A dark elven hero is in the tunnels with his spider queen friends taking my towns and mines.

ooc: I accidentally clicked cancel when ending my turn so I had to send it manually.

Goblins, Day 71

The dwarven leader has been defeated. The ranged units fired at our bombers, which gave the other units time to breach the walls and surround them.

Screenshots of the ending histograms? We defeated want to see them and bask in our futility.

Btw, how the heck did you guys handle the Dark Elves. I've now played single player as the Humans up to Day 58 and I still have the same three towns I had on Day 6 of our game. My units are stronger and I am almost ready to push the Purple player back towards his hole, but geez, what a slog. I've had seven stacks of enemy units in my vision range the last 40 turns.

In other words, I'm really impressed you were able to win in 70 days given equivalent starting positions and abilities! Nicely done Potato Head!

I don't know about anyone else but I didn't have much interaction with the dark elves until the end when the goblins were coming in on one side and the dark elves on the other.

When the dark elves came in they came in fairly strong though. Their hero was travelling with 4 spider queens, a glutton (possessed by an incarnate) and an executioner. There were probably other stacks on the way that I didn't see because I was losing all my towers and outlying towns.

I meant to continue and kill Findarin (this could drag on for a while), but when I sent the game to myself after about 3 turns later, I get black screen, waiting for independents to move, and everytime I reload, I'm sending the game to myself. That's why I didn't post any information.

It would probably be difficult to deal with death storms if I continued, but Findarin always cast it on my cities (which had sanctuary), so maybe I could just walk in with my 10 phoenixes and 8 Kharaghs and capture city after city. I had a good income and troll factories as well, including a teleporter.

On my side of the map, I felt quite safe actually and didn't fight against Findarin until much later because I didn't create tunnels until much later and I don't think Findarin could create tunnels himself. I decided against creating tunnels, after seeing 4 independent Kharaghs right next to my captial.

We'll need to start up a new one since one game at a time isn't enough for a PBEM game. :)
