Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
Dunno whether to count that as a loss or a win. I lost a couple of commanders (mostly Shamans) and about 60 generic units against taking out 8 Eagle Kings, several of whom were well equipped.
Also, my Shadow Blast guys apparently can't aim for crap, since they fired a few times in the opening round and ended up with at least one AOE-10 spell that hit nothing.

Noob Lesson #213:
After a raid, move your unit to a FRIENDLY province, otherwise it is 50/50 that the raidee's rescue team will get to you first! Arghh...

Wouldn't have worked. The rescue team all teleported/trapezed in. I did that specifically to stop him being able to flee. Also, I was expecting you to throw in a lot more Province Defence, hence the Shadow Blast opening which only hit 1 guy.
(As an alternative, I was pondering 2x Seeking Arrow, but that's only 8 average damage and Eagle Kings have 19 hp.)
What annoys me is that your Eagle King raider fled, so I didn't get to loot his items.
Noob Lesson #214: Undead ignore Awe. If your enemy is raiding with Awe units, leave a death mage with summoning orders in every province where you can spare one.
Slightly annoyed that someone else got to all the cool artifact books first. Anyone want to own up to that?

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
We sorta dropped the ball on suddenly ignoring Tien Chi. They've attacked one of my fortresses now.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
Huge success.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Yeah, those are anti-seeking-arrow amulets and robes, and that's three provinces nabbed in one turn, all while repelling an eagle king assault in my homelands.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
Nice victories, over 3 undefended provinces! Awesome!!
Let's look at the stats (attached), one could ask - what took you so long?
I did try to Wind Ride my EK out of trouble, and it was successfully cast - but he didn't show up. Another Dom3 mystery.
Anyhow, the moves are a lot easier now....

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
Gentlemen,
I will not be able to play for one week. Tomorrow, Saturday the 30th until Saturday the 5th.
I have posted for a sub, but gotten no response. Unless otherwise directed, I'll have to turn Helheim to AI and let you two fight it out.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
Well, this is an unwelcome surprise. I don't see any sense in continuing unless there is an active Helheim, who is suposed to be my ally.
So, either we wait a week or stop the game. What do you say Ctis? (victory is within your grasp!).

I'm willing to hold off for a week if you want to continue. Your ally took quite some time to work up enough courage to attack me (or he was just distracted by TC refusing to die, I dunno).

Edit: PS: If you get a sub, make sure they send me their email address so they can get their turn.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
OK, let's wait for Helheim to return to the helm. Have a good week off!
PS
Please make sure that game does not restart until Pablomatic confirms that he is back.
