PREV Fall 16 Adjudication: NEXT

And the Land that the Knights Stand On is Rogue!
The Knights Yield the Field and Pass On But...

The Dwarven Fleet Goes Odysseus and Finds Fantastica (A New Home)

WAIT!? Trolls Know How to Convoy? Seriously? {Sigh} Still a Bad Fall to Be a Troll

Trolls Lose FOUR Under an Onslaught from the Ogres

Can Anyone Stop the Ogres? Were Elvish Scryers Right When They Foretold Ogren Dominance After

Being Abandoned by ALL Races When They Stabbed?

Okay...I know! I am probably carrying the "I told you so" too far but it IS a LOT of fun for me! What a game! I love the twists. You guys are putting on quite a battle.

To business - we have several retreats due:

Undead F To-Gai-Ru can retreat to ALL SAINTS BAY.
Troll F Enchanted Isles can retreat to BABEL BEACH.
Undead F ZEBOIMS DEEP can retreat to SAVAGE SEA or Pwyll (technically also ALL SAINTS BAY but

that is the ONLY option for F To-Gai-Ru so...)

Of course any of these can retreat OTB. Basically I will need one Undead retreat given that all of the others have one option.

The deadline for that is Sunday night at 8pm CST. I will be out of town for the weekend so I can't get it out sooner. From there we will have a quick deadline for Winter, Tuesday the 9th at 6pm CST. From there we will have an extended Spring 17 turn due to a player vacation (details on that with Winter).

PLEASE double-check. As you have no doubt noticed your GM is quite capable of mistakes!

NICK - thanks for filling in and fighting on until the end! On that note...a bit from our dearly departed Knight...

PRESS
Barring a miracle, goodbye from the Knights! This position was weak when I took it over, but I managed to stay alive by mending ties with the Archers as we fought off the Rogues/Faeries/Trolls. I tried to split up that trio, but only really got replies from Michael (the Rogues), and although there was willingness on both sides to find some solution, he was too committed already to an attack on me, and there was no real way for us to ally as long as he was unwilling to break his alliance with the Faeries.

To my surprise, the Trolls suddenly stabbed the Rogues, and a thin beam of light appeared at the end of the previously pitch-black tunnel. There was a critical moment when some Troll support in the top right part of the board could have shifted the balance to our side, as the Faeries and Rogues were relatively weak here and there was pressure from the underground on Dragons Teeth Mts. A breakthrough to Kingdom of Hearts could have allowed me and the Archers to hold on indefinitely. There wasn't much communication, and Warren decided instead to devote his units to the top-left part of the board in Anvard and Immoren, trying to destroy the Rogue position here. The Archers were knocked out, and then the top right part of the board from Cathal to Andarien Plain got rolled up by the Faeries/Rogues, and it was only a matter of time for the Knights.
