How are melders classified? The only ones I've seen were infantry. Are they monstrous, undead, both, or neither?

The fastest unit obviously available to Audrey (Melders, http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/Alliance/Faction/33) has a speed of 8 squares per hour. Thus, if you are closer to Entwash than Audrey is (2,345 squares) and have units faster than 8 squares per hour, then you should be fine if you send them as the heart starts beating, as it would take Audreys troops a bit over 12 days to reach Entwash.
Having said that, the statement by the Dwarven ghost that "the onslaught will be swift and ruinous when the time comes" could possibly mean that there will be faster units employed as well. What troops that could be is anybody's guess... Anyway, although it is to a large extent speculation, the main bet is that you will have 12 days or a bit more to reach Entwash from the time Audrey starts beating to the onslaught arriving. For other towns, the time would obviously be a bit different but all I am aware of are pretty far north and would be possible to reinforce from large parts of both continents. Good Speed! |

Thibble, the last time I got attacked by melders, they were extremely slow. You should be able to beat them there if your commanders have forced march.

Nesse,
I would like to join the defense of your city for the tournament. How
soon do you believe you will need the troops present? It's a bit of a trip for me to get there so a week or a bit more of warning is pretty much required for me to help out. Thanks for doing this tourney!

Hi Everyone
sorry Aral...and anyone else. let me be more clear. We will not be helping Epidemic's city but we will help any Roads or Druid city that needs help. Hopefully this has clarified my position. Tanya

Verbally abusing the person who posted above you because of a totally unrelated issue is a rather ineffective way to talk about the issue at hand. You clearly care about his city, albeit in a negative way, otherwise you wouldn't take time to post something like that in this thread.

Hi Everyone
No one cares about Epidemic's city but Fairy and Fairi will help any Druid or Road's town as needed and indicated. I will let all Fairies from either alliance know about this. Nesse(Odd) if you can let us know when to send we will get thousands of troops sent to help defend. We can reinforce with both alliances I believe. Tanya

This is the first time in Illy history this is happening, anything can happen.

This has been posted before, by Epidemic, see http://forum.illyriad.co.uk/the-greatest-quest-on-illyriad_topic5771.html#77651 for the full text of the fortune teller messages.
But is of obvious interest here, so ... after collecting tentacles and consulting the Fortune Teller, my messenger returned(!) from Duraz Karag with the following message: Your diplomat walks quietly around the empty halls, his footsteps echoing in the silence underneath the arches of the ruined cathedral ceiling. Spotting a gentle glow emanating behind a ruined pillar, he carefully and quietly peers behind the rubble. His initial trepidation is replaced by a sense of wonderment as he sees the vague, shimmering outline of a great Dwarven warrior, resplendent in ancient armour. Despite the ghostly shape's clearly unnatural nature, he feels nothing but calm. The translucent figure speaks with a deep, slow voice; although it appears his lips do not move. " You have done well thus far, and may yet prove yourself worthy. You must keep these terrible boils of corrupted flesh safe in your town. I warn you. Do not send them out, do not transfer them away. Keep them safe whilst you prepare yourself. When the dread corruption rises again, Entwash will be in dire peril. Secure this town as best you can; you may wish to seek assistance from your compatriots, as the onslaught will be swift and ruinous when the time comes. Survive this test, and you will have but a single trial ahead of you before the secret will be yours. " The mysterious figure fades into the background, and after searching the ruins thoroughly, your diplomat returns home. Edited by Nesse - 10 Aug 2014 at 12:10 |
