Game 225 - War Begins

And soon NG as well…

NGondor will outlive the DkLts.

Master Elrond

Just like Barad Dur will fall before Minas Tirith, right? Right?

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

I never said that! Gildring did… that dumb elf.

But YOU are saying Durthang “falls” this week? How much will it cost you, how much will it cost what`s left of Gondor? You think those paltry riders and treacherous uruks from Angrenost can stop us?

Bulrakur the Blunt

Whats an "ncody" anyway? Sounds kinda Orcish, but aint in my dictionary...Is it Dwarvish for "Elronds Body Servant"??? He won`t be needing that soon, wot with him being all incorporeal like his former “buddy” Gildring, soon. So soon…

Dendra the Deft

NCody, stands for, “he who takes Durthang.” At least that’s what it stands for this turn.

Once again, you’ve made predictions like that before and they fell FLAT. Try again…

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

Well, I’m not exactly going out on a limb by predicting that the IK capital falls this turn. You can tell we have more than a couple characters there. And I doubt very much the IK has four commanders in that seed army.

Our Woodmen scouts are getting quite skilled…

Just like the Northmen emmissaries, Corsair navy, and North Gondor defenses, right? Right?

Haha! That you doubt at least that minor point-- the Woodmen scouts are proficient-- demonstrates your delusion.

As for Northern Gondor, he’s had time to replace characters and gain distant Major Towns. I’m willing to stake the entire game on the fact that you won’t be taking him out soon. If you do, you win. I’ll quit when NGondor is removed from play.

North Gondor??? Dont you mean New Mordor? Are there any former North Gondor characters still in play? I sure as hell havent seen any armies in a while…what DID happen to them?

Dendra the Dope

Hey, what’s with the party at 3218? If I’d know you were coming I’d a’ baked a cake!

You guys must really not like me. Maybe it has been all those dragons the last few turns… heh!

Khamul II

Yeah, and we know you guys have Lamthanc there. Hopefully we’ll knock you down to under 100 troops, but don’t think that’s the end of the party. We have a thirst for this new drink: Orcsblood.

Master Elrond

Murmur, regarding NGondor: ask Ji Indur.

Just wanted you to know we have decorated Durthang according to the latest elven fashions-- pastels and pokka-dots-- before you will be allowed to take it back.

Master Elrond

That’s fine, we won’t let you take back Linhir, or Pelargir, or Minas Tirith, or Minas Arthor…

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

And we’ll continue taking your capitals…

You haven’t held onto anything yet that we haven’t taken back. And we’ll keep on knocking out nations, North Gondor is going down.

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

Not likely. I want to see how you deal with the surprises we have prepared for you.

And just like the QA this turn, another DS is going to be hit over the hit with a FP shovel next turn. And it’s not going to be pretty.
