Sadly the cripple-fighting has been the only interesting stuff for me to watch so far. My scouts haven't managed to catch any of the other action going on.

I wish I even had some scouts. Don't start with one, can't spare a turn at the capital to recruit one, and the unfortunate thing about the early age is the scarcity of provinces where they can be recruited. Luckily, my own armies are entertaining enough to watch.

I have to say, even though it means I can get attacked from a lot of places and dominion can be tough to maintain, having so many neighbors for all of my provinces is nice at times. I can see a third of the map without spies!

   Lots of diplo this turn. I sent out some messages and it seems most that I have gotten messages from haven't done their turn yet so just to let you all know I sent my responses and some messages of my own. Hopefully it all works out as I don't particularly want to break the year one peace treaty but I will respond if need be.

The Nation of Pangaea weeps at its first loss, there smartes Pans had put there head together and came up with a battle plan - they observed how the enemy fights and tried to counter it.

I knew that he has his big hitters in the middle, archers in the back. So I simply tried to flank with my minos, top and bottom, clog up the hydras with pd & naked ladys - and as bonus, get some slingers firing at the hydras, since I for some reason thought that would help.

Here is the setup:

It starts off alright, the bottom troop of minos decided that the hydras are the rear-most unit. But some nice, satyrs leak throu and keep the archers semi busy... and look at that, the top troop is doing as it was told, ready to flank next turn! (Marked with circle)

Guess what happend?

The Archers shot them once, everyone died of poison and then they got beaten in melee by the archers.

Moral has hit a all time low for the young nation, but they shall not be violated without a price.

Wrong thread much or someone has the ultimate rush strat.

[Bluerobin]

Welp, ThtblovesDF isn't in the other games, so it has to be the right thread. Also I can vouch that Pangaea and Sauromatia are close enough that this could have happened.

   I thought Thtb was in round 10 as a replacement, actual I know it as the thread is pinned right next to this one. It looks like through that after an edit from Thtb that he lost a battle though I am still confused as the original post was apocolypticey in sound.

[Karlito]

Just for the record, I didn't start this one. Thtb sent me a pm calling for peace between us, and then ordered his troops into my territory on the same turn (and had a bunch of harpies suicide on my province defense as well).

Harpies suicide, because being a harpie can be terribly nerve-wracking sometimes  .

So is that arena helmet any good?

[Bluerobin]

It's pretty nice, yeah. The main problem (in my opinion) is that it forces the winner to fight again with each arena tournament.

[gman8181]

I guess as long as you don't put in anyone important its not a big deal.  Quickness is nice.

[Karlito]

It's definitely better than anything else that can go in the helmet slot.

[Bluerobin]

I dunno, I like Horror Helmets. Also the booster ones, but they're really mostly useful as magic boosters.

[Karlito]

He wasn't a prophet, just a regular Rakshara. Though I do agree, for a certain sort of thug a horror helmet might be better, but the 4 extra attacks shouldn't be snorted at.
