Game 2

I like Brad’s answer so much better than the Dragon’s…more realism, less bravado. Pay the blood price for Dol Goldur? So be it…

To Angamaite from the mighty Haruth Ramam

Your armies have been brutalized and rendered ineffective. The losses to my military will be replaced very quickly. All ready new troops are pouring from my towns to bring the battle to your settlements.

It does not have to be. You can still choose to see the truth of our Lord Sauron and join the fight against those treacherous elves and their lackeys.

Of course you will be required to surrender some of your MTs as a tribute to Lord Sauron. But you will be allowed to keep enough to run a campaigning against the FP and to keep all your plunder.

Truth is bitter but better to embrace it than to perish in dragon flames.

Masa, strong words from a guy that has yet to win a battle. Perhaps you should have talked surrender before half your nation was captured, your navy was gone, etc, etc…

Just for you Brad,

The die is now cast
What number will it reveal
Next turn will tell all

Bah. Three of you together failed to kill or even really cripple my nation. How well will the fight go for him now that his “allies” are quitting the theater.

Sinda fleet has no real strength left and i can hear Celdrahil´s deranged raving to my capital as he wanders in the hills with his last depraved followers. (He drools too, beware of splatter)

On the other hand i´m DS now and have access to Dragons. Beautiful, Beautiful Dragons!

My goodness! We are certainly running low on starting troops! I’ve never figured out what these 400 series orders are for…

Leaving the theater? Why would we do that? In all honesty, we are more in danger of running out of theaters to be involved in.

Running out of theaters? Not possible. IMAX is the way to go.

John the Blind

Agreed. But there are just so many times I can see the Hobbit before burning out!

Just one more movie, though I suppose the Silmarrilion has enough background info for multitudinous Middle Earth movies still…

If Peter Jackson can make 3 movies out of The Hobbit, there must be material for a dozen in the Silmarillion. It could be like the James Bond franchise, a new Silmarillion movie out of each chapter every few years…

Groovy. I’m ready for the Turin movie, its all full of blood, curses, incest and tragedy. Beren and Luthien make a distant runner up. the big problems with most of the SIlmarillion topics will likely be that a)therer are no Hobbits and b) there are (almost) no happy endings

I am SO tired of hobbits…give me incestuous cursing elves any day.

Din Ohtar sleeps with the fishes…but we’ll keep the shiny bits, thanks!

Easterling Man, we’re sorry, we take it back! Thats one big ugly knot of cav you got headed north. …

ANd life goes on, the grind continues, and the market REALLY sucks. I dont like it as the Woodmen, I cant imagine the DS find this to be a quality selling environment…perhaps that has something to do with Rogrog finally looking for a fight, lol!

Just me talking to myself again…

Looks like the entire Dragon Lord nation has joined Din Ohtar. Celdrahil also thanks you for the new agent artifact. ANd the new village. And the new village for next turn, oh my…

Rhudaur is in full scale Meltdown, looks like the Witch King will join him soon.

Our Eo keeps dancing to the music, do you hear the beat? Or is that beat-down, as we are quickly running out of places to send our armies except Mordor…

Have at you!

Mike

Parry 4. Parry 6. Clever riposte!

Mordor? Really? That will be a trick…come get me…

Trick? Its not all that far to that dirty hole you live in. See you in a turn or two, ha!

The Grind contiues.

How are you liking this market, my DS foes? Its starting to look like the offensive you were pushing on the plains is running out of gas. Looks like defense everywhere else. How much longer will you drag on the slow pain? Nevermind, I know, its a long slog to the finish line, forgive me if it looks like our advantage (at least at the moment, ha!)

Is that why you guys are keeping the prices in the cellar? I thought it was just because you can’t count very high and 1’s work better for you.

Ok, you got me! Bear-folk have a hard time with numbers in general, but the 1’s we do understand. We’re still a bit confused by Mithril, but the rest of the market is getting down to our line of thinking. I’ve been told that if we knock out enough nations, even mithril goes to 1. Sorry, but this math is just too hard, I’m going to have to kill u now…

Contemplate or kill
the enemy is the one
Even the bear counts

Haiku are Pretty
But they cannot rescue you
Mister Bad Math comes
