What luck! I manage to cast Wrathful Skies, and on the second round of it a lightning bolt happens to smite the guy who cast it. It did a little damage, at least.
Hey, it killed one of my Rishis. Out of a gazillion other commanders to hit.
Good thinking with the scripting there, by the way. I'm not sure why you did not script or forge some shock resistance for #hashtag. He could've carried the battle.

I'm beginning to feel like that Phyrrus guy. All battles victorious, every one of them feels like a trudgery and a step closer to losing the war.

Also, seeing my thaumaturg cast poorly-aimed banishments instead of summoning more skeletons during the assassination was cringe-inducing.

Finally, a foothold v. Abysia.  You can't patrol all of your provinces at once!  and this one has a LAB

Might gonna need a 12h extension. I'll try my best to get the turn in, but might just miss the deadline.

No worries; I'm in a similar boat. Extension is up.

As if it wasn't bad enough that the squids swim, they now can also fly.

My communion masters did not cast what I wanted them to cast at all. Yet, my strategy of letting your mages kill themselves appears to have worked swimmingly! Thank you for casting Growing Fury, you did more than I ever could! :D

I need to ask for an additional 24 hours.  I need to go on an overnight trip for a series of meetings in central VA, and I don't know if I'm going to have time to do anything at all besides additional prep work.

Sorry.  This is a very busy time for me.

I know, right? 20 yogis on a suicide run. At least some of them reincarnated.
And I think your communion failed because my kinnara went berserk and killed one/some of the communion in the rear.

Do you still need the extension, sum1won? You've got your turns in for both games...

yeah, I realized that I had actually completed the turns in both, so I sent them in before leaving.  I might still need it for 401, but I'll leave that for later.

I'll throw down a 24h extension, then. Better safe than sorry, especially since you're currently the 500kg squid in the room.

I've pushed the deadline and held off submitting myself to make sure you were good, sum1won. Are you good?

Also, Vortex, *cough*.

I don't understand. He submitted the turn a good while ago. Why do you think he still needs an extension for this turn?

But yeah, what's up with Abysia?

Odd turn of phrase on his part, but yeah, I see your point. Makes more sense than my, um, interesting interpretation. But since Abysia was still outstanding anyway...

If there's one ounce of cephalopod decency within you, you'll build a monument memorializing that damned imp. The filthy thing snatched victory from the jaws of defeat for you. Though "snatched" probably isn't the right word since its heroic feat consisted of standing in place and somehow not dying for the first 16 rounds that it enjoyed Ninmah's undivided attention.
