The Council of Wyrms - Page 32

Heh. I noticed that. With the research setting we have, I might have waited a turn to pick a better target, especially with indies 8 and no one else likely to have research for expansion for at least another 2 or 3 turns.

Alas, poor wyrm - he ate something that disagreed with him.

I thought quantum was playing Ermor...

Going in on turn 0 was not that huge of a risk, worked in 9/10 test games. Scouting around would not have saved him, actually, he just had the extreme misfortune of getting a chest wound right out of the gate.

EDIT: And an unrest event to boot.

What'd he go up against though? Xbows, heavy cav/knights, or barbs? Had to get hit pretty hard to take a wound, I would think.

Yeah, it was a lance.

My people are experimenting with a new educational program; we call it "No Tuatha Left Behind".
Results are expected by year 75.

The Harab Host, having driven out the despicable Arch-Seraphs, are now engaged in a peaceable program of research and development and giving orders to our troops in a timely manner.

Have a nice day!

Something must be done about this... an outrage!

I think we should make little rubber bracelets and sell em to raise funds and increase public awareness for the plight of the poor, godless souls of Ermor.

I noticed Ermor got the mercs that month. if my SCs weren't so exxpensive I would have bid on them myself.

in all my trial runs with the settings, I found waiting a turn to scout was more effective than rushing in blindly. at least with inde strength set to 8.
