You are watching: Ulm news! (Fair and Heavy)

Reports are in that the Peoples Liberation Army of Ulm has succesfully liberated the Acrosephalan capital! While the situation is still chaotic, Field Marshall Georgy Zhukov assures me that the situation will be in hand soon enough!
We now proceed to an interview:
Ulm News:"Greetings Field Marshall, what caused this spectacular victory under very acceptable losses?

Field Marshall Georgy Zhukov:"Mass heroism, superior doctrine and combined arms! Nearly All of our deaths were due to Acrosephalan Mind Burns (they do not dare to attack the well armoured bodies of our warriors), yet they found that the minds of revolutionary soldiers to be bastions of iron will indeed! It was also by superior strategic decisions that their Chariot armies were bottled down at their fort, these forces would have been much more suited to an open field battle! All they did was wait in one large mass behind their heart companions (that were holding the gate) and get shot at by our Mundane and Magic artillery, who caused large amounts of casulties. Additional hilarity ensued when some of these chariots routed.
When our Blessed Blacksteel joined the fight (after our first batch of 20 Black Knights was wittled down by mind burns), the heart companions died very quickly too.

the only thing worse than a sore loser is a sore winner.

Sore winner? In what way? I fully expect, even demand (role played) gloating when I will eventually go down, with bonus points awarded for anti communist references in the gloating.
and what would you expect of Fox, I mean Ulm news anyway?
(Hopefully) funny Commie propaganda perhaps?

The game seems to be stuck. I received an email claiming it could not find a valid .2h file. I resent mine and got a confirmation email, but that doesn't seem to have done anything.

Mightypeon · #**126** November 23rd, 2011, 06:54 PM

I hav received my turn normally, I am delaying by 24 hours in any case.

RonD · #**127** November 23rd, 2011, 08:07 PM

It did eventually host that turn. I (and everyone except C'Tis and Ulm) have submitted the current turn, but it looks like Llamaserver is suffering from an overflow of confusion - several games have all the .2h files received but are not hosting.

Mightypeon · #**128** November 24th, 2011, 01:58 PM

Autohost is on, but I will make a further delay for 24 hours just in case Ctis has issues.
In any case, the onset of war between Pythium and Mictlan has no doubt created a huge increase in diplomatic activities all over the world, so more time to conduct random deals is likely in the interest of many nations.

Ulm News! Fair and heavy!

The entire world is aghast at the speed and ferocity and Shinuyamas assault into Ctissian territory! In a single month of operations, the Bakemono have catapulted themselfs into the rank of a true world power! Although significant parts of Shinuyama are water, and thus of comparably more limited use than land provinces. However, few nations are likely to consider the task of taking on Shinuyamas Kappa legions in their own element as particularly enticing.
While the Bakemono conquered much land, in particular via the insertion of Bakemono-Sho commandos deep into Ctis itself, Royal Ctissian army is largely unscathed as it apperantly was out of position, even though they appeared to have pulled out of Tien Chi earlier. It remains to be seen what will happen in this war.

Dear propagandists,

Your news story has a mistake that requires a retraction. The C'Tissian Royal Army should be referred to as the other CRA or the second CRA. The first army sent against T'ien Ch'i was sent on into the afterlife.

Thank you for your continued reporting. We always enjoy your view of events.
