Prelude to the second war: Ramblings of a crazy ghoul.....

And so it has come to pass. The once long and mighty battle leave little scars in the earth. A ghoul’s skull here. A sword there. A bow here. A tauren totem there. Once green, grass is beginning to grow again. The streams are clean of undead blood. But there is a familiar breeze blowing across the plains, a familiar rumble in the ice. The wind brings news, news which are unwelcome, but then again not unexpected. Far up north, there is talk of undead armies moving across the icy snowcaps. Westwards there are the not-soon-forgotten sounds of enormous drums. Eastwards there are sightings of woodland areas flush with activity. And from the forts of Men in the south, there are the tell-tale signs of smithies at work. There is no escape. The lands will once again be littered with the dead, their blood draining into the ground to nourish the trampled grass. The skies will crackle and burst with death and destruction. It is inevitable… all denizens of the land, natural or not will come together once again to proclaim their individual rights. There are even rumours of armies from forgotten lands eager to do battle with the best. A shaman from the lost temple has decreed, “Skies shall darken, land be stained with blood, forests burned to the ground, dust be made from rock. 2nd moon. 27th passing of the sun”

Even though playing against computer is fun but the best is still playing against human opponent.. the thrill and fun of outsmart and crushing your opponent is what make multiplayer gaming the best!! And it also prove to be the best for picking up new skill… after our one vs one (ghost vs psycho), I bet Nadrul is thinking hard now on how to counter my Orc's Ultimate Bloodlusted, Endurance Aura-ed and Berserked grunt+troll attack force… ; ) Nadzrul, any counter yet? I have just learnt a new N-Elves strategy that I couldn't wait to try on u… hehe… let the Treant shows it's POWER!!!

2 vs 2 session is pretty fun too.. With the 1st winning goes to psycho+yeha after successfull attack by the horde with help from yeha's Mountain King's led army and 2nd winning goes to ghost+david after an unsuccessfull tower rush attempt by psycho.. The game is pretty well over after the failed tower rush attempt which has taxed psycho too much resources to pump enuf Grunts to help yeha when being under-run by undead+elves combine force.. Miscommunication is also contribute to the lost of the 2nd match.. When 'canon' is being interprete wrongly by yeha ; ).. Yet the team still manage to create some fun by running over ghost's town with hordes of raiders..

Vs computer session is the best during 2 vs 3 computer (normal).. With Nadzrul using ton's of roaring Bear+ psycho's giant lembu Tauren's combo army, the team manage to turn the tide of war from the blink of losing to the glory of winning… !! Bloodlusted Tauren and Roaring Bear proved to be too much to handle even to the combine forces of 3 computer armies.. The team ripe thru their great armies and lay down a pool of blood to the barren land.. If only yeha and david is around to see the intensity and the glory of this battle… hehe…

Overall it was a good W3 party… the only complain is the venue really needs to be clean up… : )
