__________ __________/ \__________ <__________ Turn 1 __________> \__________/ _______________________________________________________________________________ The following message was sent on Monday October 06, 1997 at 12:33 PM EDT by "aubjf" to all players; Dear Wargs, Sir Phoenix, Montressor and Evgeny, On a cold autumn morning, you are walking on the top rampart of your castle watching your troops practising before the war in your vast territories in Middle Earth. Suddenly you catch sight of a gray knight galloping towards you on a beautiful wild white horse far off in the direction of the rising sun. As his silhouette becomes more and more distinct, you come down to receive him personnally. You immediately recognised Gandalf on Shadowfax. As soon, Gandalf was entered in the main Hall, he presents you an old brown scrool covered with a fine runes writting, you suppose be Lord Elrond's one. Fortunately during your youth, your father teached you to decode magical runes, and so you deciphered: >"Dear Warlord, > >The long waited day is finally arrived... > >Gandalf, my messenger, brings with him a reminder of all special rules you may need during >your battle against the three ennemy kingdoms. I suppose you already have them in mind, but >I prefered to be sure... > >He brings with him a geographic map too, so you will be able to start moving now your >troops towards the central coveted circle. Remember you will have to fight during 20 weeks >for the supremacy on these lands and if you lose you will let Sauron's henchmen invasting >Middle Earth... > >Good Luck, signed Lord Elrond" As soon you finished to read the scroll, it disappears between your hands and before you had time to say something, Gandalf was far away galloping always Shadowfax in direction of Western lands, where live a strange race called Hobbits. You think that he is joining back the Ring Company in Rivendell to help its against the evil Sauron of Mordor. You let your imagination dreaming during an instant and you imagine you fightening fiercely for the freedom of Middle Earth. When you come out of your awake dream, you find on your feet the map and a small piece of paper containing the previously mentioned reminders. You read: >"Round A Rules Reminders! >Last Updated 30-September-97 by Bob Heeter > >Read this message carefully - it contains a lot of essential information! > > *** Critical Scenario and Rules Changes from the Practice Round *** > > * Starting Gold: 4200/side > > * Razing: On Capture only > > * Round A games will last for 20 turns! > > * New Gold Rules: > > The gold limit for Strongholds is now 2500.

He had come riding of distant lands and nobody in the Kingdom knew their name. Some thought that, for their aspect, he should be a survivor of the War of the Five Armies; other, on the contrary, they saw it as a vulgar hunter. Few they ventured to go to him. One of these people were Iltros, implacable warrior belonging to the dunedain, who protected to the towns of the north of any threat. Initially Iltros only exchanged some few words with the stranger, although enough to perceive the hate that reigned in its face. Accidentally he noticed of it when by mistake mentioned the name of Mordor. The traveler that up to now was shown absent, it had changed their expression completely when hearing that name. Gingerly, the dunedain tried to know the cause of that change, but she/he didn't obtain answer and soon after the foreigner left the tavern without saying nothing else. Several days passed and Iltros didn't know nothing else of the singular man, until an orcos group attacked for surprise. Then Iltros, leadership a small group of men combatted fiercely against the invaders, penetrating with its sword the armors of the brutal orcos. It was this way putting an end one by one to the enemy horde, but the men under their control didn't possess experience in the arts of the combat and quickly they were murdered cruelly, until finally Iltros was penned by the astute beasts. It was then when all of a sudden the warring youth appeared whose eyes possessed an almost magic shine, granted maybe, for a deep ire. When seeing similar hate reflected in their opponent the orcos they doubted an instant, what offered the enough time so that Iltros restarted its attack. Scarce it was the time for those miserable orcos whose lives extinguished in the face of the power and the force of two big warriors. After some instants, Iltros asked: - Who are you and where learned so well the arts of the fight, oh, traveler of the long roads? - Strange it is the message of the birds that they live in this Kingdom when invaders of other regions arrive, my dear dunedain. You have been valiant when trying to only confront your to these unhappy ones, more should say that you have not worked with intelligence. Your audacity will take you prematurely to the tomb Surprised, Iltros responds: - They are raw words for a youth warrior, however, I accept your advice and I thank your help. Plus not yet you have responded to my question, foreigner. - I come from the lands where the Last Alliance was sealed, in the one which the sage Gil-Galad and the great Elendil defeated the Enemy. Long it has been my in route through of hard battles, one of them the most grandiose and cruel of all: The War of the Five Armies, liberated in the waste earth where once the powerful Smaug reigned. From then on I have traveled without direction until today, eliminating to all those beasts created by the Enemy that they have dared to cross in my road. As for my name, I am Phoenix, son of Eldix and descending of the warriors of the already destroyed Osgiliath. Two decades have passed from that encounter of heroes. During this lapse, the Three sages defeated the Necromancer's evil power and they were able to locate to the Only one. Many are the battles sustained by Phoenix and Iltros, next to Aragorn, son of Arathorn and leader of the dunedain. Now, the Nine Riders have emerged and the Mount of the Destiny burns again.

Armies of evil, led by the great conqueror Wulf, attack Rohan from the West and East and destroy the country. To the south, Gondor is overrun by the fleets of the Corsairs and nearly all of the northwest is in enemy hands. The mighty Hero Helm retreats to Helm's Deep, and it is said by some that he died there. Fraulaf later drives out Wulf and his ilk, but no more is seen from Helm, the last of the First Kings of the Mark until...... Turn 2 for the Wargs, Guardians of Rohan. The mighty Hero Helm emerges from Helm's Deep (renamed from IOC) with a glorious form garbed in gossamer white sporting wings of silk at his side. (Hero plus Archon 1047 gp). Helm immediately seeks to restore his lost fortunes in a great quest to restore Rohan to it's former glory. The Great Hero Wodan, descendant of Helm and a Second King of the Mark, is reconquering territory to the north, so Helm heads East, first exploring Steve's Hand, where he rediscovers the Official Sponsoring, a token lost long before in the battle of the Wold. (+6 gp / city). Helm then journeys on and overruns neutral city Stockholm, pillaging for 175 gp and renaming the city Entwade as it was known in his time before hordes of orcs and other foul folk took his lands. Meanwhile, the Hero Wodan, having recently taken Athens and renamed it Entwade, journeys a brief way south to search the ruins of Domning's Domain, where Gandalf once helped stand off a band of Orcs with King Walda. Wodan discovers an ally there, doubtless left by Gandalf for just such a time of need. With an archon at his side, he journeys on eastward. The archon detours to pillage Antwerp for 175 gp and rename it Fenmarch. The mighty Heroes of Rohan, one from the past, one from the present, begin to summon their forces together for the mighty battle brewing. Scores of Pikemen are recruited to the newly taken city of Fenmarch, and Spiders are bred in the area known as Entwade.

Four hours after separating, Phoenix arrived without difficulties to Kay's Cript, a cave in the near forests to Erebor, and that in another time it was hidden to the eyes of the travelers. It was the home of Stemgo, the dragon. After the death of Smaug, the young dragon decided to hide of the view of the men, since he didn't want to take a risk his life without a good reason. Contrary to Smaug, Stemgo cared the wisdom and the art of the combat, also, it was not anything confident. However, he got him a lot the attention the visitor's stranger behavior that now was in front of him. - Oh Stemgo, last of the powerful race of dragons of the north. You that work with wisdom and with malice at the same time. I have come to request you helps against the evil Enemy. - Uncertain it is the destination of those that dare to enter in my domains this way. However, the Enemy that you mention is also my enemy. Leave now and you won't suffer damage some. - Great Stemgo, I won't leave without before to have gotten your help. It is imperative that you are my ally in the fight against the hordes orca that come closer. Although the whole cave was replete of wealth, the visitor didn't show the smallest attention for these, what interested the dragon extremely. After listening a brief story on the constants advances orcos in the Rough Lands, Stemgo responded. - This undoubtedly is not a searcher of wealth, and neither a talker. Maybe she/he doesn't know the reason for which have decided to help you, warrior. But I will make it with a condition. - Which? - You should combat against me to the sunrise. Long it was the battle among Stemgo and Phoenix that it didn't triumph on the dragon, but certainly he didn't fall defeated. Finally Stemgo was convinced and he decided to ally to the warrior temporarily. During the new day, Phoenix crosses the Black River, in the proximities of Esgaroth, and its journey continues toward the encounter with the magicians of the Chance. ******************Report Template******************* Starting off with 802 gold Sir Phoenix convinced Stemgo in the Kay's Cript.

Castro Z." to all players; Narrative: After convincing Stemgo, Phoenix departs in search of the Twin Magicians of who it was affirmed that they were after the search of the Magic Sphere of the old inhabitants of the Rhovanion, for what the son of Eldix knew ahead of time where to look for. The night was dense and cold. It was not convenient to travel under such conditions, especially going to the Black Forest. Nevertheless, the time it was urgent; it could not be allowed an it retards unnecessary, for what continued. After few hours on the way, it captured his attention a light splendor at certain distance. As he came closer understood that it was not an object, but a sheaf of light that came from a tiny one salient. Suddenly I listen something behind him, but it was already too much late. It had been immobilized. - Who are and that you intend trying to enter in Harrison's House" - I am Phoenix, son of Eldix. I believed to see a brilliant object and now I am here, under the artifices of one of the old magicians of Erebor (obviously nobody more it had immobilized him without at least to touch me) - Good they are your words, traveler. However, you have not responded my question completely. - I have looked for them with the purpose of requesting help to combat to the Enemy's hordes that they want to take possession of the Rough Lands. - We are not willing to abandon our search. - A more serious voice intervened - - They don't have to abandon it. - Phoenix answers -. According to and known, an orcos group has in its power the sphere that you look for. - It is not possible. You lie! - Alone they imagine that those nauseous orcos ends up dominating the power of the sphere. You are the only ones that can avoid it. - Phoenix continued when seeing the doubt reflected in its voices -. I propose them something. Maybe the battle will be brief, for what my words will confirm in a few days. If it is certain, they will be in debt, if it is not it, they will be in freedom of to return and to follow their search. After long silence: - I accept. - They told to the unison the magicians -. Instants later the charm that maintained it immobile disappeared. They rested a couple of hours and then they agreed what each one should make to win time. Phoenix would go toward Panago's Tomb" Weldor would form a small army in the outskirts of " Esgaroth " Awldor would go toward " Rhovanion " to help Stemgo. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Fortunately, Iltros had not had any difficulty in its step for the Cloudy Montains, except, maybe, the thick fog. It traveled slow and carefully the way until getting the deviation toward the habitation of the Devil of the North. Iltros knew the way perfectly, more not so well to the one than he would be its host. Although if enough to know that he would not refuse to offer him especially the help that needed, if it was against common enemies. Soon it reached the entrance of the cave and he entered swiftly. - Greetings, great master. Again I request your valuable help in these times of war. I must prepare an appropriate reception to enemy hordes that seek to take possession of the Rough Lands. - Welcome, Iltros. - It satisfies me that warriors still exist able to face for own initiative the Enemy's terrible powers. - They exist more than what you believe, all willing ones to give their lives to be defeated to the Dark. Long and arduous they have been the battles next to the dunedain. Now comes closer the final moment. - Before, I should notice you of the existence of a traitor. Surprised, Iltros asks: - Who has smashed the sacred oath of loyalty? - It has not betrayed for own will, but their weak spirit has been dominated by one of the nine: The Captain, who he has made him go mad of greed and it has incited him to steal the " Irwin's Vault " treasure, also getting one of the Crystals of the Air that grants the power of flying. - But those crystals have been destroyed! - Exalted Iltros answered - - You see now that it is false. With the power of the crystals the Captain can create very terrible winged beasts: The N=E4zgul. - We should avoid that this happens!, oh, Great Devil. - I fear myself that it is impossible. The Captain already has in his power one of the crystals. Nevertheless, if we are able to recover the second crystal, the Enemy won't have the enough power and it will take several days. This will offer certain time to others that so much need it. - Then, we should leave immediately, but before tell me who is the traitor. - Gentleman of Rohan, of great force but weak of spirit. Sir Woden is his name. Now, we go. They moved swiftly for the mountainous roads until arriving to the last step of the Ered Mithrin where accidentally found Engerel, powerful winged creature and faithful ally of Iltros in previous battles. - Greetings, dear partner. A lot of time has spent from the last time. - Glad Iltros says - - Now that the Enemy has resurged my setbacks they increase and the dangers also; the destination already insists on assigning me the cruellest missions. - This time you will have the satisfaction of fighting against your hated enemy. - Great Devil intervened - - Ahh, wise creature of the mountains. What have you said? - Your thinkings are guessed right. Your crueller and more dangerous enemy; similar creature in aspect, not in spirit. Strong and greedy the one that protects and it accompanies, dominated by the Enemy, next their death is and, maybe also yours, oh, noble Engerel. - My destiny is to confront him and now I understand it. I will fulfill the mission honor, although sure I am of not seeing them again. - Good-bye, noble partner, warrior of big battles. ******************Report Template******************* Now Olympia is Hithaiglin Starting off with 346 gold Sir Phoenix has found the Olimpic Fire.

Castro Z." to all players; The narrative: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Engerel knew perfectly that each step that gave the it drove to a sure death, however the hate that harbored its heart went beyond any fear. He was sure of achieving the victory. He had supposed that their more hidden thoughts would not arrive to be known by any other live being; regrettably he discovered that it was not thus. Could not still believe that the Great evil knew his past when even himself it was obligated continually to forget it. In any way, it was already too late. All of a sudden, the terrible past of Engerel settled in front of him, observing him with certain mocking air. Elegoth, who time behind went toward the dark lands guided by an infamous greed it was in front of him in an imposing warrior's company. In another time, Engerel would have kept in mind the possibility to escape, but not now. Without more preambles, he attacked furiously against Elegoth who had scarcely necessary time to be protected, at the time that ordered Woden to stay to the margin of the combat. Cruel and ferocious it was the battle of those big enemies, same in power. Woden was prepared to act in any moment, since he knew perfectly that in that fight the first error would be the last one, then: the death. Several hours later fought still with all their forces, however Engerel doubted of its resistance. It was then when decided to take a risk when trying to deceive Elegoth with a false action; little by little it diminished the rhythm of the combat in a I attempt to fake weakness, causing that their opponent increased his trust progressively until arriving to a critical point: the final attack approached. All their hopes were centered in avoiding this attack, and this would happen when Elegoth trusted the victory totally. The moment had arrived and Elegoth accumulated all its power in a devastating attack of fire and magic, then Engerel jumped for above being able to avoid the ray partially and being placed behind Elegoth for then to cut down the head of the one hated enemy with his magic sword. After observing the combat attentively Woden it was sure that he would not have opportunity before that supernatural being, for what took advantage of the wound in the leg of Engerel; caused by the Elegoth=B4s ray when jumping, and quickly he came closer being able to pierce with their sword the unfortunate creature's heart. Subsequently Woden took the sword of Engerel and it sustained it on high like triumph test looking at the magic shine that wrapped it. Suddenly he listened a voice full with compassion and of anger at the same time. - I see that I have arrived too late. - said the voice -. The vicious knight returned in address to the strange old man that in spite of his weak aspect, the aura that surrounded it was so strong that it inspired fear. - I am Awldor, wizard of Erebor. Your you should be Woden, the treacherous knight. I have come for the second Crystal of Air, give it to me now. - Never. I will destroy you with the power of this sword and I will take the crystal to the Great Captain. - You are wrong, the magic of the sword will disappear very soon. It is the soul of Engerel and you have taken charge of destroying it. When making it his magic has been dispersed on the Half Earth the same as the magic of Elegoth. - Said Awldor slowly, trying to win time -. - Lies. The sword still has enough magic to defeat you and I will demonstrate it to you. But in that instant, the sword disappeared. The plan of Awldor had worked. When arriving he observed as Engerel it was surprised by the hero's speed, for what to intervene in the moment had been a great error. On the contrary, he hid and it allowed that Woden takes the sword dominated by the greed. The sword would only recognize a new master if it was used at the little time, so he should wait. In another way, Woden would have attacked immediately and the weapon would accept its new owner, transforming it into an enemy difficult to defeat. - Now your defeat is imminent. Surrender the Crystal. - Awldor ordered - - First you will destroy me. - Woden bellowed at the time that attacked - The force was not enemy enough for the old man magic that after avoiding for scarce margin the enemy's attacks, it throws a powerful ray that finishes with the warrior's life. At the time that observed the inert body of Woden, Iltros appeared in company of the Great Devil. - Where is Engerel?. - Iltros interrogated - - He won't return. Awldor answered after observing that the bodies of Elegoth and Engerel had disappeared. - It is sad, but we should not lose time. Now that the Crystal is safe, I should leave toward the old temple. - the Great Devil intervened - Iltros delayed in reacting, its thoughts rotated around his friend. However, it was sure that Engerel had died in peace. It had finished the promise that all its life had tormented him, to liberate its brother of the power of the =A8Enemy=A8. - Leave now, Great Devil. And you, Awldor should go toward Angmar and to help our warriors. While, I will learn the arts of the flight to I will give you very soon reach. It was the beginning of the end, and in another place Gandalf and Elrond prepared what would be remembered as the Council. ************* Report Template ************** Seoul is now the Rough Lands Berlin is now Ridelen St. Louis is now Angmar * Start gold at turn: 202GP * Iltros take a White Standard and Jump of Lewis in the Irwin's Vault. * Phoenix has found 2455GP in Ivan's Palisade. * Demos dominated the Ridelen city and loot 82GP. * Awldor conquered the Angmar city.

Nevertheless, Phoenix didn't feel fear and although it was conscious of the danger of that place, it trusted in that their continuous journeys through the same one offered him enough experience as for not being surprised before the unexpected emergence of unknown creatures. He could feel the Enemy's continuous presence as well as any other creature of the Half Earth, but the necessity to arrive with the biggest speed to Panagos Tomb constituted its stronger impulse, for what continued riding slowly during the whole night, making one that another pause in the journey to observe the route attentively. Several hours had passed when Phoenix was able to contemplate with gladness the moribund gleams of light that difficultly penetrated in the heart of the Black Forest; his journey through the Rhovanion arrived to good term. He accelerated the march gradually, and then he stopped in dry. in the distance it denoted small figures trying to surround what seemed to be a great reptile with wings of eagle that threw toward the small attackers gleams of light. Phoenix came closer slowly with the intention of sighting better to those strange shades, when a sudden blaze made him understand the situation. - Stemgo! ! He rode swiftly and it unsheathed their sword in a shout of war. It was then when the orcos, concentrated in knocking down the dragon, they observed a reddish splendor that grew quickly until touching them. It was the Red Sword of Phoenix. With supreme speed, the orcos was divided in two groups trying to attack both enemies simultaneously, but the great power of Stemgo and Phoenix united to raze without views with the infamous creatures. Concluded the battle, Stemgo spoke: - It began to become difficult the situation, the orcos is they resist my attacks very well. I thank your help, Phoenix. - On the contrary, my good friend. If you were not here now, I had not been able to leave the Black Forest, since they would have attacked me. - Very well, now that we are united, we should continue toward Rivendell. - I imagine that you should be tired. - Phoenix said, going to Kldran, his horse - Kldran fulfilled a brief movement that could be interpreted clearly. - Then you will follow us until Rivendell. Constest=F3 Phoenix after being climbed agilely on Stemgo. Chapter III Battles in the Rough Lands. When arriving to Rivendell, Phoenix was received by the same person that recognized Aragorn before two weeks, while he carried out its it patrols habitual. Glorfinder greeted Phoenix happily just as era its habit, but with Stemgo it didn't happen equally. Some elves didn't trust the dragons, especially because of the remembrance of Smaug. - Stemgo is a valuable friend and ally. We have come searching for Gandalf The Gray one. - Gandalf is no longer in Rivendell, but for sure they will be able to speak with Elrond. Glorfinder -answered - - Very well, we will follow you. - Phoenix calmly spoke - They walked some minutes until the entrance of the Valley, and they continued until the habitation of Elrond. Phoenix had not seen Elrond for long time; eight years, maybe. When young the whole north of the Half Earth traveled before arriving to Iscarh, it was in that time when he met him. He always remembered him as a great sage and for on any thing, a great friend and counselor. He was in front of the main room, when Elrond appeared with smiling face. - Welcome to Rivendell. - My good friend Elrond, I see that you have not changed in anything. The time it has not been able to give you it reaches. - On the other hand you if that you have changed, but let us don't speak here, we go toward the gardens. As they have told me you come with a "small" partner. They went to the central garden, where they were already a good quantity of elves observing the stranger visitor. Some suspicious and other, on the contrary, admired the imposing aspect of Stemgo. - I find well the Great Dragon to be of our side. - Elrond interrupted - - He has not only risen against the Enemy, also the Great Devil and the Magicians of Erebor. However also I have lost a great ally and friend, Engerel has died after defeating Elegoth. - You should not regret it, such an era their fate and it assumed it with courage and nobility. - Phoenix, I believe convenient that you know the last events. Few days ago she/he was celebrated a council of supreme importance here, and for which a representative of each noble Kingdom of the Half Earth was summoned. They were...... When finishing the story of Elrond, there was an overwhelming silence that lasted some few minutes. Then, - We should help to the company. Now more than ever Aragorn needs of the dunedain to conquer. - Then they should leave soon. - Elrond intervened - - We will spend the night in the valley and we will leave to the dawn. - Stemgo decided - - I agree, but I feel that I forget a good partner. Elrond my hors... - It is very well, it arrived little before you. Glorfinder is taking care of him. - He interrupted - The night it calmly lapsed and all slept placidly. * Start gold at turn: 1462gp * Battle near Mt.

Castro Z." and is being sent to all the players of the Warlords II game "A22". Message directed to Wargs: When beginning the round A, I was interested in creating a parallel history to the events of the Half Earth. However, I observed that little by little I have digressed me of the initial history because of Sir Woden's incursion in my territories; what forced me to act quickly. These actions have caused an useless mobilization of both armies. On the other hand I would like to guide my history correctly, that is to say, to continue with the attack to Mordor (Evgeni in this case) and to try that my history agrees with the Lord of the Rings. How if we agree a no-aggression treaty until the shift 15 to be able to concentrate on our respective enemies? If you accept now, after the shift 15 we can break or to continue the treatment as it agrees. If you reject it, we will follow the battle until the end, but I believe that I won't continue with my narration (although maybe it is not very good due to my scarce domain of English). _______________________________________________________________________________ Turn Message: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Tournament Game: "A22" Turn Number: 7 Gamefile Sent To: Montressor (Green) (rdarco@nyseg.com) Date Sent: Thursday December 18, 1997 at 01:25 PM EST Date Gamefile Due: Sunday December 21, 1997 at 1:25 PM EST -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- _______________________________________________________________________________ The following diplomatic history message is from "Gustavo A.

From: Bob Arco@NYSEG on 12/23/97 11:08 AM Message directed to Wargs: I see that Sir Phoenix has proposed a non-aggression treaty with you so that he can concentrate on Evgeny. I remind you that he attacked you, with a full force. I merely sent a nuisance Elemental to raze a neutral city in your territory. You have razed a city in my territory, so I suppose we are even. Your forces are stronger on his border than they are on mine. I encourage you to continue your attacks against him, as he is in the lead. I am willing to call a temporary truce to our conflicts if you do this. Message directed to Evgeny: I thank you for your offer of alliance against Sir Phoenix. Unfortunately, I do not border him and could not mount an effective attack. I must wait for Wargs to respond to my above message to decide what to do next. If Wargs accept Sir Phoenix's offer of non-aggression and move against me, I will accept your offer so that I can concentrate on my northern front and so that you can mount an effective resistance to Sir Phoenix. If Wargs reject Sir Phoenix's offer (as I hope) and counter-attack Sir Phoenix, I must continue our war.

Diplomatic messages: To Sir Phoenix: What an odd perspective you have on war. You start a war by sneak-attacking my Hero while he is exploring ruins in neutral territory. You then move your armies into my country and sack one of my cities, building up a large force there, knowing I cannot properly defend myself with one Hero, especially while Green is simultaneously attacking me from the South. Some turns later, when Evgeny attacks you from the other side, and I have managed to outmaneuver you on my side, you ask for peace! Do you withdraw from my city as a gesture of peaceful intentions? Do you shift your attention to the south where Evgeny lies in wait? No! You continue to move reinforcements toward my country, even while you mouth meaningless words of peace and non-aggression. Well, I have shown you peace, the peace of death. No more of your overbearing troops remain alive in my territories, and any more to enter will meet the same fate. I deal in an openhanded fashion, and am rarely the aggressor as I have shown in this game. However, I will defend my sovereign rights with great zeal and pursue you to the ends of the earth if you do not yield. If you wish to sue for peace, I would suggest you make some sort of conciliatory gesture to placate me, otherwise my wrath will be terrible. To Montressor: I accept your offer of 'temporary truce' with open arms, as I obviously still have to deal with the treachery of the vile Sir Phoenix, outcast and oath-breaker. I have no designs on your territory, and will not expand in your direction. When this temporary arrangement becomes a burden, I will give at least one turn's notice that it is dissolved, and I would expect the same from you. If you wish a firmer pact, please let me know. To Evgeny: Hah! You have some timing. I have watched with anticipation as you develped your forces while the vile Sir Phoenix and Montressor were bent on my destruction, attacking me from both sides in my moment of weakness. Now that I am recovered, they will not have it so easy. As I am a peace-loving soul and have no true intentions of taking the battle to the nest of the Orange oathbreakers, it would be best to gird yourself against further incursions from their end. --------------------- Actions taken this turn: Attacked (temporarily) Orange city of Angmar in my home territory, slaughtering the Orange Hero defending it and occupying the town.

Even your hero appears to be headed south. I do hope the "one turn warning" is not coming too soon, as I feel it would not be in the long term interest of either of us (and certainly not my short term interests) for us to lapse back into hostilities. Evgeny is still very strong and rich. If you attack me, he would certainly get a large share of my cities, and you have made sure that Sir Phoenix will not be much of a limitation for him. Whereas, the number of my cities within your strike range is somewhat limited (thanks to your retaliatory actions). I would ask that we strengthen our alliance and sweep east- ward, and demilitarize (mostly) our border. I have taken the first step by moving my hero away. I encourage you to respond in kind and reduce your forces on my border to the number required for defense, not offense. Montressor P.S. If Evgeny should take Moscow from me, I certainly would have no objections to you taking it from him, and keeping it for the duration of the game, should our alliance hold.

As Sir Phoenix has withdrawn, I have likewise moved my Hero into a neutral position on my border, midway between the Orange and the Green territories. As far as building up on your border goes, I would gladly keep my garrisoned troops in Melbourne in the center of my border, but, alas, someone razed that for me early in the game. I am therefore forced to move some troops up to defend my Hero in the open, as he has no proper city in which to guard my border. As far as hostilities, I was a little miffed when you took Moscow which I had been moving to attack, but as it was well within the scope of our treaty I did not take offensive action (although it turns out to be an ill-considered move as Evgeny has demonstrated). Suffice to say I have no intention of attacking anyone at this point as I am undoubtedly the weakest player on the board after my protracted struggle to throw Sir Phoenix out of my lands. As Evgeny has grown entirely too strong, I would attack him if anyone, unfortunately I do not have contiguous lands and thus remain on neutral terms.

Start Cities: 09 Gold: 756 Income: 200 Expenses: 200 Battles: When the Associated Press news feed reported that the great Reporter Woodward was locked in deadly combat with the Spectator Beregond, a mass of reinforcements were deployed to the scene of battle. Alas, for the forces of Beregond were swifter than expected, and arrived first. Woodward was dead. In horror, the brave Reporter army looked on as Beregond lifted the Green standard and received the Blessing of Olympus. How could such force be defeated? How would we stand against him once his army was around him? The choice was made. We must die now, or die later. Today is a fine day to die.

Beregond plucked an arrow from his shield and prodded the Archer with the magic Triad. He sneered and spat. He looked over at the grotesque Worm, a casualty of the battle, then looked at the Green Standard still flying over his tent. A good trade, he smiled. But his smile turned to a look of abject terror as he saw yet another Reporter army approaching. He started to flee, but alas, his exit was cut off. There was no choice but to fight.
