Dominions Decline 11: The Grimgrinch vs Christmas

[Joined on the 4th of July]

The rest, while frustrating, I could work with.

Meanwhile Niefelheim bullies and beats down their neighbors(how soon we forget Oceania) while people cripple a credible check on their power. Have fun losing to Grim again you guys.

Stop resisting, so we can move on to losing to Grimwulf phase.

It's just for rp purpose, I swear.

First they came for the Fish People, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Fish.

Then they came for the Fire people, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Fire person.

Then they came for the Demon Monkeys, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Demon Monkey.

Then they came for the Blood Orgy people, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not into blood orgies.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

That went unexpectedly well in light of the fact that I hadn't intended for that battle to happen at all.

The fact that he only had one arm(at the beginning of the fight no less) and managed to do all that is quite remarkable.

Don't worry, going AI.

You can't be serious, right?

You know, fighting two nations was a challenge and had the potential for fun. Four is overwhelming and it's hard to see the fun in a decidedly losing proposition. Also, whoever is doing it, just stop with the hurricanes. You've hit a 6 income province(that's with unrest at 4, btw) for several turns now. Knowledge of all those air gems wasted is hurting me more than the events.

Spoiler

No, of course not.

 

[Grimwulf]

I feel ya. Fighting three nations myself, and it's not fun at all, not with this timer. No interesting diplo situation (everything happens too fast, and just feels sporadic), no time to come up with creative ideas and complicated plots. That kind of pacing is just not my cup of tea, as it turned out.

The map only makes it worse. That's why I don't like full wraparounds - they just provoke global gangbangs.

I'd be happy to give away my nation to a random sub. But going AI isn't kosher, mang.

Before our presses are shut down, the Mictlan Observer would like to run an ad on one of this world's true enemies. Larger than Mictlan ever was, with a better bless, and no natural enemies. Owning and in fairly close proximity to all thrones needed for victory. Able to cloud trapeze the world over, at will, with ready made thugs. The sneaky elf:

This short advertisement paid for by the Don't Trust the Elves Society for a Better Mictlan.

 

[Grimwulf]

Even bigger than I imagined. Vanheim's crazy bless will be their downfall in the long run.

Spoiler

Unless they are going for an early Throne rush.

I have so bad scales that I need those few extra provinces to have an economy that doesn't completely suck.

That's just what the Sneakmaster in Chief wants you to think! He did get a +1 Order throne(who's penalty is cancelled out by the Iron Throne), and now has the +1 Growth throne.

A day in the life of the mod inspector. What the hell is gonna save my ass now? I'm leaning forest trolls, who needs an economy?

you could give me death gems and I'll put them to use against the Giant popsicles.

Allahu Akbar

You are fucking crazy dude. We are dignified blood users in Micltan. Not savage monkey demons.

Spoiler

Sending all my death gems.

I can't wait, celebrations already underway.

Auughh! So it begins... first dead vanjarl.

Rest in peace Fossil Kerrang who got frustrated by five earth elementals and ran away even though there was no way out.

 

[Isiloon]

Sent a scout to see what's inside Grimwulf's castle and I see this.

Why you'd put protection from arrows shield on the guy who's already fucked up I don't know Grim.

Grim's giants decided that they can't fight me in melee combat and opted to get pew pew lances so they can stand at the back and shoot like cowards.

 

[Grimwulf]

You are sort of a dummy, @Isoloon. But maybe you're just pretending to make me giggle, then it's ok.

That battle was epic. Vanjarl almost made it.

"Almost made it" is a bit of a stretch. He would have fatigued out. Cool fight though.

Yeah, he didn't have any reinvig gear. He was hoping to fight just some PD. Not some merc mage with 20 gems (wtf? my merc mage had a single pearl with him) in his pockets.

Even the odds are playing against you. You know, Grimwulf is unbeatable. Just accept your fate.

Spoiler

I hope you are fighting with him so my words make sense.

 

[Grimwulf]

He's not fighting me, but that doesn't matter. Your words never make sense anyway.
