ORCISH ARMS


Orcs Massacre Legions!

	Orc armies marched on two volcanic regions, massacring the Legions found 
there in.  Battles elsewhere saw numerous other enemy slain for little Orc 
Losses.
	Some of Orc troops marching on central shire of Green Flame ran into ten 
Legions.  Some five hundred and eighty warriors lead by four hero swept 
Legions aside before Legions could react.  The troops then join up with 
other warriors to attack central shire.
	The combined force total six heroes and around one thousand four hundred 
troops.  This include two hundred crossbowmen, sixty dartmen, 70 Orc Archers 
and half a dozen catapults.  They were met by almost one hundred Legions, 
prepared for battle.
	The heroes let off barrage of spells; bog and wind to hinder enemy, while 
others enhanced troops strength, toughness, speed and life, making them 
formidable warriors.  Taking advantage of this, the ranged troops open up a 
mighty barrage, ripping the Legions apart with ease.  The Legions not 
expecting this were all killed before they could respond.
	Scouts report that around three hundred and fifty more Legions are in 
Domain of Control, and the army expects a bloodier battle when they emerge.
	In underground, another army advanced into Purple Flame where 60 Legion and 
16 Ice Beats waited.  The orc army numbered two heroes and around one 
thousand one hundred warriors.  Of those, almost seven hundred were ranged 
troops.  As with the early battle, the Orc army ripped the Legions apart 
with ranged attacks before they could respond.
	Other battles saw three troll, two hobgoblin and five astral predators 
destroyed in the Astral plane for no losses, while twenty five more Legions 
and one Ice Beast were slain in Voptra for the loss of three warriors.

Castle Expanded!

	After a long period of work, consuming large amount of stone, the castle at 
Nightscar has been expanded again.  Much larger and better defended, it 
allow new troop types to be raised.  These are Giant Beetle Riders, 
reasonably tough mounted units, though expensive, and Bronze Dragons.  The 
Dragons are very tough, better than any other known troop type, but are very 
expensive as well.  It is expected large numbers will begin to be raised 
soon.
