The game was quite long, and now it's hard to remember all of the evens in succession, however I'd say my side was heavily preassured - from the start from Keldon, then Tass. (I think Tass even came there x2) and finally ended up with Hawk and Tass bringing 3 or 4 stacks each.
Only thanks to a small mistake from Hawk, that I was able to destroy core stack of Hawk and then retreat safely. After which we only needed to combine efforts with eskild.

Also worth mentioning was Tass's invasion underground, where Ix repelled it.

Challenging and fun game with good opponents and team players alike. Both our teams made mistakes during the game, which can´t be avoided with this long a battle going on. Large map where my team started in the SW (me in the far corner) and our opponents in the NE. For such a long game, details for all phases can not be reported due to lack of human memory, but some strategic twists can be mentioned. The battle for the middle of the map was probably the most important. AlX had cleared many of the sites and vassalized an archon dwelling but suddenly faced an army of the draconian necromancer (Hawk) and had to retreat (or was sent to the void?).

That army took the archon dwelling and used GRU to gain control of an archon titan, which turned the army into a gruesome threat that continued roaming in the SW direction. Ix329 tried to follow that army, but eventually it got lose on my territory, won a couple of battles and managed to take my capitol before I could scramble enough forces to take it down. Worse things got by the schorced earth spell giving me the hard choice of either letting the enemy plunder it for loot or let it be razed to the ground. The outcome was - capitol gone - and eventually due to a large sacrifice from Ix329, he and I managed to get rid of the titan and it´s followers.

Meantime, in the north I managed to get a dragon vassal, which served as the chokepoint for coming invasions, first from the theocrat Keldon, and at a later stage the forces of Hawk. These were repelled, the first, the theocrat Keldon, with great losses on my side:



The second defensive battle was more decisive as I had the benefit of mobility with shamans and hunters to attack 4v3, which led our enemies bleeding and their territory vulnerable to attack from the northwestern flank - even though that meant crossing an ocean.



In the south - our southeastern flank another decisive and roaring battle took place. Hawk´s leader and Tass´ leader joined forces and tried to gain the upper hand, but was defeated by solid teamwork from AlX and I. Tass´ forces was quite strong there, and we faced 4 horned gods plus another titan (as I recall it) down there. Luckily it ended to our benefit. Tass´ leader was sent to the void - and as his capitol was gone - it meant defeat for him, while Hawk´s armies were also smashed.



Due to our invasion of the NW flank that meant defeat for Hawk as well and after a few more turns, Keldon iniated a last suicide attack against Ix mighty phalanxes in the underground, which was lost, leader the like, and with no capitol after the raid in the north, victory was finally achieved.

Unfortunately, I don´t seem to have any good screenshots from Hawk´s early raid on my territory (weird that I don´t have these), only have a single screenshot where he ghouled some independent units with an elite death bringer quite early in the game.

Hmm, seems that Keldon has different opinion as he still is continuing <smiletext0> we'll respect his choice if that is what he wants <smiletext0> 

Published on Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:00:00 +0100

Hi AlX, was the last suicide attack before death, there is no longer any hope for us <smiletext1>

Published on Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:00:00 +0100

Very long and fairly balanced game: the military score graphics are all up and down.
We were a bit penalized by the initial geography whit a very very long undiggable water, but as he told Tasslehoff we also made mistakes so ....honors to the winners!<smiletext23>

Good game.

the end
Ok, it's over ... one of the longest pbem ever. We saw a lot of epic battle but I think we made some stupid mistakes and we lack of cooperation. Nice game guys.

WL Keldon, we can see you've restarted your turn - do you have any screenshots justifying it?

My restart...
Hi everyone, I actually did nothing regarding my restarted turn. I had not even started the turn before the game prompted to me that I was about to restart a turn. How can you make a screenshot of that? I made a screenshot of the prompt but guess that´s pretty uninteresting to post here...

AlX: It seems like you posted an old screenshot from our marathon game.

Cheers.

that was the first attempt to skim through that battle - I've actually did everything the same when I reload - the outcome was identical.

LOL, that's incredible, this game is full of bugs that are crushing all computers of "the rest of world. Jokes aside maybe it really is a bug that is in your game. <smiletext6>

A game restarted after a battle in not nice.
BTW, no problem ... but I don't understand how you didn't loose any units. Sometimes this game surprise me! :-)

Published on Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:00:00 +0100

to be honest also I had understood that you had done a restart because of your mistake, otherwise even I would not have played my turn. I do not know if a revert would put things right, most likely you would have started the turn before closing it.

Sorry.

Turn restart...
Hi everyone/Tasslehof, I´m a bit disappointed that you did not restart turn 43 as I asked for. But no worries, even though that misclick actually seems like I wanted you to win...

The misclick was not deliberate. Simply got a new PC with a quite sensible keyboard, so the declare war thing on my vassal happened without me wanting it to. Well, I should stop whining, just stating how things were. Have taken my turn 44 now btw.

Published on Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:00:00 +0100

there are no problems, it can happen, the important thing is to be honest, and above all that you let us win<smiletext1>

Cheers.

Restart needed...
Cheers, everyone. I did a quite stupid thing... Declared war on my most trusted vassal as I wanted to check a quest that have offered me. Basically just a misclick, but an expensive one. I would be grateful for a turn restart.

Here´s the screenshot (I did a bit of erasing not to spoil anything for my allies):
