Stupid question, but what is the name of the next city?

That's not a stupid question - it's a very good one! We can't very well do FP2strom.

[Krill]

*Shrug* Sandstorm works, I suppose.

[Blake]

Cascade?

[Arrian]

I like Sandstorm, but I don't really care. Whatever you guys like.

-Arrian

[Ennet]

Sandstorm is nice

[Ennet]

Cascade feels coastal to me, but that might be because of the swedish equivalent of the word. Oh man im really dyslectic -can't spell

[Randolph]

Dustdevil?

Received from Donegeal.

Grog is DEAD! Rip Grog.
It seems that your war of Aggression has begun to cost you the lives of your people.

Your veteran warrior, Grog died as a result of your illegal incursion into Voxian land. Not a single Stormian was left alive.

We insist that we both call off our forces and begin to discuss terms of peace as equals. Let us not waste lives senselessly in a war without prupose or cause.

Donegeal, retiring Voice of Voxism

Ok, now for the nitty gritty game terms.

We attacked Grog with our Archer on the flood plains. He had only a 27.7% chance of success, but it was appearently all he needed. The Archer killed Grog and was left at 1.0/3 health.

When the Archer moved in, the inital battle left us with 1 Archer figure and you 2 warrior figures. A warrior figure moved over to our Archer and was killed. The last warrior moved over and the combat was a draw once, then Grog fell. A truey inspiring battle (well, for us anyway).

Anybody over there know how to make an in game battle log that I can send you?

Reply sent.

Thanks for the news.

I don't think a detailed log is needed. We can view the combat log when we get our turn. It is nice to get advanced information of a general nature though.

[Arrian]

RIP Grog. Damn, I was hoping he'd take out an archer.

-Arrian

[Krill]

Grog is Dead, Long Live Grog!

[Hot Mustard]

Long live Grog! His demise spells the doom of The Voice! (Not like that was in doubt)

I like Dustdevil, or if we want to be obscure we could do "Taz City".

I can play this turn tonight around 7pm eastern time.

There aren't any major decisions to make, IIRC... the only one I can think of at all is which way to move spinebreaker. Sorry for not getting a screenshot up of where he's at - I took one, but 'poly rejected it as too big and I didn't want to deal with uploading it so I could post it.

He's on the NW coastline of the continent. IIRC, the only forested path is to retrace his moves from last turn (7-7).
