Alexandria - battle for balanced glory [TC wins!]

[cleveland]

Awesome.

DC, considering you've got the teleporting capabilities, how's about we rumble outside of the gates of Pangaea herself. Province #258: I'll leave the Army of Lead & Fog Warriors at home, you do the same with Master Enslave & Undead Mastery. A glorious finale.

IH, if you've got any ammo you're not expending on TC, I can storm both Werk Enum & The Mirks. Alternately, I can setup an Alamo defense of Mapito Cliffs or even Arcoscephale.

Cheers,

Amusingly, provoked by your slow expansion and my tightening purse-strings, I had already ordered a counter-attack at Mapito Cliffs

The Mirks has only a skeleton crew, iirc. Werk Enum has a skeleton crew with a trick up thier sleeve. Storm them both, regardless.

I don't have the map in front of me but I am itching to use my army in Babylon that was preparing to be the Arcos attack force so hope to rumble somewhere around there as well as utilize the halted Pangean island invasion force.

The Dark Council will be bummed (5 liches geared up for undead mastery posted on all frontiers) but at least they will be excited to be used for something other than boring old Ghost Riders.

Sounds like quite an interesting endgame you all had. It would be interesting if graphs would switch to "on" when the game ends. I'd like to see them.

ssj,
Cleveland is spanking me as Utgard in Kingmaker despite the lessons I thought I learned in fighting against you in Alexandria. I was worried about their low MR so went stupidly with drain and added some astral bless. I thought it was a great choice as I fought Arcos and Ermor and steamrolled them. Then I met the sidhe:

High defense + Eye Shield + glamour + spell stops arrows = Expensive, blind useless woodsmen

Reinforces my own preference to avoid the huge bless strategy which is so fun in the early game but comes back to haunt you later.

You were gearing up for war? Us too!

I'd be able to launch a very strong attack at Pastenna (West of Babylon). If you'd prefer to attack, I could put up a substantially more potent defense at Keban.

In other news, Marignon is advised that a small Pangaean task force will arrive in Chilad, eager to finally spill some of that holier-than-thou blood.

Further, the defenders of Issus expect a full assault by the Agarthan horde. Hold nothing back.

And lastly, Bogarus, kindly choose the target of the Pangaean Elite Amphibious Assault Squadron: Pnophia, Exibothia, or Cyrene?

SSJ! Too bad you couldn't be around for the show. On the plus side, your expert play in Kingmaker has me with quite a leg up over the crafty Utgard giants...

[DonCorazon]

I'll review the map and have battle sites confirmed in about an hour. Someone wake omni up who is probably passed out drunk on a pile of sociological treatises so he can send those iron dragons to TC for incorporation into the hive, er workers paradise.

Pan: I can fight you at 264 just west of Pangea but don't have critical mass to teleport to your capital.

I'll attack you at Keban near Arcos - that has epic clash written all over it.

Mictlan: shall we fight at Dragon Pointe? I give me low odds there given all the blinded vets but would like to take a shot at all your capital forces.

And we'll attack you at persepolis. I know you have something nasty waiting there as you have been dying for me to attack you.

And I will give you a heads up, I coming for Belphegor or whoever that bastard devil was that took down Shaik. He is one tough hombre so we'll see what I can come up with. Oops forgot I don't know where he is this turn. But if you tell me, then I will come for him.

C's eye shields are/were indeed a crafty ploy.

We'll be waiting at both. Be it known that Stay Puft has explicitly banned his troops from any and all "Whole Battlefield" or "Mass XYZ" spells...Pangaea will not lower herself to such base tactics. Besides, the manikins long for a swift death...certainly much better than waiting on the long & mercilessly inefficient lines at the new God's Bureau of Undead Management.
