Game 95 Turn 3

Been waiting on Herr Palmer to get us started, but it looks like we’re (the Free) going to have to kick this one off :slight_smile:

What’s up with you bridge-burners? Scared of Gondorian Fury? We’ll take back Ithil and continue pressing the Ice King this turn anyway…

Feel that Nutcracker yet Mr. Dragon Lord? Time to hide the pecans.

ANd what is it with Rhudaur and Cirdan? Is he strangely attracted to the bearded elf (I’d understand if he was a dwarf). Following me over the Misties with a huge army is somewhat extreme, dont you think?

Be seeing you soon.

Hugs and Kisses,

Mike Noldo

Ivansky,

 I'm back, just admiring the Mirkwood and rhovanion maps - all those various icons everywhere, looks like a Pollock painting !

 As for your nutcracker, I think you/ve spread yourselves a little thin to do any more than break the outer shell :)

 Meanwhile, the shell game continues courtesey of Celed and his toys - did he join Duran, Urgub, Wodur, or is he on one of your caps to challenge am unsuspecting Freepie ?!

 Finally, Eastie, what did we do to you to provoke this seemingly Free siding ? Never heard from you, but we have trinkets and what with us offing 2 Northman armies already, you could still go Dark and make Nickeoder's life a living hell...

Yeah I’m sure the easterling is a gooder. That’s why he is pounding on the Northmen armies.

Nice try but no cigar!

So what’s up with Celedhring? Has this turned into a game of “Where’s Waldo?” You better hope he aint with those armies, hate to see him get captured or killed (he may be evil, but he’s still a Noldo–gives me willies to think what those woodmen cousin-kissers would do to him if caught)

Lets see if Brian is reading the board :slight_smile:

Enjoy the various icons while you can Big head Khamule.
The funny looking eyeball icon icons are disappearing fast. Yep a few in Rhun but even 2 of those 3 will be mop up operations for us. And hey we have about 6 armies who have not fought. Are ya’ll out of armies already. One decent Ds army left and he’s surrounded.
Nm lost 1 army to be accurate,and it put a hurting on the entire IK army. I’ve replaced that entire force this turn alone. Has the IK. I think not. The sweet thing about your money situation I know you have to attack me and with summon storms I can refuse and move and not worry about tactics. Sweet. Barlin will be picking up 300 this turn.
Even with the easterling running interference for you we’ll catch LR yet. He saved you once will he save you again.

My master would like to thank Rhudaur for the donation of the village that we will take posession of next turn. It was most kind of him to send his armies in the other direction. I hope he will have sufficient forces to defend his capital next turn.
To go DS as Rhudaur did with absolutely no contact with us or replies to our Diplos was quite rude. My master will take great delight in teaching them some manners.

Nice ruse, but just because he likely failed his upgrade, thus not allowing him to pass through the “northman” army this turn, don’t get mad at us.

Do ya think we can’t read our own maps? (don’t answer that). It is pretty obvious he is going free.

I will say free, I am very impressed with your grudge team level corridination throughout, and aggressive strategy in the south.

It will be a very tough game for us.

See ya,
Ren the Embattled (Can’t we all just get along?)

Freepies,

   If Ohtar trolled and got himself some Ents, my nuts will indeed be cracked !!! If not, Woodmen will be in for some hurting,

and 'ol Ed will get some fresh air.

   I guess I'll have to wait and see in this reverse shell game :)

PS - Newts, please disregard the poor attempts the Freep have made to disguise the Easterlings obvious anti-Dark moves. Ren’s points are well made.

Guys,
I keep getting emails with various bits of game 95 news – and all with the Bugbear virus attached. I am not in this game nor do I want the virus :slight_smile:

Could you all please check your systems?
