I'm not especially eager to continue the game after this long, joined some new ones.

Just set Ermor to AI if you do, I was done anyway.

Come on you all. This was a great one of a kind team game. We can get this thing rolling again. And with a 72 hour host, it will be no crimp in your crowded schedules.

Hmmmm, do I need to start a poll? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: The server is back
 
As the one who launched the game, I'd certainly like to continue.

Failing that, we could start another team game - with a map better suited to the forced coastal starts (sorry about that) - maybe once Kingmaker has gone to 72 hrs (or only with people eliminated from Kingmaker already http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif).

I'd not mind a restart http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I am now in 4 games, 3 of them in the endgame phase, so i dont really have time to play in this game anymore, but i can give my nation to a sub.

BigDisAwesome July 11th, 2008 03:44 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I wouldn't mind a restart so much. We could get new people for those that don't want to play. I want R'yleh again though.

Re: The server is back
 
hmmm I'm not so fond of the monkeys myself but another try wouldn't be that bad.. I'd love not to be next to whomever I couldn't controle the first time though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

as I said before the previous one started: IMHO the nations could be matched otherwise.. I'd not mind switching that.. or the nations.. or the players playing the nations.. or the team...

I'd like to be in the game though.. it's a nice concept if you 'don't get slaughtered ASAP

PS what should I have done to avoid certain death

Hard to tell. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do. It just works out a certain way. Sometimes it is just luck.
But I don't know enough of what happened to say. I just snuck in and took provinces with crappy chaff armies once you were already overwhelmed.

Aezeal July 11th, 2008 05:11 PM

Re: The server is back
 
Well I just got beaten badly everytime except here

"Battle report: plains of Umidor (55)

The invading armies of Mictlan didn't heed the warnings of the righteous god of Patala and marched towards the Patalainian capitol, as promised the combined armies of Patala where awaiting them.

In the east 2 groups of elephants (12 and 19) where arranged next to the groups of 100 atavi archers
The army was led by indepent commanders under supervision of a bander commander. The Naga had sent 4 nagarishi to bless the battle with their presence.

On the other side of the battle field a King of rain led 50 flagellants and 30-40 wild and terrible jaguar warriors.
Clearly an army which would recieve a false blessing to enhance their weakish bodies.

The patalan armies, entrenched and ready had the first stroke.

Before the King of rain could say his false divine blessing
four blade winds and 100 arrows rained down on mostly the flagellants killing half of them before they could get a twisted faith.

After that the wretched king of rain blessed his remaining troops and they charged forth only to fall again to blade winds and archer fire.

After 2 turns the naga blessed our army even more by staying bravely on the battlefield while they had been ordered to leave after bladewinds had been cast twice.

All hail patala. "

and only because he didn't have his bless up then.. before and after that I just got beaten up VERY VERY nastily.

no clue what I should've done.

anyway

when will the it be decided if you continue or there is a restart..

if there is a restart I'd say the host should message all players and create a new thread for the new game (and a link to it in the message)

then wait a day or 2 for reactions and the recruit new players and make teams etc...

I'd like in though.

Micah July 11th, 2008 07:12 PM

Re: The server is back
 
Hmm, the first game looked headed for a crappy late-game quagmire, so I wouldn't mind seeing it die a peaceful death. I'd be up for a restart though if people wanted, though I'd prefer to wait until the 15th or so to get rolling since I'm out of town at the moment.

Lingchih July 11th, 2008 09:14 PM

Re: The server is back
 
OK. Looks like only a couple of us want to continue with this game, so I withdraw my petition.

Aezeal July 14th, 2008 08:54 PM

Re: The server is back
 
so a restart?

Kristoffer O July 15th, 2008 03:52 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I've just been beaten in the kingmaker game, so I'm not playing any atm. I will be away between the 3 and 11 aug, but apart from that I'm available.

But I have already been useful with regards to the LA Atlantis funnification, so there is no need for me to play the game any more.

I'm ok with continuing, but I think I don't want to restart. Other nations might need me more http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

It would be fun to have a look at other players turns though, if we don't continue.

Another vote from me, I always find this interesting.

Aezeal July 15th, 2008 06:04 PM

Re: The server is back
 
Hmm maybe not a real restart.. but just a new game with same idea (team game) just select a few new nation combo's..

and players who played can get in first if they wanted ..
\
how about that KO?

BigDisAwesome July 15th, 2008 07:22 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I'll get my turn uploaded sometime tonight or tomorrow.
Let's just say not having any early wars was nice for snagging a good amount of artifacts. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

DrPraetorious July 15th, 2008 08:03 PM

Re: The server is back
 
In that case, I propose we launch another team game in about a month.

KO - what other LA nations need goodies?

quantum_mechani July 15th, 2008 08:06 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I'd target Jomon, personally.

Kristoffer O July 16th, 2008 02:13 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I have some Jomon ideas up my sleeve, so they don't need my immediate attention.

Lingchih July 27th, 2008 12:51 AM

Re: The server is back
 
Let's do a re-start of this game. It was a very good game, and I think we should do it again. Same teams, we only need to replace those players that do not wish to participate.

Kristoffer O July 27th, 2008 05:26 AM

Re: The server is back
 
Yes, It was quite fun and educational. I haven't nerfed the PoD yet though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

LA Atlantis will get some new UW units next patch, including some dream resistance to better tackle LA R'lyeh.

Aezeal July 27th, 2008 06:26 AM

Re: The server is back
 
a R'lyeh killer that would be nice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Kristoffer O July 27th, 2008 07:31 AM

Re: The server is back
 
Nah, not R'lyehkiller, freespawning will still be a major balance issue.

Aezeal July 27th, 2008 11:54 AM

Re: The server is back
 
hmm... drop it?

Kristoffer O July 27th, 2008 12:06 PM

Re: The server is back
 
No way http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Lingchih July 27th, 2008 12:31 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I'm only in 3 games right now, and about to be killed in one of those. I could easily fit this into my schedule. Restart, Restart,Restart!

Aezeal July 27th, 2008 01:56 PM

Re: The server is back
 
personally ít's not the best of times for me with 2 games going on and me being annoying in another one.. but I won't say no to this one if it starts... havng said that.. waiting another month works for me too

Lingchih July 27th, 2008 03:11 PM

Re: The server is back
 
Sure, I can wait for a while. I just like the concept of the team game, and hope that it can be resurected.

DrPraetorious July 27th, 2008 03:49 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I started a new signup thread. If you want to play in the restarted team game, comment there.

Lingchih July 27th, 2008 03:56 PM

Re: The server is back
 
sure, I'll play again. Why not? I was winning the last one.

whoops, wrong thread

DrPraetorious July 30th, 2008 10:01 PM

Re: The server is back
 
So, yeah, we're restarting - ETA 2 wks. Only 4 players from the original have signed up so far?

BigDisAwesome July 30th, 2008 10:51 PM

Re: The server is back
 
I must have missed this until now. Heading over there...

BigDisAwesome July 30th, 2008 10:52 PM

Re: The server is back
 
Actually, I really shouldn't join another game right now. Gonna be a little tough even keeping up with the ones I'm in for a while.

Sorry to bail out DrP.

DrPraetorious July 31st, 2008 02:05 AM

Re: The server is back
 
Your resignation is refused! BDA, you've got 2 weeks to clear your schedule. /kidding
