Also, congrats to LA Ermor for staying in the game so long. Generally they are extinguished by this point.

Ermor is wedged in the very northwest corner of the map, and no alliance could be formed to fight them. Being so geographically confined really concentrates both their defenses and dominion spread.

It'll be interesting if all the C'tis nations stay till the late game, since there is no difference in the banners at all.

The Great Empire of EA C'tis looking for some earth gems. We offer death and maybe some astral in return.

Which secret weapon? O.o

I'm very upset that my Davana, with its lowly 19 MR succumbed to your first (or was it second?) cast..... Even at 19, he should have endured at least a few rounds of spam.

The Rakshasi was even more upsetting though. I have no idea how she got set to Defend, but I'm sure you know she was meant to Hide, and then start picking off your bastard Galdermen.

Of course I got screwed on Air income, so I can't really gear another..... Besides, you may or may not know, C'tis (one of them, I dunno) has decided to join in the war. So your secret weapon - serendipity - has been launched with or without your knowledge, and will signal the end of this troubled game.

I know Lanka are heavy hitters, so it's not like you get a cookie for doing well with them, but damn..... I had such a brilliant start, even going #1 income with 2Turmoil. o.O But splitting my forces between Hinnom (who was almost dead) and MA TC (who was barely there) led to slight defeats on both fronts, setting me up for a horrendous attrition rate before this conflict with Vanheim could get underway.

Oh if only I had those 1000 men that I lost to TC's Fire Arrows and Totally-Random-Full-Spectrum-Evocation-Salvos™, the war would have gone differently..... until C'tis came out of nowhere anyways.

I really wanted to start sort of near Ermor. REALLY did. I had plans worked out for how to deal with them, and then what to do with their Death income once they were dealt with.

Oh well, next time. I'll see you all in hell! YAH!

(not quitting or AI or anything, that's just fun to yell)

Lol... Ermor and one of the Monkey Empires is currently locked in a death grip. It is still in the balance, with the Monkeys having a slight advantage. Tides can turn quickly though, so I guess we will see.

Jim, I can't thank you enough for slaughtering those 200 man. I was trying to get rid of them from the start of the game!!! As you noticed I was trying to starve those bastadrs to death.
Upkeep much smaller now!

I really was wishing that the "mostly militia" was really hiding something awful that would be worth killing.

Oh and folks, now both Midgard and some C'tis or other (MA? south end of the map

) seem to have fully committed their primary armies at the farthest southern reaches of the map. If you were planning to attack them, better move those plans up before they consolidate the rest of the once rich lands of almost peaceful Lanka.

Ugh. Well played battle Jim, I clearly came at you with too little force.

At any rate, I'd like to request an 8 hour extension please. I will do my turn as soon as I get home from work.

Well, the fact that you caught me off balance with your first strikes, and then the stupid errors I've made since, made you a bit overconfident, I think.

Though I think it was stupid that my pretender would only get off 1 Earthquake and go to 174 Fatigue - not even hurting your army.

I still don't understand why her Fatigue wasn't half that, and then she'd cast again. I'm glad she didn't since you had Fog Warriors up, but meh.

Otherwise you've been running roughshod over my forces, so I will call it a silver lining on my coffin.

Oh if only I had focused on Hinnom first, then squashed TC. I think my Blood hunting would have gotten into high gear fast enough to make this a much less one sided conquest.

It's I who should be congratulating you, for coming from such a mediocre position at start, to having all your ducks in a row in time to wax me handily.
