Posts to the game:

Despite of me screwing up a lot at the home front (losing a full stack to ruins and misclick-declaring on my vassal), my main stack was able to snowball enough (through animal evolving and befriending, inns and dungeons) to overwhelm the enemy. That was fortunate, since my economy really wasn't all that great. Once again my scouting was denied pretty effectively, in fact I wouldn't have even known my main stack was on my enemy's doorstep if he hadn't told me so on the chat In the end we did a duel with our leaders just for fun, which turned out not to be as epic as it sounds, since the attacking leader fled the fight in both tries, and overall the AI made some very strange choices in those fights. Clearly the autocombat AI is not designed for leader duels. :p Thanks for a good game once again!

@Hili: I only could have retreated with the halfling units but I chose to try and free the hero for a retreat (since one hero is worth an infinite amount of useless halflings). All I would have needed was for one of them to *not* fumble their attack, but alas, they all did. So they definitely deserved their deaths.

@Badok: I'm out of town without my laptop (repainting my parent's house) and won't be able to play my turns until tuesday night / wed morning. Sorry for the delay.

Nice one! I got something very similar in the 4x2 game I did some time ago https://www.the-battlefield.c... (you can see the screenshot in the report) and the Warlord hero stayed there as independent for the rest of the game as I never went back as it would have lost me precious movement.
Unlike you, I recognized the fight was lost and retreated with what I had left so I didn't lose everything.

Yeah, mind-control from the AI can be devastating and that specific defender set from Ancient Ruins is very dangerous.
But it's good that you got that result, it shows you're taking risks to clear faster, and it's also a good lesson.

I have to post this here, too hilarious not to. This is how you (don't) clear sites like a pro.



Lessons learned:
-Don't play when tired as hell
-Don't rush fights just to get them over and done with
-Always assume every enemy charm works 100%
-Don't sacrifice your entire army just to free a charmed hero, and then fail to even free him
-Don't play useless halfling gimps

Posting the screenshot of my crash here. Sorry for the IM notification. My first ever AoW3 crash. :/
I'll do everything the same way I did before the crash, hopefully will get the same lucky procs too

PBEM duel (tourney rules)
Looking for a player of any skill level for a PBEM duel with a tournament map and rules as described in https://www.the-battlefield.com/aow3/index.php?page=rules&tourneyid=6

I can start anytime and will be able to play at least one turn per day (barring special circumstances), probably even more.

I will probably pick a less-played combo, you're ofc free to pick anything.
