Anyone else end up with a stale?

I can imagine that may have happened with a few people who didn't get their turn in on time due to confusion or maybe the server not checking the mail first before hosting.

My turn (And my enemies too, unfortunately --; ) went through just fine it seems as I've recieved a proverbial *** kicking in that one turn.

Yeah, if its only a couple of us there's no point worrying about it. Its kinda like an exceptional random event, I guess ;-)

Since you didnt take that beating from me (only got what, an Elephant?), is it save to asume live is good for Tien Chi?

But slowly the monkey poo giant is waking up... beware!

Due to a battle being on my side rather than his side I've got to wait a turn now before I can attack again. I should have been seiging one of his forts next turn, but that wont even be happening for 2 more now due to the DRN hating me. (Why did it even pick my side? 60 vs 150, derp lets have it on 150s side! It's like when you sent five units at me and it had the battle on my side when I sent out my entire 60+ army) DRN hates me this game.

I misscripted one of my communion masters with communion slave by accident which means my eight slaves didn't get reinvigoration. They fatigued out at turn 4 and I lost the battle along with 2 of them.

Basically this turn was a cluster ****. Next turn ain't looking much better either since it'll just be me waiting.

If you didnt like that turn, then this turn must have been pure hell

Basically due to me not knowing that routing isn't determined after each fight he cut off an escape route I figured would be safe.

I lost 16 mages and 100 hoplites in the turn. He's sieging one of my forts too. And your cap ain't under siege anymore. Well, it is, but its just a scout lol. My mages on your side are cornered. If both of you just keep pushing a bit I'm sure you've got me haha.

I still can't believe T'ien'chi went about this the way he did... I mean... Assaulting Arco with traditional armies (90% archers at that!!!). That's insane, its expected I'd have had elephants which would slaughter them and would just trample. I expected his expectation that he didn't have and wen't anti-mage/general army.

Lesson learned. Just mass elephants in the beginning and slowly transition into mages. This game has been a huge boon to my learning that not everyone thinks about elephants from the start.
