Well, that was probably the stupidest thing I've done this game so far. When massing troops at Ene Umrul, I neglected to account for the fact that Fire Snakes need to eat, resulting in mass starvation and disease. So invasion #3 has been thwarted without even making contact with the enemy.

I think that since Summer Lions have "need not eat", I falsely assumed that this was a general rule for all magic beings. Looks like nope!

You know, I always had that problem with fire snakes two. They kinda suck because of that. (And somehow, they always seem to cost a lot of supplies...)

Wow, those devils are very persuasive. "Dude, you should totally attack the biggest, most brutally powerful thing in this army. No really, it'll be great. I'll be right behind you."

Yeah apparently snakes are very gullible. Who knew.

Sadly their masters are not.

And once again the battle reports don't match the replays. Lost 7 skrattir. Replay says I lost none.

No. But three perfectly useless research mages with Lightless Lanterns were eaten, which is odd because I've had dozens of the suckers working around the clock for like fifty turns and have seen precisely one horror attack prior to this point. Does Astral Corruption increase the odds of that happening?

Also, my Gift of Health was forced out on the very turn on which I experimentally summoned my first Tartarian. FML.

Astral Corruption? Jotunheim, you dare bring this blight upon the world?

The Bakemono cannot abide this. You have negated our ability to use magic, and we regard this as an act of war. Our NAP is hereby abolished, and we are making preparations to attack you and rid the world of the abomination you have created.

As you have, up until now, been an honorable neighbor, we shall not attack you blindly. We grant a one-turn reprieve, and you can expect attacks starting on the following turn.
