We watch Arachna's actions with interest. Fortune has smiled on us, as a hero offers his services at the orcish village in enemy territory.

Arachna - Day 24
All possible ways are blocked Julia and Marinus focus their attacks on my structures, and every time my units step on their domain, divine storms fall from the sky.
Retreating from all fronts!
TS

Attacked Julia rather stupidly and lost.

Arachna - Day 25
Skulkan bats are back, over the mountains, unaccessible to my bombers.
TS

- Restart message when unloading one unit from my ship. I had three units in it and wanted to unload only one of them, the game crashed. I did not have battles (today or in the near future) nor enemies within reach.

Mostly troop movement.

Arachna - Day 26
Marinus left the northern island, so my hero is recovering some much needed income structures.
TS

We took Arachna's old capitol again, but there was some confusion about who was supposed to participate in the fight.

Arachna
And now, the elves are invading my land, I am not sure if it is still my land, I have only one city left there.
My former capitol was taken by Skulkan today.
TS

Got a very useful reward for completing a quest. They are already on the move.

Arachna - Day 29
Met the prize Skulkan was talking about: two hydras, along with other water walking units are threatening my only city.
That group and another of Julia forced me to leave my land and seek for refugee on the island.
TS

Arachna has fled to the northwestern island with some settlers, while we conquer her lightly defended capitol. With no settlements left, we doubt she has the income to pay her troops much longer.

My gold reserves did not help to keep my units fighting for me. Some of them have deserted.
TS

It is almost over for me.
TS

Foolishly, we completely missed the purpose of the settlers. Having rebuilt the razed teleporter, Arachna and her remaining forces teleported directly into my territory. Luckily I had some decent troops nearby...they were able to attack and do some decent damage before being killed. It's now unlikely the remaining forces will be able to take over my capitol.

If Marinus' powerful runemasters go through the teleporter as well, however, things could get dicey.

We died fighting.
TS

Excellent game Springheel. Thanks.
I think your bats were a main reason for your victory. I did well with my sucubbus but I lost it fighting your pack of heroes.

Yes, when I lost my hero stack I thought I was finished. If it weren't for the bats I'm not sure I would have been able to get a foothold in your territory quickly enough.

I'm up for another if you're interested.

Sure.
Random map perhaps? It is your turn to create it
If you'd like to include AI wizards maybe we can ask someone else to get the Emperors improved.
