Mid Era Game (FRANK WINS)

[DrPraetorious]

I should have gone with the Astral-9/Water-9 oracle instead of the dragon.

Ah well, next time.

That was a cool battle Dr Praetorious, those shadow blasts were nasty, very nasty but then so were my wind guided flaming arrows...

I am going to remember that tactic and use it in another game.

The best battle of the game so far...I may put some screenshots up, I am not very good at screenshots, so don't hold your breath!

I have another army marching from the capital and more shadowblasters just teleported in. Watch this space .

The servants of light, Man.

Mans wind guided, flaming arrows tear into the masses of undead.

Ermor responds with a dozen shadow blasts which tear into the unprepared forces of man.

The order of monks stand firm against the advancing undead horde, knowing it is certain death...

A last desperate volley of flaming arrows fails to stem the tide...

The army of light is beaten, again, how can the might of Ermor be halted?

It's rather remarkable that among all the carnage you inflicted, you did not kill a single Ermor commander! Was this just an aberration? Or was there a reason for this? In a long battle where both sides take a beating, you'd normally expect an errant arrow or spell to do in at least one commander.

Note Ermor's excellent placement of his troops/mages. For example he placed a force behind his mages, so attack rear would not work. Also my longbowman are very, very accurate. With wind guide they had precision of 18, anything beyond 10 is doubled so thats 26 precision, they hit what they aim at! I set them to half attack closet/half fire at archers, a pity there is no fire at mages/leaders order! In retrospect thats why I lost the battle in the end, I set too many to fire at archers. I killed all his archers down to the last man/undead. I should have done 75% attack closet/25 % attack archers...oh well live and learn.
