 Hello lads, welcome back to lastria. Before I get into the episode, I would just like to say that I actually make this video a few hours after I made the previous video and the caffeine. By the old father, coffee is one hell of a drug, I'm still feeling quite hyped indeed, so yeah, for those of you who missed this in the last episode I said that I had taken a coffee after a good few weeks without any coffee at all. And the effect is much higher once you have gone off coffee as opposed to before when I drank coffee on a regular basis. So I just want to say that for your interest. And also I have been to the gym, did three by three squats at 180kg and push press three sets of six repetitions at 90kg. And then obviously I had a shower and a hot shower, actually usually I have cold showers, but since I had a coffee I thought I wanted to relax and calm down a bit. And usually when I have my cold showers I feel a bit more energetic, but now I want the opposite so I can sleep tonight. So the caffeine doesn't take away all possibilities of sleep. Anyway, with that being said let's get into the episode at hand. So we got mugged by these Chad high elves unfortunately, but we have to go back in deal with Syd, the dark elf rebels. So we're gonna head back to do that. We can do something fun with our monetary gains and what I think about doing is actually building a gold mining. Once extracted from the mountains gold is smelted into bars or even minted into coins and that will give us 1200 gold each turn. That is absolutely massive, so some advice if you play total war is growth in the beginning and then as soon as you can get the income. Because that obviously will allow us to build things and to recruit better units. So boom, gonna go do like that and see what the crack is next turn. Haha, look at that! It seems that we might get our vengeance sooner than expected. Okay, we have Vigorim battle tired. That is a setback of course, but we do have our black arc, so I can't run away. So we have to take this battle. And now obviously I'm hoping very much indeed that I can actually redeem my performance in the last episode. So we get this revenge because this is obviously... I hope that the title of this particular video can be vengeance on the high elves or something like that. But we will see what the crack is once we get into the battle. And now obviously I have the advantage that they have to come to me since they are the aggressors. They are initiating this particular boxing match. So yeah, we have a still a good setup. A units look here is almost full health. And he is obviously a better one-on-one fighter than Sheldilon here. I can just assume. Because he has his ultimate dualist or some such epic ability. And then Armanticor, still alive, not all too much in health. So we'll have to be quite careful with him. He'll probably stay behind the battle lines and then be deployed at some stage when everyone else is also engaged. So I'm just gonna place you there. And I'm quite satisfied with this battle line as it looks at the moment. So yeah, not much to it. Let's get into it. Loker, epic horn there, reminds me of Battle of Helms Deep. Which reminds me, I haven't watched Lord of the Rings in a good while. That's absolutely blasphemous obviously. In an ultimate world you would watch Lord of the Rings at least once a year. I haven't done so. Busy times, busy times, hopefully things will calm down in a bit. I don't suppose they will, but anyway. So, I suppose we'll speed up the battle here. And we have three each of these supporting spells from the ship. And that is, if anything, what can turn the tide. As you can see there, they are outnumbering us quite a bit. We can actually have a look at what is up here. Lord and Seagod, really great units. Spearmen decent enough and they do have some Illyrian Reavers. Which is not good at all because we don't have any spearmen that can counter that. Maybe we can actually have our manticore deal with them. Now the skirmishing begins. Boom. Ah, they are indeed quite dangerous. And there comes the cavalry. I should of course have anticipated that. I'll try to intercept with my units there. Now, let's see if we can do something fun with the manticore. Maybe he can actually attack. Bring me slaves. Boom, okay cool. I'm gonna try to charge them. They will probably get shot to bits there. But that will take away the pressure from the other units. Maybe just a bit at least. Now let's see, where do we have other... Okay, we still need to break this guys. Lukir, have you killed your enemy? No, you have not. You will have to do that quite soon if this battle is supposed to go our way. And now obviously... Yeah, I don't think we will redeem ourselves in this battle. So we'll have to do it next time I suppose. Our manticore has disappeared. Defend Ulthuan could have that on a t-shirt instead of Defend Europe. Defend Ulthuan. No, Defend Europe on a t-shirt works equally well. Spoken of which, I have written an article. The latest one on thegoldenone.se regarding the latest clothing. So check that out if you want to read a bit about the company and the clothes. Definitely a good article if I may be so bold of course. Now if we can just get a good bombardment in there, I would be very happy. That was a good hit, it was a really good hit. Boom, I am happy about that. Now what I don't want to happen of course is that Lukir gets wounded. So hopefully he will be routed last. Okay, yes he will. Okay, so close. Aha, we did lose our entire army. That is not particularly good at all. I have completely ruined our plans for this campaign. No I have not, it's absolutely fine. It's just that I suppose we'll have to wait a while until we get the revenge on these lads. Wounded, okay. And I am playing on very hard for anyone. So you don't think I am a complete noob getting beaten in two battles in a row. So anyway, we'll have to choose another lord. So we have a dark supreme sorceress. Disciplined, that's good enough. Confident, leadership 2 plus all units in the army, that's good. Cruel, income from raiding, I don't really raid all too much I suppose. Malicious, construction costs minus 40% for cult of cane or cult of pleasure buildings. The cult of pleasure, that's our enemies of course. Okay, no I do think I want... So four turns until the kraken lord is back. I do actually want this discipline. Leadership and melee attack will be good for our... So we will have to use this sorceress until our gallant leader is back. I am just gonna borrow these items from him until he is back. I do hope he does not mind that we take his stuff while he is in the hospital. So anyway, they will probably try to do something against us. So we obviously have to build some stuff. But first we will see if we can build something here. Yes we can, growth, boom. And then we'll see about recruiting. So that's all we can do and yeah, we'll take the turn. All right, so I took two turns. And lo and behold, what has happened? We have been sieged by his boss, and thus we didn't recruit his units. Weakness cannot be tolerated. That will actually have to be the name of this episode. Absolutt epic. Senoria, it looks like she wants to get our settlement there. Absurd. I think you do, dear lady. I think you do indeed. So we'll have to set the pace higher. Okay. This is of course a battle I don't really want to take since I suppose I will get absolutely wrecked considering the units. We'll try at least because we need to defend our other settlement against the high elves. So as you can see their units are a bit better. They have three cavalry units. They have a bull thrower or actually four cavalry units. And then they have witch elves who are obviously very good in close combat. And we have corsairs and crossbows. We do have Jorian. I don't know exactly how potenti will be in the magic department, but I suppose we'll figure out. All right, let us just encamp here and see what is up. Okay, so the balance of power is not in... Okay, now it is evening out. We still have our magic from the ships, so that is something that we'll have to use. Oh, look at that. We actually have a deathhag. How nice. And the scenery. Absolutely love it. This is exactly why I think it's so epic this game. To definitely get the feel of being in the jungle and fighting for treasure and glory. Now then, let's see what we can do. I don't want to use any of these while the enemy is still moving because then I might miss. So I'm gonna wait a bit until we get into close combat. Our spearmen will actually have to hurry up a bit so we can intercept their cavalry. And yeah, their flying units are getting wrecked. That's joy just to see. Now we're gonna throw some magic as well. Not the best throw there I'm afraid. Okay, let's get at them boys. Actually everyone can just charge in there including the deathhag. Right, they're running away. Good. Try again with some magic. Perfectly cast their droopy. Show a spell there as well. And no, don't move away now. Ah, good. Perfect. I can't really see all too much in the forest but anyway. Okay, that didn't look all too well. Try another magic there. Boom, there we go. That's better. Right, dark shards. Get these cavalry lads before they can get in a charge. Or they wreck our sorceress there. Okay, deathhag. You will have to go in there. So this is actually... If I manage this correctly we can win this battle. Now our special ability, murderous prowess, is kicking in. And that's obviously very good to have. What can we do here? Soul rain, taking on you. And hopefully you will stand still until we... I take so long to damn, we miss them. That was silly. I suppose this battle is a bit chaotic. Of course you can't really see everything that is happening. But I will try to make some sort of cool cinematic thing at least. I can't do it for too long though because I want to... I do want to win this battle. All though truth be told, it... Don't know if it looks all too promising at the moment. But you never know. We can just keep bombarding them with all sorts of magic. Boom, there we go. Hello lads. I heard you like magic. And they can't move, that's nice. Det didn't really do all too much to be honest. That spell. Aha, I can't control her, she's been gone rampage. And the target is too close there. Now we can do it. Okay, but I'm hoping by the way that I'm a somewhat good commentator when it comes to these battles. When I streamed on Twitch before I was a bit bad at commentating at the same time as I was doing the actual battle because I didn't want to divert my attention all too much. But I suppose if I can't do that then I'm not an all too good commentator. Now we're going to take a last spell there. Boom, okay, that's better. Now they should be routed. I don't see where they have any more units. Ha, there we are. I have redeemed myself somewhat. I obviously need to redeem myself against the high elves because this was mere rebels and not the glorious sons of Ulthuan. So yeah, but good that we got these guys out of our way at least. Now I just hope that they won't siege us again because whenever they siege us we can't recruit units. Oh, look at that bounce spell. Thank you very much. Thank you for the black staff right there. So yes, we can't really attack them again. So what we do is going actually trying to recruit some units aboard this ship and then transfer it because then it doesn't matter if they siege us or not. So here we go, recruit units and these are good boys. And I will try to recruit locally as well in case they do not siege. But we will be prepared to lose this settlement and we might get the chance to redeem ourselves at least. We can actually upgrade this. We want to do that. I suppose that can be a good idea because the next step is reaper pole thrower which is a really solid choice. So I'm going to take the turn and maybe another turn. As intimidating as it is. Fear the being that wears it. Ok, lords skrollbra, klansspittle. We have gotten a good deal. And he is our friend after all. Aha, no, that was silly of me. I actually had a trade agreement with them. What we'll do is to... We're not going to take this battle. I could probably have done it but I don't want to spend all of this episode losing against high elves. So we'll auto resolve that. It probably won't matter all too much in the long run. Ok, so there you go. Besidging oss, as I expected them to. She is leveled. I will upgrade chillwind because we will get into battle again. We'll actually auto resolve that. We're going to murder those captains. Ok, cool. Then what shall we do? We can go down here and prepare for... We could actually take a seat at the dusk directly. It's one thing we could do. We can level here as well. Bladewind, boom, that's great. That's a great spell. I will showcase it when we get into the battle. We have a good financial situation indeed. And now we have some more choices here but we're still going to go with this. Guys, and there we are. So 11 plus four here is a 15. Then we have a full stack and we can move in. So I'll take the turn and another turn and then we can fight again. All right, I took the turn and they reconquered this settlement. And that's ok. And then also Luke is back in action. So we can recruit him here I suppose. Or we can recruit him here. It is all a matter of preference I suppose. What we should definitely do is... She will actually have to lead the charge here anyway. We will recruit once more there and then what we'll do. So we can upgrade Dark Citadel. So Luke here will actually have to wait another turn in order to get back. Unless of course we do that now. Krakenlord, because he will after all be better suited to lead this army. Then also we can do something fun here. Charged piracy, upkeep. Minus 5% for black arc crosshair units. Perfect. The great vortex is under attack my lord. The winds of magic shriek and eddy about it in strange formations. For a mighty ritual is under way in some distant land. The power of the ritual pulls and distorts the vortex. Yet there remains a chance to intervene. Find the whereabouts of those that channel the ritual. And attack before it's completion my lord. Control of the vortex must not fall into enemy hands. Absolut epic voice if anything. Klan Morse har gjort det. Så vad vi ska göra nu? Jag tror att vi ska merga med flera där. Aha, okej. Och sen tror jag att vi ska göra något i lagen. Vi kan inte merga dem än. Men vad vi kan göra är att sätta dem där och loka dem. Trya att merga dem. Okej, vi kan faktiskt merga dem. Boom, perfekt. Right. Du har varit bra, Jorian. Men du måste gå nu. Så vi kan höra vår inkomst där. Så nu är vi... Perhaps hopefully we can... We can actually get these bustage. There we are. And now our gold smelter has been completed. So now we see our upkeep is quite high. Even though we have a large and glorious army there. So they are recruiting. But what we can do is... We can actually upgrade this. And that only takes one turn. And that is absolutely great. So the next turn we will have a better ability. Soul torrent instead of soul rain. Or Cain's flail instead of Cain's lash. So probably go with Cain's flail. That sounds cooler at least. And that's always a good indicator of something's usefulness. How cool it sounds. Now of course. We have two possibilities. One is charging here. But they do have a garrison here. A quite high level. Because they are level 3 11 colony. Or we can go here where they have a depleted garrison. And I actually do think it's better that we can take these two settlements. Or we can complete this place again. If I can reach it. No I can't. I can almost reach it. But I think that will have to be for next episode. So that we have a guaranteed fight. Or I could just take it. That's more epic. So this will be an episode where we have no less than three battles. That would be quite glorious indeed. Then I hope... Will I do hope that we... Aha. I got interrupted. I was going to say that I don't hope that we steamroll them. But now I actually do hope that we would have done so. No there's no chance that we can get all of these guys. They are outnumbering us quite a bit. Retreat. Aha. They still want to box. All right. I suppose we'll have to... Sorry to beat these guys anyway. All right we're in the battle. And yeah we can just start and see what happens. Gonna advance a bit I suppose. We can take coverage in this forest. The high health units are stronger than the dark health ones. And they are outnumbering us so... I am not all too sure that we could actually take this battle I'm afraid. But you never know. We can try some sort of flanking maneuver at least. We could definitely use some bolt. Bolt trövers in this army. That will allow us to dictate the pace a bit more. As it is right now. I think they have a missile superiority even though half our army is a missile unit. So okay there it begins. All right let's not wait anymore. We can advance. Otherwise we will get wrecked at the distance. All right get it boys. Now let's see. And everything we have. Get it boys. Now if I am not that talkative. It's for the beautiful reason of that I'm trying to concentrate. To the extent that I might actually win this battle. I wouldn't hope for too much though. But look at this. Look at this. Melvin is actually fleeing and Luke is coming at him. What an absolute bastard who flees and leaves his troops to these drukshy madcans. And this is absolutely beautiful. They are packed. There. Which means that our magic is very potent. Die weaklings. Drukshy they do not appreciate weakness. I think this is a reasonable course of action. To not appreciate weakness. Look at this. I think it could go this well. I won't take out anything in advance. But looking better than I thought. And we do have of course our black arc. That is aiding us. Boom there we go. Absolutely joyous if anything. I have some units here for some reason. I must have chased some of the heils away I suppose. Kill everything. Okay. Yeah this battle looks great. This is the greatest battle of all time. It looks like I will get my revenge. Unless something blasphemous happens. They have a cenoria, the princess there. And look here you know what to do. Ah look at that. We have the thumbnail of the video. She got absolutely wrecked. Feminists blown the fuck out. Great absolutely awesome. Then I got my revenge and I'm happy that I actually took this battle in this episode after all. So yeah absolutely prosperous. We will enslave them. So that they can work on my gold mine. Or in my gold smelt that we have completed. So yeah as usual. Comment. Comment what you have trained or what you will train. Always a good thing to comment. So thank you for watching. XOXO. Boom.
