“No more Heroes” by the Stranglers aka FP G5

Read it and weep, Darkies

Yes, thank goodness you’ve finally managed to kill off my troops so I don’t have to worry about paying them any more.

I have to say, no weeping here, your second wave isn’t very scary, sorry :smiley:

Rox and co.,

I must say, if you spend all your time writing horrid poetry, you must not be paying enough attention to the game.

First, let me thank you for graciously allowing the IK to keep his capital. Hah! I was hoping SG would take a chance, but no such luck. Oh well, I guess he felt a CL village was more in his league. So much for “DS you are in trouble boyz… just ask the IK…” :slight_smile:

I must say I like the line up of 4 FP army icons in a nice neat little row in front of the gates. If nothing else, you guys have a sense of style. Going to cram them right down our throat? Give it your best shot… Feagwath’s looking forward to kicking some Northmen butt this turn. Oh and since the FP’s seem to have a problem with this–DON’T FORGET TO REFUSE CHALLENGE. I don’t want you to make it easy for us. :slight_smile:

Now Rox, seriously, someone on your side must be clumsy. You see, back in Nov. you said you had the Ring of Curufin. But this turn (6) I find it’s sitting around where it was the last time I looked for it (turn 3). How can that be? Did someone drop it? Surely you wouldn’t lie to influence the neutrals? Oh well, no need to worry–we’ll see to it that it’s safe.

Let’s see, what else. Oh yes, you guys did win a few battles this turn. Nice job there. You also beat up the WK a bit, but then he pretty much sealed his fate by getting into an argument with Rhudaur, so no surprise there.

Well, I could go on, but don’t want to ruin any surprises. We are REALLY looking forward to the next 2 or 3 turns.

Greeting to the remaining neutrals

We are now entering a very exiting time, for all nations at the NW of Middle Earth, has chosen our path.
Despite the fact Rhudaur had first elected the other way, but again Orcs have a big problem in telling friend from foe and apparently ate the Rhudaur ambassador that was thought to bring home the magic item for Rhudaurs pursuit against us.
Murazor and WK have now got its forfeit, but a bit sad that Murazor have chosen exile and not even fight to the bitter end for some glory, and he was to be the First of Nazguls, I do respect “the new” Murazor a great deal more, just to hand in order on that basis.

The tide of war and the have now turned to your part of the world so I urge you to come and join the right side.

My friend, the great leader of the Southern Gondor has now penetrated Mordor not by the easy way of the passes, but the route through Durthang. The lands of the inner Mordor is not at risk, and Dark Lieutenants Barad Dur defences can not muddle through the remains of the SG forces.
I have never understood a Cloud lord, not sending Kadida directly to the goldmines as he makes more damage to a mountain with a shovel than to FP magnificent commanders.

As Urzahil correctly have noticed, we FP think that the 215 order is for whips, DS have to learn that FP does run a military organization and that does not leave time for refuse as it slows downs the progress.

Somehow I think we have made a tactical error in kicking out “the old” WK as he actually did a good profession in the diplomatic way for the FP, now we are left with the hard work ourselves.

For Tarondor

Sorry, can’t see that SG army doing any serious damage. In fact, despite the FP amazing luck in never once failing to get their army move first, they are still but a flickering shadow of a threat. Mordor remains strong.

You’re right, though, should’ve sent Kadida to the goldmines. Then again, no real surprise as he’s my weakest agent. Camlin’s not looking very healthy, after all :wink:

“not even a flickering shadow of a threat” ? Well thats cos we walk in the light and cast no shadow

Now if you close your eyes and LISTEN you will hear the tramp tramp tramp of well shod feet.

Open them up again next turn and you will see the troops alright - all over Mordor

I got to hand it to you though, for a team who lost around 20,000 troops this turn you sure are playing it cool

How is the CL kill count coming along? Getting close to double figures yet?

Yep, I hear the well shod tramp of marching feet. I am confident none of them will make it in to Mordor, except that annoying SG army that’s already there :slight_smile:

Plenty of time to up the kill-count as you seem so scared to actually bring the Ring of Impersonation to Mordor :stuck_out_tongue:

Rox,

Still waiting for an explanation on the Ring of Curufin (and I’m sure the neutrals are too).

I’m surprised you didn’t make something up about the Ring of Wind* while you were at it.

Skarp

  • On a side note, probably not a good idea to make fun of the CL’s kill rate from now on… :slight_smile:

I just realised why the Freeps seem to be doing quite well…judging from the stuff they post, they clearly have a lot of time on their hands…
Perhaps we should take a similar attitude to the Real World?

The Quest Meister

Aha !

You concede that we are doing “Quite Well” - thats nice of you, and alot more than you have conceded already…

Collowesta? Curufin? Collar of Might ? Oh yeah its the last of these that we have (or do we?). FP give misinformation out to the DS y’know Skarpy :slight_smile:

CL: I challenge you to try and kill my characters. They will all be at 0604 in 2 turns time - see you there if you dare

Cheers
Mike

Why would I travel across the world to try and kill your characters?

Plenty of killing fields right around Mordor :wink:

We’d be pretty daft if we hadn’t known where the Ring of Curufin was so I don’t believe it was to mislead us :slight_smile:
