The Forge

Gah, I made a mistake - I can't start wineskins yet.

Shinuyama appreciates the eye of aiming. Unfortunately, the oni have started eating all our food. Shinuyama armies desperately in need of field rations. (It wouldn't be so bad if i didn't have to cart all these bakemono-sho around to tire out his damned Anakim).

I've got 1 hammer ready now. Who will have it?
Oh yeah, just though to mention that my pretender can forge crystal shields.

Anybody got any spare ranged weapons for my reverse communion? I could really use a couple. Doesn't matter what they are, as long as they have reasonable range.

or if I am sent fire or air gems I could forge some myself. (the air one is far better).

Putting on the Bandar's Monkey Suite....

Bandar is making an Enormous Cauldron of Broth. Assuming I am no longer under siege (the turn report says I am but I can't see anything there and can build in the fortress inc PD....) this will be spare and I can send it to Squirrel.

I need a hammer this turn, so I can forge a Robe of Water for Shin... if no one else has a more pressing need, I could use more than one, since I will hit construction 4.

I really need those air/fire gems I mentioned. 5 of either. preferably last turn. Or if anyone can send me a ranged weapon that would work as well. I already may end up going into battle 10-15% understrength unless I can get another ranged weapon from somewhere. I could also use some astral pearls, my supply is getting somewhat low.


-edit: I could also use supply items. Wineskin/cauldron.

I can forge Frostbrands en masse at a discount (3 gems) if anyone wants some.

I don't have a use for them right at this moment, but I should within a couple turns... not a priority, though.

Is someone sending me a hammer?!?

I'd PM Stretch, our new Ulm player.

This turn is a bit tight for me in mage-time. If no one sends you one next turn, then I will. Actually, I just realized that I don't need to forge quite as many thistle staffs as I thought because I can transfer them to new owners once Dragon Master is cast. Boy, I'm an idiot . Anyway, I'll send you a hammer next turn if someone else doesn't. Won't be a problem at all.

Someone (Caelum?) mentioned Frost Brands. Jotunheim could certainly do with one of those.

Bandar is looking for a Hammer or two as well as I should get Construction 4 next turn and so will begin to be able to construct some decent nature and astral items.

Bandar can knock out a few decent astral and nature items once at Cons 4 It would just be so much more efficent with hammers.

We need as many hammers as possible of course

I didn't see anyone sending this to you, so I'll send you one. I seem to have a spare anyway.

Um, if you ever have another Thistle Mace to spare (or anyone else too), I could use one. The Boar Mage is getting me by for now, but relying on a merc is expensive and undependable. And to anyone who sends me a Mace, if I don't find any Enchantresses or such, I'll have no use for the gems, and they'll likely be coming back your way

Sending you one too. (I only got one sorcerer capable of doing dragon master this last turn)

Much obliged! Since no one else has requested my unusable (for me) F, E, and D gems (and I know you have the paths - don't forget about Cave Drakes with those E gems!), I'll start sending them your way.

Bandar is hitting Cons 4 this turn and could certainly do with earth gems for hammers (for the otehr mages he has) and the like (Pretender has Earth 9).

I don't mind giving Bandar my 1 a turn E gem income, but instead of forging your own Hammers, shouldn't you be looking to Ulm for that? Ulm (Stretch, you seeing this? ) should be forging hammer after hammer, and using those hammers to forge even more hammers, in an exponential hammer storm!!!

So how's that Hammer storm coming along, Ulm?

I also have const 4, I can forge bag of winds (which I need desperatelly) but dont have the gem supply. Forging a frostband for whoever next turn.

I sent 2 hammers to c'tis last turn and this Ulm pretender only has 2E so I'm making earth boots this turn! I'll start the hammer factory next turn. I will also have a shield of gleaming gold, and will work on getting that production way up if you guys need more of those/charcoal shields or whatever. Ulm's got construction 4 now baby!

Ulm needs:
1) Thistle mace and 2 nature gems per turn for Haruspex! Please for the love of god.
2) Skull mentors! Need more research so I can forge a lot.
3) I've got fire gems for but other requests please send some earth if you can.

Thanks for the hammers, Stretch!

I'm making a Robe of the Sea for Shin and a skull staff for myself.

If a Marshmaster can make, feel free to request it! (Though I may need gems.)

Ooh, I'd love a Robe of the Sea. Then I can remote site search for water.

Can I please get a couple main gauches of parrying and cat charm necklaces and/or any other items that increase defense?(preferably two of each item)

Thanks for the Frost Brand
