Game 18 at last

Thankyou and I agree…I wasn’t looking for dirt, just general confirmation of what I was 90% certain of. I’m well aware of what was and wasn’t done in the west and I’ve taken the high road of complimenting your better moves.

Besides, no one ever plays a perfect game…so even a successful position could be criticized to some degree.

Gunderbad had 65 loyalty when you threatened it. :slight_smile:

And I had 130 or so command. And then a turn after you guys finally took all those toys off of me a brand new Dragon Lord icon appears in the middle of Mirkwood within marching distance of numerous undefended pops. Thus the sudden smattering of FP icons, a couple Woodies, Sinda from their city, even Northmen came over. That icon and the threat of those command toys moving down to the Sinda/Woodie pops was a real pain and put my nation at least a few turns back in hiring new armies off map (QA capital targetted…) and splitting out various cav armies to burn Misty camps (ie, what’s now on Gundabad again…).

It was somewhat typical of FP organization at that point when one considers that there was a Dwarf army from the Iron Hills guarding Eo pops, Woodmen guarding Sinda pops while the Sinda create then disband an army the whole while, Eothraim army guarding the Dwarf Iron Hills pops, and a Northmen force wandering somewhat aimlessly over until he just decided to kill himself on Lug G - and at some point during the existence of all these armies, they all actually had to cross over each others path to get to where the other was previously - it was, how shall I say, a reflection of the left hand not even knowing there was a right hand…

Ah…that makes sense.

The arthedain command arties were at MT. Gunderbad this turn again! lol.
I had an A42 feeding one of them to Leucaruth there. :slight_smile:

I had the dwarf arties on one of my warlords moving to threaten western PC’s.

testing - are you there Winsten?

[/QUOTE]

try that again

rob - try nothing again. i read a bit on this for memory’s sake, i still love my foster’s story on page 1 or 2, but i dearly suspect this is the 14,000 Eo archers vs Rhudaur game, as such, WHY, or WHY would you want to dredge THAT up from the misty mirky morass…??? ah well, we all gotta be famous for something, yes? most of the players in this one are still around and, yes, still get the odd opportunity to raise a glass and salute the debacle as it deserves…

:slight_smile: I was just messing with my profile. I mean - it’s such an unfeasibly pretty profile, but I think it scares off the natives :smiley:
I was supposed to be messing on the quiet and then all of a sudden it pops up there on the boards prouder than a honeymooners aah big fish story and there you go.
I read all those mails and had a laughing fit. where are the days of quality forum humour gone? :smiley: Can they come back again? Why are there pockets in undies?
Cheers - Rob aka Winsten wun toof

What a surprise!

Rob, the “man-of-quality-forum-humour” is back?

Have Fun!

Gixxx

Yes I am:) I’ve bottled up the king for 3 long years and he’s eager to be free, wreaking girlie squealin’ terror on all the other naughty forum monkeys :smiley:

… the age of changing babies is over now!

Have Fun!

Bugger that for a sad sack of soldiers, I mean baby cack and this complexion? ooooh I’d sooner die! The king says a few magic words, waves his nana of power, and then lets misses King take over the whole process :smiley:

I did stay home with the kids the year we were in Engerlund, but apparently they went feral under my tutelage. Mrs King said I’m never allowed to be in control of the kids education again :slight_smile: In fact she said I’m never allowed to stop work again either until 10 days after I die. I’m not sure when that will be but I’m looking forward to the break :smiley:

BTW did you know that I have 4 now? (No not nana’s - 4 kids :smiley:

Cheers

Winsten wun fing

Yes, I know that the tribe of the Toofs now counts 6 members!

Have Fun!

*Hi there Brad. I was wondering if you were still around (Keith put you in). He also let me know you have 2 alter egos. From today forth you shall be known as 2Brads, which is better than ArfaBrad, and a hell of alot better than 2Dogs :smiley:

Cheers

Winsten wun Rob

Arfanbrad, VEO, Player, gavin, a couple others, and this one from a Trollshaws module of the old MERP thingamabob. 2Brads - oh, no, now, the other Brad’s will get jealous…!!!

Oh my, I miss the days of many years ago fighting against the various Scotts (Nolan and another that slips my memory now…). Not sure if we ever got as good as those times, not to mention the days of newsletters. Ever see the shot of the beer keg with a sail on it…? Ah, those were the days, for sure… Now we’re left with the dregs of the dregs, where even a “barbeque at Osgiliath” post in the early game is exciting…everything’s relative. Now, which game are you going to bring relevance to…?

[QUOTE=ruggha Now, which game are you going to bring relevance to…?

What relevence? You can’t handle the relevence! You can’t even handle the handle!

I don’t think I’m going to bring relevence to anyone. Sunshine, stunning looks and an ass that’s so tight that you can crack walnuts on it, but no relevence… (actually there’s a pretty big lie in there somewhere, see if you can spot it :slight_smile:

It looks like my first outing will be the new 2 week turnaround game. Last time I asked there were only two players registered and I don’t know who the other one is so I haven’t got in any fights yet :smiley: but then again, even if there was only me playing fisty cuffs are probably inevitable :eek:

Not sure how Keith’s game’s going either. There were a couple positions unclear as to whether players were going to continue as of a week ago. If NG comes up I will take that. That would seem a long short at the moment though…

Cheers

Winsten wun game

Well…I’m the Easterlings in that one, so why don’t you take over the Northmen…? :smiley:

How do you know what you got? I thought you put down 3 choices and got whatever you got?

I put down the CL first. I’ve never played it before but he’s got a lot of recruiting towns so I figure I can field some pretty awesome Mordor armies :smiley:

That’s an extremely odd choice for me if you think about it, but everyone knows you’re serious when you charge the walls of Minas Anor with Ji Indur at the head of 500 archers :smiley: I’ll deny the NG those capital orders yet…

I’ll leave the other two choices for the day :slight_smile:

Do you know how many have nominated now? Hope it starts soon…

Cheers

Not the “New Game”…I don’t even see a new game published as filling, might take a while… I mean Keith’s Arthedain Game 5…

Oh - I’m not in that one as yet. But yes there is a new game filling. There are two of us apparently, enough to start a fight that our children will have to finish. And on that note, apart from Ditto I have the most children :slight_smile:
