Who's capital do you think you're going to be taking?

[ThtblovesDF]

Someone my own : I

~stares at fishy armys~


***btw, I sure hope the rest of you enjoy there unblocked, endless expansion vs worthless indys.

They've been taking too long at it to be honest. I seriously am thinking about having an army or two of mine break off from my current war to snatch up a few of the dozen or so indie provinces I am still seeing unclaimed.

But anyways, there are good things about fighting non-indies. Namely the part where occasionally get an entire fortress for free!

[Bluerobin]

I'm so confused right now. Hopefully I'll get a chance to look at the game soon, my weekend sucked for computer access.

[ThtblovesDF]

Or that new fancy actually well used/trained/blessed/ordered Army will roll over and take it ;I

I mean lets not kid ourselfs Karlito, you know your shit, maybe your nation even has a advantage against pangaea, either way I'm going down sooner or later. I'm playing for "later and with a fight".
(Btw, who wants to bet my new prophet will die the turn after he was made?)
Then someone not locked down in a war comes over and eats us both, on that subject, how is T'ien Ch'i, Lanka and Agartha doing?

I'm sharing what i know, since I like talking and seeing the [NEW] next to this topic - and to update anyone not in the loop;

Akhier the Dragon hearted - T'ien Ch'i          - Expanding like a boss?
ThtbLovesDF - Pangaea                            - Fighting with unarmored troops vs poison archers
Kebooo - Niefelheim                                  - Beating up Emror, vets beating on new guys, a common theme.
Bluerobin - R'lyeh                                      - Snuggling up on my Capital, Fighting Argartha?
Waterplouf - Ermor                                    - Trying to hold back some of the strongest single recuitable units with the cheapest, undead? Maybe?
gman8181 - Lanka                                     -  A Mystery
Karlito - Sauromatia                                   - Fighting Endless Summon Animal Spam with actual troops
Endymion - Agartha                                   - Fighting the Squids under water, no idea who is winning.


I would still bet on Ry'leh in a Ry'eh vs Argartha showdown, at least midgame...

[Karlito]

R'lyeh is all up in your business too then? That's a relief, I thought you were working together against me. I guess the all surface dwellers look the same to our fishy friends.

[gman8181]

Heh.  To be honest my soldiers are quite powerful but a pain in the butt to mass recruit due to high resources and high gold (along with my subpar starting location may I add).  This has left me with a bit of a troop shortage for taking many of the provinces I would like.  That said, almost all of my provinces are defended with actual commanders and troops not just province defense and the few mobile armies that I do have stomping around take very few if any losses.

[ThtblovesDF]

We are to deep into this to bail out, or Karlito?

And isn't that a massive waste of upkeep/units, gman? Your PD isn't bad, if i recall...

Om nom landwalkers.

[gman8181]

I absolutely despite Lanka's province defense, and most of the units I have on guard duty are upkeep free undead backed by a small number of elite sacreds.

I'm trying to teach him that the pale ones arn't as tasty. Or at least that giant rocks are problematic.

Thus far of the 8 Earth elementals(Size 5-- a nice national summon Agartha gets at Conj3) I've brought to the war he has killed 1, knocked one down to size 4 and diseased it(How do you disease a rock?), and blinded another one(which has no effect anyways).

Oh, and gman-- I think the real question is why do you need to have your provinces defended at all? A couple of points of pd take care of annoying scouts trying to backstab you and any real army showing up will give you a turn notice when they reach your borders... so as long as you have a defense force capable of getting there in one turn you have defense. Not to mention the implied defense of 'if you attack me I'll rally together and counter-attack'.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

Maybe your earth elemental had a lot of iron in it and its rusting?

[gman8181]

The main reason is that I'm a blood nation and that I almost always have bad luck with independents attacking my provinces, killing my slaves and sometimes even getting my mages.  I just don't feel like having to deal with that, so I usually have province defense so that independent attacks don't matter.  I don't like my pd though, so instead I've opted to build up armies of undead backed by a couple sacreds in each of my provinces.

Honestly the Water Races always looked so amazing to me, and the vast majority of their troops tend to be both water and land, that I wonder if it is even possible to reasonably fight them until the mid-late game.

[ThtblovesDF]

Trapped as they are, the wild things of Pangaea continue there fight - and the invading forces shall find nothing but burned and pillaged villages!
