Well thats two nice sites I found. Castle Arcanum and Tower of Silver. Which I've never seen before.

We keep receiving quite cryptic and disturbing messages from R'lyeh, which don't even seem to be intended for us... Maybe it's just R'lyeh being R'lyeh.

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

Lavaere: I've seen Castle Arcanum before: never tower of silver.

Festin: same. :p

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

Yeah I like mages and those two gave me three new mages to play with. Exspecially since I'm Bogarus and I'll be needing them sooner or later.

Yeah and those R'lyeh messages get annoying after awhile.

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

Well, I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one getting the odd message or two from the nutty fish folk.

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

Castle Arcanum is really nice. A magical thug chassis (depending on the randoms), great magic variety and research on those wizards, and the castle is nice and strong. What kind of mages does Silver Tower give?

Personally though, I'd rather have found the Hidden Kingdom of Elludia. 2S1D+1ESDB mage and a awesome ethereal assassin (the mages is better, though). Plus 3S1D income and a Mountain Citadel. That find made Kailasa into both a blood and death nation, that SP game. ^_^

I've put Abysia to AI. Didn't have enough time to do my turns lately and the situation doesn't look recoverable after staling several mage recruitment turns away. I'd have to start a war with either Atlantis or Gath to get anywhere and only chance I'd have against either with my build would be to overwhelm with fire evocations.

I think my strategy of lesser horror rush expansion might have worked elsewhere on that map, but my neigboring bless rushers got me boxed in early. Especially Atlantis, who used sailing to grab the channel crossing provinces. And lesser horrors would fail badly against Assartut's magic weapons, so I couldn't exactly start a war right then.

Sorry to hear that Omedan, I did not mean to ruin your expansion. Hope to see you in other games.

I would like a pause over the weekend after the upcoming turn from friday afternoon to sunday night. This is because I´ve been invited to the countryside where there is no internet. I could try to get someone to cover for me I guess.

Also I decided to make a AAR for this game, You can read it here.

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

How long do you need, a 24 or a 48 hour delay?

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 

Well the current turn is already sent and I will get the next one in before I leave. So the turn I need a delay for is the one supposed to host saturday night. A 24h delay, until sunday night, would do.
