Never seen so many globals pop up so sequentially. Cool. Also undead armies and powerful liches and DEMON KNIGHTS AHOY

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.

Demon knights are good. I can say this with confidence because I have multiple hundreds of them. (They would be better if those skeletons didn't have Morale 30, so their fear was actually useful!)

Honestly, I've always wanted to experiment with Demon Knight spam, so this game is like a dream come true. A dream of endless infernal hordes clashing with the legions of the dead as mages destroy the landscape with barrages of fire and vast convulsing earthquakes under perpetually black clouds for the service of titans and sorcerers who believe themselves gods.

More like a nightmare, really. A really cool nightmare though! Demon knights!

Many hundreds? Good! The refugees I redirected your way went to good use, then. Their lives would have been very hard here in Lissasa, very hard indeed, since we have no jobs for all this unskilled labour.

Though I hate to say it, can I have another extension? 28h this time - I won't have time to deal with this new turn until late Wednesday night.

Two hours or so remaining, two players yet to send in their turn. I sent in my turn, now, but will the others be in time?

It appears they were!

I must say, my defeat at Desert Eye (again) was disappointing. It was hopefully just as awful for you as it was for me though, Delta Foxtrot! Enjoy that stolen behemoth, it's the only thing standing between that province and me.

Also oh wow Dheathig got domkilled? Ouch!

Oh. That's a lot of undead. I believe we might get to 10k if we really got together.

I am also seriously pissed off at the scripting that is ahead. It will not be enjoyable. If I make a mistake, what then? I lose! Lose!

Dheathig may have gotten domkilled in the game, but they'll never get domkilled in our hearts.

...

Okay, they'll never get domkilled in my heart. Also, once again, I'm sorry for having to abandon this game guys. It was pretty neat up until then.

At least I managed to snipe a throne on the turn I bit it. And lasted longer than I had expected to, by 20 turns or so. Avenge me! Even and especially those of you who had hands in my demise!

Oh wow. That is a lot of undead. I mean, I knew there was a horde there, but I was really figuring that scout error was accounting for at least half that. And yes, that's also a lot of mages, lijacote, and I envy you your scripting not one bit.

Given that the mage death tolls in Desert Eye were the apes' 1570g/17 labturns vs. Agor's 8640g/46 labturns, I hesitate to even go so far as to say that Agor won a Pyrrhic victory regardless of who currently holds the fort...

War in a microcosm:
Spoiler: huge (click to show/hide)

There are ~3-4 other provinces that look like this in that region. In the grim darkness of turn 85, there is only war!

You had a good go Hatman. Now you know how important dominion is in the long run.

As for lijacote's undead hordes... I've been expecting you 8)
