Sammy, efficient Sammy has already managed to get the gold income in the positive and even managed to recruit a nearby town. He is just the sort of general to leave in command when one decides to take an extended leave of absence with a couple of my courtesans.
However, I also hear that he has given a holiday to everyone and decided not to build anything today - something I frown upon very much!!!

I do hope that the house is prepared according to the specifications given. I am especially looking forward to spending the night in the Hall of Mirrors.

Anyway, a magic Item found, a mine is next... we are still writing daily budget with red ink.

Minstrel : You have to bring a digger from your town to free your wizard. It's the scenario:

Sammy got over-enthusiastic in the night and is now walking half-dead as punishment for that...more importantly, we had to postpone some of our expansion plans for 1 day and that hurts.

Much as I like living with my courtesans, they are women!! And with nothing to divert their attention in their free time (though I try to make it minimal every day), they start bickering at each other. Today morning, after stopping one such cat-fight, I had to pick out Teryna's fingernails entangled in Marion's hair.

*sigh* no more of those pleasurable rakes on the back!!

I'm also jalous !! How come I'm the only wizard who've got only 1 "passtime" with me... and a wierd side walking one on top of that ?!? I surely deserved to be freed ASAP !!

Ok, now, it seem's my people are determined to free me. I dont know why because I am sreaming for the opposite! Maybe after all these years in here I have forgotten the language, or maybe the language has changed over the years and I dont know what it is anymore.

Bickering...more like claws out and scratching at each other. It always amazes me when such beautiful women can turn into bundles of fury when put together. No wonder they are called feline...all the grace and beauty and savagery of the kind. In the end, my dagger accidentally split their hearts when trying to separate them from each other. Such a pity...now I am left with noone but myself...all alone!!

And Sammy, wise but cowardly Sammy sacrificed two of his axemen to get a shining artifact being hoarded by a hydra. And what does it do?...makes him even more of a wimp!!!

Bah!! Today is not worth remembering.

It irritates me to see that the other "wizards" are still in the company of their precious courtesans.
Damn them!!! If only my dagger-sheath had not had that hole in it!!

Sammy is beginning to irk me. Today another 2 soldiers were put to the blade while he again stood behind a ballista and uttered profanities at a wolf rider in an attempt to draw him away!! And he didn't even think about the artifact he had found yesterday...he was so looking forward to finding another one today. And he does get another...and becomes wimpier day by irritating day.

No maidens, pathetic general...free me, my men!!

Turn sent.

No, NO! Dont FREE me. Leave me ALONE! No, dont go this way. Turn back!

argh...

Thank God I am underground surrounded by impenetrable walls. Four pirates showed up and depleted me of still more troops.

Wonder how the rest of the wizards are faring.

Another of the land's seemingly endless surprises. A demon dog captured a windmill from us. Sammy, for once, showed some courage and asked his mole rider to accompany him in his battle against the dog.

Yikes!! It's got five of its friends nearby and they are thirsty for a fight, doing nothing but standing and guarding a catalyst thingy. Sammy, wise Sammy, decides to retreat and throws a bone to the dog and waves farewell.

Sammy dear is atlast using his wits and he is learning how to use his weaknesses effectively.

Turn sent.

My 2 heros believed they were heathy enough to capture a camp site. Well, they did succeed.. but more rest time is now required...

Alas, what am I going to do with Sandy, the knucklehead?. Yesterday, after using his artifact to great success, he went home completely drunk and forgot to recharge the damn thing!!
Now, we will have to wait another day...every day a torture on my lonely soul.

I played my turn with a Mod on (lighthawk), sorry. I replayed it the same way without using the mod in question.

Please use the second game I sent you to play your turn.

This means I will also generate a restart, again sorry.

Now I know why dear Sammy was chosen to be my general. Today he led an assault on a strong force and managed to not only not lose any unit but he also convinced one of the guards to turn against his comrades.
Now, our expansion on the surface can proceed without much difficulty.

Turn sent.

Nothing eventfull. Made contact with some wizards though...

Nothing to say but Haradar has recently improved his defence in hand to hand combat.

Sammy dear improved his stamina today and was so eager to show it off that he promptly went and got himself injured when trying to steal some gold from a couple of minotaurs.
