A crack team of Marverni researchers is attempting to determine what caused a rain of toads in the capital this month. They have not reached any definite conclusions yet, but did managed to locate a surveillance image taken at the time of the event:

The Archbishop has consulted with the Augurors, and quite clearly, we must apologize.

We had no idea that Muppets were involved. Which clearly implies that we must cancel our date with the Secretary, while researching anti-monkeycraft flame pillars and Spandex melting.

Before it's too late.

heheh, I'm not toast or anything (yet) but would like to understand what took place with my commanders in province #22.

A retreating scout had nowhere to go and should have croaked. And every single one of my commanders went into an adjacent province I had control of beforehand - their troops remained in the province (22), which was not under attack or anything else other than the scout discovery. And I'm as positive as one can be that they were under the command of the commanders in question - hardly anything in garrison. I was in the last turn of fortification building and so on. Also, a temple wasn't built that I paid for.

If possible, I'd like to verify this with the previous turn files, vfb, if they are available, please check them out and find out whether that sort of command was sent by me. Let me know. As it completely screws up a turn and a half of funding and can't figure out how it took place. Hopefully I was drunk or something, but. Uh. I'm pretty sure something is goofy.

This is the first hardcore bug I've experienced other than initial scale bugs right off the bat.

(fun fight there to the West though Mictlan! I'm hoping that someday those Jaguars stay in the malls and petting zoos where they belong! *sigh*)

Sorry, I don't know how to analyze the turn files. And I don't keep backups of the turns in games that I run, since I'm in the games. I zipped up the current turn just in case there's anything someone (who is more technically competent than I am) can do with it. It's attached.

Not only that, we have solved the mystery of the photoshopped Secretary! In truth, it is an "alluring red headed Manushya Rakshasi". One of these beasts attempted to seduce a Marverni commander this month.

Marvervi greatly regrets that its Wind Mage foolishly followed scripting orders and cast Air Shield instead of immediately blasting the demon with a Lightning Bolt. We would appreciate a bit more original thinking in the ranks!

Due to recent events, the Marverni nation has ended up with more Hot Delicious Steaming Monkey Demon Pie (tm) than we will be able to consume this month. Since it does not keep well, we invite the other nations of Aran to come join Marverni and have some yummy pie with us.

-- Secretary to the Head Chef, Marverni Nation.

PS No monkeys allowed, unless you are in a pie.

Yeah good battle Ermor, im sure we will have some more. Your magic and archers are potent. I would have lost big time if those jaguar fiends didnt bother your archers that first round.

By the chinny-chin-chin, the valiant forces of Ermor hope to last another season against the onslaught of heretical blood worshippers and their violent were-men.

We shall continue to staunch the flow of their sanguine intentions as best we are able, knowing that Mictlan's temples shall fall, if not to us, than to the strangely obscured large humans that have nobly refrained from aggressing into our hallowed lands as they continue to grow their host to an immense size (the Augurors love bad puns for some reason, that's why we keep them locked up with their reflective pools and bowling balls of scrying). The blood tribe's aggression remains folly.

The Shroud looks to the 2007 Lanka Secretary calendar for sustenance and hope, as well as inquiring as to whether Marveni delivers, as the monkey pie supplies would raise faltering morale.

(was a fun one indeed Tequilich! Sooo close *gulp*)
