Felix - Days 1 and 2

Secured some gold-producing structures and just consigned two injured swordsmen to their death - unless they prove to be very battle-worthy.

Two important objectives are in striking distance. Tomorrow the first will be taken...and depending on the outcome, the second will be soon.

Turn sent.

Evil Roc, thanks again for the effort you are putting in.

We have struck at an conquered our first settlement. Explorations are slow, however. We hope to rectify that soon.

We too have captured our first settlement but things are not looking good. We have sighted two reasonably strong patrols - one headed for my wizard tower...and the other within striking distance of my injured army, including my wizard.

If both strike, this game may well be over.

We have finally cleared the area of the two patrol groups and am in possession of my wizard tower once again.
Now, we proceed towards our second objective.

We decide to wait for another day to take on the second objective as one of our scouts was killed by some nomads. A mourning day without fight!!

Our cause has now been bolstered by both orcs and goblins. We will gladly sign any creature than can weild blade or teeth against our enemies.

Cursed luck on the first round in the battle. Two human crossbowmen withstood 2 shooting stars, 4 hits from my units and managed to severely wound my soldiers.

On top of that bloody battle, another patrol, led by a vampire is making its way towards my capital. *sigh*

Mynar joined us today. His leadershipII will be very useful.
Today was a very useful day for research as we captured two nodes and an undead city.

The last few days have been eventful. Concealed gladerunner patrols stole two of my towns and a mine and it was a hectic job to find and kill them.
On top of that, I had some severe morale problems due to Archon and Undead towns and summons...man, I will lose this game myself, I figure.

Our scouts continue to harass Felix's lands. We have spotted a number of new targets of opportunity.

On the down side, I lost two very useful units in an attack they should have easily won.

A fairy was slain today...but she managed to kill a Centaur before dying.

Unfortunately, we are losing units due to change in alignment every day...and we are struggling with maintaining the realms stable.

We almost defeated the army...however my full-health wizard chose to flee from a badly injured duo of hero and penguin. What a coward!!

Looks like I will be losing my first game on an ER map after 4 consecutive wins.

We took heavy losses and have retreated to lick our wounds. However, our second army is about to enter the fray, and they are fresh and well-rested.

Our army did not fight that well, and they were eliminated. Still, our western army is moving into the heart of Felix's territory with no resistance.

Well, if two knights, a hero, a herbalist and my wizard can't kill a hero, penguin and a pitguard, I guess its time to lose.

I don't even feel like I offered you a challenge. So, lets play another!!!

I'd be happy to. We could do a random one if you like.

Sure...random will do. By random, I assume you mean one set up by Evil Roc...or is it like random random?

If it is the former, we can make it WL...latter, we will keep it for fun, since the RMG can be too unbalancing sometimes. Let me know what you'd like...and any preferences.

Well, I'd prefer a wizard's ladder one, actually.

Preferences...how about a race I've never played before: Shadow Demons, with 4 death, 2 air, and merchant.

I'll try Tigrans with Explorer, 4 fire, 2 life.

If you agree to the preferences, I will post in ER's thread for a new map.
