Go ahead and postpone hosting until your comp is good and well, if that suits your fancy.

Oooh! Where did all those earth elementals come from? Was it really you, slMagnavox, you Kailasan ape? Or maybe there's something more fishy going on?

Hey, I plead innocence. My high-level earth mages were otherwise occupied. If you insist on disbelieving that I sent so much as one elemental at ya, I can show you. Your witness might not enjoy the demonstration, though.

And if you think Kailasa doesn't do Earth Elementals, you've been leading a charmed damned life, and I'll kindly request a donation to the Atlantian Martyrs, Kings, and Adjuncts Disinterment and Reburial  Fund...

You mean, they've suddenly managed to muster seven times their usual elemental output, and on top of that all aimed at a province with certain somebody, who just so happened to be enjoying his holidays on the waterside, and nowhere near Kailasa proper?
Well, I guess it's not that improbable.

And that certain someone managed to not be the target of a single elemental.  I think your Troll King must have some hidden attribute that attracts earth magic or something.  Or else someone tipped off the Dog.

Also Moose Knights, lol.

Yeah, too bad there's no way to get more of them other than included in the package with the troll king. They be some really badass fellas.

Seriously - you overestimate my Earth might. I will (perhaps intemperately) confide that the loving RNG has so far this game grace me with TWO Basalt Kings with Earth Magic at a level that could be boosted up enough to cast an Earth Attack. Two. There's a 37% chance that every one I recruit could be "bootstrapped" to cast that (as opposed to taking a 60-gem empowerment, plus the boot), and I've gotten two. One of whom with so many others died fighting that God-awful army that you finally routed at Sulphur Springs which ate at least half my resources for 15 turns or so, and the other of whom was busy on (long-term) summoning duty last turn. Your scouts (Scouts? What are those?) who I'm sure are skulking in East Ssothoswamp and its neighbors should be able to confirm that its contents have changed from last month in a non-importable manner.

Hmm... it's been a little while since anyone stated this universal truth, so I suppose it's time again. Vannish PD sucks, yo. Grumble, grumble, growl.

Nevermind their damned armies are invisible on top of that nasty PD.  Nothing more fun than marching into 200+ glamoured heavy infantry backed up with thunderstrike.

Find one of the oh-so-lovely (and oh-so-rare) indy troll kingdoms and you can just buy the blighters. And laugh with much gleeful malice, obviously.

Invisible, javelin-toting glamoured heavy infantry. Mustn't sell them short, now.

Had kinda hoped to get another turn finished up this afternoon before I left for the xmas holiday, but it hasn't happened.  Could we get an extension to Saturday, say 1600 GMT?

Nooo, seriously? There are trollish recruitable independents in the game? I MUST HAVE THEM! How come I've never found any, despite all those years of playing? Are they era-specific, maybe?

Oh, and Merry Christmas everyone. Or merry Winter Solstice, if you're not much into christianity-derived traditions.

Solstice was on the 21st.  I know because we celebrated it on the 21st, since my dad gets pissed at the thought of acknowledging a blatantly Christian holiday.

He can be a bit odd at times.  But, hey, I got some of my loot early, so what do I care?
