Woah. Lots of dead guys.

Yeah who needs Mortality when you've got Heroes?

Kay got seriously wounded three times; that's gotta be some kind of record.
When Thalmarkans walked through the Sint land, castles went up for sale.

I'm partial to the "Grant" method: when you've got a problem, just keep throwing men at it until it's either not a problem anymore or you run out of men.

Damn it. You're reading the battle report and see that he's only got 40 of his 357 killer-horrors left at the end and then you check the region and find out he's actually got 220 left... bastards just won't die.

P.S.: Oh and this brings it to 110k CS that Overlord has ripped through. :)

So close and yet so very, very far  :-\

Losses for the horrors hava always been about 50% deaths and 50% wounds. Its about the same as for human troops really except that the wounded daimons all heal to the next battle.

Exactly. Basically, they don't have physical bodies. You can disrupt their forms enough that they can't continue fighting and need a while to reform themselves, which is what "wounded" indicates.

Grm... so all those skulls and bones we've gathered in Unger don't actually exist? :/

I think I'm going to keep them anyway, where's the fun in having nothing to show for your victories but your own soldiers' skulls and bones.. :P

Welp, can't say I didn't see that coming.

QuoteThe heroine Benedicta Marlboro of Thalmarkin (Dame of Vore, Thalmarkin) was killed by Overlord 's unit.

I've got the feeling Overlord is after everyone ever to be Vice Marshal of my army... :(

So, who's next?  ;D

Damn, too bad Kay got whacked thrice by Overlord's soulforged sword... I am getting the mental image of a guy crawling over to a lion to get mauled over and over and over, just to try and tire it out.

He'd have probably enjoyed baiting Overlord further  ;D

What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

I'm suprised there still troops left to throw at Overlord.

Well, the good news is that that unit he's leading is finally at a manageable size. If Thalmarkin can dig deep and pull off the same thing they did with Darkest Hour of the North, I think they've got a good shot. Especially if Fronen or Sint get in the game relatively soon.

Welp, can't say I didn't see that coming.

You got a nice eulogy though - courtesy of the Bard. What more could a hero ask for?  ;D
Silverfire: So who married Alice?
Woelfy: She's married to Hendrick Madigan
Silverfire: How much would it cost for someone to assasinate Hendrick Madigan for me

Sint is lols...  ::)

I think there are three of us in Pomatim, one in Winifael, three more in Kell... Everyone else is back in Keffa or Daisha.
