VampireBat - LA game for new players- started

[James243]

Oh, sorry... On my way home from a hockey game of all things... Will try to get it done tonight new York time but certainly in the morning. Aezeal,I'm being quite honest, I don't think this game would have been quite as fun with a different neighbhour. Part of me is now thinking it would be good UN
Training...

[Aezeal]

Hehe I'm so gonna enjoy destroying someone who puts his own pride above the needs of his nation, mr dictator, prepare to go down. And dictators are not allowed in the UN so no good training for you.

People of arcocephale rebel against your egoistic master who sacrifices you for precieved slights against his person.
He has openly admitted rejecting peace offers against his better judgment just because he's to proud to give a conquered province back to it's rightfull owner.

And WORSE: he's slow doing his turn, as if his crumbling empire needs that much management.

PS manticore steak is delicious

yikes...touche!

lol... yeah, looks like my goose is cooked...and yes, most of your accusations are probably true! There's something about your posting style Aez that brings out a very petty side in me! Ultimately to my detriment, but I daresay also to yours. But early on I saw you as the leader which is why I attacked you in the first place - that was good honest strategic thinking. And we've had some entertaining battles, and I think one of the best things about a game like this is the characters of the players themselves.

Well, like I say, I think Khan'Gar is soon to be off this mortal coil, but it really has been fun!

[Aezeal]

Something about my posting style has that effect on more people.. that is how I splitt the chaff from the grain... or better the truly righteous defenders from tyrants

I must admit it's also why I get attacked a lot probably but I fear that is the way of the world

PS since Khan'Gar is coming northwards as we speak I also think you are trying to position yourself in a underdog position.

Einheres like stake too if patala does the turn we can see who wins... that battle will be close (I can't remember what you had in your castle )

[James243]

Well, thanks for being a good sport - better than me I fear! If I end up losing to you Aezeal then it will have been an honour and it will have been because I was out-thought - I'm impressed at how easily you figured out how to beat my province defense for example

Can't wait to see this turn...totally forgot (again) to put my defenders on 'patrol' instead of 'defend'. All a good learning experience...

And me trying to be an underdog? Well, maybe... lulling everyone into a true sense of security would be closer to the mark!

[Aezeal]

well I thought the battle against the PD was a disaster really. I lost troops while I wanted the artillery to do the work.. but my troops can't do hold 5x... so I did hold and attack.. which wasn't what I needed for that battle... hope that it'll work better for the next one.
