Game 95

General
#21

Say what you will, Herman, the battle at Penmorva was a dark servant victory. 256 LC, 2630 HI, 234 LI, 127 AR, 383 MA frozen solid by Lomaw, along with those disgusting rat-faced hobbits creatures. Little terrorists. I am glad Murazor was willing to intervene, but it’s too little, too late. My compliments on a game well played.

Earnil has a bit much at Cameth Brin-- 269 HC, 135 LC, 3547 HI, 135 LI, 122 AR, 872 MA, minus whatever you lost flattening the remnants of Thuin Boid and Marendil’s 200 HI. Cough. I expected a big army, but not… quite… that… much. What did you do, strip Tharbad of every able-bodied man, woman, and child? (Not to mention whatever Rogrog is facing this turn). Can’t we all just get along? I don’t suppose it too late to talk about peaceful coexistance?

A true man of quality would be gracious and extend the hand of friendship and peace. Leave now and we won’t hinder your departure.

Hoarmurath, advisor to the late Arfahinl of Rhudaur. Memorial services to be held at Barad Dur, 11 PM sharp on the 14th of January. Please send gold in lieu of flowers.

A Blood Bath in Penmorva but thanks to the Witch-King still flies the flag of the Rhudaur (Penmorva is running a special on Frozen Buck Hill Hobbits on a stick) While I’m out raising hell east of the mountains and being a general pain in the butt

I’d like to take this time to say GOOD GAME ALL!

I’ll have to chaulk this one up as a learning experience

Regarding the Cardolani armies at Cameth Brin and facing WK army at 1708. I think we will win both battles. Pelendur is well aware of the numbers you have at 1708 and He thinks he can pull a victory out there. BUt our generals tend to be optimistic!

Rhudaur presence in Eriador may be dwindling but we still have to kick Er Murazor out of Angmar and we still have alot of work to do. I honor our enemy for putting on a good fight but the big mistake (in my humble view) was the Rhudaurian army crossing the mountain path. You may have hurt the Free in that area but you doomed Eriador to the Free. This fight could have still been going on and lasted many more turns. But alas its turn 9 and Rhuadar may be done in Eriador. Leaving the WK to face the might of the Dunedain in the north. But I must say the move was different and I liked the concept, next time just make sure you have enough at home to fend off the horde from Cardolan.

Nevertheless, if our Rhuadar opponent is done, I strongly advise a quick return to Middle Earth! Keep at it my adversary, and don’t get offended when others advise you.

With regards to the southern front, how long does it take to get armies from 3028 to 3024…a long damn time!!! It usually takes me two turn, its taking you guys 4. Try order number 180 it may aid in the movement process! . Get coordinated fast or we are gonna have your rear end for lunch.

Thats right boys, GONDOR is alive. And the big wyrms won’t save you forever, we can recruit them as well!

Over all, it is continuing to be a very fun game and I look forward to another 10 turns. The Free still have our backs against the wall but there is always hope!

#24

The only problem once you crush one of your enemies is that they then have to leave. I was hopeing thet Rhu had picked up some property in Mordor (I hear it is going cheap, great developement potential) to continue the fight. Free hire in one of the passes would have been sweet for you guys. Good luck in the next game if you are indeed kaput in this one.

#25

Do not be concerned about Rhuadar…we will know very soon if he is still in or not. Thats one of the uses of emissaries!

Free emmy “Hey paul is Arfanhil or Broggha still around?”

“Naw John” Paul (former citizen of Rhuadar" they done flew the coup"

or

“Yep, they moved down south some but they still around”

#26

It seems the Duns have misplaced an agent, to go along with their misplaced allegiance to the Free-loader Peoples.

Don’t worry, my boys found him. Abizaid’s troubles will soon be over. He’ll shall be granted mercy as soon as he repents his crimes against our Dark Lord.

, while LR and Dark Lieu continue to dance all over
Northman’s map. This is fun , freep ! Good to see you putting
a good fight instead of that whiny stuff from last turn.

Big Ed Khamul [/b][/QUOTE]

Northmen feeling good. We will be brought home(if there is one one) on shields. Against large odds we have given as good as gotten. Lr,Blind sorc.,Drk.Lt. and oh did I forget the cowardly easterling all came for me. Maybe if your guys weren’t having fun they would become competant. And who did you fight, the Nm and 1 eoth. army., and small sinda force. wow and you consider that fun. And with all that the dragon lord is needed to help. I would have like to intercept those dispatches.
To: Khamul
Please send help stop Our troops having to much fun stop
NM almost mounting a defense stop
Bld. Sorc. , Dk.LT LR , Easterl. not enough to take out pitiful NM stop
Please Khamul send reinforcements stop
It’s starting to get embarrassing for us stop
Yours imcompetently,
Uvatha,Ovatha,Akharahil,Urzahil

Whining hell I’m enjoying this. As I slowly sink into the morass I’ll try to take a few you with me.

Actually, Duran just figured moving to your MT was the best possible way to avoid the mass of elves nearby :slight_smile:

Big Ed Khamul

#29

I’m glad I’m not the only one avoiding the elves. wait a second you got a elf working for you, what’s all this elf talk. I smell a Big Velvetta lie here. To bad my one mission in life is to screw up easterling are I’ld come for you or I would have defended esgaroth. 3 easterling towns and a 4th at my leisure. That leaves one more town of his Hmmm.

Our objective has been to fumble forward as much as possible in a veiled attempt to reach Oz.

But at least someone finally made it there… :slight_smile:

See ya,
Ken

We have a FK enemy with a sense of humor. He seems to be the grand coordinator and I was totally fooled on your movements from 3028 to 3024. I must admit, I’m at a lost, I can’t compete :slight_smile:

My only hope is that you guys get serious and lose the humor and get determined. Once that happens you become predictable and I can counter your every move. But from what I am seeing, its over. Too much funny stuff going on. I can’t compete!

#32

“My only hope is that you guys get serious and lose the humor and get determined.”

Never! Don’t you know humor and evil do well together? Just look at our names (We did, as we sat around the table sipping coffee with marshmellows up at the angmar ski resort and casino a few years back).

Nazgul #1: I…Want to be the Witch King!
Nazgul #10: What??? That’s a girly name! Look at the Pansy, let go burn her! Watch out for the Witchy-Poo!
Nazgul #1: I WANT TO BE THE WITCH KING
Sauron: I kind of like it.
Everyone: Oh yes… well then… Witch King it is.
Nazgul #2: Whatz doozz ya think me name be then?
Nazgul #3: Flamer!
Nazgul #8: The Gay Guy.
Nazgul #4: I think that name is already taken actually.
Nazgul #8: Oh ok, how about smelly.
Nazgul #4: I think that is a dwarf’s name too.
Nazgul #8: Dopey?
Nazgul #2: I think that is Nazgul #9’s name. I’llz just go with the longgggg rider.
Nazgul #9: Hey now! I am not going to be dopey, I’ll be the long rider and YOU be dopey!
Nazgul #6: But what if I want to be Dopey?
Nazgul #2 sips his latte, pinky finger raised but obviously quivering about. I like Long Rider or Lizard Slong Lord.
(Sauron, now obviously getting irritated at the minor quibbing, the lidless eye starts to wish it had a lid or tear ducts).
Sauron: SHUT UP! Ok, #2 The Lizard Thing is just retarted. I’m giving your house to the servants (sauron winks… well if he could… to the guy pooring his expresso) and your summer home to #7. But to make up for it, I’ll give you a nice name that should make everyone happy. You will be the dragon lord. There, now your a flamer, a lizard, and … long.
Nazgul #10: Um, like that was a totally lame joke.
Sauron turns to him and stares (again wishing he had lids so he could better make the point).
Nazgul #3: Rough!
Nazgul #4: What?
Nazgul #3: Rough!
Nazgul #4: Huh?
Nazgul #3: ROUGH!
Sauron: Yes, ruff… hmm. I like it, you can be the dog lord then, lets move on.
Nazgul #3: Wait, I was saying I had it rough! could I please be The Great Warg Master P?
The table turns to him, all stopping their sipping of high quality drink.
Nazgul #4: I want to be the cloud lord.
Sauron (obviously shivering): Yes… What ever you’d like Ji… Servants, get him some more… whatever he wants.
Nazgul #8 to #4: Want some of mine?
Nazgul #6: Stop sucking up to him!.. Mr. Cloud Lord would you like some cake?
The servant: I’ll give you some artifacts… No reason, just will.
Cloud Lord: I will take them all… Thank you very much.
Everyone, including sauron: Of course master, whatever you wish, oh great one.
Nazgul #5: My turn right?
Nazgul #10: Your king of the obvious!
Nazgul #5: I like The great and powerful Oz. I see all! (he turns and quickly looks down #7 blouse. She spots the action however, then turns to Ji and whispers “no more candy shop unless you fix this constant invasion of privacy”). With a nod from Ji, out of the shadows twin dagger fly and strike #5 in the eyes, blinding him!
Nazgul #5: I’m blind, I’m Blind!!!
Sauron: Ok your blind then… Good name… Lets move on.
Nazgul #6: Um… Could we talk about my location?
Sauron: Sure, what’s up, you don’t like sitting next to the…dragon lord?
Nazgul #6: No, no, I’m talking about my castle! I’m the friggen nose. I want someplace secure, between two or more other people so I can be safe. Dol Guldor is just too exposed.
Dragon Lord: Oh… I like exposure.
#6: ick. Get away (pushing the Dragon lords hand off his knee).
Dragon Lord: Youz are way…WAy to cold. Icy Cold.
Sauron: I like it. #6 your the Ice Master P. And you can switch homes with the dragon lords new one. Dragon lord where did you place it?
Dragon lord: Next to the dog and smoky.
Dog Lord: Hey, I wanted to be Master P.
Sauron: fine, fine, #6. you’ll be just the Ice King then.
Nazgul #7 (whispering, so next to no one can hear her). I would like to be call the rough rider princess.
Sauron: What did she say?
Nazgul #10: She said she want to be called Slut. Cause she away is putting out.
#7 turns, obviously pissed and glances at the cloud lord. Seconds later #10 is no more. Not even he knows what happen to him.
Sauron: Wow she’s got a temper.
Witch king: Revengeful even.
Sauron: Ok, she can be the quiet revenger.
Witch King: I think that would be Avenger sir.
Sauron: Yes avenger. that’s it. Re and A and the numbers 3 and 5…
Witch King: Sir, I think only a few will get that reference.
Sauron turns to him looking to change the subject… Nice ski resort you have here…
Nazgul #8: Cloud lord, might I offer to you to name me oh glorious master and savior?
Cloud Lord: I say you will be the Fire King, since you alway feel the heat of gondor.
Fire King: Thank you glorious one, you are both wise and powerful.
Cloud Lord: Yes, that’s fine, now go take a shower.
Nazgul #9: Can I PLEASE be the Long Rider.
The Dragon Lord: Oh yes, long rider.
Sauron: Fine, do what you’d like, your not part of the main team anyway, always running off on your own…
Sauron turns to his servant. I want you to have everything, my home, the money, the toys, I want you to have it all, these fouls would throw it away on cheap beer and whores…Well except the Dragon lord… and send a note to the elves, that we’re not going to pay the taxes and they can come in and take Dol Guldor back anytime…

DL’s: “But sir, that will leave the dragon lord to be stationed in the rear.”

Sauron: “Well yes, right where he likes it. But let him get hammered first, then it can be his turn to be in the rear”.

Very big post, quite impressed!. (Very funny!)

#34

Now that was an interesting turn.

Oz is finally dark. It has taken 10 turns! The Ithil pass is secure.

Rhudaur Lives!!!

People dying left and right.

However, we would like to request Grasty be returned. It’s just not right, him being a CL character and all. We’ll give you a piece of cake, or all the bronze in Oz if you return him, and we promise to not kill the guy carrying the ring of wind for like 2-3 turns at least. :slight_smile:

Interesting turn.

See ya,
Ken

I had no idea that when you wrote this you meant that you were just going to let him go…

But I appreciate it nonetheless, thanks!

#36

I got three others this turn from the EO and Arthedain, but I had to throw the Dun agent back in; he wasn’t big enough to keep.

Darrell, it’s you again! Didn’t we spank you enough in game 71? Did you really mean to join another sinking ship?

Greetings all I would like to take this time to thank everyone who attended the highly successful farewell bar-b-que at Cameth Brin (2008) I personnally like to thank the Cardolin for his donation of 4,000 plus troops for our cook (Aivnec) to perpare Great fun was had by all. Well almost all.

Bad habit of mine that I’m trying to break. :smiley:

Please, how can you boast about being able to recruit a dragon and having it put into your capital army in order to save yourself.

Take the luck that you had this time and be grateful! You probably didn’t even find it yourself. I can see it now.

WK player: Wow, there is a dragon at my pop center. I sure can use it. THen again, my buddy Rhuadar is getting his ass handed to him. He needs it more.

WK player to Rhuadar player: Hey buddy, why don’t you send this character to this hex and hope Aivnec is still there. If he is respond this way. Make sure you have an army in this area that has this ranked commander in it.

Rhuadar player: Man, I’m great in this Middle Earth game. I should boast about it to all so they can know how really great a player I am.

When you are able to defeat me in other ways I will be the first to say “Damn, that boy is good!” But right now I’m saying “Damn, that boy is lucky”

#40

Yes I can Gloat because when the Rhudaur apparently goes DS on turn 2 he shouldn’t make it to turn 10 and still be somewhat of a pain in his homeland I should have been ousted by turn 6 or 7 but yet I’m still around now lets see I’ve fought the Woodman, Sinda, Noldo, Arthedain, Cardolian and the Dwarves how many different nations have you fought hmmm lets see what the WitchKing and myself
