Re: So near yet so very, very, very far
After much pondering and wondering, Man has decided to send the following answer to Skaven: 'We hate your guts'. Do I look like a dastard bastard of the 'dagger in your back' traitor type? (That, and I've taken heavy losses without actually fighting anybody. I shudder to think what would happen if I met a real army.)

Man or louse ?
We Skaven find ourselves wrestling with alien concepts such as "pity" and "shame" when we look to our eastern neighbour.
We Skaven didn't think, for a moment, Man had the courage to fight its never ending slide into complete and utter irrelevance. For that is the fate of Man.
For now Man remains a vassal/slave of Ulm. The seers predict after the fall of Skavenblight you will cease to have any utility at all to your Ulmish masters except as possessing a couple of magic sites that Ulm covets and will look to make its own.

Erk, plaguerats. They are seriously nasty. I was really really lucky I only had PD there when you attacked with them.

Re: Man or louse ?
For the love of Goddess, will someone *please* shut down the bloody rat speakers? Their ramblings are getting tiresome... though we may slaughter their men... their creatures by the drove, so do they. Such is the harsh fate of the poor human nations, where mages are few (I'm just above Ulm in that department, it seems) and troops are... well, where's my infantry?
Right. Let's hope Skaven doesn't have any other army to throw my way, 'cuz I'm only any real good at taking down PD.

They were sneaking not attacking - that is the problem with low morale, low value stealth +0 units - PD finds them easily and then they die.
We note another case of Ulmish cowardice - run, diseased man things, run from the walls of Skavenblight.
Those who wish to harm Ulm - we continue to take donations. Death gems would be lovely as would earth.

Rats to go down with ship
HMS Skavenblight is preparing to go under with all hands. Our ever-diminishing hordes (well more accurately raiding parties/roadkill) are finding themselves unable to hold off the hordes (literally) of flagellants marching, rather aimlessly I might add, in the general direction of our capital.
Man appears to have had a stiff drink and prepared to return to fray ... we applaud the effort we really do.

Re: Rats to go down with ship
Arga Dis went under. Had we placed our mages forward a bit, and had decoys, we feel that Bandar Log's god would have gone down with a number of afflictions. However, with our entire army smashed+most mages dead, Tien Chi invading and one turn from our capital, 87 unrest in the capital thanks to spells by Tien Chi (presumably, since bandar log hasn't cast any so far), and pretty much no blood remaining, and our other fort seiged, the AI can handle things just as well...

What would you say the determining factor in your demise was?

Re: Rats to go down with ship
Good fight sum1, that was a proper slugfest all the way through and you did much better than i expected in the final battle. /salute
Hate to tell you this, but had you marched straight to my capitol after your big victory about a yeear ago you would have had me, I had no more forces at that point.
It's too bad that your territory is as poverty stricken as my own and my victory is largely empty.
