Epic Heroes Mod MA game(finished)

Everyone pause and take a deep breath.

Take one turn off from the hostilities and send me gold! My pathetic armies are fighting 80 double 9 blessed vans, and 5 watchers, that despite having 0/2 movement are part of the traveling circus through my lands!

These watchers also have a 25 precision and cast orb lightning(: So we are also accepting rings of lightning protection.

Who was it that claimed that Vanheim's Epic Hero was underpowered?

For those that do not know me-I have a warped sense of humor. I do not really expect any gold!

80 double blessed vans?

Vanheim is still in better shape then I thought. Maybe we should have found a replacement for Foodstamp.

Those watchers hsould not be able to move. Is this an AI bug?

And send some of those vans my way. Machaka is still itching to take down more vans.

I think it is too late to switch back to a player. I had no idea he had 80 either, but he does(:

The watchers moving is an AI bug. The AI ignores 0 map movement.

My position was not all that bad. I didn't have time to check the turn after I staled last time, but the time I staled before that my guys actually won battles

. I built the nation pretty solid, I just don't have time to play it.

I suggested turning it over to the AI because I thought you guys would be more capable of dealing with a normal AI Vanheim and I did not want to place the replacement in a hopeless position.

Goodluck.

I will be out of town from 7/11-7/18.

Llamabeast has graciously agreed to do my turns during my absence. I will brief him as to my diplomatic situation when i depart.

Argh!

Well, as they say, fair fights are for suckers - and taking on two opponents at once is for fools. I gambled on good luck in combat and did not get it - my desperation tactics did not pay off at-all.

Ordinarily it is my policy to burn my castles down and salt the earth when I lose, but I bear no actual ill-will against Mictlan, so I'll leave the north of my empire alone, and burn down the south.

Hopefully Arco will learn why it is generally a mistake to side with the stronger of your two neighbors

Oh wow, that didn't turn out at all like I expected. Pretty much the complete opposite.

*trying to express my surprise without giving xietor free scouting reports pffft

As an aside this is my first bless nation and I'm personally finding really bad scales suck. Completely goes against my normal playing style. I think its just the death scales though as I could deal with the turmoil/sloth/misfortune normally... I think. The death scales essentially force you into courses of action, I don't like that. The income loss has been pretty severe with the plagues and such. In the future I believe I'll stick with growth 0/1, and take a reduced bless.
