SkaForHire Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Warzone 8: The Battle for the Trade Lanes Location: L11 Who Can Participate: Ulandus and High Council (Unless A path is opened up by the Desert King before the end of the minichallenge) Terrain: This is the very tip of the Qar-Akhen River Delta, the wetlands often change, and there is no solid ground for long. The deep swamps have reeds and small trees, but usually nothing large. This zone is also part of the Great Southern Ocean. There are few outer islands that stand beyond the delta, some of these have rudimentary lighthouses to help guide ships to Ras-El-Akhen or into the river so that they may journey to Qarkyr. The location is important because it helps control river traffic, and troop supply. History: This region has been part of the maritime trade-ways longer than there has been a written language to record the ships that have passed by and up the Great River of Life. Although no major settlement is within this region, it has always been important strategically. Mini-challenge: Whereas large armies really cannot make their way through the swamps, and large troop transports try to avoid the shifting outlets of the river unless they have to, this battle will be fought by small parties. The High Council is looking to expand out from Ras-El-Akhen, and fight back against the large Ulandian wave that has engulfed the Southern Coast. Small boats travel amongst the reeds to take out temporary camps of First Centurion’s men within the delta. At Sea, the Ulandians dominate, as their navy has dispatched many small water craft to the region to stop all merchants and determine their loyalties. The builders should depict a battle within the reeds of the delta, or just offshore in the slightly deeper waters. It should be clear that your side has won the battle. Secondary judging category: Best water. Winner of this title will become “Aquanaut of Kaliphlin” Restrictions: High Council: 16x16 Ulandus: 32x32 Due Date: April 19th WARMAP318 by skaforhire, on Flickr Quote
Yzalirk Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Another one involving Ulandus? Seems like we have to get busy! Quote
Adair Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 What! 16x16 for us and 32x32 for them?!? How is that fair? And the early deadline... Ugh. Not that I don't appreciate your work and all, I just think this one is being tipped toward their side a little bit, especially the size restrictions... Quote
SkaForHire Posted March 27, 2015 Author Posted March 27, 2015 You are right. I did that to give Ulandus an advantage because so far they have not been able to produce many builds. I think this makes it a little bit more challenging for the HC, while giving Ulandians a little more freedom. Since it is currently a blank spot, no one loses VP if they lose, so I thought this was the right place to try this strategy of "balancing" We can't really do that on the 3 way battles. If we look at the current trend though, Ulandus is having a really hard time, and that is not the fault of the five people that have been building continuously. Quote

I'm also more glad that you see it that was as well as myself. Hearing this is much more relieving. Unless the High Council wishes to complain despite they've had it easier than us, than so be it. Ulandus will show no mercy to these High Council degenerates! Quote
Adair Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 Anywho, here's my entry: did the best I could with the restrictions... And yes, it is fair, though my point of view would be to do it against the dessert King, since they have the most members and have won three out of the four WZs so far... whatever. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=107847#entry2184641 Let the nameless Arise; Leander Guerrillas attack some Ulander soldiers.

robuko Posted April 5, 2015 Posted April 5, 2015 my point of view would be to do it against the dessert King, since they have the most members and have won three out of the four WZs so far... whatever. The HC has the most members, and the DK started 7 points behind the other 2 teams. You are very welcome to join the DK forces. As we have repeatedly said, we have no quarrel with the High Council and offer all members a better life, on better terms, than they had before the rightful King was restored. Quote
