In Progress Decline 20: Dominions 5: Defenders of the Faith

[KoolNoodles]

So are we rolling this one back? I missed a whole Pretender turn. I missed taking Abysia. I missed tentacle time.

 

[KoolNoodles]

I hope you didn't do that on my behalf Dayyālu , you know I stale more than the average man. I'll take it though!

I am powered by hate and i'll need to redo all the battle against machaka with a different strategy (I have several but none is as amusing as flying skellies)

I now feel endless hatred for you all

I hope you get mildly uncomfortable weather in your country for a couple of days as divine punishment

This, at least, is assured.

in your country

Chist'e' O Paese Do Sole ...

Chist'e' O Paese Do Sole ...

Your place, maybe.

Spoiler

Home sweet home. Yep, that's literally where I live

I always asked myself why people found Silent Hill-style fog creepy. I mean, one got used to daily fog after a while.

Then I discovered that more civilized parts of the world do not enjoy the massive amounts of fog the Pantokrator sends my way.

But I'll stop shitposting now.

 

[Matalarata]

Your place

 

[Isiloon]

i hope you guys saw that fight

 

[sqeecoo]

Huh, the 2h file I used for my last Ulm turn is valid ingame but not for llamaserver. Weird. Guess I have to redo the whole thing

You did update to the recent patches, didn't you? I suppose just changing something to resave the 2h at latest version should make it compatible.

 

[Matalarata]

Guys, maybe let's do a little extension? Just to be safe?

 

[Dayyālu]

I already extended it 36 hours.

Godfuckdammit IF YOU STALE I AM GOING TO TO TO:...

do something

 

[KoolNoodles]

Everybody left to submit is basically out of the game...right?

How is it still turn 50?

 

[Dayyālu]

How is it still turn 50?

Because a bunch of assholes wanted me to lose 1k extra skellitons and 12 Thaumaturgs by giving Isiloon twice all the details to counter my army.

Killed them all nonetheless. Thank God for Rigor Mortis and Fog Warriors.

 

[Matalarata]

Because I forgot to extend the timer the first time and a bunch of people, not Matalarata mind you, staled their turns. Twice.

edit: screencapped for posterity, since we're dealing with commies here. Never forget.

 

[Dayyālu]

You are right but this does not mean I don't get to rage

Flying skellitons were awesome and I was forced to get the inferior derp strategy instead of fatiguing everything and killing them

All of this to get Sqeecoo more optimization to get even more provinces in a single turn

Awesome, don't you say

 

[Matalarata]

Have you got proof of what you're saying? I know for a fact that sqeecoo is lazy. He probably just kept submitting the same turn again and again. As I did.

 

[Isiloon]

Ah yeah, I did much better this time.

The magic of positioning

COMMIE TRUTH

You were sayin'?

 

[Isiloon]

Shame I was too lazy to equip my guys with gems to cast my own battlefield spells. Also - your best contributors to damage where my spiders that you stole :D

 

[Dayyālu]

You were sayin'?

I consider it a tribute to the Moral Superiority of the Left.

1k dead skellitons to prove my honesty and worthiness as host.

I am still raging deep inside

 

[Isiloon]

Lol - most of the losses were from Dayyālu's mages deciding to run away because 12 of them got too tired from rigor mortis and died...

Rigor Mortis was the real winner here, look at those fucking wolves and skellies left after the mages retreated, what a waste

 

[Dayyālu]

Yeap, timelimit on attack is a bitch.

Thing is, the options were limited: if I didn't Rigor Mortis you your mages would have kept low-range Evo spam (devastating against stock infantry) and with no flying attacks possible thanks to bodyguards it would have been a complete disaster.

I hoped that Relief+Regen combo would have kept the basic communion up for enough time, but it didn't work. Attacking a 50 Mage stack with a sizeable sacred defense is always an interesting nut to crack, despite apparent number superiority: you did have a fair chance at victory you know, and would have probably pulled through if you bothered to cast Battlefield spells.

Mass Flight was supposed to be a trump card, and it worked swimmingly the first two times, with sub - 450 losses. This time I barely lost living Legionnaires but lost at least two turns of skellie production.

Hey, I wanted a great battle, I got a great battle to plan and execute. More fun than spamming Golems against weaker opponents, I guess
