MP: *Noobieworld* Fast game for noobs! (ended)

[Von_Altair]

Ok since votes are 3/4 now, host will work with 24h from this moment (quickhost still on). Although mr. lying backstabber wont need that long, since you will be released from your provinces and your heavy burden will be over

[Frozen Lama]

lolz. cool with me.

[P3D]

FL,
how long do you want to continue?

[Frozen Lama]

well its pretty inevitable now isn't it? too darn many flyers. lol. i finished researching and now i get to test out how many mages i can lose in a single turn. lol. we could probably call it a game i guess. theres no way you can lose now.

so yeah, we can call it a game. great job P3D. make sure you report it to the HoF

[P3D]

Have to admit, I had two great magic sites - 40% Blood and 20% Construction bonuses (though looking at your loremasters you should not complain either).
I don't think they mattered much, though. I could have easily doubled my blood hunting to compensate for that, and had a lot of gem income that I did not use.
My Rain of Toads/Horror spam seemed pretty efficient from the outside.

I guess my win means I should not take part in any more new Noob games...

[Trumanator]

I'm going to venture out and say that stealing the chalice was what really sealed the deal. That and FL's abysmal N and D incomes.
The toads spam was definitely effective, the horror spam probably a bit less so.
I was impressed though by how effective the jags were as bodyguards for your mages, the manifestation/earth attack spam was wiping Aby from what I could see.

[Frozen Lama]

yeah, what trumanator said. Not having really any astral magic at all was also really crippling. only reason i survived as long as i did was because of FotA giving me super cheap artifacts and really really cheap clams

[P3D]

That surprised me too. 5 of them with F9W9(N4) bless was pretty effective, and the Elementals could not trample them due to high defense. So I did not have to bother with Rings of Warning and devil bodyguards.

Was the early game Death income spent on skull mentors to get so high research?

I would not have wasted N gems to GoR the Tartarians Monstrums. They still fly, have 2 attack and a load of HP.

My Astral magic was only slightly better - S2 Moon Priests vs. S1 Enaries. That's still 4 empowerment to cast Wish. I was also clamming for half the price, that's why I could afford it.

By the last turn I finally got my Tartarian factory going.

F9W9 bless worked for the Pegasus Riders just as fine.

[Frozen Lama]

it was weird, i only made about 5-7 skull mentors, and i had a drain scale. i just had a ton of money and built a huge amount of enaries.

lol i had 75% off my clams. 3w1n gems. same for bloodstones.

and yeah, those pegasus riders were nasty in the end.

on the last turn, a Doom Horror, the Eater of Gods attacked my gorgon. never seen a doom horror before. survived thanks to armor of virtue though. lol.

[Frozen Lama]

i'm assuming we're done, so i won't need to submit a turn file right? P3D did, so umm yeah..
