Day 1
We explore carefully ...

Halflings day 1

We carefully scout the surrounding area.

Turn sent!

Day 2
More exploration and found some friends who demanded all our hard-earned cash.

Halflings day 2

We keep scouting the neighbourhood and we wish we had more money.

Turn sent!

Highmen Day 3
Enjoying the map (so far). Lots of fun (& too expensive) things to discover

Halflings day 3

We have met some goblin and some lizardman scouts already. Wonder how they will react on our presence?

Turn sent!

Halflings day 4

Lots of decisions to make. Where to go, what to do, who to fight...

Turn sent!

Halflings day 5

There are potential enemies everywhere. We are a bit uncertain of what to do...

Turn sent!

Highmen Days 4 & 5
We met a goblin and the next day they declared war. Very unfriendly. We explored a dungeon on Day 4 but had to get out as our hero's life was hanging by a thread. We tried again on Day 5 and were successful.

Halflings day 6

Our friendly neighbours are walking about, stealing all resources in the area. We will soon have to make war on one of them.

Turn sent!

Hmm ... it seems to be Day 7. I've lost a day somewhere.

A good start to the day with the Azracs declaring war. I haven't even seen an azrac yet so not sure what we did to offend them so much.

Other than that, we're still exploring ... there's so much to explore that by the next day, we tend to have forgotten where we were going

Halflings day 7

We are now at war with the goblins and the lizards.

Turn sent!

Day 8
I've now seen an azrac. In fact, it took one of our mines. Very inconsiderate as gold is so vital to our plans ...

Had to make another tactical retreat from another dungeon having killed only one of the defenders. Ah well, tomorrow is another day.

Day 9
Apologies for the restart - I froze in a castle ruin and had to restart. I'm avoiding the ruin for now.

We try the dungeon again. Kill one more unicorn and wonder how many are left ... another tactical retreat.

Halflings day 8 (Late post)

We kill some lizardmen today.

Turn sent!

Halflings day 9

Some more lizards killed today.

Turn sent!

Highmen Day 10
*sigh* Now the orcs hate us too and an orc hero has trapped a small party underground. I doubt they'll survive the night. They did manage to kill off the final unicorn and rescue a very interesting prisoner though.

Halflings day 10

We took some more resources from the lizards, but in return they stole some for us during the night.

Turn sent!

Highmen Day 11
Oh wonderful, now the lizards and dark elves have declared war on us. We feel very hated.

We are stealing many resources from the Goblins, but fear there will be tears before bedtime when they notice.

We killed a lizard hero who was taking a short cut through out land.

Halflings day 11

We keep attacking the lizards.

Turn sent!

Highmen
The Elves seem determined to pinch every resource we head for just before us. We're advancing on the goblins.

Halflings day 12

The azracs declared war today. We are surrounded by enemies. There is so much to do, and so little time.

Turn sent!

Halflings day 13

Our scouts discovered an undead unit very close to our capital today when it was too late to put up a good solid defense. This could mean trouble.

Turn sent!

Highmen
We are having similar trouble with lizard and azrac units closer to our capital than any highmen units. The aggressive enemies are stifling any attempt for us to expand.

Halflings day 14

The undead unit was caught and killed today, before it could cause us any harm. The lizards keep showing up everywhere too, in spite of the fact that we keep pursuing them.

Turn sent!

Highmen Day 15
Azracs and lizards forcibly removed from our homeland for now. They should have walked into our unwalled capital ...

I may be able to play a turn tonight, if it's not too late, but will then be away until Saturday night.

Halflings day 15

Keeping the pressure up.

Turn sent!

Highmen
Very bad night - lost a hero to an unprovoked undead attack. Otherwise we expand more into the Goblin territory.

Highmen
We thought we'd destroyed the Goblins but there must still be some lurking. Elsewhere the Dark Elves, Lizards & Undead are taking resources from us as fast as we gather them.

Halflings day 16-17

Everywhere we go we find lizard flagged sites. They seem to have spread out rapidly.

Turn sent!
