The War begins…
TS

Scouts were sent to all directions.

First victory today – two awful frogs were killed.
TS

I killed two creatures too.

I continue to explore.
TS

My soldiers are to slow...

Some goblins were punished today.
TS

Slowly moving on... Contact with Serena.

My scouts reports about Arachna moving with a large army to the south. Swamp isn't a good place for fight. But I must stop this Spiderqueen and her awful minions. Soon we'll have a great bloodshed in the swamp.
TS

Today my magic boar beeing very hungry met a wandering elven archer. Elf was so scared, that had missed all his shots. Now boar is not so hungry... But tommorow he will be.

My scout has successfully hunted down a hungry boar. What a nice meat we will have now Today I will organise a small banquet for my people.
Meantime a group of my ally dwarves entered a human town in the south. These good humans agreed to give a protection against Arachna and her minions. Together we have more chances to survive.
TS

Today we captured a human town to the south. Elven army was defeated too. Now the road to the north is open.

A large defeat in the south. But why my stupid dwarves didn’t fight together with humans?
TS

Moving on through the swamps.

Preparing some trap for next hungry boar
TS

Only local maneurs.

Unexpectedly an orcs presence was noticed in the north caves. A scout was sent into the caves to investigate the situation.
TS

Brave spearman has fallen, but his cousins will avenge him.

Game results after 10 turns played - Dark Elves control South, Light Elves control North – draw

Situation will change soon.

We’ll see…
TS

Today my strike force captured dwarven village in the west part of the world. While one of elven heros and iron maiden are guarding northern human town, I can plunder other elven lands.

With large losses, joint forces of elves and dwarves have recaptured the dwarves city. The death of Arachna's best servant and a spider queen has enhanced greatly the fighting spirit of my warriors.
South is now free from evil creatures. But North region is still crowded with foul orcs.
TS

End of that battle should be different... Full health bladedancer was killed by 1 hp unicorn

Trying to reorganize forces...

Two mines was snatched out of Arachna's hands.
TS

Preparing a welcome for Serena's hero.

TS

Human city, gold mine and fire node were taken away from Arachna.
TS

P.S. Restart due to the game crush. BTW, I had a battle with you on this turn. If you want, we can replay this turn once again, but I think the battle wasn’t so important.

Building up defences...

No need to replay turn. I trust you (hope you trust me too )

Windmill recaptured from Arachna.
Regrouping for march towards Arachna's Capital.
TS

Killed a spy and recaptured a node.

... TS ...

Another Arachna’s village joined our empire.

A large orcs army appeared in the south region. My forces had to leave this nice halfling village. But we'll be back.
TS

Created some poison plants to defend my lands.

A day of sorrow. One of my best heroes was killed in the skirmish near the orcs village
Light forces are temporarily retreating in the south region, but I have some achievements in the north region - an orcs village was captured today.
TS

We have hope again! At least I can protect my home now.

Meanwhile my rogue party caused some mischief in Serena's homelands.

Sorry, but I have to disappoint you - you can't protect your home. I have more troops in that region than you probably think. I have two squads of 8 humans and 5 halflings, 1 orc, 1 valkiria, 1 unicorn, 1 elves spy. Even without a hero, 1 valkiria, 1 unicorn and 1 elves rogue defeated Arachna with 1 blade dancer.
Thanks for an exciting game. It's always interesting to play with you. As for me, this map is fine and interesting, but I think, it's easier to play with elves against Arachna than with dark elves against Serena. But it's only my humble opinion

The last turn sent
