pyrhic, I love how you threw like 20 mages and 20 blessed giants in your capital right at my menacing, hideous, glorious…

SCOUT

lulz

pyrhic · 2013-03-07T06:45:47.000Z

You asked me to come out and play, I thought we were all gonna be there and play some baseball.

If no one will play with me, I guess my giants will just have to go and win the world series again or something…

sharaleo:

Hey dfs, did you pay attention to my PM asking you to change the email addy I need turns sent to?

Done Today. Sorry. My Bad. It was…the ponies…the ponies and Pythia!..Blame them!

48 hours has been added to the tour to keep sharaleo from staling again. This time it would be due to my failure. You’ll have to ask the server to send you the last turn and it should go to your “new” address. If it doesn’t get to you let me know.

Nate · 2013-03-09T08:19:35.000Z

Nice use of Lizard Shamans, wahoo. And where are you getting elephants? I want to airdrop on that province real quick.

The Folly of Man

yeowch.

Seriously unless we act in unison to take down the pony people, this one may be that short sweet game we’ve been looking for.

Well played sir. I see battles where your mistformed units have a defense in the high twenties and a higher protection. The stealth just makes it…well, worse.

yeowch indeed.

Nate · 2013-03-11T21:41:54.000Z

I’ve got things planned for you should you decide to come for me. That research graph is fairly telling, dfs. And I see you’re marching around a Marble Oracle. Wasn’t that what Scribble used against everyone in the KillScribble game?

I didn’t last that long in that game.

Really? Do those plans involve moving your 300 army strength force from my lands? Or maybe the 10 army str from Man’s? Perhaps you seek to move your 40 army str spearmen that are on the border of agartha? Or you could also move the 40 you have researching. Finally, i guess you could tap the 50 army str that I don’t have direct visibility to, of course those might just be newly frocked infantry to replace the ones i slaughtered, or archers to replace those I blinded.

Should’ve taken the money Nate…

I don’t have any doubt at all that Nate can decimate both Pythia’s and my armies the same way that he did to man. He’s got…some nice thugs and this is the part of the game where thugs/scs matter far more than how many regular troops you can muster.

Barring coherent action from all sides, I don’t see how Nate can lose. Now ask yourself how often in a dominions game have you really seen everybody gang up on a leader? We complain about it happening, but somebody is always late to the party and so and so holds back his best surprise for when all his foes are weak and have exhausted fighting each other and…It just doesn’t really happen. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll take my swings, but it’s hard to see Nate losing this one.

woof…woof.

pyrhic · 2013-03-12T07:44:58.000Z

So then don’t face him with armies - the right mage in the wrong place can make all the difference.

Have you seen agarthian mages? I got nothing.

It’s because of people like you that Colorado lost its hockey team…

Why would I attack my friend and ally Pythia? It was all of you that started this by trying to gang up on a poor innocent nation. Just consider me the US acting as a police state. Tuathas are stealth bombers. Etc.

If Pythia is your ally then all is lost. You control Pythia and Caleum and have already defeated Man and Ashdad. I hold out little hope for my ability to counter what you have shown.

OOOO, when did I get Caelum on my side? I had no idea! I mean, an NAP is an NAP, sure, but it’s far from an alliance. Though, thinking about it: sharaleo, would you like to take on Man or Agartha with me? Good times to be had by all.

I’m not finished yet. I’m cursing some of his best commanders and killed at least 1, left antoher diseased etc. I’ve had some bad losses but nothing overwhelming. Help is needed, but I have a few tricks left. My invasion forces were decimate in part b/c I was dumb. But we’ll see if I can pull it out yet.

sharaleo · 2013-03-13T06:31:44.000Z

Oh shit, did I stale? I staled, didn’t I?. Goddamn it, I can’t believe I staled! Oh well, at least I legitimately have an really valid excuse this time.

In addition to cursing, I also hung all the toilet paper in my realm in the improper underhanded manner, and set all the clocks to the wrong time! so there!
