ts

A'Shir day 5

Need to work on the income.

ts

ts. Lost a couple of units. A proud wallbashing creature and a show-of of a gladiator have meet their deaths. But the rewards will be worth it, I hope, some blocked of ways are cleared

ts

f*****! lost so many important units in a mean sneak attack from indies. Grrrr. Hopefully just a small setback, and not the straw that broke the camels back

ts

ts. another foolish battle. this is certainly not the best I can do is it?

A'Shir

This is not going as planned at all. I have suffered some heavy losses the last few days, and need to change my plans completely. Plan B is set into motion...

ts

ts. Im regrouping too

A'Shir day 10

A'Shir

Ne'khan's scouts has seen me crossing the water.
They are out of reach for now, so I will focus on fixing some income and maybe a new city tomorrow.

ts

A'Shir


Got myself a nice Goblin town, and sent my forces out to cross the river.

Ne'khan has placed a stack close to the frostling city, so it might be a fight quite soon...

ts

cant prevent d-day. Must regroup. Invoking secret project alpha.

A'Shir

Landed in frostling territory, and found that Ne'khan did not flee far enough with his troops. All seven were killed and I lost only my swashbuckler. I am beginning to think that I can push this a little further...

ts

Why turtle it out when you can go all in? Oh dammit. Shouldnt have done that. Now what to do.... F***ck.

Lost lots of unit, and he didnt lose enough sadly

A'Shir

Ne'khan attacked me during the night. Seems like I walked into a trap... But anyway, the trap was not tough enough.
I lost 7 units in the fight, but killed 9.

After this fight I took down two more units standing alone.

All in all these two days have been very good for me, and I have forces left to continue my journey. Could even buy a Troll in the recruitment site...

ts

ts. its uphill from now but maybe, just maybe it can be done

************

New post friday: Im traveling this weekend. It will mean two things: 1) I might not be able to send my turns i due time - next turn expected may be as late as sunday evening. 2) I'll change playing from my desktop/homecomputer to my laptop - which will create a restart message. Bjørn

A'Shir

Moving for the tower and Ne'khan himself.
We'll see tomorrow what he has waiting for me...

ts

ts - showdown very soon

A'Shir day 21

Ne'khan decided to meet me on the road to his tower. He was waiting there for me to attack, probably knowing that this was the end. I summoned a hellhound to take the unguarded tower, and went for the battle with all I had.
Ne'khan was sent to void with no possibility of return.

ts

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Banished to the void and never to return. :-(

The game never went well for me. And it degraded steeply downhill, once Astir catched a reasonable but sadly compared to his to samll army during his landfall invasion of my lands.

Thanks for the fight, hopefully I'll be more of a opponent another time around. GL with the tournement.

TNS reporting from the scene where Costa just obtained his third victory, and sails through to the next rounds.

Costa, congratulations on reaching the second rounds. A victory in 20 days is quite fast, how did you manage to do this?

Badborre_dk, it seems the options are still open for you. Will this increase the tension for you?

My plan was to build up an invasion army as soon as possible. I focused on taking the income structures including the dwarven town and frostling town. Some recruitment sites were taken as well of course.

I suffered a major setback when trying to take the recruitment site near the frostling town. I tried to save a day by attacking with the units that could reach it. It was a disaster, with alot of successful freezing, and I lost my two heroes and also some other decent units.

However, I knew that badborre also had lost some units, so I gathered the best army I could find in 3-4 days, and went across the river. Borre did not have any units along the waterfront except scouts, so I decided to take the Goblin town before advancing.

When I started the invasion, I suppose we had more or less equally units. I was given the chance of taking down one stack of units before fighting the rest.
If I had to attack all of them in one fight it could have been much harder.

After two successful battles, there were too few units left to defend the wizard.

Thanks for the game! I really like this map.

This was only my second play of the map and now I have lost both. I must learn to play it better.

Yes it increases the tension on my other maps. Color is going all right, diffucult to guess the winner we havent felt easch others teeth yet. Rocky? I may have the upper hand, but my financiel situation is losy. Considering looting my own towns just to get money to buy units. :-)
