Erfworld Empires

[BLANDCorporatio]

Good morning y'all.

Oh wow, it appears that good luck has shone upon me. Well, let's not let this go to waste.

Woman Empire, turn 10

1. Income

250 + Eco bonus (30%) = 325. Plus remaining schmuckers from last time (118) makes 443 Schmuckers available.

2. Build and upgrade.

No *sigh*. All those empty hexes left by Escotia disappearing are so appealing.

3. Pop units.

4 Cavalry at Bwistol.
(EDIT)4 Cavalry at Pwague.

4. Upkeep.

3 Characters + 81 Infantry + 8 Cavalry = 273 + 24 = 321 Schmuckers.

5. Move

4 Cavalry, Dittomancer Pliny the Younger: Bwistol->Orlan.
4 Cavalry: Pwague->L8.
1 Infantry: E7->F9.
1 Infantry: Bwistol->F8.
1 Infantry: Bwistol->E7.
1 Infantry: L7->K7.
1 Infantry: M6->L7.
1 Infantry: N7->M6.
1 Infantry: L8->Auria.
(EDIT) 7 Infantry: N7->L8.

6. Combat.

None.

7. Turn report.

Pwague (L4): 4 Infantry
Pawis (L4): 13 Infantry.
Wome (L5): 5 Infantry, Cwassus (Economancer), Midas (Economancer)
Wottewdam (L4): 5 Infantry.
Fwankfuwt (L4): 5 Infantry
Bwistol (L4): 19 Infantry
Orlan (L5): Pliny the Younger (Dittomancer), 4 Cavalry.
Auria (L5): 1 Infantry.
C8: 3 Infantry.
L8: 8 Infantry, 4 Cavalry.
A5, B5, B10, C5, D5, D6, D8, E4, E6, E7, F8, F9, K7, L7, M5, M6, M8, N7, N8: 1 Infantry at each.

443 - 321 = 122 Schmuckers remaining.

[Nihila]

So, LTDave, you can make a brave attack on Wome if you pop four fliers at Sudwessud. Or, you can gracefully cede the game to BLAND. The rest of you can make rude gestures at BLAND or cede the game, because BLAND's infantry screen makes it impossible to hit any capitols. Which is a pity, because that would be pretty neat, and because this is a pretty anticlimactic ending.

[Crovius]

Can I get a map please? I think I'm the only player left to take a turn since everyone else still in has gone.

And also, since I'll only be taking turn 8 (while BLAND is on turn 10) His actions are 2 turns ahead of mine. So yeah, Anything he does in game to me happens 2 turns after, and anything I do to him would have to be retroactively taken into account. For example, unless that infantry screen was there on his Turn 8, they don't even exist to me.

That's not quite how they've been playing it. If you look at the Escotian and Suddewmen turns, Escotia attacked, on their turn 8, the capitol that the Suddewmen took on their turn 9.

[Twoy]

I believe the current turn order is:
LTDave
Crovius
Twoy
BLANDCorporatio
(Probably game over)--Though LTDave could hit Orlan from Wessud and Sudside, which would allow me to possibly take Orlan from the Womans, but I can't think of any reason why LTDave would want the game to continue after he has been knocked out.

[Crovius]

I know, it's just weird... But I'll wait till LTDave posts, or until the 4th, whichever comes first.

[WaterMonkey314]

I think LtDave can actually make a flyer assault on both Orlan and Wome (Orlan - flyers from Wessud; infantry or cavalry from Sudside; Wome - Nihila's flyer attack).

Of course, with that Dittomancer in Orlan... I think both are doomed to failure. The Suddewmen are probably out, but there could be a chance they empty a capital and buy the others some time.

[Twoy]

The dittomancer can only be used once every three turns.

[BLANDCorporatio]

The dittomancer can only be used once every three turns.

If anyone asks, as long as I have 4 cavalry at Orlan being attacked by 7 troops that do not include siege, I am not using the Dittomancer.

VICTORY TO: DEFENDER

But I inflict enough hits to wipe out the Woman defenders in Orlan, opening the way for Nawnian Forces to enter the empty city.

In the Battles in F8 and F9 the Woman Infantry in both are destroyed regardless of who wins the battles.

Their treachery repaid in buckets of cwoaked, the Suddewmen melt in the spring sunshine.

My apologies to all for some foolish choices, which have made the game less interesting. I've done my best to keep it going a bit longer.

[LTDave]

And a map.

[BLANDCorporatio]

Twoy wins. Congratulations, well played and very bold! A deserved win.

As in, I'm not attacking any of Twoy's capitals when my turn comes. I doubt Crovius can do anything about them.

(EDIT: well, I won't be attacking Orlan, of course Auria is mine!)

[Twoy]

Twoy wins. Congratulations, well played and very bold! A deserved win.

Do you concede, Crovius? If not, it's your turn.

[Crovius]

Hell. I'm going for it.

END TURN

[BLANDCorporatio]

I see Auria is still in Woman hands. This is fine.

Look, my turn would go like (excuse me if I ignore Schmuckers)

Build Awsenia at M8. Because that's what Womans do
Pop 5 Infantry in Auria.
Move 1 Infantry Auria->J8;
1 Infantry Auria->J9;
(troops at L8: all, except 2 Infantry)->Auria.
1 Infantry Auria->K10.

No combat. Congratulations Twoy!

[WaterMonkey314]

Congrats, Twoy!

And BLAND... Womans rebuild fallen cities one hex south?

[Nihila]

And BLAND... Womans rebuild fallen cities one hex south?

"And build roads! And running water! And bring peace!"

"Okay, but besides the roads, water, peace, and rebuilding one hex south, what have the Womans done for us?"
