Jimmy Buffet landed in his personal seaplane and prepared to begin. Jimmy renamed his capitol to Mobile, AL in honor of his hometown. He headed to the ruin of the NW Elemental which offered to join his cause. So, Jimmy gave him a recipe and the elemental headed for city 12 which he conquered and pillaged (+175) without incident. He promptly renamed the city in honor of his favorite beverage - Margaritaville. After finding the elemental, Jimmy saw an apparition in the distance. So he proceeded NW and found a ghost to join the party. Jimmy decided to stay in this world and dispatched the lone scout home in the seaplane. As dusk was falling over the broad Savanna, Jimmy sent orders to the cities. 01-Mobile, AL will begin producing mighty griffons (-1700) and 12-Margaritavil will begin training spiders. Jimmy rested on the beach, nibbled some sponge cake, and played a tune on his faithful six-string. Summary ====================== Jimmy Buffet Arrives searches two ruins finds elemental and ghost elemental captures city (12-Margaritavil) pillages +175 New production ==================== 01-Mobile, AL adds griffons (-1700 gold) 12-Margaritavil adds spiders ( -700 gold) final stats ==================== cities=2 gold=10814 income=112 expenses=0 Jimmy Buffet --- experience 6 change +6 Aside note from the real player - Patrick Domning ================================================= Greetings Warlords, Congratulations on surviving the first two rounds and making it to the Duel of the Gods.

I hope to get back online before the turn makes it back to me. If not, you will just have to wait.

I knew I would loose a timeout and that's cool as I don't intend to use the rest of them :-) I just couldn't get any inspiration through the week.

No longer will we tolerate the appalling conditions that have been forced upon us by The Establishment [ed. find out who these people are for the final draft]. We call all Revolutionaries, Rebels (with and without causes), and general Trouble Makers to join us under our Red Flag... Red for the blood of martyrs!!! We know you are fed up with having your every wish and desire pandered to by this corrupt society. Well you don't have to tolerate it anymore!! You could be wading through the bloody corpses of your enemies! Join now, the battle has begun! Charisma - self appointed leader of the Revolutionary armies. Leaked internal memo 1 (from Charisma to generals): The revolution has begun! May it never end! We have already established a base of operations in the city of 03. Fortunately, there were quite a number of Counter Revolutionaries and other Reactionary forces that had to be... eliminated. In honor of this noble effort the city has been renamed Guillotine. Long live the revolution!! Rooting out the counter revolutionary elements has revealed that they use the code name "scout" to identify each other. Kill all "scouts" on sight! Don't ask questions, they might provide answers. Do not fear that we will rest now, a plan is in the works that will insure our success! Details in a future coded message. Charisma Spy report: Charisma spotted sneaking into the high mountains. Apparently undergoing some kind of bizarre ritual at the SE Elemental Tomb. She appears to have summoned an Earth Elemental made out of genuine Peasant's Earth! Shortly thereafter, Charisma makes her way to the extreme south east ruin, where she calls upon some long forgotten magic to summon the ghost of an ancient revolutionary. Meanwhile, the elmental disappeared into the earth only to reappear by city of 33. Leaked Memo 2: Fellow revolutionaries! We have enlisted the allegience of our matyred ancestors in the form of elementals and ghosts! The elementals have already laid seige to the city of 33, easily breaking the walls and allowing our loyal comrades to enter! The scouts and other reactionary forces were "purged" quite successfully. In honor of the sudden and cunningly successful sneak attack the city has been renamed "Guerilla War". Charisma Technical: start gold 13039 New Hero "Charisma" arises in 03 (renamed "03 Guillotine").

He likes what he sees on this wonderful land. So, he sends out a message on the coconut telegraph to his favorite bartender/mayor, Captain Tony. Jimmy invites Captain Tony to come and join in the fray. Then he polishes off his third pitcher and sleeps soundly. When morning dawns, Jimmy awakens to find Captain Tony arriving with a fellow bartender. The Captain introduces this wizard of booze, Jim, and then they set out to find a good place for a bar. Captain Tony and Jim settle on City 15 and pillage the poor scouts who reside there. Then they erect a new bar called the FloraBama, where any good soul can stop by for a cool one or join in the mullet toss on Sunday afternoon. The Ghost went to 13-Paris looking for answers to questions that bothered him so. He was impressive, young and aggressive, savin' the world on his own.

Loud thumping of drums, a wailing sound like a cat in heat. Nonsensical rantings. Things are very quiet to the south. Not much noise, just small puffs of smoke and then squeals that sound like pigs.

Domning" to all players; Tournament game B17, Round 4 Side 1, White (Seymour Blood) News arrives this morning. There are great rumblings in the south. PowerJeff seems to have made poor decisions in hiring his servants. A review of his last move shows he has made more poor decisions. PowerJeff could have sent his griffin into the city of 47 to protect his build of wolfriders. There were enough movement points. But alas, he didn't do it. Jimmy feels PowerJeff's pain, so he discusses the merits with Captain Tony over a cold one in the Parrothead Bar & Grill. Jimmy: "PowerJeff has had a few problems with his helpers this game. I feel sorry for him. But, he has left himself wide open this turn. What should I do?" Captain Tony: "Hey, this is the third round of this tournament. You were wiped out last round, and the preliminary one doesn't count. So, you need to do your very best in this position. Also, Bob, indicated that White has a decided advantage. So, not only do you have to win, but you have to win BIG! Judging from PowerJeff's move in round 3 (failing to cover city 47 with the griffin) I don't believe he will survive much more. So look out for yourself and put him out of his misery. Besides even if he had created the build last time, one wolfrider in a single production city would be no match for your elemental, so says the Lords of Warbot." Jimmy: "You are right Tony. I'll send the elemental to teach PowerJeff a lesson." The elemental heads south and takes over "47-No Griffin". He loots the town for gold. He kills off the poor bitch wolf preparing for labor. Then he razes the town, leaving nothing but ashes. He sees the Sentinel coming over the ridge and realizes he must make a hasty exit. Upon surveying the surrounding area he sees that city 46 is unoccupied. So, he heads toward it. He is almost out of breath, but he reaches the safe confines of the city. Now, he must consider his plight. He realizes there is no way he can defend the city, so he pillages the griffins and burns the city "46-Jeff's Folly" to the ground. Then he pens a quick letter to Jimmy telling him the location of his Last Will & Testament. Captain Tony is overseeing the development of the marina surrounding the Parrothead Bar & Grill, when word arrives of a mysterious crypt nearby. He cautiosly searches the crypt and finds two demons resting there. Terrified beyond belief at the size of this creature, he immediately kills one. The other seeing Tony's strength and speed with a bottle opener, and being overcome by the liquor on Capt Tony's breath offers his support. A spider takes the town of 17 and pillage the poor scouts living there. It is a quaint little town, so Jimmy names it after his daughter, whom he lovingly refers to as "Little Miss Magic". Another spider takes the city of "52-San Francisco" pillages it and starts production of catapults. Jimmy decides to head on out to San Francisco, for the Labor Day Weekend Show. So he puts on his Hush Puppies and heads on out. Summary ======= Captain Tony searches ruin and finds demon. (+3 exp) Elemental takes "47-NO Griffin" loots (+318), pillages (+225), and razes.

The fires are like a cleansing potion, wiping away the decadence of the past! Sadly... this beautiful handiwork was not the work of our fellow revolutionaries, but rather of the carousing white armies. Perhaps this is a sign. The Red Flag of Revolution waves just as bravely for its goals regardless of who's hand wields the sword. With respect to this principle, the large and growing legion's of discontents propose a non-agression pact with the white fire brands of the north west! The proposed terms of the pact are as follows: From this point through turn 10, we will not attack each others armies or cities, and will not undertake to penetrate each others territories. One turns notice shall suffice to dissolve this pact. Do you accept? I think it would be in both of our interests to engage in this pact. We both have potential enemies on two sides.

Blue was feeling pressure from the border cities of 41 West Gate and 44 Key West but until the screaming elemental pillage and raze attack, no units were dispatched nor direct statements of war. This along without building units for a turn left him a quite upset. Nomad and Seymour have a non-aggression pact until turn 10.

Your situation is dire indeed. You have deduced correctly in your assessment of the white\Blue alliance and of their haste to plunder the Blue Kingdom. I can't say I blame the previous Blue Lord for deserting the game under these circumstances, but since we must play on, neither Red or White can be blamed for taking advantage of it. We don't have to love them for it either:-) There is no alliance between the Yellow Peril and any player. When the previous Blue Lord asked who would ally with a peasant ( you may find that message in another place )The Yellow Peril extended their support until Red and White are effectivly defeated. But I pointed out that, in the end, there can be only one. I see the demise of Blue as being a deadly blow to Yellows expectations. I never received a reply to my offer but still I'm sure it was noted by Red and White. An Alliance with me will serve you little but moral support. Still there it is for what it is worth. If accepted I will make your enemies my enemies. If not ... then I'll just go on fighting them anyway, since they will not need to many troops in the south :-( I urge you to make sure you search all your ruins before they are over run. It will take a Great Warlord indeed to win from your position ( or mine for that matter) Still these are the circumstances we have.

Nothing is left save a few dying embers twinkling in the dirt. Avert your course and attack elsewhere. So Captain Tony heads to the carousel and captures the 63-Golden Ring. As they walk into the city, they are swarmed by spiders. Merlin casts a bolt of lightning evaporating the dreaded spiders. As, they settle in the ring, more spiders come and offer the allegiance. Fearing Merlins' mighty power a band of orcs and a company of Lt infantry also offer their allegiance. The dreaded Demon, Brutus, heads for 63-Shangri La and coerces the spiders to work for Jimmy's cause.

Quite a rabble of cut throats had he in tow following blindly wherever he'd go. Yellow Perili leapt in the air, upending, the lamp went off like a flare. In drunken confusion they ran 'round and 'round To bad, Hanging Rock was burned to the ground. Perili was blackened with soot head to toe. He was far to black for his red rage to show. Grasped he, his sword, assembled the men, just then old Buffet rode past again, singing a tale of steam trains and stuff. Finally Perili had just had enough. They fell on the white men, without a sound and dashed Buffets guitar onto the ground. Buffet defeated fell from his cart, and immediately died of a breaky heart.

The invadin blue hordes of penetrated our outer defenses. In fact, this is definately the fault of the highest generals. What happened? Could our leaders have been so careless? Dissent is rampant. The rebellious ranks of the red armies grow restless. Frantically pooring over strategies the generals do not realize what is happnenin until too late! Riots in the cities!! Smoke can be seen from horizon to horizon. Blazing infernos stand where once were the majestic walls of the Red Citadels. Tearing apart their homes, shops, streats, and neighbors, the enraged masses leave an unforgettable mark on the southeastern landscape. Standing amidst the ruins of her once mighty kingdom, Charisma sadly considers the options. Shall we surrender? Give up in defeat? Curl up like a beaten dog and die? NEVER!! Till the last we shall struggle! With this determination, Charisma makes her way south, retribution is her goal. As she travels, it seems as if her determination has made her stronger. Her legs stride out farther and she grits her teath, contemplating the battle to come. Her last message to the troops in the pleasant resort city of 31 North Reach rang harshly in their ears. "Fight! Go forth and redeem our honor on the battlefield." Putting their arms to the oars, the frightened but determined soldiers push to sea. In the waters near the smoking remains of 06 Acid Rock, a fierce naval battle ensues WarBOT beta 8 Armyset: Tournament b1-4 WL version: PC Deluxe Intense Combat: Off Terrain: Water/shore Hero Bonuses Non- For- TOTAL Minus Fly Natural Item Hero tify City Cancel BONUS Enemy Item -------------------------------------------------------------- ATT: 0 0 0 0 *0* 0 No DEF: 0 0 0 0 0 *0* 0 No Entered Final Attack Units: Strength Strength Survival % --------------- -------- -------- ---------- Minotaur (navy) 6 4 0.95386 <-- Lives!

Over 20% of the cities were razed during these turns. Nomad, 5 razed cities at your own hand? I could see others in my position call you a coward. But strategically that was what had to be done. Tough call to make. Steve the Giant, Seymour probably thought Shangri-la and his demon was safe. I had to take the opportunity to eliminate his cancel non-hero. Your pegasi should enjoy some nice city feasting now. This is what you were looking for, blue and yellow creating a little havoc! :) Let me know some ideas if we need to collaborate attacks in the future.

Great lord I would not presume to advise you as you have already surprised and enthralled me with your every move. I see no reason to deny your enemies the certain thrill of being surprised by the Blue's. Beware that you are not overrun in your hour of victory, the Reds seem to be drawn to you as if by magical force. The word "Struth" comes from an old Rock Legend. The Legend goes, there is in the far south a Great South Land populated entirely by Hero's from all parts of the world.
