mid_Unlucky game on Gandalfs server (started)

[jutetrea]

talk about a nerve wracking battle - Jolly blue giants hit my prophet with a vengeance of the dead... about 70-90 undead spirits. My poor prophet who was laden with 2 nice artifacts was down to 4hp due to dominion. Thought for sure he was a goner, but I guess those little ones are pretty weak and go down to banishment pretty well. Needless to say, the loot has been divvied up

Okay, I can access the server again. Thanks! (Or thanks internet for fixing yourself, if Gandalf didn't have to do something).

The Ancient Gods of C'tis shall crush the ugly demons of Mictlan! The Defense of Cedar Box is but a taste of what future the foul demons of the jungle have waiting for them. Come and face us in open battle! Enough of this sneaking around terrorizing unprotected villages. Come and face the might of the C'tis Legions, you cowardly demons hiding in the night! Don't make us chase you around!

In case you didn't notice, we prefer it when it's nice and toasty. And as we're not fond of getting our bones broken by your towering titans and evil magics, you'll just have to try and catch us!

Don't worry, we will put your (former) villagers to good use. They were just lazing around anyway.

The Giants are dumbfounded (and a bit depressed) that the prophet of T'ien Ch'i survived our attacks. In truth we only have ourselves to blame. We should have sent another vengeance his direction last month and finished him off proper.

Level 4 priests tear up the undead chaff with banishment. Still, he was down to 97 fatigue at the conclusion of the battle. Another 10 soulless and he would have been a goner. A second vengeance with 150 or so soulless would have killed him with ease.

Equally remarkable, that lucky dirt farmer also survived multiple plagues and an extremely cold winter (which killed off a large number of the regular troops) with only 4 h.p.. Not only did he survive, but somehow, he also avoided catching so much as a sniffle.

Bad omen indeed. Even worse than the forge of the ancients, and the dozen or so Tartarians along with their several hundred closest friends about to storm our capital.

BTW: Where does one acquire shadow seers? There are sure quite a few in the motley mob laying siege to our capital.

Shadow Seers from a site, can't login atm so don't know which one. Pretty nifty and not too expensive.

Yes, very lucky... talk about a stressful battle, and yes the fatigue was noticed. I'm surprised the high fatigue didn't lead to 1 measly hit...would have been a crit and probably over the 4hp.

And yes, the plagues/winter were extremely painful. I would have been very disappointed if I got the "defenders are repairing faster"... its a lot of effort to get troops over there.

Bob is now in mortal danger. The T'ien Ch'i horde is pouring over the walls.

Our Hags made sure to finish of the T'ien Ch'i prophet last month, but alas, it was a month too late. The prophet had already distributed the key artifacts in his possession. We fear that the Sword of Aurgelmer and the Sword of Injustice will prove to be our undoing in the coming month.

Our fate is sealed. Our only hope now is to die with honor.
