We somehow never get more then a turn or two in over the weekend anyway, might be possible.

You could also have a one-turn sub, giving him/her good instructions, if thats a thing?

Just waiting on me at the moment. Family is visiting this week and I did not manage to get enough time to do my turn.

I can't help but wonder just how much upkeep Tien Chi's army of 200 tritons + few dozen shamblers and kappas must be costing him.

I also can't help but wonder if he plans to do anything with them.

Oh, and will you stop killing my scouts? Those monkeys arn't cheap you know.

   Oh the scouts are yours. I thought the you know, monkeys, where sending the monkeys. As for my massive build up of defensive units along my coastal borders. It is entirely in response to your build up of units in that area of my empire though you have reduced the numbers there of late. Honestly if you want to talk about stacks of units the giant death stack with 110 units is making me wonder what your doing. Honestly when the description of it says its mainly stone hurlers, earth elementals and a few other assorted units you have to wonder. Yes I have some chaff in case I ever need defense against you its is in the end chaff. I mean really the only reason I am using triton things is the fact that they have a resource cost of ~1 so I could pump them out quickly.

Edit: Also I don't know who you have on scouting duty but I just went to check and I have quite a bit less the 200 tritons just sitting there. (I had to check causes they where easy to recruit but 200 just seemed high.)

Yeah, there can be quite a lot of error in scouting reports.

I'm starting to get the feeling that I'll win the next few big battles but still end up losing the war. :/

Oh yes, that army. You might have guessed that that is the army that had plowed through R'lyeh. One of my scouts had spotted that province as being defended by crystal amazons, and I just couldn't resist such an opportunity. So that army went there more or less to secure useful independent resources no one else was grabbing. The map is finally starting to run out of independent provinces it seems. 38 and 13 seem to be the last two. 13 has a ancient presence commanding ~90 manikins and mandragoras-- it is probably going to be left alone for awhile given its surroundings.

Oh, on the topic of the crystal amazons. Does anyone here have experience scripting their pegasus riders? They're sacred fliers, but they also have short bows-- so would a hold and attack rear make them jump on top of their rear targets and use their lances or would they be stupid and jump into midrange and try shooting with their bows? I honestly don't think I'll use them, but it would be nice to understand their scripting in case I ever do have a need for them. If none of you know then don't bother, I'll run tests in singleplayer at some point as I already have with so many other things. (Most recently, I can confirm that combat training at an academy of war gives +4 XP per turn to the commander AND all his troops.(On top of the +1 XP they get normally.))

Anyways yeah, I know scouting reports can be way off. This month's report says 120 in 82 and 110 in 79. But yeah, from previous reports I get the feeling you have roughly 150 or so. What I really wonder about are the reports I'm getting about Pangaea's giant hordes. (Which are indeed now to the north, south, east, and west of various bits of my land. Woo wraparound maps!)

   Meh, I wish. If I had that much I would have just rushed through your ocean provinces. I mean really you don't have that many units there. Even with just chaff having 150 of that chaff is very overwhelming to what you currently have there.

I do have some decent units sitting in the underwater fort at the bottom of that ocean. Also, some quantity of pd that you're likely unable to scout. However, my primary defense of my oceans happens to be the giant death army on your northern border.

In general I'm not a fan of the stationary garrison sort of defense. Instead I like to keep armies I can quickly mobilize for a counterattack. When R'yleh met me he quickly steamrolled 2 of my provinces because I basically had nothing to defend. And then I steamrolled those two and two more of his in response. Could have probably continued on and eliminated him, but you had just bought a first little group of shamblers and I needed some way to defend from them. Which that army is doing right now despite being nowhere near that ocean.

   Ironically my build up of shamblers was in response to you steamrolling R'yleh. You only have 2 places I want and they should be relatively easy to figure out which 2. Basicly I have my little bit of land and I am sitting there.

Oh god that one mino lord - runs up (gets shot a few times), moral fail, runs away, berserks, runs back up, eating like 8 arrows on the way, punches one unit in the face (even causing a affliction) and finally dies.


It seems that niefelheim ist crubstomping emror pretty hard, but at what cost?

I PRESENT, THE TOTALLY AND PERFECTLY ACCURATE MAP OF EVERYTHING, EVER (totally not made up for the most part)



You may pay me in nature or astral gems, for this information, yes yes...



I don't know when it turned, but it might really just have been the monster-boars, Karlito. I also learned a thing about scripting units, so we'll see... just hold still in a province or name one to fight in?
