Hey! I've made Corporal!!! How did I do that? Is it the amount of blood that I have spilled (mostly my own)??

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

Translated from propaganda:
A commander wandered across the border, said "boo", and walked back upon seeing that the province was in fact inhabited. (He was at the back of the battlefield and scripted Retreat to check if you had bothered putting PD, since I didn't see any units present.) "Repelled", my fragrant french butt. If that's a glorious victory you should be a walkover. :p

Ctis confirms the reports and would like to state for the record that the troops are:
3rd Serpent Dancers
10th, 15th and 32nd Elite Warriors
31st Longdead Horsemen
44th Lamia Irregulars

(Numbers made up based mostly on how new they are.)

The people of Ctis are peace-loving as evidenced by the fact that they have only cast profitable, defensive spells such as Gift of Health, and not, for example, Burden of Time. (It would have been surprisingly easy considering that I not only get D3?1 mages with Skull Staff, but I've also forged the Skull Face helm and Sceptre of Dark Regency weapon.)

However, we warn any and all would-be invaders that our mages are ready to cast Foul Vapors on enemy armies at a moment's notice, and can get there at the same notice thanks to Obscuro forging Winged Shoes for quite a lot of them. :D

Noted. Once this turn resolves I'll figure out how much I need to delay the next one.

And I think the Corporal title is based on you reaching 50 posts.

It's WAR!!!

Validun has been overrun by hundreds of lizards. It is an infestation!

Ctis lies - "The people of Ctis are peace-loving as evidenced by the fact that they have only cast profitable, defensive spells". What about invasions???

This is the second Day of Infamy caused by Ctis' unprovoked incursions into Caelum soil. The first invasion ended with Ctis's unqualified defeat. It is amazing how history repeats itself.

PS
As I mentioned, I may not have time to make my next move until tomorrow evening, if I can do it earlier, I will.

Postponement set with a bit of margin because I repeatedly miscalculated where EST was.

(Also stop complaining about the attacks, I asked if you wanted to extend our NAP and you said no. :p)

For lurkers, I'm attaching a rough map of the game state that doesn't give away too much information. ;) Lake C'tis is so dubbed because I have an underwater fort there.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

No problem, 10 EST is 0400 CET and 0200 GMT. In the future, which would you prefer?


Well, well ... it looks like we hit a nerve. What's the matter, Lizard Lad, the reality of your actions don't match your pure self-image?:( Can't take a little bad press??:smirk:
A few data points;
1. I am not complaining, just announcing.
2. I made a counterproposal concerning the NAP, to which you never responded. Strictly (contractually) speaking we still have a NAP.
3. an attack made without a Declaration of War is a SNEAK attack
4. and finally, even if a NAP expires it doesn't mean you HAVE to immediately attack each other (which I believe I mentioned in my proposal).

Anyhow, no problems here :D, but the press will publish unfettered by the dictates of tyrants!

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

If you want to start with the "strictly speaking", I am going to respond that it constitutes aggression when you say you plan to team up with Helheim against me. ;)

I'd prefer GMT since that what the game administration page uses.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

"The army consists of mainly Temple Guards and Eagle Kings."

Aren't Eagle Kings a commander? (That's a rhetorical question.)

Time for some awesome battling, I guess.

All Quiet on the Western Front, as Ctis contemplates his future or lack of one.:(

FYI, it was not me who launched the hurricane, but thanks anyhow for the locusts. They're tasty. I lost 200 gold, but had lucky random events that gave me 350 gold. :)

However, you can blame me for the Fires from Afar, how are they working out? :rolleyes:

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

I'd bet on the former. After all, I just used the income from Mother Oak to summon a Couatl (S3N3), have him forge a Starshine Skullcap, and cast Mind Hunt at you. :)

Somehow I have trouble believe that a hurricane would randomly strike my capital right after I annoy a nation with huge amounts of Air magic. :rolleyes:
Hah. I got 1000 gold from extra good tax collection this turn. :D

Rather annoying. But Lizard Kings have 17hp and Sauromancers 12hp, so as long as it's not likely to kill my commanders there I can tolerate it. The main losers are the highly replaceable Longdead Horsemen with 5hp. And by "highly replaceable" I mean "35 for 10 gems". :D

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)
 

Waste of gems/time - it only works on weak-minded commanders. None here.:p

I can't help your beliefs, I can only tell you the truth.



Good then, I hope they all have some good sunburn lotion! :D
