A few more games have ended:
EMPIRE Wins:
Dubs on Rail USA (away)
Trips on Actium (away)
Quads on Pearl Harbor (away)
Dubs on Iraq (home)
Trips on Madness (home)--this will be over in one turn.
Quads on NYC (home)

world 2.1, HA owned you there... Supermax, as expected

and maybe WW 2... but thats about it

Rail USA shouldve been there, but you guys had unreal luck there... we dominated but somewhere in the middle, complete collapse of our attacks combined with cards saved you

we have to be realistic. so far you guys completely outplayed us

Rail was an interesting game... but your downfall there was your pard only had about 20 troops and we both had mixed sets coming... If I recall correctly you had just cashed and he only had 1 card, making him a perfect elimination target for us. The only way to avoid large card swings like that are to play no spoils...

It sure is a fun challenge so far! Keep it up, EMPIRE!

Round 4 is about to begin. We're coming around the turn and in to the home stretch (a little horse racing faux pas for our English friends...you know who you are).

humiliation of freak, just for you on CC, presented by Empire... good lord, those guys are killing me with such an easy im stunned theyve shown no regret what so ever

remove my games, and the score is almost even :cry:

EMPIRE 29 Nemesis 16. We're getting close.

EMPIRE wins on Arms Race 1v1 (a nail biter that the dice gave us, admittingly).
EMPIRE wins on Easter Hemisphere quads
Nemesis wins on Prison Riot quads (again...I'm boycotting that map for a while).

I see at least 5 games you guys have a clear lead on it's just a mater of time now. I reckon it will end up about 39-25ish.

I can't believe we are likely to only win 2 or 3 out of the 16 singles and dubs, would have been a lot more intresting without them. (from our point of view :lol:

)

Congrats.

oh, you won already... we are just trying to regain our pride now

in few games you guys slipped out of my arms, still not sure how did you manage it... rolls are one thing, but epic fails like i had in one of those Arms Race game, or most memorable first New World game... man, those games still hurts me

but im taking my revenge on you guys! second New World come to us. and im about to win home singles... if we win second Rail Europe, id be satisfied

Haha. I appreciate the compliment. But I don't think I am the best. I like to think I just get lucky a lot there.

Welldone empire, while score will change but your victory !
I think, as nemesis we still need to workout more and have a few things to do to get to better.
Next time, we will be more dangerous and threatening, in other words not this easy !

As nemesis, we would like to state our pleasure we are having/had with you empire fellas.
Till next time,

Congradulations,
H.A. (Speaking for Nemesis)

Thanks Kaan...

The scoreline is not an accurate reflection of how hard a fight this challenge has been...we've had to fight hard for every single victory, believe me...and many games were balanced on knife-edges that just fell our way. Don't beat yourselves up about the score. You will bounce back stronger from this, no question.

Sure, we are happy with the victory, but what has pleased me even more is that, after the early "issues" we had, the challenge has been played in a great spirit...and we were all wise enough to put the early problems behind us ... I consider I have made some friends with the Nemesis guys now, rather than enemies...and really that pleases me greatly. I think I can speak for all of the Empire guys when I say how impressed we have been with the sportsmanship and skill levels at Nemesis.

Well Played and Best of luck in the future, all at Nemesis!

of course you are pleased. i would also be pleased if i got to play against someone like me, who instead of resiting the rape even offers you a coffee after it

in all seriousness, i have never ever played against more skillful opponents. endar and chuuuuuck played magnificently, really showing us how true champs playing. and this doesnt mean others from Empire didint played greatly, its just to my eyes, those two rise above others, at least in this challenge. and you are also true about how great sportsman you all were. thats just final nail in our coffin. we didnt even get the chance to be pissed at you and curse you here on forum. darn, talking about bad luck

as for Nemesis, first, im not pleased with what i did. yeah, sure, some of the games i have played were decided in rather strange turn of rolls, but overall i have to admit i was outplayed by Empire. second, i also think HA could play better. he wasnt as bad as i was, and i know he gave his best, but in some games he and his team werent patient enough. he gave up to his temperament i believe

others played great and im really proud at all of them =D>

and happy to be in same clan as those guys

And yeah it was nice to see the drama at the start die down lol. You guys were immense throughout, as good as I knew you were before hand you still kept surpising me. Good luck in your future challenges, I will be watching closely

just what I was thinking....

If there was a smiley with the middle finger raised, you'd definitely be getting that from HA, freak :lol:

by **freakns** on Wed Nov 18, 2009 2:27 pm

no he isnt. i already told him i expect him to win every game and everything below that is not good enough

and he will agree with what ive said

and if that isnt the case, im still stronger then him

by **Lubawski** on Thu Nov 19, 2009 11:44 am

First of all, I echo Chephren's comments. The challenge was truly enjoyable. Great games, tough competition. And Freak has been great entertainment in the threads here. Visit all our challenge threads please.

Now to other business. We need to make Blitz look smart here, so how are we going to get to 34-30. Our count has at least 36 that will go our way. I think there's a rule somewhere on CC that Blitz always has to be right though, so we better work on this.

by **Lubawski** on Fri Nov 20, 2009 3:08 pm

Currently at 34-21 Empire lead.
EMPIRE set to win Gazala, Ardennes, and 2.1, with an advantage in WWII Europe, Waterloo and Charleston (though Waterloo and Charleston can go either way depending on dice and cards).
Nemesis set to win Rail USA and are leading in Eastern Hemisphere and Forbidden City

Looks like a possible 40-24 finish...we'll see.

It was a fun challenge against you guys. Hope to meet you all again in another challenge.

Rail Europe, not Rail USA

and its finished, we have won. 40-24?! good lord, thats terrible

once more, congratulations guys, you have shown formidable skills. in few games rolls were kind to you, but when you win with such a big difference there is nothing we can do but bow to you. and ask you to use lubricant next time, i have a feeling im not going to be able to sit for next few weeks

Update...the current score is 39-22 EMPIRE

NEMESIS will definitely win Eastern Hemi Quads

EMPIRE big advantage in Charleston Quads

Forbidden City Quads is too close to call

by **HardAttack** on Sun Nov 29, 2009 4:25 am

Will do an update very soon :mrgreen:

by **Lubawski** on Mon Dec 07, 2009 7:17 pm

40-23 with only one to go: Game 5879961

Thanks for the challenge Nemesis. Great group you have, good strategy and planning. I feel sorry for the next clan you challenge. There's going to be a lot of pent up aggression that will be let out there (like we had here after LOW destroyed us).
