Well thing went from bad to worse. Dark blue did attack me as I expected. However I just sent drillers to help on my other flank and he immideatly launched an attack. He has about125 drillers heading my way. He is going to take 2 of my 4 factories. This game is not going well. I have rallied orange and brown so I may at least get revenge. The front on light blue is holding. It was eerie how he just put more and more drillers twards my outpost and I expreced concern but he just said nothing and moved a few more my way. No one has a mine yet so that is very interesting. If you have any tips on how not to die it would be appreciated.

I think things are turning around. So first this is first. Purple was eliminated. Because now brown is available to help me fight light blue. Light blue has left himself open to an attack. I see an end for light blue if brown strikes hard enough. And I think I can deal with dark blue. I have shuffled around some drillers and I will be able to take back 1 of my factories leaving dark blue with about 50 drillers left. And it gets better. My specialist hires are realy good. I have a choice between a foreman, martyr, and a pirate. They are all good so I am a little sour that I will lose the other 2. I will probably hire a martyr to Finnish off the rest of blue. I have also rallied orange who now has subs on his way to dark blue. Hopefully with all of these events I should start regaining ground.

I'm on the slope of defeat. It rolls ever closer, Or do I roll to it? I find myself falling on old habits that alsways end in the same result. I am not an aggressive player in games and subterfuge is no exception. However I am comming to the realization that this doesn't work in this game. I'm to cautious but when I hesitate my opponents strike. I am slowly losing outposts. Very slowly. But when you only have 6 outposts and 2 of those are factories it is devastating. And the worst part about my type of defense is that I don't get revenge. They just move in and massacre my crumbling ruins and I pass on to legend. Anyway both blues are still laser focused on me. I hope my allies get a chance to strike while they are weak. Maybe then my death can have meaning.

P.S. I'm not dead yet

Here is my current situation. I at least have an ace or two left. One is a martyr and the other would be an assist from my allies. Hopefully they can help.

Indeed. But Renember im not dead yet. A got my aces. I also have a hope the riders of Rohan (brown and orange) shall come at the last moment and come to gondors aid and with the battle of pelinor fields. The beacons are lit. It is now in the hands of Rohan to decide my fate. Let us not fall into the trap denathor fell into. That didn't end well for him.

P.S. If you couldn't tell I have a slight obsession with Tolkien.

join me.

The ride for ruin has come. Alexcata has a king and a sub with 111 drillers hunting light blues queen. He also has a helmsman and will catch up soon. And dark blue is starting to receive pressure from brown and orange. In fact brown sent me a gift sub however he launched it right after I moved my drillers away. Dark blue had an attack heading that way and I was going to lose but with Browns help I would have won. I have been hasty and I missed out on the rewards. Hopefully light blue will be emimenated soon. I am just about to lose my factory to him.

My demise is getting closer however I beleve I can do mine more thing. I was going to lay a trap for R10t--. When he attacked with his massive army I would have hired a martyr and ran away. However he is to cunning to fall for that. He sent half or his drillers to my escape location and the other half to my queen. He will not win but I would almost be spent. So a better use of my martyr is now in place. I have it on its way to his mine. Unless he has a pirate he will lose that mine and though I may be dead R10t-- might not win. This is a losing battle for me but I can make my death as annoying as possible. Also alexcata has his driller army at the outpost and could catch up to him but he has not attacked. That is a bit odd but hopefully he can eliminate turnout before I die.

Can you list the current rankings? GO R10t!!! Hes my partner in the 2v2 league.
