Our quest has started. There's a lot more to tell of course but we won't since the mountains and the forests have ears...

it could possibly be because the game title was too long, and it didnt save on LtR's computer... happened to me twice...

after ridding a node of some pests who had settled there, the happy spirit of magic has given me a quest.

it would take me away from where i originally had planned to go, so i must decide what to do.

ts

The spirit of order tasked me with defeating some infidels. The reward was a shiny new sword.

Note to mapmaker: I noticed the reputations of myself and Ulmrat start with some disparity, Ulmrat being powerful whereas Felix starting as weak.

dont worry... things equal out after a little bit...

have faith!

Walking our quiet halfling land.

LordTheRon: please make sure I can send you the turn, as the mail bounced.

Troubles, troubles and even more troubles. The only good news thusfar is that we haven't seen any Elves or Halflings yet!

our quest takes us away from where we want to go...

A few more villages joined our side with great enthousiasm.

The capture of an independant village greatly strengthened our spirits.

made a daring play on the object of our quest before they could get away by heading to the hills, and it paid off... although it cost us a little.

our halfling allies seem to be doing very well...

TS

Added more resources to our side.

Note: when using automatic sending, the game bounces back every time. It happened today as well and I will resend manually tonight.

Slowly advancing. Looks like a few more outposts will join us tomorrow, be it with or without force.

TS

No action to speak of this day.

I did witness the greedy water hogs led by the chief criminal Jeremia Hayseed (only surpassed in treacherous and greedy deeds by the vile and self rightous elves) do battle with wandering beasts of the dessert. They are a little too close for comfort.

Two more halfling villages were liberated today.

The thieving halflings enlisted the help of two mercenary zephyr birds and one was used to disrupt my mana production by thieving a source. Unfortunately for the bird, it's thieving days are no more.

Trouble is brewing in the north...

and trouble is brewing down below...

the glutton seems to be making his way to my capital!
with my forces all tied up in the assault to the south, it looks like this will be a race to each others capital!

I'd also like to add that it looks like the orcs dont have a wizards tower yet!

... the race is on!

TS

How the hell could we ever have payed one???

My poor planning resulted in the loss of two hunters and a shredder to some camp goblins. I seemed to have forgotten the art of patience. Must rethink. Lack of water in my realm must be clouding my thoughts.

Rushing to the scene of the battle between elves and orcs.

Hrmpf...

Turn sent

the goblins made a mistake and split their forces. while they managed to kill my scout, they left themselves very vulnerable... and my men were happy to take advantage of the situation!

the goblin village is now ours, and we start to consolodate our forces, now knowing that we will reach their wizard before the glutton reaches ours!

TS

my computer crashed on me a few times tonight (i think because of too much heat...) while I was trying to get out my large stack of turns. I'
m not sure if this was a game that crashed on me, but if I got a restart, that is why.

It looks like my friend Ulmrat is in a bit of a pickle. I guess that puts me in a pickle too.

It is time for us to clean up this land from the followers of Fire.

Our situation is even worse than we had anticipated. But we won't give in so easily!

an outpost was taken from the orcs, and my armies continue their march.
the orc threat is no longer dire. we wonder how fast that gluton can swim...

TS

sorry about being so slow getting my turns out... I'm extreemly busy right now.

The only way I could lose the unprotected village was if Haysead conjured a creature. And,.. what did he do? Damn spider killed a shredder before he was brought down.

But,.. I have bigger problems than that now. Hayseed and his substantial army are at the entrance to my valley.

Killed two of Felix' minions today. A larger battle will occur soon.

Things surely look hopeless, yet we won't surrender!

lost some good units overnight to independants... they seem to have a much better army then the orcs do....

TS

I led my forces in a desperate attack to repel the invading halflings. The good news was hayseed was defeated. The bad news is he only visited the void and will reincarnate at his wizard tower. Hey, why don't I have a wizard tower? Other bad news is that hayseeds sheriff is still around as well as some other greedy halflings coming down the vale to the west.

Note: unfortunately, I have a restart this turn because of the new hard drive, a turn in which a crucial battle took place. Sorry for this, espially in a WL game. It is regrettable but, I had little choice. Bottom line - no cheating took place.
