Kickabout - Game Started.

This game is going more and more to Sauromatias favor... Has anyone seen tartarians yet?

Thanks to the heartless deans of my university, I'm gonna have 7 finals in 8 days, so I'm retiring from all my games, setting myself to AI. I'm really sorry people

Wow, Maverni, I must tip my hat to you for bringing what you did to the table at that epic battle. I know I'm a noob, but I have yet to see such a large battle involving so many conventional units in a game of DOM3. I think it wasn't your tactics that let you down...just your choice of enemy

[RadioGibbon]

Thanks Deadnature, it's been a positive pleasure to be burnt to the ground by you, but I think you being overly polite about my tactics.

In hindsight I'd divide them into 3 phases:

My Invasion: Completly Retarded - My druids were lavishly kitted out to be invulnerable to missile fire whilst my army had no protection against fire. Against Abysia, who has no archers and a lot of fire.

The Suicide Earthquakes: Retarded but necessary - An attempt to
wipe out your mages at the cost of all of mine, I think I got about half of them? Whilst your army did stop for the time it took me to build that enormous horde you just wiped out I dont know if this was to bring up fresh mages or just general consolidation.

Last Stand: Fine in Conception, Retarded in execution - The absolute key to this fight was slapping a soul matrix(?) on the Thunderbird so he could join the communion and cast Warriors of Musphelheim in the second turn. I thought the communion was large enough to make this possible but considering the damn pretentious Heron cast Fire Fend instead I guess its back to the Communions guide. My friend Hindsight watched the battle and was like,

"Why not just have all those Druids off teleport raiding here, have a massive communion because you knew it was dodgy, and once the Communion has started have a garanteed Warriors of Musphelheim before laying down an absolutely massive Gifts of Heaven barrage? You could have had a dozen druids spamming that stuff?" Needless to say I slapped him and booted him out the door.

As for your Abysians, who I'm informed played a small part in my downfall, the amount of firepower (pun intended) you brought to bear was pretty amazing, and would have been great fun to watch if it hadn't been aimed at me. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go barricade some doors.

tl : dr version - Waahhhh! Waahhhh! I lost and its not fair!

Attention readers: I've got 2 or 3 turns left maximum, obviously I'll admin as long as it's needed, even after I've been wiped out, but if anyone wants to volunteer to take over it would be appreciated.

Volunteer in this thread or PM me and I'll send you the pass word.

I can´t play more,my father is hospital.Put me in AI please

[RadioGibbon]

Sorry to here about your father Majuva. I'll set you to AI.

All the best.

[RadioGibbon]

Tempting as it was to continue with my single watery province and enact a B movie style 'Revenge of the Fishmen' I decided to switch to AI.

Good game everyone, and all the best in your future efforts to burn things down Deadnature (They've certainly been vey effective so far!).

I'll keep checking this thread until the game gets a new admin (Hint Hint).

[Deadnature]

great game, RB...to be honest, I've played a couple of games as EA Abysia and this was my most successful conflagration to date.

What sort of Christmas Break do you guys want?
