Game 3 starts

QUOTE=Dr. JosephOuch! Now THAT hurt!

*Oh now don’t encourage him. He’s a very naughty boy. You know he’s a naughty boy, I know he’s a naughty boy, hell he may look silly but he probably even knows he’s a naughty boy. And there’s only one way to deal with naughty boys, grab them by the ear and slap them til ought but the ear remains…

Thanks… hopefully this coming turn will give you the seasons greatings you deserve for coming up with so many incomprehensible mutterings…

You aren’t related to Frank by any chance :smiley: ?

*I only know one Frank but he had a silent “W” in his name, we must be thinking of different fellas :slight_smile: I’m not incomprehensible, I’m just good at spelling (that might be what’s confusing you :slight_smile: You can have a great time, and you can have season’s greetings, but you can’t really have seasons greatings. I must have been a school ma’am in a previous life. Mmmmm I like the uniform…

Winsten wun toof (exceeding the DS numerical system by one… and also on the tooth count, but got the spelling more or less right :slight_smile:

Nazgirls? I guess that would be me. Does that mean I have the girlie bonus in this game?

*Anja that’s you isn’t it. Naughty girl indeed. I’ll get round to putting both you and Gerhard over my knee as you deserve in the next year :slight_smile: Pity he didn’t make it into this game. I’ve never known Harley to set standards on a game, but then again he can limbo under a snail :slight_smile:

Cheers and Beers (I’d say you probably feel like one after Gontran’s furious attempts :slight_smile:

Winsten wun toof aka Rob of the Baskervilles…

Wow. I’m guessing the Dork Lords and their Nazgirls had a very, very rough time this turn. Might be time for y’all to fire Sauron…

Little known facts of Middle Earth Volume I

In the beginning of Hoarmurath’s career, before his latter day fame and fortune, he played the part of “The chicken Lord”, a struggling young actor. In those early days he could not afford his future “ring of Power” and had to content himself with the lesser “Ring of Effervescence”. He appeared in such c-grade adult films as “Eat my drumstick” and “Plucked and Stuffed”. But it wasn’t until he swapped his trademark “ring of Effervescence” for the 5th ring of power that he landed his best known role in “Gone in 60 seconds”… a love story. His latest film sees him return to the short film genre, and involves lots of pointy implements, a few twists, and a surprise ending. Don’t miss “Mahrcared does Hoarmy” :slight_smile:

Still he’s in good company, Tormog had an eye poked out, and Gontran had everything poked out :slight_smile: 2 dead and one wounded. Fey turn me hearties…

Winsten Wun Toof - putting the jam in the DS doughnut

Ow… a couple of good characters gone :mad:

Ooops… how is it possible that in the army game… the DS have held off the attack around the back of mordor with no loss of pop centre… :smiley:

Ithil is hanging in the balance… what’s going to happen there this turn:eek:

Oh dear… Eot forgot to leave someone behind to lock the gates… looks like Dog party this turn :smiley:

Pretty poor guess… wait until your fellow FP report their losses :smiley:

*That’s the spirit. Reality is for panzies. Deny everything, and when it smacks you in the noggin’… deny it some more :slight_smile:

*Oh and commiserations to Tormog. I’ll make the dwarf send back the bit that he confiscated when Tormy was trying to stick him… :slight_smile:

*Nah only Happy-rat and Goon-train. Can’t see that anyone would miss 'em, Mahrcared certainly didn’t :slight_smile:

*Dunno, by abandoning the front door to the Gondors is my best guess? :slight_smile:

Ithil is hanging in the balance… what’s going to happen there this turn:eek:

*Yes you might say that (in a rather high pitched squeaky sort of way :slight_smile: Let’s hope that Ren is doing the same next turn… alas no little Rens :slight_smile:

Oh dear… Eot forgot to leave someone behind to lock the gates… looks like Dog party this turn :smiley:

*That’s spelt dog pate… (can’t get that useless Fronch symbol on there. You know, liver paste…:slight_smile:

*Gotta go and plan some more chaos and suffering for you lot.

Hi Robster,
I’m sooo sorry not to be a part of this DS-team.

Hey, you want to put us over your knees ?

Baby, maybe you’ve seen the one or other King Kong-movie to often or your bananas were infected with some dangerous DNA-programming viruses.

Reason two would explain a lot !

Have Fun !

A new warlord has risen in the East, leading the Variags to supremacy over the other Easterling tribes. The previous king was a weakling - I slew the old fool in single combat and left his body to rot on the battlefield.

*Certainly didn’t do Mrs Kong a great deal of good did it… :slight_smile:

Another FP icon perilously close to my homeland. I can guess, but I’m actually hoping I’m wrong, after so many previous requests have been ignored from there. Has someone determined which team I’m joining, or are they determined I join it?

*No Brad, we have not determined which side you will join, but as I have previously said, we will not be wandering further west and wasting another 2 turns to get at the WK. Our armies will march straight there. We are aligned nations, we have a war to fight. We will not enter your populations, but our needs are more pressing. I am not into subterfuge, and we have just the right amount of enemies to fight (ie we’re in a good position without annihilating them - so we don’t need to pick extra fights at this point). So whether you take this assurance and rely on your neutrality, or feel that it is better declared so at least you can be sure of where you are is up to you. But yes, we will continue to come to grips with the Wk’s realm by the shortest routes. That means that two nations will be surfing up the clear hexes outside your realm. That will continue until he has gone to pet’s paradise…

Cheers

Winsten Wun toof.

And if you overran Arfy with 100 men out posting camps? A polite heads up is expected once communication has been established. It’s like making the drive home drunk - no harm done this time, stupid regardless.

*Brad I got the copy of your message but can’t find it here on the forum so here’s the reply to your questions around overrunning unhappy campers.

*I’ll refer to our original thread. The freep have to attack the WK. There are hexes behind you for that kind of camp placement. If you run around out front then you are going to run into Freep armies. If you place them with emmies on the other hand you will be fine.

*you are not freep, so smart play dictates that we wont make you party to our plans. There are great advantages to playing the Rhudaur, you are in the heart of things and can have an extremely entertaining game. There are also disadvantages to playing the Rhudaur - you’re in the centre of things and can find life uncomfortable as you find yourself between two enemies trying to get to grips with each other. If the constraints are difficult, then you need to get yourself into the game and then we can all factor you into our plans.

*Hope that helps. I’m in a ‘no mans land’ dealing with you because our first concern has to be attacking the enemy, and I can’t give you any detail on that, and I can’t stop it, or make it less (even if the players involved were to agree - it would be a bad idea to tie one hand behind your back because you victory is never assured, and going at something half hearted is always a good way to lose).

*My advice, post camps behind, you, use emmies in front, and think about entering the game some time soon if the constraints are too difficult. To be honest, your placement of camps out front of your position only benefits a DS declaration anyway, so … Enjoy your game…

*Good luck
