Game 225 - War Begins

Whatever Citadel you choose to hide in will be burned out and those who flee from the flames will be cut down on thier way out the door.

The first blow comes in the East. Where will the second land? The White Wizard is of no threat to us. His pitiful mercenaries are no match for the eager warriors of Mordor.

Damn, that`s torn it.

My duty is to keep you busy…
The whole Rhen Easterlings, Long Rider amd Dog Lord nations have been so far able to take me just a town and a village ( that has been already taken back).
The same can’t be said about the helpless RE that have lost a town, 3 villages and a camp…

“I’m dancing” (Mohammed Alì vs Foreman): you are outnumbering me, but I’ll keep running around you and you’ll never catch me!!

Shrug Not much good the rest of your pop centers will do you when we burn your capital to the ground. Let’s see how much dancing you do then.

Disco sucks… and Shrel-Kain will burn.

Tic, toc… the clock for Shrel-Kain’s fall continues, unabated…

The fall of Shrel-kain will not make a difference in this war. The Free are too strong, with no opposition West of the Anduin, for long…

…To the Dog Lord and the minions of Sauron!!

Shrel Kain is now no more than rubble and the newly arrived “defending” army no more than a joke. BULRAKUR survives to fight another day, with THORIN the Stumpy next on his hitlist at 4017. Freeps your days are numbered in Rhun, why bother spending resources on defending it?

DENDRA the Victorious

THAT’S INCREDIBLE!!!

The Dragon’s Lord has won a battle, people can’t believe it and rumours about a corrupted Silvan army runs through Mirkwood…

Mt.Gundabad’s army has been easily defeted from the proud Woodmen and the mighty Dunadan Rangers: the north-west of Mirkwood is now free form enemies, the Wk has never been and never will be a problem anymore.

And neither will the Northmen… Snicker

Aren`t we back to counting the fabled chickens again…?

Bragolmaite certainly had a rough week. He got laughed at by his own troops for refusing my personal challenge (it was just a game o’ Chess!), then he lost all his men in combat afterwhich he lay with grievous wounds watching his beloved town fall down all around him. Then he died. The Corsairs would have us believe he was “ruthlessly assassinated in his sick bed” but we all know that’s just a wild rumor to drill fear and keep the “free” people in check! Hold fast, ye Unfree People! Your liberation draws near!

Obviously our dreaded Scurvy Bomb has effected the Corsairs fleet much more than expected. They still have yet to find a target.

Poor Bragolmaite, he was last seen leaving town with several large men in suits and broken noses. Rumor had it both of them were named Tony. They may have mentioned something about fitting him for cement shoes.

Ohh yeah, nice guards at Minas Morgul by the way. Wonder who will be next.

For
Ji Indur

Shoglic, the ability of Ji Indur has been impressive. But I have seen firsthand the training of young Noldo agents and their stealth surpasses anything I know the Nazgul are capable of. Master Elrond himself is greatly impressed with them and their progress has been stunning. Soon enough they will be causing havok amid the armies and towns of Sauron’s slaves.

Regarding our agent’s guard duties: Let any of your other agents attempt to assassinate or kidnap and we’ll see how well they get past Free guards. Work on the fringes stealing gold and targeting the likes of careless Bragolmaite, those are the only targets safe for you.

Blah… elven agent training also includes cowering in the shadows and wetting yourself. Your puny agents couldn’t stab their way out of a wet paper bag.

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

You of orc-kind are ugly enough, so put the paper bag over your head and we’ll see what an Elven blade can do to it. Or perhaps the slaves of Sauron can not afford even paper bags, now that the Market is exactly where the Free want it. Barad Perras falls into Free control this turn, further strengthening our grip upon Ithilien. You can not hope to stem the tide with Ji Indur and a few hundred orc infantry.

Concerning the skill of our agents: we will compensate with RINGS.

– Gildring

Funny, we got one, one was in the water, and well, the third… Snicker

  • Ben
    Dark Lts.

You praise the skills of Master Indur as you should, elf. Consider though, that perhaps it was not our leader but one of his chosen that has made these attempts. Or perhaps they bide thier time and await the day of vengeance. An assassins blade is best wielded with patience not recklessness. You will find this out one day, but by then it will be too late for you to stop us. The glory of Gondor has long faded. Return to the West while we still let you!

Shoglic

I wish the super-duper Corsairs would come out of hiding and post something here . . . then we could taunt him to his face!!
