Oh,
Another Sneak attack without declaration of war. Let your tall emptyheads come, the taller they are, the harder they fall

Only Knights and Samurai are obliged to declare war. In Mictlan country, it's strictly the law of the jungle.

Default Mictlans Second wave,

Second wave of Mictlan landed southwards. Army was a peculiar one, consisting only of a hundered blessables and 16 turkeys! can you believe? Turkeys turned out to have considerable power in astral and nature paths (3,3) and they scared the [censored] out of the few militia units defending the landing province. Some foul trickery is suspected.

Turkeys will most likely meet the jotuns in few months to come if our defences down under fails.
We dealt with the Jotun attack and the giants are now in flight to cower their asses. Unfortunately we might not be able to follow them because of the grave threat not only to the man but to the to the world. That is Mictlan.

Around 600-800 hundred, mostly blessable troops are aproaching our castle up in the mountains. We cannot tell if we intend to make that castle a battleground our do we have to give the Mictlan more room to manouver. Now their unblessed army is simply staggering. It is led by the horrible djinn from the bottle and it is followed dozens after dozens of mages of considerable might!

The doom of all is the avalanche from the wicked jungle!

Horrified for the World,
Zhukov in a humble request of aid

Default Re: Mictlans Second wave,

The turkeys of Mictlan were sent on a special mission to apprehend two heroes of Man who are suspected of possessing various contraband, including Magebane, Virtue, the Aegis, the Tartarian Chains, The Sickle Whose Crop is Pain, Aseftik's Armor, Krupp's Bracers, and other toys that rightfully belong in a museum instead of being hoarded by Man. The lands of Man are vast indeed, that they span two continents, and range from the mountains of the far North to the deserts of the Southwest and Southeast!

Ships are too damned expensive to make, and Mictlan would never dream of disturbing the neutral nations lying between us. So, flying turkeys was the best we could do on short notice. However your heroes were nowhere to be found when we arrived.

We were very impressed by the spirited defense your Mother of Avalon mounted against the Earth Elemental that attacked her. Little sprites killed my rock! Her subsequent demise was unfortunate, after such a heroic performance. We will eat some magical jungle mushrooms to contact the spirit world and sing her praises.

As for the castle in the mountains, Mictlan advises that you abandon all lands formerly belonging to TC, since they are devoid of peasants and pretty much worthless. With your superb scales, there should be plenty of peasants for your nobles to occupy themselves with in Man's homelands. Please, take the example of Brave Sir Robin to heart, and run away. You will prevent much suffering and bloodshed by doing so.

Mictlan

More like fowl trickery. AM I RIGHT?! (I deserve to be invaded for that )

The Bandar are quite content in sitting around with their thumbs in their asses (all 4 of them) doing nothing but burning through gems on fancy summons. I will eventually have to do something I suspect.

Default The Magic of Man

Nations of Forseti, we have some sympathy for Man this month. For there was what can only be described as a cl*st*rf*ck of the most ginormous proportions outside the walls of his beloved castle in the forlorn plains of Tien Chi.

A Shadow Seer of ours was just having a wee bit of a peek around the castle walls, but was caught by patrollers. He had scripted Returning, but Man's army was fierce, and an Air Elemental whacked him before he could get his spell off. How sad for our poor mage.

But that is not the end of the story! For one of the patrollers was a Spectral Mage named RotBrother, wearing Boots of Quickness and wielding the Horror Harmonica. And man, did he play that harmonica well!

RotBrother summoned Horror after Horror after Horror, only stopping when he was free to flee the battle. Man's patrolling army must have a terrible fear of solo Shadow Seers, for they had conjured up great battle enchantments to resurrect the dead, poison the living, and inflict rigor mortis.

Our Shadow Seer lay dead on the field of battle, but now Man had to fight an army of Horrors. Zhukov the immortal false god of Man was shot by his own archers three times, and was banished to his home to recuperate from the shock. The Horrors almost carried the day, but in the end were overwhelmed by undead, as Plaguetongue the Demilich still stood to provide leadership when most of Man's army fled.

Such are the great plans of Man unwound by his dabbling in arcane magics which should be left to those with a history of dealing with the perils of blood! Man is not content to rule Nature and Air, but invests his resources in the darkest and most dangerous necromancy.

Mictlan

Default Re: The Magic of Man

A true sight!

So accurate is the situation report of the Mictlan that we have to congratulate their shadow seer for observing events to come after he's own death!

What a miraculous sight have the battle been from the perspective of the dead who rose from the stacks of men falling down to die and to come back again as the undead of men.

Many fell and never came back but now the Mictlan might be a little less eager to visit us second time! It's sad that us and horrors our nimble fingered musician summoned din't meet the Mictlan army in the field of the battle and thus we managed only to harm ourselves a bit. We wouldn't have been victorious but we would have seen the Mictlan army badly battered we hoped.

Eager to face the mictlan army in fair battle but concerned of the movements of the armies of the Agartha! Shall we face dismissal of our 3-month non-agression pact and thus face a yet another foe?

Default Man

Though I would very much like to send another round of assassins at Man's commanders who are set to cast/cause a Battle Enchantment then Retreat, can we please find out if Whollaberg can play the next turn?

It probably won't do his nation a whole lot of good to stale two turns in a row.

By the way, there were a few more artifacts liberated from the clutches of Man this month. Mictlan urges the world to check your mages to see what wondrous items you can craft this month!
