HYDRANT - PBEM Game - WRAITHLORD WINS!

[PashaDawg]

Oh! So, Wraithlord played a Hey-Look-Over-There-At-Ygorl! while his hands worked overtime for the win! Grrrrrr!

If Wraithlord wins, I think he deserves a gold star, because he jumped in and played someone else's pretender.

Not just someone else's pretender... A newbie playing ME Ulm. That's a special achievement right there.

[Ygorl]

The acute poisoning didn't show up in my battle replay. As far as I saw, he was around at the end of one fight (including not counting as dead in the summary) and gone at the beginning of the next. Stranger things have happened, though, it's true.

Wraithlord has played a politically very savvy game (and not too shabby militarily, either... ) - I don't begrudge him his theft of my tenuous shot at victory at all...

As an aside, Eweirl maybe hasn't been in an astounding number of MP games, but he's not exactly a newbie. He had Dom2 more than three years ago (I know because I gave it to him )

Hey, *Blushing slightly* , thank you guys for all the compliments but it would seem its too early for them. Ygorl has a huge army besieging my (previously his) fort at Arco and has already breached the walls - so can storm this turn, and though I do hope my army there could stop him, its far from certain.

I think Eweirl had a sound game plan and I thank him again for asking me if I want to take over his place.

Also I must admit that up to this point this has been my most aggressive MP game, as I was involved in bitter wars all the way since subbing. First with Boron, I attacked him while still officially subbing and he came about to give me a hell of a fight. I wasn't at all sure I'll be able to survive him and it had taken all that Ulm had to bring him down. Then came skirmishes with Migaaresno and an all out costly and difficult war with Morkilus. This attitude is usually out of stance for me, cos if I could describe my usual playing attitude (in MOM terminology) it would be pacifist, opportunist.

It is very restricting to play as ME Ulm in terms of research and magical versatility so actually I'm truly surprised I had the luck to even get to this point in the game. What's sure is that last turns are very exciting and I hope I won't get smacked in the face by the next player vying for supremacy

Turn 70 is out.

Wraithlord Wins! Congratulations!

Very impressive, congratulations! That last fight with Agartha wasn't even close, though.

Thanks everyone for the game!

And Oceania survived to see the end! I consider that a personal victory.

Here is the turn file for the first fight for Oceania's capital. password: encase
