded to 3.10?

I'm sorry Jotunheim for you being targeted by the Charlie's angels. I though they would be going against the big bad Abyssia.

I do recall reading somewhere that an incorrect version will cause problems with the battle replay (though I think the battle summary is still supposed to be correct). That fight was so close that I could see any glitch in the replay showing a different result.

My replay shows both of us casting our buffs and exchanging artillery fire. Then your spiders and trolls advance to meet my PD and some undead. Your troops are held up long enough that the demons and occasional gifts from heaven take a toll. Still a half dozen spiders engage the storm demons and some trogs on my right flank and the trolls and the king of banefires engage frost demons on the left flank. And this is where I get completely lucky. One of my warlocks gets under 100 fatigue and using the last two blood slaves on the field (actually assigned to another mage) casts infernal prison at the king of banefires. After that the battle goes on for a while, all of my frost/storm demons are killed and many of my mages flee but again I get lucky and the commander with so many of my trogs on guard commander (a dumb mistake on my part - I accidentally had no trogs on attack orders) is killed and the trogs attack. At the end I think the only commander I have on the field is my PD commander.

BTW, the kindly ones had a huge effect on my planning. It was bad enough dealing with all the earth attacks. I got lucky (and Jotunheim unlucky) that he received two of three attacks last turn.
