Looks like I'll break 1k research per turn next turn.

[ThtblovesDF]

I'm actually pretty far behind in research as I had to move all my researchers out and into the battlefield fairly early on and most of them never came back.

Site Searching is pretty fun with big mages thou, you tend to always hit at least one site every 2 provinces for sure.

[etgfrog]

Most of my research is from spectral philosopher with owl quills and lightless laterns. On another note, amulet of the dead does work on the ephor.

Atlantis loses battle because of scary rock. However, I think it is fair to say at this point, Vanheim will join the defeated nations pool.

From what I can tell, they were just a victim of overextending against a stronger power. But at least they took most of the non-mages of that army out.

[etgfrog]

To be fair, vanhiem had this very long, narrow set of territories that looked easy to take if you knew all the glamor units were tied up elsewhere. Then again I noticed you(yomi) growing to be on par with me and ulm in terms of territory.

[ThtblovesDF]

Well, if there is a lesson in this - don't start a half-assed invasions, then reject the peace offer.
Also, always plug the gate during a siege.


The battle was interesting, as I won it with pure luck - that little troll, just standing there and refusing to move was a game winner. So Combatspeed below 5 = never moves? This seems exploitable to a small degree.

In other news, my main commander retreated into enemy territory with the lion share of troops, so... don't put all your chickens into one 300 leadership basket.

Maverni can count itself avenged.

Edit: So I can upgrade the Fort in Caelum, that feels so insulting. "We took your place and now we are making it better"

New Turn, Bogarus is a dick.

[MCreeper]

But there are no Bogarus.

On another note, amulet of the dead does work on the ephor.

...are you 100% sure on this point? I tested it when randomly screwing around with summoning Therodian Keres, and I saw the same 1 spectre per holy level with and without the Amulet...

[etgfrog]

Right...keres got added in recently...they look nasty and potentially useful...but do I really need more shock troops? I guess with their high morale they could pose a threat those enemy necromancers I'm having problems with.

How odd, the first turn I used it with my prophet ephor, I saw 2 extra spectres, forged more and equipped them, I saw extra spectres start to pop up in other territories too after that.

[MCreeper]

   Hinnom, why? What was that? Did you just gived rights to murder me to Ur?
   I expected you to cast earthquake one or two times (why else you will wear earth boots on E4 pretender and give her ton of gems?), then go on trample rampage, aiming for rear or large monsters (you also didn't given your pretender any armor, although you surely was able to craft black plate, and there was A LOT of time to do so. Why?), to kill my pretender who will not be able to do ANYTHING to yours in hand to hand combat, despite full set of equipment (unless you are horribly unlucky, and get stunned by 5A astral shield against 17 MR few times in a row). You also bringed crusher, supposedly knowing that i can craft black bows and will aim at large monsters (so i did).
   I expected to get murdered by you. And then your pretender just sits there and spams earth elementals? And your nature mages don't cast anything useful  (like, say, vine arrow) AGAIN, preferring to spam enlarge (PLEASE, TELL ME, WHY? IT'S POINTLESS) and panic. I also seen some S2 mages, and you didn't even tried to magic duel my prophet with them. Seriously? You sit in your capital with all that horde of mages all the time, and your research seems to be worse then mine, after all that walking around and constant mageslaughter.

This battle was great (funnier for me  ), though.

Anyways, now Ur goes after me and i will really most likely lose. Hinnom's capital is free for taking, though everyone close to them probably know that already.

Also, from where my sacreds got 20 morale? 15 base + 1 from bless + 1 from dominion + 2 from commander = 19. Do i miss something?

How odd, the first turn I used it with my prophet ephor, I saw 2 extra spectres, forged more and equipped them, I saw extra spectres start to pop up in other territories too after that.

It's possible it got changed with the patch, but I'd be surprised if it was happening in the first place. Spectral undead usually aren't affected by it, not since the supaya fiasco when Nazca was introduced.

Assign a spectre or something comparable to the ephor; that way all the new ones will show up in that squad instead of in garrison. It's the easiest way to count freespawn.

Also, from where my sacreds got 20 morale? 15 base + 1 from bless + 1 from dominion + 2 from commander = 19. Do i miss something?

Home province? That's +1 as well.

[Bluerobin]

Haha I'm sort of confused why I'm thrown in the middle of that diatribe there MCreeper, but it was a funny battle to watch, from both sides. Were you trying to suicide your army into the Hinnom army besieging your capital and you're frustrated you won? Because you were the one that attacked there.

Also, what battle is that picture from? The one that happened in your capital had a poor gelatinous cube that got stuck behind your army. It's so hungry, why won't you let it eat some people?

[MCreeper]

I tried to just win\lose already, because it would take him 6 or so turns to break the gates. Picture is from previous last stand at the capital, which atually dealt some damage to me.

Also, from where my sacreds got 20 morale? 15 base + 1 from bless + 1 from dominion + 2 from commander = 19. Do i miss something?

Home province? That's +1 as well.

That's it, thanks.

[ThtblovesDF]

Nice timing on the Global there etgfrog.

Also dear god that spell that cripples legs is just deadly in the long term, 75% of that army will perish just walking around, but because of upkeep and stuff, just standing around is no choice either.

[MCreeper]

Barekan is an uncommunicative jerk. Barekan can't be bothered to answer few simple questions. Barekan shouldn't be allowed to play disciple games. 
Bluerobin is also a jerk, because he a bit rudely (probably no) gloated about killing me with ease (he didn't) before actually doing it (he didn't). I don't sure about state of his capital, but he sure enough just wasted most of his 100+ sacreds doomstack. Also 3 commanders leading this doomstack didn't died only because of RNG's mercy.
