What a sorry state I'm in. My once so proud kingdom is seperated thanks to that irritating Nomad Ke-Nan VIII. Since he died we have to put up with his son, Ke-Nan IX (what a surprise). I think we'll let him die young though... muhahahaha!

Our assasination tour has just started.

Enough is enough. I have a plan to win this war and exterminate the dark elves,... well the ones we don't make into our slaves and concubines.

I will build a great army and they will have bright colored uniforms with shiny swords and shields and silver buttons on their tunics. Thay will march in pretty formations and virgins will throw flowers in their path and swoon. I will call them my 'invincibles' and they shall trample all that dare cross their path.

What terrible luck as one of my priests and one of my bladedancers dies. We sure hope tomorrow will be better.

In todays fighting many of the shiny tunics and brass buttons were torn, bloodied and tarnished. Thankfully Camerlan survived, though none of his followers did.

Things are slowly getting better as we slaughter some Goblin's. Pondering what my next target should be though.

My disparate survivors of yesterdays fighting head toward a new target.

From bad to worse...

Just barely averted a disaster today.

Last night a horse archer scout was killed by 4 tigran raiders. Camerlan, myself and a Djinn, all very woounded, plus a new spearman, counterattacked. The 4 Tigrans were joined by the 3 goldmine guarding Tigrans to their rear and it was a real nailbiter. Spearman dead and myself and others even more wounded.

Great, some reinforcements arrived today. Not that much but still something we could use badly right now. Plans for an invasion should become reality tomorrow.

I was just thinking about how some reinforcements would sure come in handy right now, but alas I hear that Arachna VI has recieved them instead.

A day to regroup, but it may take closer to a week.

Well, the conquering of a town took place, but on the other hand things aren't going so great. We have to make some decisions and we better do it soon.

Recuperating, but a hero did offer to join.

Aha, a wise hero joins my ranks! With Lavanda earning levels we're in much better shape now. We could use some more minions though.

ts

Two stupid priests are frustrating me!

Finally we get some work done.

A village is captured but it is woefully unprepared for war.

A single barbarian reinforcement joins my ranks. Yea!

Attemt to assasinate Arachna's wounded hero with one spearman unfortuanately failed.

My ranks are slowly growing but still it's a long way from getting anywhere near where I want to be. I cannot be in all those places where I'm needed.

Some indies killed my z-bird.

Sabotage works well against siege engines. Both hero's will level next day.

The Commitee of Dark Elven Extermination (CoDEE) is created and a new war startegy is planned with new bright shiny uniforms and even shinier brass buttons for the newest recruits.

A fine day but nothing to write home about. We've set our eyes on a new target though...

My two heros scour the lands and pillage while I gear up.

Two heros... phah!

Plans for my heros change like the wind on the desert. They are directed to a diferent mission.

Back at the palace I am sick of the yes men and sycophants on the CoDEE. I hop on a spirited Arabian and gallop to join the nearby explorers in the raid on some dwarves.

My hero's seem to be suffering from the same disease. They are rerouted immediately for a new mission.

Stymied again. Hero's retreat with camel tails between legs.

Final preparations for a tricky raid are made.

I make a small gain with capture of an outpost and a fire node.

A small gain at the cost of Ke-Nan and the spirit of war even rewarded us for that with some nice equipment too!

In my anger at the loss of the orc outpost I forget to order any new construction. Erg,..

Oh, believe me Ke-Nan. Your anger will be a lot worse after you're messengers bring you the news of the loss of your pitiful hero.

Ok, now I'm ready to explode. My ancestors are quivering in their tombs. The sea of sand begins to blow. May a million fleas from a w#ores camel blanket infest your fat poisonous arachnoid body.

Ah poor old Ke-Nan. Does your family ever learn that you don't win wars by calling others names?

I curse you with bloodless flies in your web so that your throat will be as dry as the sands of the desert in a thousand year drought.

I must say that your swearing is far more original than your father's, you stupid spiderwoman! In the meantime another hero is wise enough to see there shall be only one winner here! Arachna VI will reign soon!

Those dark elves know what's good for them. They run off to the east rather than face of my Invincibles.

You'll meet my troops again soon Ke-Nan the foolish!

Hmmmm, what to do next. So many options, so little time!

Another purple spearman killed. It doesn't make-up for my lost hero, yet.

A hard battle without losses. My main pounding force is getting stronger and stronger. Time to show my strength to Ke-Nan soon.

An interesting sword was discovered. It gives bonuses to attack and damage as well as block and it goes in the shield slot. Hmmm...
