Turn Ten

Ominous word from Nanvather in Ulm. The nation of Ulm spans seven provinces, and they seems sure to make their move onto the mainland soon. The better news came from the labs, where word that both Alteration 3 and Construction 1 had been discovered. Now all the nation's best thinkers will be put to devising the best mechanical creations ever seen by man. But first, something must be done about our poor supply of earth gems. I order the philosophers to turn their attention towards thamataurgy for now, and return to construction once they have discovered a means to scour the lands for earth and astral gems. For my plan to work, we will need them, and need them soon.

Andromache, having arrived in Avoca with Syren, sets about building a lab, while Mesthies and his myrmidons move to reinforce the main army. Melas has only one myrmidon to lead at the castle, but as his time is valuable, I do not want to waste him there. He begins for the front, passing through the Isle of White Oak. While our armies take a break from war, the blacksmiths do not rest. In addition to yet another philosopher, four myrmidons will be ready for duty next turn. Soon our forward base will be ready, and the heavy cavalry will be mine.
