Noob's shot at an R'lyeh AAR

My new Hybrid Lord will take the 22 troops (fodder) from C’tis and move to Talito (36) this turn.

I got a 1W, 3S, 2B mage this turn and will he will forge a Sangunie Rod (+1B for bloodhunting for 5B) for himself in order to turn him into a decent bloodhunter.

The Vastness will be send to Tiash (15) and shouldn’t have too many problems in taking this indi province. During the next turns I will send it northwards and hope the conquer all 3 indi provinces in the end which might hold some decent magic sites due to their mountainous/forest environment.


Meanwhile I am pondering my next steps and I think that Jotunheim will be my next target since more than 50% of my border are shared with Jotunheim which will sooner or later lead to a conflict with the giants anyway. And getting some giant warriors for free can surely help in future conflicts, too

Due to this I will forge a Starshine Skullcap (+1S) this turn in order to be able to field another mind enslaver

I will have to watch out for Marignon, which might have run out of room to expand easiliy into, too.


To be continued...
