		Pan, thanks for the prompt delivery of the fertilizer we ordered (along with the bonus trinkets).  Unfortunately, it seems to be tainted and we will be returning it to you shortly. 
And for those of you wondering what to do with your water gems, Pans land trodding Water Queen is now a free agent.

				Giants killed a Horror.. woohoo!
			 
             
			
		
		
		
		Alas... Utgard has not had nuch to cheer about lately.  However I'd like to share that the big fellas managed to take down a Horror with mostly elbow grease.  Took quite a while and lost a bunch of boys but a pretty dang good fight againt the woodtick from beyond.

 S,
 
The giants expect no quarter! 
 
- Utgard Ministry of Doom Horrors
 
ooc - This is all very very good stuff for me to experience as a new user.  There are a lot of "big sticks" in this game and I hope to get banged over the head with as many as possible.     I kick myself daily for Utagrd's poor early/mid research in the Alexandria game.  Rampaging giants and kitted Werewolves are fun and can be dominant early game but late game strategies are magic magic magic...  Reminds me of the HOMM games.
