Turn one Conquest of Myrimdens

Turn one events were determined in reverse order of territory selection…one might think Usharon the ghoul king allowed his necromancer to fail.
Land and Mike – building boom – and immediately built a monument in praise of the vermin king.(allowing an additional hero in all battles)
Matt and Craig – elite Army – arriving late to the battle but they brought only their elite to fill their ranks (one additional special choice this round and a minimum of only one core unit).
Lake and Larry – land grab – the beast men fleeing their from the dwarves and high elves might of been a clever ruse to get more territory as thy run across the neutral territory to join the wood elves (the first tile they take this round costs one less empire point)
Cole and Kieran – diplomacy – after the dwarves smashed the beastmen in early encounter decided why can’t we be friends (no challenges or bad events from lake and Larry this round)
Allan and Leigh – Scouts – the fast moving elves ponies have their eyes everywhere (+2 to rolls for choosing sides, deployment, and going first)
Stu and Ian -all or nothing – confident in their men on the field of battle all they care about is victory building their empire (plus 1 empire points for victories this round but no victory points for losses)

Arrival in the Myrmidens

With the fall of the prince of Myrmidens the horns of war rang out across the old world as armies prepared for war! Diplomats travelled quickly between realms as all felt two armies were better than one. Spring weather slowed half the fleets and only those closest made it in time for the initial landing to battle for a foothold in this realm.
Vampire counts, high elves, wood elves, beast men, dwarfs, and lizardmen warbands met on the field of battle, all making and breaking promises as quickly as they could.
Some highlights or should I say low lights in this case; it must of been an overcast day as the solar engine on the back of the bastilidon struggled to channel the sun in to anything but a meager beam if that. The high elves sent their dressage court performing Calvary it seemed at first from the way they danced back and forth until everyone felt they were not a threat and one unit of silver helms reformed into a dart and drove their lances home into the heart of the necromancer leading an ever growing unit of skeletons and stomped him with their prancing ponies hooves. This unit of sleketons still managed to chase away the silver helms but with out the necromancers magic they were slow to chase, and struggled to stay together till they crumbled to dust.
One would of thought that the beast,en and wood elves were aligned with how their warbands fought together holding down one flank of the battle field. Maybe it was the dwarves were to much of a threat and proved that true with the amount of ‘Gor’ they spilt on the battlefield that day.
In the end the lizardmen proved the champions of the day with few casualties, despite a zombie conga line trying to sweep over them.
