EA Helheim seems to be intent on wiping EA Vanheim from the map, as they have sent wave after wave of Helhirdings and Mounted Hirdmen to invade our lands and pillage our maidenfolk. Yea, since first contact hath been made between the two tribes, a war has errupted seeming without end.

Wave after wave of glamourous, sacred cavalry troops has charged, and wave after wave has been beaten back in disgrace. Not once has an EA Helheim force won a victory over an EA Vanheim force except when attacking unsupported provincial defenses.

Twice, the hated invaders have succeeded in occupying Vanheim's home province. And twice they have been sent away by relieving troops combined with a sortie from the home castle. This last time, on the turn just played, the invading force of 80 Helhirdings came via sail, along with their prophet. A second cavalry force attempted to link up via land, but was repulsed by a force of Amazons assisted by eight Cave Drakes.

This left the main force with no adjacent provinces to retreat to when they were beaten by the Vanheim relievers. The result? The death of every single member of the EA Helheim main army, including their prophet.

Check the graph. EA Helheim now has the fourth smallest army in the game after losing half their total armed troops last turn. They are over-extended. And while they currently occupy more provinces than all but a handful of nations, they cannot expect to hold them with such a teeny tiny army.

Let all know that LA Midgard has taken the bloody head of LA C'Tis's false god and made a paste from it. Their main army has been completely eradicated and it only cost us 45 of our bravest warriors.

Our werewolves will feast well tonight! Midgard is willing to offer amnesty to Man if they turn their armies around and leave right now, returning all territories stolen from Midgard. Otherwise we will have to obliterate their forces as well.

Jazzepi
If danger posed by Midgard was not obvious before, it should be obvious now.

Where are the other neighbors of Midgard? Strike from the mountains! Strike from the forests! Strike from the ocean! Now is the time to rise up and defeat the werewolves before the entire eastern continent is overwhelmed.

Somehow I don't see that happening anytime soon, especially since you are 3 people waging war on him.

Marverni doesn't count, we only have one unit. And it looks like all of Midgard's Galdermen are gathering on our border to come hunt down our Menhir, so pretty soon we will have zero units.

We've been effectively out of contention since oh, about turn 8 or so. And Midgard just said he's destroyed CTis's entire army. So it appears to be Midgard against Man, and you only need to look at the army chart to make a prediction as to how that will go.

Actually, I have better magic and I think I'll win. LA Midgard is a one-trick pony, he has werewolves and nothing else.

If Midgard is so convinced of victory - he should meet me fair and square on the field of battle instead of sending little armies skulking around in the back-country.

My only concern is that EA C'tis appears intent on riding this out without getting involved.

My god deserved a picture on the web

Save this picture on your computer. It will worth a lot when Lombric will raise again to conquer all the known world.

Meanwhile, my cold-blooded strategists (slow thinkers...) are realizing that a standard ctis army cant defeat 34786 werewolves. Probably war chariot would be better, but the art of making these is forgotten since Middle Era...

EA ctis, can I burrow you some?

Default Giant Lobsters have Giant Egos

Despite being under attack from the geneticly superior and much larger nation of EA Oceania, the gaint lobster hordes of of MA Atlantis have broken their peace pact with MA Oceania and attacked a second larger nation! Are they justified in their brazen belief that they can fight one war with their left hand and another with their right, or is it merely hubris? Only time will tell, but as we join together with our traditionalist cousins we will employ the knowledge of a secret weapon learned from the landlubbers- the points of our tridents will be coated with so-called "garlic butter" which provokes terror in the tiny brains of the lobsters!

Default Quick Question



What's the method of downloading your turn, playing it offline and loading it.

I tried logging on
enter password
get turn
exit (do not select nation)

Play offline

When I check the status page it still says unplayed, but when I log back in it says 2h file already loaded?

When i'm playing offline, do i "end turn" or "save game and quit"? especially if I don't want the turn uploaded.

Thanks
