No, Doggie was put thru the blender and pureed by the Free
Secret War Machine Society ! (AKA FSWMS, for those of you who like that sort of thing).
Our dobber was down, methinks we Dark were too happy to try and stomp on SG and let our guard down elsewhere. As out top hatted Dark Lieu and next governor of California have said :
“We’ll be back !”
Doggie Don
So Arthedain, what do you think will happen this turn?
Having consulted with the Oracle of Delphi, the Seer states:
“Arthedain Folk with icewater eyes,
Beware treason and avoid suprise.
Against the foe in solid array
Advance bravely into the fray.
The enemy recoils from the fight,
Your sword points in fury bite!”
As usual, the Oracle was correct but did not tell the whole story.
Yes, the oracle has a gift with only telling you what you want to hear (she’s the one that said I’d lead an offensive against the Arthedain… didn’t tell me I’d be doing it in order to defend my own realm!!!).
Anyhoo, I’d like to offer the Dark Lord’s sincerest sympathy for the untimely deaths’ of your valiant army commanders, and of course the 2400 heavy cavalry Regent The Franklin led. A more doomed expedition we have yet to see. How many warmachines went up that time?
Ribbing asside, you are indeed making this a very tough fight! Wish you didn’t find my village. I’ll have to return the favor sometime.
Now 2 DS capitals in 2 turns for the National Elf Service.
Who will be next I wonder. Thanks also to the late Ice King for all those nice mage artefacts. Will come in very handy for the second curse squad.
Come now, pointy ears, didn’t you and your kind realize yet that this world is not for you? Perhaps you need to be reminded of your weakness.
… wait for it…
Well now, that wasn’t very sporting. I invited that character to take in the sites and she travelled all the way from Mordor just to have you stick her like a pig. You’ll pay for that.
You’ll also pay for destroying my village. That was a brewery and resort.
But at least I can be comfortable knowing that many of your characters and armies are no longer with us. Speaking of which, I don’t suppose you would choose to withdraw your army from 1704. Just go home. Too much blood has been spilt here already (still remembering 6000 dead dwarves).
Esteemed WL: I’m sorry but Bartacus kept making lewd advances to my army commander. He has sworn an oath of chastity until Mt. Gram is destroyed. He will make up for lost time during the sack.
Well, if you don’t attack me at 1704 I won’t attack you. How does that mini-truce sound? Remember, the rules specifically allow enemies to reach agreements with each other.
Noble Arthedain… you know if it was up to me I’d let you go, but the lads have a temper, and they’ve been drinking all day.
One heck of a war up here so far. Almost a year of fighting and here we still sit.
What no comments from the Dark Sevants this turn?
Have we killed all your witty characters?
Surely at least the Witch King has some banter left.
Come now, meager elf, you are more than welcome to try Elrohir’s company’s luck up in Angmar. I doubt that it would find the reception as fitting as the one it receives now in Mordor. No matter. The dark nations remain strong, and the offing of a few characters here or there will do nothing to stop Sauron’s darkness from spreading over your fare lands.
Arthedain knows well my prowess. Soon you both shall learn to fear me anew…
Although Canute like we are sitting
as the tide of freep armies keep hitting
This brief moment of silence
precedes acts of violence
That show we’ve not thought of submitting
Ta Da!
What a relief you are still there - so the fun continues!
And finally I would like to apologise to the DS in advance for all their characters and armies we will kill this turn:D
JD: Put on your creative cap. I wish to commission a Hosanna of Triumph, when Mt. Gram falls. Make it good and I will send gold to your capital. Of course, you will have to tell me where your capital is. A minor detail that won’t stand in the way of your poetic art.
uh, Arthedain, hate to be a downer, but your “final offensive” has pretty much netted you with over ten thousand dead freeps, a few dead commanders, and 2 WK villages and a camp. Well done.
At this rate, i don’t think Gram will fall anytime soon…
How about we write a funeral dirge for the free?
Noble WK: You are really starting to frustrate me. Although, I guess, it could be considered a sign of progress that you are now forced to recruit naked MAA.
We felt that naked manish slave look was what we wanted to go for this season. Besides, your troops must be tired of fighting all these trolls.
You’ve played a hell of a game, Arthedain. Perhaps its time for you to be on the defensive for a while…
Do the free peoples wish to surrender yet?
OK, I will make you a deal. If you fend off the next wave I will go on the defensive and let you pitch awhile.
One more DS capital gone this turn and 3 more will go in the coming turn. How long can the Mordor Dark Servants hold out?
Please ask the Dark Lord to switch off the lights at barad Dur as he leaves.
The National Elf service.
