Hello everyone...
Updated (20/4/01)
Report by Player: Game 52 (1650) just finished today, with a win for the
Free People on turn 16. The top 3 nations on the Free People side were:
Eothraim at 1400 VP, Haradwaith at 1375 VP, Corsairs at 1367 VP
Of the neutrals Rhudaur stayed neutral the whole game, but managed to take
out Cardolan on his own (Arthedain(me) was busy with the Witch King at the
time :). The rest had joined, or was joining, the Free People.
Most of them complained about a lack of response from the Dark Servants,
and also heard little or nothing from them during the game, which made
recruiting them for the Free People easy.
Not sure how many we took out, but at least the Witch King and Blind
Sorcerer was in the game, the WK being down to 2305 as his MT left, which
was under siege by the Dwarves while waiting for enough forces to capture
it.
So a big thanks to all in this game, and a very big one to Michael Kamine
for his excellent play as Eothraim
