Silent Seas AAR

[st.patrik]

Turn 16
Again an uneventful turn. Another 5 blood slaves. I wonder if Caelian virgins have wings...

Caelum didn't even try a counter-attack this turn. Ananda is moving north towards the lone Caelian province. Devasura is turning his attention from blood hunting to preaching. Anuprabha is searching to see if the border provinces have any secret magical sites. I am recruiting another Yakshini to help with research and site searching.

All is quiet...

Is it calm before storm? Dun dun dun!!

These AARs are -very- enjoyable. Thank you for the effort in putting them together. They make the wait for Dom3 release both more and less bearable at the same time. ;-)

Of course it has an effect (unless some bug has appeared). The white one might reincarnate, in name and body (although the body might be a lesser or greater one, dependent on the karma of the white one). Or become one with the awakening god, increasing dominion.

Really, it's the little touches about this game I love the most. They give it flavor that just can't be beat.

Very, very cool.

Guhyakas and Yavana's ook like solid units.

Now I'm wondering if that's intentional or not

[Nerfix]

Eh, it's unintentional.

Turn 17
I was worried this month when the first scattered reports came in: people from my border with T'ien Ch'i reported an attack. Upon further investigation I found out that there was indeed an attack, but it was a magical attack of black hawks sent by Caelum! Thankfully I was able to beat off the attack easily - Anuprabha was in the province at the time searching for magical sites and organized the defence. This did not prevent him from completing his search: he found a particularly productive farm (able to feed 50 soldiers), and a mineral cave producing a small amount of earth gems.

I got my first look at the Vanheim war machine this turn: Balakrit witnessed Vanheim taking over an independant province. It was an interesting fight - a horde of Van Hirdmen against a troupe of war elephants. I thought the elephants were going to take it, but there were just too many Hirdmen in the end.



Ananda has worked his way north by now and is preparing his attack on Caelum's last free province. Should be a cake-walk. Devasura's preaching reduced Caelum's dominion in their home province from 8 to 7 - still a long way to go. My new Yakshini, Asisa, arrived, but I am giving her the task of helping the Yogis with their research this month. Next month she will lead out a contingent of Yavanas to the border with T'ien Ch'i.

It's a Vanir human wave! =O

Good going. So, when are you going to make a final move against Caelum?
