My first tentacle appeared at square 662/800, adjacent to Fry. I quickly occupied on top of it. I then sent armies to surround my town and to surround the tentacle. However, a new tentacle appeared diagonally some hours later at 661/801, which was the only spot which did not (at that time) yet have an army occupying it. This makes me feel like we need to surround the tentacles to stop them from expanding.

If anyone NAP nearby wants to help out by occupyng the 5 spots around tentacle number 2, I would appreciate it.. I am running low on armies in the region.

If you do help and have not already been helping out, please send me an email so that I know who to thank since it won't be listed in my army screen. :) Thank you everyone! After such a long wait, things are happening.

On second thought, save those armies until we see if tentacle number 3 appears. I *think* I will have the two tentacles surrounded in about 3 hours... let's hope they get trapped and go crazy and attack Fry! xD

thanks again everyone

I'm guessing that the tentacles will completely surround the target city before attacking. If I am not mistaken, armies occupying squares that were uncorrupted did not prevent that square from becoming corrupted though the army was fine and did not turn to medlers. 

Perhaps, these tentacles will act differently. I have sent a small force to occupy a square around Epidemic's city that should get corrupted if they are in fact surrounding the city. 

As to the attack, perhaps the tentacles will spit out medlers in a constant wave of attacks over a period of time. Maybe the time period will be a full lunar cycle?

I have some soul-forged blades, but it'll take several days to get them and equip.

We now have 2 tentacles around of towns. My best guess is once we reach 9 tentacles we'll be attacked, worst guess is once we reach 73+9 tentacles...

Now, where did I put my soul forged blades....

In the meantime, I would very much appreciate support also in occupying squares adjacent to current infestations. By both Entwash and Ivory Hall, the tentacle grew a square during the day and in both cases on an adjacent and empty square.
