Anon day 1

The Archons head out in several directions... we see many targets to take on... wish the nearby nodes were better but we'll still capture the death node anyway.

Anon day 2

We clear a campsite and pick up a nice shield. Our surrounding areas looks like it will be fun to explore. The small number of our troops will have much to do. We have also spotted our first city nearby... soon it will be ours.

New Game...

Day 1,

A good first day. We have already started adding new troops to our small army.

Artica day 1

We embark on bold adventures and our battles go well for us.

Less good today. Lost too many units in a battle with an ent.

Artica day 2

No battles today... just healing and troop movement. Tomorrow there will be great and terrible battles.... hope they go our way!

Hmm, I seem to need a resend.

Our armies are slowly being whittled down. Luckily, we are discovering magic items of great power for our champion.

Artica day 3

We do well in our battle against 2 nordic glows, we needed the magic research. Tomorrow we plan to take on 3 hell hound guarding a magic catalyst.... not sure we like having fire weakness....

A little gold has provided us with some allies who were able to add a furnace to our empire.

Artica

patrolling armies attacked our advance scout, most unfortunate loss as it was nice to see what was out there.

The battle went well against the hell hounds... too bad our battle weary troops stopped within distance of another patrolling band out there... hope the battle goes well in the night

We had to retreat from some tower defenders. Our scouts saw little of interest today.

Artica

Arghhhh... darn wandering patrols out there wiped out another scout and most unfortunately... my mighty mammoth We'll just have to regroup for awhile as our forces have been decimated lately. Fortunately, income is getting better and we have spotted a few new objectives.

We can see more and more, but little of interest.

We have sent out an offer of peace, but prepare for war.

Artica

Most unfortunate to have soooo many patrols out there. 3 are approaching... one was dealt with, hopefully the other two won't both attack... it could get ugly

Our offer of peace was turned down, so our scouts began claiming the human resources. We need them, because we've found little else to do.

Artica day 8

We slay the saint and his guards, coulpe archers are wandering nearby and then there are also another halfing pony and troops. Soon we'll catch all of them but it still rough going... wish we had a healer.

Fought off some independents and found some gold.

Artica day 9

The last group of invaders was defeated (well, the pony rider is long gone so we'll worry about him later). Now we need to heal up and venture forth once again.

Good thing our first healer will be ready tomorrow, maybe we'll build another one quickly. Then our first offensive spell should be ready. What a rough start

We managed to capture some useful resources today, and have finally spotted some settlements that might make good conquests.

Artica

Our healer is ready to heal... we'll keep that priest busy for the next 4 days... then we think our troops will be ready to fight again

Artica days 10-12

We are pushing forward once again now that we healed up. We have met a few of our nieghbors... included Ke-nan and his zephyr bird.. Could get interesting...

Things are going much better. We have taken several targets and are discovering more.

ts

Artica

We bother our enemy a bit today... but fear he will bother us a bit too. Things are going just fine elsewhere... especially now that we have rid ourselves of a pesky invader.

We have quickly taken back our village and established a garrison there. Elsewhere, a rare and highly useful find has been made, though it will take days to get enough gold to make use of it.

Artica

A fine day... not... things are slowly developing for us

Merlin is weak and has few defenders. If this doesn't change over the next few days, his tower will be ours.

Artica

Well... Ke-nan can test the waters if likes in our tower but soon he will see what our forces have been up to....

Tomorrow we make a very large purchase.

Artica

We got rid of that other pesky bird... now we move to shore up our defenses while also working on another secret project.

Huge gains today. We have defeated the pathetic Merlin with acceptable losses, and have made a very useful purchase.

Artica

Well... looks like we're falling further behind with the news about Merlin... wonder what will happen next.

late post:

Now that we've purchased the abandoned wizard's tower, we can stop saving and start spending on troops.

Rescued a hero to lead our underground troops.

Artica

Well... our other adventures are not turning out well for us. We do press on.

Our troops are starting to move.

Artica

Well... we carry on and watch the borders...

Found another wizard's lands.
