You’re welcome. I don’t think you take it any more personal (EDIT “personally”… sorry… don’t want to be guilty of anymore stupid typos) than I do. Though the “banging of my head” thing did sting a bit:(
Ah Yes . . . I think you were the Sinda plus one in that game possibly. The brave Harad that were kept in to the end to taste victory by several allies!
And because of those favours I promise that Din Oh will not kill a Cardolan character prior to turn three .
Lol, I was hoping people had forgotten that little “war of words”, fun while it lasted but he’s a strange guy for sure.
And I prefer to think that I caught the Eothraim army
As you can tell we are all in awe of your evasive movement tactics so far, though I would describe them as more “elusive”. Still, I’m not one to taunt clever opponents . . . and I think Din Oh is getting a bad press here, very much misunderstood methinks.
im in awe too.
i think my compass was made in mordor. i can hope the dwaves hold the production rights to assassin dagger blades. read you next turn.

What happened? The fat girl goes from threatening to bang my head against my own capital’s gates to… BURNING A FEW CAMPS? FYI, it looks like you’ll have a long road ahead through the pass to come and visit me. By that I mean by retaking Minas Ithil AND Osgiliath… BOTH of which will probably fall in the comming weeks! Don’t dispair though. I have infact been banging my head quite often lately… on the ground from falling over with laughter! I’m sure these “spells of giddiness” will worsen when I’m watching you ranks die en masse against walls that were once thier own.
And where did all the “mighty armies of the free” wander off to anyway? Oh, that’s right… they’re stuck on ships in the middle of nowhere, or were split up into nothingness.
Kudos on a great first turn in and around the pass though! I hope the strategy the Free has formed revolves around the loss of NG in few months.
Keep up the fire,

thanks for the support.we did a learn a few things last turn.
if the n gondor capitol army adds 500 hi,marches to defend 3024 from the ice king. if the ice king arrives and tries to capture the pop center, what do you think happens? wait for it… ice king costs go way, way down. so does his army commander. scratch 1 national military(aside from 100hi).
barad perras is very nice. thanks for all the kind words after you ran up the banner of n gondor. great view of the anduin river valley, my valley. your down to 2 pop centers after turn 2. must be the personal grooming of regents and kings that gets people so willing to join our side.
speaking of grooming and leadership, i give you, ren the unclean.threat 3124, with a captain, dennis? anybody, anybody? utter failure. welcome to 3024. the s gondor, n gondor combined militaries welcome you both, eagerly. guess what happens when the archers and lite infantry of mordor fight gondor cav in the plains. better bring up the blind sor and cloud lord foot troops to clean up your mess. guess what, i think 300 folks from barad perras just joined my ranks as hi.
welcome to that huge dragon lord army at 2617, and large dog lord army at 3116. it wouldn’t be spring time without you guys.
well, luck does indeed turn, and i’m certain today was a gondor day. maybe next turn will be your day( i am a fool, but i know the shoe will spend sometime on Saurons foot too, and i await the kick to my rear that comes with it). but, the results speak for themselves in gondor land. i’ll be spending today and tomorrow( nah, at least through the weekend) figuring how my results could have went better.
well I have nothing to brag on … my commanders can’t even post camps… but then again I dont’ need them… I need troops… lots of them…for soon I shall march to the war drum all of mordor and their ilk will tremble in fear… where the >>>> did that army come from… how’s he got THAT many troops already…what turn is this…oh geez…oh geez…
its been a week, and no word for the dark side. last week, it was the fat girl n gondor with the botched battle plan who was losing n gondor in a couple months. i was homeslice, bi+ching, whining and complaining with lost armies and a scattered battleplan. 1 turn later, silence. guys, its a game. if you dish it when the winds at your back, you gotta eat it when the wind is in your face. wheres the sniper mottos, quoting Tzu, the worm does turn that way? its early, and its 100% certain that everything changes. i’m certain unpleasant things await n gondor next turn, but i’ll be waiting with a sense of humor, and maybe even a plan.
Yes, I too stand in amazment at how the swiftly things can change. Never fear though, I shall fight you tooth and nail 'till the very end.
NG (not you) are still that fat girl… problem is she seems to have gone a diet and changed her hair. None-the-less, I shall feed her many a Twinkie in her sleep and hope she awakens with bed-head.
When I have no ***** to talk, I will bedazzle you with bull*****! See you next turn (unless you choose to run away from my superior forces), and keep in mind that the Tzun Tzu quote is in reference to another game entirely.
too bad i have to kill you, i think we’d make a good comedy team. but, i am the n gondor, not the s gondor. that was the best part of all the nonsense concerning the harad fleet, it wasn’t even my fleet. #6 is the number for the n gondor nation. anyway, that last reads like i’m chasing my tail. i’ll go down the corner, get me a twinkie and a cup of coffee in your honor. since my head is shaved, bedhead ain’t happening.

[QUOTE=gargamel]Have we quieted you to death yet? Just wondering
nah, i do like fighting the last dk lts starters in 2 places, the cloud lord 2622 is inspired, plus the starting dragon lord cap army now at 2220. guess i’ll have to roll backwards are clear this invasion. great play to take heat off the fire king. too bad you did not land at 2926, then we could have been fighting too.
well,
after i kill the ice king, fire king, retake my pop centers, capture barad dur, liberate the black gate to keep the huns in mordor, and not let them out, i guess i could focus on you. since i’m really behind on that stuff, i guess i’ll have be immortal to find the time to kill you. i miss dennis( my homeslice?) too. i think he was planning on being at 2924 at this point, but really hasn’t taken 3124.
anyway, lotsa work to do, and i really doubt i’ll get any of that accomplished. having all those evil icons crawling around my rear area, its like operation “brokeback mountin’.”
nice,
thats about 13k in troops at 3124. that should do…well done, i think i might have some security issues. avenger, nice work covering 3533. it takes a while to get there. i’ll miss the main meal, but i’ll get a nice snack before you clear me out down there.
meantime, try not to wreck the place. you found it neat, please keep it that way so when i retake it, i don’t have alot of house cleaning.
sm#6
maybe, maybe not.
i’m a bit more concerned about the swarm in the ithil pass. besides, couldn’t let you sit down there all alone, so made the play for 3533. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
3 Armies is alot for your situation. You’ve gotten the Cloud Lord to take notice, though.
But that’s alot of Commanders away from home. We’ll see how this boils down.
i’d imagine its gonna boil down kinda like this.
the big lobster pot at barad dur, with lotsa nice veggies and stuff to make a good base. me dropped right into it, steve stew, well done.
we’ll see what next turn brings. sorry if im not confident, but 13k in troops at 3124 will do that. i’d like to thank everybody for coming to say hi and taking a piece of my real estate.
not really ambushed. you had 900 defenders to my 600 attackers. i decided not to let you kidnap vagaig. nice work with all those defenders at 3122. how many positions are you guys running now: six, seven, eight. either way, well played. a few more turns like this and i’m toast. you seem to be joining a game every week, bad news for anybody on the other team.
again, well played.
