Oh my. So I'm assuming Agor's walls cracked immediately; does this mean we're gonna see if there are enough units in that province to bring Llamaserver to its knees next turn?

It's cracked, yes. I think Agor might have a bit more undead in his castle than I have outside of it. Eight thousand, ten thousand? The battle wouldn't reach twenty thousand, I think.

I'm also amused by the similarity between this situation and the one I have going on in Empires in Arms. Our Napoleon is very adamant that he has every tactic and strategy thought out for all of us of his enemies in the coalition, but I'm doubtful. I think we'll be on Paris soon enough.

And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

Need extension possibly, 12h?

I hate to do this, but I think this turn is going to take a little longer than I have time for. Can I have a 12h extension on top of lijacote's?

I do hope Stillness has learned to pick on people his own size.

(To clarify, I'm pretty sure all parties involved were unhappily surprised by the turn of events in Painter Lair. Well, except the ghouls, who I'm sure were thrilled to unexpectedly continue their undeath...)

Great minds think alike, Albright! I believe we just declared war simultaneously.

e: I do feel sorry for you, having an opponent who is going to be casting turn 1 Fire Fend in every even remotely important battle for the rest of the game.

Or if you're watching the replay, Time stops.

In case the monkeys missed it, and/or for the amusement of the peanut gallery, two depictions of the Battle of Agor:

It's 75+ turns of pure tedium, and I suspect the replay bug was in effect, because Lissasa holds the province but when I watched it to the gruesome end it looked like Agor just barely won with its last lich not quite having time to rout all the way off the field (everything else had melted or routed except maybe 3-4 stray Agorian longdead)...

There's absolutely no reasonable way to show a battle like that, but here's the front 1/3 or so of each army's length and maybe 3/4s of their width on turn 5-ish:

How the hell did you guys get so many longdead with nationgen nations?
