Game 5 Bye Bye Morannon

DS creepy crawlies

2 Dragons are not enough to stop us. Especially when you use them so badly.

Morannon falls this turn. So put your heads between your legs and kiss your tails goodbye…

Does it?

Oh well, never mind, eh?

Must say–Dog Lord cap was nicely played. Will be interesting to see how well you covered the margins.

Btw, we still have a few dragons from the six pack we bought, so don’t count us out yet. :slight_smile:

Skarp

Yep, very well played on keeping the Eothraim cavalry back. Excellent assault on Mordor all round, really.

Fellas ! (I mean DS types)

You have been kinda complimentary for 4 posts in a row. Wassup? I feel I am being lulled into a false sense of security :slight_smile:

Cheers

Um, no, you’re not being lulled into a false sense of security. We really think you kick butt like no one else.

Kind regards,

Skarp

Thanks for that Skarp, I know the rest of the team will be pleased to hear that.

How did the Witchking take to having Carn Dum burnt down around him.

We did give those poor misguided fools that lived there a chance (Two actually) to come out alive…

Now all that left of him west of the mountains is that bloody camp - that just refuses to be lured away.

Oh well looks like another bonfire is due.

Actually, the last message was intended to be a bit sarcastic. But seriously, you guys have shown how ultra-efficient FP recruiting, movement, and overall coordination can be darn near unstoppable. The WK/Rhudaur debacle certainly didn’t help, but I would imagine we would be hard pressed in any event.

On a side note, any interest in a rematch once this one’s over? I’m not suggesting that will be soon and not sure whether everyone on our team will be interested, but thought I’d throw it out for discussion.

Skarp

Yes, I hadn’t played for several years, since the days of awful communications and hand-written post-cards and I admit I thought the FP wouldn’t have a chance in this day and age of team play and communication.

Thanks to all of you for showing me how wrong I was :slight_smile:

Same here! about 8 years since last played, and would gladly join a re-match after this ones over!

It has/is an excellent game were playing and I now that I’m on an excellent team that works well togther.

Oooh,

Does that mean the DS are leaning towards an early declaration of defeat…

At least wait until the big one hits :slight_smile:

Not at all. We still plan to win or else go kicking and screaming. Just throwing out a future possibility as we are enjoying the game and the opposition.

One part of me thinks its a shame your WiK blew his chance for a great game in the NW… another part of me thinks not.

Obviously, with an experienced Rhu going DS early through good diploacy the game in the NW would have been very different.

Some of the troops that have made it to Morannon may well have been diverted across the mountains if the Rhu plan had done the damage as he was hoping.

It’s amazing how many neutrals join the other side after being spurned in some way… some people just don’t understand that winning the neutrals goes a long way to winning the game… not having a go at you guys… also shame QAv had to drop… since we roleplay together it would have been nice to taunt him some more…

Thanks for the good words and it is nice to see characters as Urzahil and Hoarmûrath trying it out as commanders, we might even see Ji Indur as one when Cloud Lord tries to safe his capitol for an attack from the SOUTH yes it is right south 3000 HC st/st will do the trick.

Oh, I don’t think I’ll bother trying to save it against that big an army :slight_smile:

New Corsair player on the go. ex-Eothraim from ME17 Mike B., in particular. No grudges mate. Lets see if I can keep the Corsairs afloat eh?

Corsairs could do with hearing from the Gondors, Harad and QA please. Any chance of slining a message my way guys? Cheers for those that have gotten in touch.
