Note to self: Double check to make sure squads that are supposed to be set to 'hold and attack' are in fact set to that and not on default 'no orders' behavior.

EDIT: Mind granting me a little extension? I'm kind of worrying about more fronts than most people here and I don't think I have enough time tonight to finish up my turn.

Edits don't bump the thread so I almost missed this. Almost. 12h has been granted.

Good luck with the war.

They put the "new" icon at the right of the title ;)

That's how I noticed. But I usually just check the topmost threads in PWYB. I guess I should use the 'mark all as read' feature to spot these better. Unless someone actually posts here it doesn't bump up to the top of the page.

Yeah, edits won't get my attention either since I get most of my thread updates through notification emails. That extension saved me from staling, so sincere thanks!

In other news, my völva have been less useful, failing to predict terrible misfortune and even becoming cursed! Poor Mayonnaise. Or Yogurt. Or... hmm what was her name?

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Little question to those who had a scout at my capital : did you see the battle before they died ?

*sigh*

I don't even know what my mages were trying to do there. Oh well.

Uh... Yeah, what were your mages trying to do there?

All of their spells only seemed to highlight how bad ass Rumia is. There's probably a Rumia Fanclub Society running rampant in Midgård. Purges are recommended.

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

Apparently kill a nigh immortal pretender with spells she has a lot of resistances to while watching all of their accompanying soldiers die a horrible, horrible death. Y'know, the usual.

Ah, Dominions! Seriously though, I'm not entirely sure how you could've stopped said pretender, given her shock resistance.

It was pretty hilarious.

Maybe you had range issues? I believe mages go offscript if they can't cast their scripted spells. I can't really tell what spell carries how far in the battlefield but that could be it.

It was bad/rushed orders throwing my entire army at her without having the right spell setup. Range issues caused them to spam summoning spells, which gave her a nice safe shell of air elementals and imps. Yay.

Huh, my gem income graph ticked down this turn, but I didn't lose any provinces.

Whatever, Cherry Coke doesn't care much for these piles of shiny rocks anyway.
