Freyr and his lads are right there to lend a hand. Just have to mop the floors a bit...

In a bit, after everyones had their celebrations, is it possible to open up the faction forums for everyone? I'm really interested in seeing what everyone else was discussing at various times and what special projects they were working on.

There was a couple of times we Dawi were feeling a bit tense about what was going to happen, only for everyone else to ultimately go off in different directions. At one point we thought there was going to be an early rush at Ankor Drakk, and instead no one came close.

Well done Dwarves! Congratulations on first place, you played an almost flawless campaign and definitely deserved the position. At first it seemed like you were playing it a little cautiously but now I see that it was all part of the master plan! You did well to concentrate on the centre of the mountain, it really gave you mobility and the ability to respond quickly. It's kind of ironic that the dwarves were more mobile than the greenskins. Just goes to show how much of a difference good strategy makes! Also I loved your sneaky move of moving everything out of Mingol Varr, very nice and a fun suprise!

The humans also did very well despite being the smallest faction by far, falling back and striking when appropriate. Also your stealing of Mount Bloodhorn's treasure was a stroke of brilliance! Congrats!

I am actually pretty happy with our record too, although I am a little bummbed about third place. But we made some small mistakes and one big one (which I instigated, unfortunately) and paid the price. But I proud to say we played like greenskins and didn't back down in the face of petty tactics. Also we did fight both factions at the same time, something that was definitely not the smartest move was the most fun!

Thanks to everyone who participated, I had an absolute blast! I can't wait to do it again!

And of course a huge thank you to DS, you put in a huge effort and made a really memorable campaign and you did it all on your own! Incredible! Thank you very much!

P.S. I second the idea of opening up the secret forums, I am really curious as to what was going on!

I must say I loved the Raid. I just got the idea and Atlas helped out by wording how it should be set up.

I was scared Spiney and Atlas and Allicat would object but after Atlas helped me clarify what I wanted to do and how it should be arranged we went all in.

And we had this fine Muster Ground awaiting the raider forces when they returned so we could regain strength and swing south for our main objective.

I had the theme from Kellys Heroes playing in my head while waiting to see the results. That moment was one of the best in the campaign, and dammit, I love playing mercenary now. Helps you think in a different way.

And damn you Kaptain and your cunning shenanigans! You messed things up bad for us. But hey, you never expected the Homeguard! No, see, them orcies are afraid of our steel, zee! They don´t like it up´em, zee!

We were pretty amazed when Da Kaptain suddenly showed up on the west side. Through pure luck we'd just sent two armies to take Bar Drakk in the same turn that he snuck through to attack it. We won through lucky numbers, and voila suddenly he was trapped on the west coast. Although he put it to good use, raiding up and down the mountain and Monte Castello.

Glad to hear everyone enjoyed themselves !

Ok, so here's the thing; apparently I planned the end of the campaign to happen at the exact same time as a crisis at work, plus a bunch of real life drama (nothing serious, just annoying). I've written about half the fluff, and will have time to do more tomorrow, but today I had to deal with a lot of other stuff.

So, a little more patience please!
