I have a post mostly ready, but I'll wait to finish it until others have had the opportunity to post.

He never woke up... RIP *Salutes*

Quite a short post, as I was at a bit of a loss as to what to write about. Sorry for the delay, the site was down for me yesterday so I couldn't post. Anyway, my full force is attacking the Hightower host, I just wasn't sure where they would be so I left it a bit ambiguous. Hopefully the dice are more kind to me this time. Oh and Panda I'll respond to your letter in my next post.

Was your professional army marching on high tower too? Or just the praetorian knights?

Yes, the professional army is. Everything in the nation card.

Okay, here are the raw results of the rolls:

14,700 Bohaddon

Bonuses: Disciplined Army (-5% casualties +5% to defenders)

8,000 Lizards

Bonuses: Defending Hightower ruins (+10% Bohaddon's casualties)

---

Bohaddon Rolls

Combat Roll = 1 = 10% Casulaties

Significant Event/Disaster Roll = 2 (Loss of Flank) = 10% Casulaties

Scaling Hightower Ruins = 10% Casulaties

Army Size Difference -10% Casulaties

-5% Disciplined army

= 15% Total Casulaties

2205 dead.

---

Blackfang Rolls

Combat Roll = 3 = 20%

Significant Event/Disaster Roll = 2 (Loss of Flank) = 10% Casulaties

+5% (Attacked by disciplined army)

Size difference + 10% Casulaties

= 45% Total Casulaties

3,600 dead.

---

15% vs 45% = 30% Casualty Difference = Bohaddon Victory

Outcome: 4,300 remaining Lizards withdraw from Hightower's ruins, but in an orderly manner. Hightower region remains under Blackfang control, but Hightower Citadel lost to invaders.

---

Basically you scored a pretty solid victory - not a crushing victory however, and so the Lizards did not rout. They have withdrawn to regroup, but the Citadel is yours, and would make for an apt staging post for further military action. Be warned though, that in light of this defeat, the Blackfang Empire may divert resources to your front (as would be logical).

EDIT: *DISCLAIMER* There is a chance that your general can die in my dice rolling system (which is how I keep losing my main characters!) so do be warned. If it happens, you have to accept it.

I assumed my General died in the last battle as it didn't go very well, so I'm glad to hear he has actually survived. And I'm even happier that I won that battle! I'll get a post up tomorrow or the day after detailing the battle etc

Well, my rolls only detail the cold and inculcating wrath of the dice. You are free to add on additional events/information for story purposes - for example, if you felt your General deserves (or needs) to die, then you could throw that in there.

Lol I apologize. Creativity is really on a stump. I cant churn out original plots unless it's a derivative from someone elses post hahaha. I'm still writing though ;-;

It's been a busy week for me, but i should have something up tonight, just a general post of news coming from Vanguar and Amplesh. I'll have a legit IC up in the following days on Stryke's struggle to maintain control of Vanguar in his father's absence.

I'm going to be AFK most of today, noting, and possibly tomorrow. I'm studying for an online test I'm taking tomorrow. I have a post in mind, and will make it if I can.

I'll get a post up tommorow, sorry for the wait.

Random question but is there a time period where steam games are really cheap?

Arrrr no...Creativity....Arrrrrr!!!

:(

I just can't wait til the dark elves starts coming to my place tbh ;-; Makes me want to forgo all the smaller plots that I had in mind. lol

Anyway, yeah. Wait for steam summer sales!

I can enact it sooner, with the consent of the other players.

EDIT: The weeks only tick over when I am satisfied enough people have posted... just in case anyones wondering why we've only moved four weeks in the past two weeks IRL.

Guys, am a bit busy with work these days and free time has become somewhat of a luxury so I probably won't post till Monday. Or, in case of a miracle, tomorrow.

Posted, sorry for the long delay.

Edit: oh, and if i forgot to mention a serious matter, just tell me.

Eternal, you're gonna need a lot of salt, if your ships are going to be at sea they need salt to preserve the food stocks. Here comes the money. :)
