    Flying units have to make a morale check to fly over enemies, and the more there are the harder, but thats pretty rough. That guy just can't get a break.

    Seems like Jarvis got airshield researched at the exact right time, as far as I saw he never used it until the final battle against Caelum.

    This is looking like the second game in a row going to the wolfmans. Guess we'll have to start planning on killing them first in future games.

    I went to airshield quickly with only a small detour along the way.

    I didn't use it early because it wasn't needed at number of troops I was seeing vs the research slowdown of having casters wandering around with the army just to do that (especially when they were better employed shooting caelum's commanders and so immobilizing those raiding groups) come thunderstrike though which was another milestone for me it was time to start sending out the casters.

    I'm convinced that thunderstrike is the singe most effective spell in the game for it's cost to cast and research.

    Well played though.
    I was sincere in my original offer to stop at the second mountain range, same when I said to Caelum this is our border take it or leave it.

    Completely undiplomatic but at that point I was researching construction and if the two of you had left me along I'd have been in the sea before long mixing it up with atlantis (i've bad memories of R'lyeh from last game but this time it's been nowhere near as bad).

    So far this game i've never had to face the undivided attention of more then one nation at a time, even now Atlantis and Agatha seem to be at war with each other as well as me.

    Aha. Seems like I need to reread the manual at some point.

    Maybe so, but having 5 provinces doesn't get you very far. Especially when you don't have spectacular national troops. I suppose I could have sailed over to the other side of the map to expand, but Caelum offered a joint-strike at that same time, and that's what I went with.

    It's wedge99 himself who normally processes the turns that we're waiting for.

    I considering that we might want to just process the turn, last turn I finally broke through his walls and I'm storming his castle and last province this turn.

    This is the same army that defeated his much larger army before and he's been unable to recruit more troops because of being under siege so I can't see him doing anything but die this turn.

    It's not polite of course not to give him the chance so I'm planning on processing it sunday morning if it's not already been done.

    Ah he's read the post and done the turn.

    Thanks for the game wedge99, will you be joining in the next one that's likely to start at some point (there's one slowly being discussed in the noobs reloaded thread).

    Wedge99 asked for someone to take over hosting when he went out, if no one else wants the job I know what i'm doing from last time.

    Awesome, thanks very much for the game as Jarvis said, sorry we wouldn't save ya from the big bad wolf :-/

    And I think it's some kinda record that we've managed to get three turns in within a couple of hours of the turn being posted lol

    The 2h files for the turn just gone were deleted in the moving of files in dropbox, I think i've restored the right files and my turn looks correct but please tell me if yours are also right.

    Also go sign up for the team game in the other thread. Please.

    Edited to say that was an interesting effect from the flying monkeys.

    Sarigs, you've got your turn file in the dropbox, not the 2host file.

    Yeah it confused the hell out of me to be honest, I kinda assumed it would either work and they'd be no fight beyond what ever PD you dropped into or it wouldn't due to weight and a fight would happen.

    You ended up moving and fighting off the monkeys which is just odd

    I didn't fight off the monkeys, it looks like the attempt to carry you away isn't a roll but an actual battle, when I watched it they did sleep damage and knocked my guy out.

    Having succeeded they carried my bloke back to where i assume you cast the spell and that province didn't have any pd to fight so I just got control.

    And the peasants rejoiced for on this day the black fiend Qudarrath was cast back into the pit by the One true god Omega Henge, Lord of Might.

    P.s. FINALLY

    Nah I think I'm done with dom for a time. PBEM format isn't really me I've found.
    Thanks for the game though.

    Laiskbear, you've put your turn file into the folder, not your 2h file.
