Silent Seas AAR

Congratulations on the new fort, good luck (As if you need it) in your future conquests.

[Nerfix]

*gasp*

That fort looks so nice!

Good progress so far. Any idea when we'll see Devata?

[Fate]

That is a gorgeous fort (great AAR, btw).

Can the units go up to that tower, or is it just scenary?

[BigJMoney]

I was wondering that too, but I had to ask myself, "when in Dominions have I ever seen units fighting each other on a north/south plane?" Of course, the answer is "never", so I have to doubt that you can defend or attack that cool looking tower. Maybe we can request that for Dom 4, though! Some castles with multiple sections and specialized defenses you have to conquer. Man, that would make sieges interesting, now wouldn't it?

Turn 54
My researchers have discovered the means to summon a powerful hero from the celestial sphere: a Devata. Devasura was a Devata before he fell; now I have discovered the means to summon unfallen Devatas. Unfortunately the cost in magical resources is high: 45 astral pearls. This is in fact higher than I can afford right now. I will have to wait before enacting this ritual.

One of my Yakshas was casting a routine spell attempting to find sites of magical power, and found a fortification: The Jervellan Wall. This is all to the better since the province in which it is located is a province I recently took from T'ien Ch'i, so it is on the new frontier. Having said this, it is not a particularly good fortification, but better than nothing.



Devasura, having secured T'ien Ch'i's Swamp Fort, are moving on to attack some Forest Ramparts held by T'ien Ch'i but besieged by Vanheim.

Bishen and the army he is leading are continuing to move south into T'ien Ch'i's territory. If I can hold the pass over the mountains to the west I can move south down a fairly narrow path. I need one more commander who can bless all my troops. Either I recall Dhritiman from site searching, which is tough because I need a greater income in gems, or I wait until I can recruit a Devata, which will probably be a couple more turns. I think I will probably do the latter.

Well, at least your troops won't be starving near the Jervellan Wall.

Can we perhaps get a shot of your conquests?

Supply storage is only in sieges. Supply distribution is admin dependent IIRC

Oh. I see.

[BigJMoney]

That's still not bad. If the euqations I've seen on these forums are correct, you could have:

1000 supply turn 1
500 supply turn 2
333 supply turn 3
250 supply turn 4
200 supply turn 5
166 supply turn 6...

1000 castle supply really is useful. Question about that...when you're seiging, is there any way at all to see what the supply factor for the troops on the inside is?

The Jervellan Wall has great siege supply, but not much defence, so unless you have a very tough army inside the walls will fall rather quickly. The idea (I'm guessing) is that it takes a lot of manpower to hold, and therefore has a correspondingly high siege supply.
