Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on! - Page 13

Recently the false god worshippers, big giants from the desert west from Forges of Ulm, the Ashdod, decided that attacking Ulm was a a good idea. Lately though, having beat the weird horned giants back with very minimal losses, and having started to siege the first castle of the few desert cities that the nation of Ashdod posesses, the priest smiths of Ulm can not but wonder;

"Why did they attack us? What did we do to them? Taking our provinces with force brings them nothing but harm. But they must be repelled, and punished for their insolence and arrogance. There can be no Ashdod in the struggle for godhood."

Cladding their forces in mighty black steel, arming their troops with great black halberds, battleaxes and flails, the forces of Ulm, the worshippers of the True God march forward, towards the desert cities of Ashdod. The false god must be beheaded, his disfigured and flayed head displayed over the prime gate of Capitol of Ashdod. Mark our words, their god shall fall. Storm of iron will wash upon their land, leaving it purged of this false faith once, and for all time to come.

the reason why the nation of Ashod decided that it was time to go to war is because of one simple reason, with no access to any other route of expansion, and seeing what had happened to the nations around you, the council came to a very simple conclusion, either we launch a war now and hope for the best, or die slowly as we watch the game go by while we sit on the sidelines. So we launched our armies, and prepared for what was to come. Though it was a failed attempt, it is better to die fighting, then to die in bed.

Quite true Hunt11....

As one who is running around with 1 pitiful army behind the Nation of Atlantis lines, with the only fate left to us is to be a big Pain in the backside to Atlantis.

Tying up a Couple of small armies chasing me and playing a game of Chess for the last 8 or 9 turns, Taking a Province..setting the taxes to 200 and moving on.

But the Sands of Time are running out as I slowly run out of options. More armies show on the horizan and our backs our agianst Mountians.

I think of a Spartan Mother talking to her son leaving on his first expedition. "Come back VICTORIOUS....or come back on your Shield"

As you fight on Hunt11 I will be brought back on my shield...but we will see each other agian...in the halls of Valhalla where only those that die with a sword in thier hand may enter!!

Either your army is so insignificant that I didn't notice (and Vans can swim)

or you're confusing us with someone else. Either way your post has caused a lot of confusion among us fish people. We aren't well known for our intelligence, as a few of the battles with Mictlan exposed

DUH...it was the OTHER blue Flag, ULM!!

No worries tho after a long run we got tired and went ahead and attacked a Fort and lost.

Only an army, No leader so I went AI this turn as he will kill the army at his leisure.

I accomplished what I wanted...Thanks to all for the game, see you ion the next one

It's been fun GrudgeBringer, and by the looks of it, i will soon be joining you

Joten, You have angered the Nation of Rylah! It is turn 45 and I announce that our nap is canceled. That global is just too much to endure...

Turn 48 hostilities will commence.

Jotunheim, with those globals you have declared war on the world. We renounce our NAP with you and will consider ourselves at war on turn 48. Atlantis calls on every nation to forget your petty differences and confront this menace before its too late.

Oh and GB, no worries about the confusion. Good to hear you had fun. See you around!
