Silvan, Running

[JimMorrison]

Well, humbled hardly begins to describe how I feel now. Fortunately, I still have tricks up my sleeve. Oh yes, buried in there where only I know.

I sure wish Wolven Winter had gone before Murdering..... 15 killed? 15?? Out of 500. Awesome.

The only pleasure I got from that battle was watching your flaming slings (!) kill your own men by the dozens as I routed.

[AreaOfEffect]

You have to account for the fact that my dominion speards heat. Even after wolven winter that province still has heat 1. As for the timing on the spells, wolven winter triggers when random events do, which is after most other ritual spells. You did however surprise me and I am somewhat pleased to see a change in strategy. Good luck.

P.S.: You understand that Light of the Norther Star boosts all astral mages on the field, both your's and mine, right? The spell pretty much helps me just as much as its helps you.

[JimMorrison]

You know, I just triple-checked because you said that..... I was positive that it functioned differently than the Banner of the Northern Star. I guess that is an insane notion, as even though I've never used the Banner, for some reason I didn't think that it was the exact same effect.

Anyway, I have a new master plan - beyond "gotta try everything once" - oh yes, something even better than that. We'll just see if it's suicide or not. I'm still crying over the fact that Arrow Fend affects Nether Darts. 8*(

Well, it's *finally* over. Both my foes are now destroyed. (On the same turn. Very cool.) All I have to do is get rid of these newly-independent forces Vanheim left behind, and I can move on.

Wokeye, I would just like to shake your hand. I may have defeated you, but I shudder to think how it would have turned out if our nations had been anywhere in the same universe as evenly matched. (Or hell, just if Abysia had bothered to stay in the fight!) I'm not sure I can honestly claim to have 'won', considering all the damage you caused me. ; )

It's always more fun when a worthy opponent fights to the end!

I look forward to playing against you again sometime! --With somewhat mixed feelings, if you get my meaning... (Heh. ; )

(Oh! And Wokeye, you will still have to turn in this turn to the llamaserver before it will host for us. Just "End Turn" and send in this last file.)

Now! Back in character!

--IndyPendant.

[IndyPendant]

Two more false pretenders have fallen to the eternal servants of the One True God! The endless dead can be slowed, but never defeated! All shall fall beneath our unstoppable might!

--But not at this time.

My loyal minions have earned a very well-deserved respite. For now, we rest. Soon however. Soon, our Hunger will grow. The drums shall sound, and the dead shall march to battle once more.

And it shall be glorious, indeed.

--Vitae the Glorious, Lord of the Dead.

[Wokeye]

The mighty Vans have fallen to the endless undead hordes. Had our allies Abysia not suddenly taken a holiday we may have been more able to stem the tide - but that is for others now...

My early and long fight with Abysia, plus the attack by Mictlan at the same time, meant I was never really a contender. All good. GG Klagrok.

GG All, enjoyed it - although I have confirmed my preference for graphs on.

GL Indy - enjoy the beer and babes of the Vanheim capital!

[JimMorrison]

All I can say, is Reinvigorate is far too powerful.

At this rate, there won't be enough of Mictlan OR R'lyeh left to even pretend to put up a good fight against the incredible massiveness that Ermor is.

[AreaOfEffect]

Says you. His army at this point is mostly 5hp longdead horsemen. Their are ways to deal with that. It's not Ermors size I'm worried about, it's the time they now have to research and forge items for super combatants.

As for reinvigoration, I wouldn't say it's too powerful, but I would say it kicks a lot of booty. Obtaining high levels of it generally requires either nature or earth magic. In fact, I can't think of reinvigoration that doesn't come from either of those sources. This is generally good as neither of those magic skills have as much spell casting versatility and power as death and astral. With that said....

PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THE NEWLY PRONOUNCED PROPHET OF THE TRUE AND IMMORTAL GOD. I HAVE HANDPICKED HIS SOUL FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL. HE IS LOYAL, AND LIKE MYSELF HE CANNOT BE DESTROYED WITH SWORDS OR SORCERY. SOON, DEEP WITHIN THE NIGHT AS YOU SLEEP SOUNDLY, YOU WILL HERE HIS VOICE PREACH MY NAME CLOSE TO YOUR EAR. ON THAT DAY YOU WILL DIE. MWAHAHAHAHAHA.. *cough* *cough* *hack* *weeze*

Man that is rough on the vocal chords. I've got to go get some water. Later and good luck.

[JimMorrison]

Ahhh, I meant the BE - Relief. I had Grip of Winter going, AND was spamming Curse of the Desert on your guys, and most of them ended the fight with pretty much no Fatigue.

I can see it being balanced against a fatigue causing BE like Grip of Winter, but you'd think that would sort of 'balance', and they'd gain fatigue normally - and then Curse of the Desert on top of it would still ruin infantry.

As it is, Relief basically means you'll never have Fatigue problems, ever, no matter what happens..... Seems a little off.

No big deal! We have another trick, and this one you shall be powerless to resist! Heeheeeeehoohohoho-HAAAA~!

O.O

Also, aren't I alarmingly close to your capital? Or is that someone else's capital? I should have gotten a lab in that first land castle and gotten some scouts out..... I feel so naked.

[AreaOfEffect]

I don't think you take fatigue unless you're actually in melee trying to thwak someone. Also, grip of winter only hits a percentage of the field (notice the bluish plums dotting the field. I beleive that percentage goes up in colder provinces. Again, heat 2 has been your downfall. Sorry guy.

As fo the fortress, yes that is my capitol. You can tell because it's named Mictlan. That is also about as close you will ever get to it.
