Has he friends nearby? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dave Inci stood near the collection box in the Temple of Geoff. He = scanned round the temple to double check it was empty and then sidled = closer to the box. Suddenly he heard the soft footsteps of an Initiate = approaching through the back corridor. 'Damn, better scarper quick", he = thought as he upended the half full box into his shirt.=20 'Must be close to fifty silver in here', he guessed from the sound of = the coins clinking. 'Hey, you there', came a voice from behind. 'What are you doing with = that box? Stop thief!' The last came as he sprinted through the temple doors and ran for his = palace.=20 He knew his advisors would chastise him for the theft, after all they = hardly needed the money, not with their wealth, but he still loved the = thrill of the act. He wondered if he was a kleptomaniac... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stealthy little buggers... glad it wasn't one of my units hit. Glad I wasn't doing the hitting, neither. Yes, that's right! A full real year as a WM faction and I have attacked no one! Nor shall I for, oh, probably another year. I appreciate: spell lists monster lists help re dangerous / not dangerous hexes, cities I really don't appreciate: repeated Times ads- in the same issue!- for services I can't afford (it's the repeating that really gets me) feeling the need to flee Atlantis City just after it's allegedly gotten safer fearing to explore lest I be ambushed by monsies the very first turn I do so, and lose the only container (er, sorry, unit with lots of money ;) ) I have Neutral towards: those neat&wacky names the cities have a Simpsons spell? (I love that show...) -1039/es19@cornell.edu/http://www.geocities.com/Vienna/1489 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Looks like 6 more factions dropped this turn.

Peace seems likely, but can cooler heads prevail as the competition for territory increases?

Planned as a strike by a force of superior numbers and superior magical support, the attack unexpectedly took a turn when allied mages appeared in battle for the defense. What was originally planned as a solid grab for the town of Suide by Unidad Total quickly became a rout. The superior quality of NAA forces overcame the overwhelming numbers of UT forces. Losses for UT totaled 300 out of the 340 while NAA lost only 2. At the same time, UT forces were estimated to consume nearly 200 potions of healing. "We have many more where those came from" commented a UT official. "And we will strike back harder." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NPR Spells Exchange ------------------- The Atlantis City Spells Exchange has fallen into disrepair, so the NPR are re-establishing it.
