Another day of maneuvering and advancing.
Turn sent, restart generated when AoW crashed right to my desktop. Only one battle, and it didn’t turn out so well for me anyway.

Hmmm, the Dark Elves are moving fast! I’ve spotted them in the North, and rounding the corner to the South. Things could get very interesting, and quicker than I thought . . .

Dark Elves - Day 4
Finally met our enemies. Chiefs couldn't control men and engaged into battle. Only one enemy berseker left. Just having killed many enemy units make me happy. We will train more soldiers.

Ugh, my Northen forces are reduced to one lonely berzerker. Instead of attacking the Human city he will scout the area for more orcs and dark elves.
My southern force has also been distracted from occupying the human city there as well. My Iron Maiden intercepted the first wave of Darkelves and was wounded badly in the battle. And a stronger enemy force seems to be coming in a second wave, which is quite worrisome.

Elme has reached my Iron Maiden and has healed her, and together they advance toward Arachna's realm, capturing a windmill along the way.
The Berserker wandering around on the glacier hasn't found anything interesting yet . . .

Oops, I left a Gladerunner a bit too close to the road, and Arachna’s personally lead troops made quick work of the poor soul. But I now know what I am facing, and I make battle plans to face these new forces.

Pokt Island has been briefly liberated but the local residents are not happy. We shall see how long this situation last.
Arachna's forces reclaim a windmill with heavily enchanted forces, and I do not like the odds of a pitched battle with them. Perhaps in another day or two, when my forces are a bit more organized.

It is good to hear from you Manuk!

My forces are advancing again, reinforced with another hero and more shock troops. Elves are also advancing from the North while Dwarves are now pouring over the mountains. An epic battle seems eminent.

Huh, apparently I didn’t bring enough reinforcements. The Iron Maiden, two heroes, a nymph, and a stack of unicorns and xbowmen all lie dead. Another lagging xbowman is mowed down as Arachna’s troops continue their surge through the gap toward Bayou and Elven lands. The Windmill is also captured, and Arachna herself advances to the many artifacts that proved to be so useless to my heroes.
Whether desperate, or inspired, or perhaps both: the DarkElves stage a major coup and completely reverse the tide of the war. Human, Dwarven and Elven habitats have little time to produce defenders.

I launch a desperate counter-offensive in an attempt to distract Arachna's advancing army. The Elves in the North suffer serious causalties, but in the end of the battle Highpass is secured. The Dwarves in the west have made it over the mountain and capture the firenode. The Druids from the lake are a day out from Pokt Island. All three forces aim to rendevous at Arachna's capital to take advantage of the Dark Queen's abscense. The die has been cast, and I wait to see how it lands.

Pokt Island has been captued without a fight, and the druids press on to the capital. The Dwarves also press ahead, aimimg to meet up with the Druids. In the North only one elf remains, but he is accompanied by a Dwaf and an Orc partisan, and these will meet up with the others in a day. A day after that the atack of Arachna's capital begins.
The Bayou is under siege; aparantly Arachna has decided against direct assult for the moment. Or perhaps it is just a pause as she continues West and Nort into Elven lands? At this point in time I would be willing to trade the Bayou for Arachna's WIzard Tower. The upcomimg turns should clarify things.

Ugh -- Bayou has fallen, and without much of a fight.
Arachna's capital, however, is under siege. If it can be taken next turn and held, then my long term prospects look good. Hillberg has been reinforced sufficiently to repell any attack on Elven soil.

Arachna's capital is fallen, and now she is without a Wizard Tower. I will try to keep her pinned down in the Bayou, if that is at all possible. So far she has moved around at will.

Arachna has abandoned Bayou, and two brave Unicorns have rescued it. Their Dwarven reinforcements are not far behind.
Pokt island has also been reclaimed, so now Arachna seems to be without a city, unless she has secured the underground goblin village (bad luck for my unicorns if this is the case!)

Even without a city, Arachna continues to destroy my forces. My Druids, Dwarves and Elves were wiped out -- I'm back to gathering stragglers and reinforcements into something of an army. My advesary is as slippery as an eel, and it has been impossible thus far to get close enough to attack her.

Serena -- Elves – Epilogue
Finally, finally I was able to catch up with the elusive Wizard. My remaining troops kamakazeed, and Arachna was finally brought down. I fear that her ghostwill haunt the land forever.
Good game Manuk, it took everything that I had to squeeze out the victory.
