Well Stormcrow I kinda feel like Napoleon in 1815. Prussia/England/Russia played by Caelum/Ulm/Marverni. So I have to attack or just be ground down.
Caelum has about 200 troops and 10-15 mages after me, you HAD about 300-350 troops and Marverni has 400 or so. So I need to win 3 or 4 more lucky battles just to survive. Maybe TC will get big enough with you 3 distracted to become a threat.
Looks like you did unto Marverni what you did unto Ulm. We'll need to contact Wellington and arrange for a face-to-face at a little crossroads named Waterloo...after all, anything with Water in it MUST be bad for an Abysian!
