Day 47

So the troops are recovering.  They are having nightmares from their attack on the MD and I think it's going to last another 4 days or so!  Poor troops.  Well my one army is pretty useless in MA now cause they have -25% fire resistance along with -20% survival rate.  So working on my buildings for the next bit.

I was able to upgrade my zerkers and wolves to level 3.  That is cause I was off of Aloriah for about a day. Got my first 20 hr offline bonus buff for the first time this round.  Think that means that I have been playing too much...

I have huge armies in DS and MM now so I'll be sending them out to go close some dragon gates, and explore the ruins.  Also made it back on the first page of rankings today!  Good to be back on top again ;)  Made the achievement Wood Clever or something like that on gold.  Which is 50k chopped wood.  Thanks to my armies in MA for that one.

I'm thinking lately that besides an army in DS to collect diamonds and close dragon gates I should have the rest of my armies in MA to explore and do things there cause everything is worth so much more there.  Doesn't matter whether it is collecting resources, finding treasure chests, etc it is all worth more there.  But who knows and I am tired so until tomorrow!

Day 38

Ah the problems of not logging on!  Well so much for settling today!  My wolf army made it one cell away before dying and dropping the scroll of recall.  My army in DS got beat up by dragons.  And I lost a few towers to other players.  Oh yeah and I wasn't training or building for about 10+ hours!

But abandon ship I did!  Missed the stupid achievement though!  Guess you village does have to be over 400 to get it, lame.  After I abandoned I got the buff apple of a stick which is an extra 5% off of training and construction so I promptly canceled my current buildings and re-queued them to take advantage of the new discount.

But as luck would have it in the wee hours of the night I was able to settle my new MA spot!  And oh it looks good.  My new neighbor the MD looks like a mean monster but really has a good heart.  Mines at +75% for both gold and diamond.  And did I mention it's also ocean front property!  Now the ocean is a raving sea of hot lava but hey it's still a beach right?

Day 32 End

Well alas I was close but not close enough...  Draak came out of left field and settled about two hours and eight minutes before me.  So close it is kinda disheartening.  I work so hard for it yet no.  Oh well that is the game.  I am disappointed I didn't prepare for it more.  Had I just prepared with one step I would have been ahead of everyone by about 12 plus hours.  Let that be a lesson to all.  Be prepared!  But congrats to Draak for getting there before me.

Having said all that I am quite happy with my performance.  Once I did receive the glyph I reduced the original time by more than 3/4 of the original time that was required.  I was a little more than 4 days out when I got my glyph but reduced that to just under 1 and 1/2 days.  So that is an impressive feat to do.

So it is back to work and building up my new MA village is number one priority.

Day 32 Morning

Through the night I was able to reduce my research to 1 day 8 hours.  My council halls should be finishing up here in just a couple of hours.  This will leave me 1 CP short however still.  I got to get this either through research, upgrading one of my council halls to level 10, or finding an item.  Still a coupld of thousand off in resources to upgrade to level 10 but I do have surpluses in gold and iron so maybe I can trade some to get enough.  I also tried searching a couple of ruins but to no avail in finding an item with CP in it.

Amazingly my wolf army that I sent to MA with a scroll of recall made it through the night without fighting at all.  So they are only an hour away from MA then it's on to the village spot.  But first I got to aviod hellhounds, spiders, burning pincers, and ruby dragons!

Traded a bunch of resources (with a crappy market value) around and now I am only 1.5 hours from having enough resources to build a level 10 council hall.  But I still need to get that down some cause my level 9 finishes in 1 hour 7 mins.  No time to waste!
