Re:
 
What, are we just making stuff up now?

Are all three of you seriously going to make me destroy all three of your armies? If so, my heroic and wildly successful stand against your three nations is totally going on the main boards, because I've never heard of anything like it. Three.

At this point, it's already over really, so you're just throwing your forces away. How wasteful.

Hey Pangaea, when you go last, you can go twice. There's no need to be last to play your turn twice in a row, unless you only get a minute to download your turn of course. Hope that helps!

I can smell renojustin's fear all the way from here in Kailasa (mixed with the scent of not a small amount of monkey feces)... Whatever it is you guys are planning, stick to it. It's clearly working.

It's working almost as well as you've fought Lanka! Time to uncork the champagne.

Oh wait, nevermind, graphs are ON for this game.

Quickly changing the subject, I see. Why, was something making you uncomfortable? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re:
 
If you can't appreciate that one nation stood against three and won, then I just feel sorry for you. There was no subject change - read the graphs, they tell you everything.

At this point, Abysia is just commiting suicide. Actually, I'll make good exp off him so he'll be helping me. Not to mention the uber glory and even more bragging rights that will entail, of course.

You may bandy words with me again when you prove that you can fight one nation successfully, let alone three.

Pangaea suffers another devastating blow, as their incomes and treaties unravel.

In the north, the wild magic of Tir na n'Og and the fiery, windy, deathy demons dominate their respective victims.

It won't be long until the severely weakened central nations come under heavy attack from the north!

Abysian troopers advance virtually unopposed into Sauromatian lands. Both Sauromatian fortresses are within reach and we consider sieging both to choke the flesheaters and make them eat each other instead of their neighours.

No sign of the dreaded Gazebo, but the Bastard Son expects her to show up real soon.

Re:
 
Sauromatia managed to balance the front, so we keep up the pressure where we are strong.

The Peccary
 
Peccaries are medium-sized animals, with a strong superficial resemblance to pigs. Like pigs, they have a snout ending in a cartilagenous disc, and eyes that are small relative to their head. Also like pigs, they use only the middle two digits for walking, although, unlike pigs, the other toes may be altogether absent. Their stomach is non-ruminating, although it has three chambers, and is more complex than that of pigs.[1]

Peccaries are omnivorous, and will eat small animals, although their preferred food consists of roots, grass, seeds, and fruit. One of the ways to tell apart pigs and peccaries is the shape of the canine tooth, or tusk. In European pigs the tusk is long and curves around on itself, whereas in peccaries, the tusk is short and straight. The jaws and tusks of peccaries are adapted for crushing hard seeds and slicing into plant roots[1], and they also use their tusks for defense. The dental formula for peccaries is:
2.1.3.3
3.1.3.3

By rubbing the tusks together they can make a chattering noise that warns potential predators to not get too close. Peccaries, indeed, are aggressive enough in temperament that, unlike Eurasia's pigs, they cannot be domesticated as they are likely to injure humans. Indeed in recent years in North-western Bolivia near Madidi National Park there have been reports of people being seriously injured and killed by large groups of peccaries. [2]

Peccaries are social animals, and often form herds. Over 100 individuals have been recorded for a single herd of white-lipped peccaries, but collared and Chacoan peccaries usually form smaller groups. Such social behavior seems to have been the situation in extinct peccaries as well.

Peccaries, with the exception of Pecari maximus, have scent glands below each eye and another on their back. They use the scent to mark herd territories, which range from 75 to 700 acres. They also mark other herd members with these scent glands by rubbing one against another. The pungent odor allows peccaries to recognize other members of the herd, despite their poor eyesight.


...I think llamabeast may be a zoologist!
