The Crab Clan and their allies have repelled the latest Shadowlands assault, and the goblin horde has fled back to the Big Stink to lick its wounds. Despite this great victory, there are sinister rumors of some great evil stirring deep in the Shadowlands, and Kaiu engineers are busily repairing damage to the Walls at Shiro Hiruma in preparation for the next attack.

Despite the lopsided number of actions between attackers and defenders, nearly every clan helped the Crab hold the wall, even the clans that are outright enemies to the Crab. Only the Tortoise helped the Spider. The Spider made a valiant effort, but could not overcome the weight of numbers.

But, as you know, you can never really destroy the evil of the Shadowlands....only push them back for a time.

...Woot, another battle down, just Castle of the Swift Sword to go and all the really long battles will have finished up. Really cool on the oni allies btw, I won't get them but it's a nice flavor addition.

...Eh, if you look at the numbers it really reads like there's one person in the crab, crane, dragon, lion and Unicorn that's tainted and supporting the spider. 10, 30 and 80 are all token completion numbers. Neither Sneak Attack nor Command Shadowlands drop taint, so you'll get a higher number of token clickers there. Besides, Command Shadowlands was the only way to get those delicious anti-crab plots.

Could we have a healthy conversation about the recruit Goblin job in the Big Stink? How about a

Max Honor -1 OR minimum Infamy 1,000?

Throwing stones for curses is terribly slow going (<5% drop rate so far) and I find it hard to believe that my 7k infamy and 3500 taint isn't enough to get some goblins to fear me enough to follow me.

Hehe, my plan is kinda working, pitched battles will make the crab use the taint against the tainted!

On a side note: There is at the most 2 naughty crabs since most of those actions where mine.

Use the taint Hida Luke!
