I wouldn't call the successful siege of Argatha's capital a mad suicide rush! How many PD was that anyways? Good thing PD can't retreat and survive.

Our only neighbor is the friendly Caleum, who is tied up in other wars. We <3 him too.

The server was apparently down for a few hours yesterday, and then recovered. Maybe the internet connection here went down or something, I don't know. Anyway, hopefully it acknowledged your turn in the end Hadrian_II?

Using that many mages at the beginning I called a suicide rush becuase it will leave you vunerable later in the game due to low magic research. I have never come across that strategy before. It is as hard to defend against as an early Van rush.

Sounds like it is a viable strategy, then, having a second fort without paying to build it and with lots of income, and it should be paying off in short and long term.

It is a viable strategy. It is quite a good one that I am impressed with, and probably the only that could have been used to cut through my defenses.It just has its risks. That suicidal mad rush statement was meant to be taken as an exageration.

In particular giant bolts of armor negating lightning seem good at breaking big lines of Argathan heavy infantry. This is especially true considering how useless the longbow archers are against them.

C'tis has the sad duty to inform the world of the untimely demise of the Ulmish nation. After all their claims about order being found in the rule of steel, they gave lies to their own words, and staged an unprovoked, unorderly and above all suicidal attack upon the C'tissian homelands. Today, their capitol and remaining army were destroyed by our valiant expeditionary force, and while fewer than a dozen men still try do defy us by barricading themselves in a small border castle in the high mountains, the nation of Ulm has effectively departed to brighter lands.

Let us pray for their redemption.

Sankriss, God of Invincible Power

Greetings, if anyone is at war with anyone else and the armies of Anfar God of the Vans can help, we will gladly answer the call for the price of retaining what we conquer!

Wars? Caelum is at war with 1 nation, the pious, religious fanatics of Marignon. Its hardly a war, however, when battle is joined the priests fall to there knees, nodding there heads in religious ectasy. It is there last act in this world as my mammoths send them to the next one.

I consider it a great act of benevolence bringing the priests of Marignon closer to there god...

Caelum, can confirm our good relations with the stalwart warriors of Man, however.

On a side note, we found gems, 2 to be exact, it only took 10 turns of searching!

The great Caelum gem shortage!
