I wasn't at computer yesterday so I missed that - can't help it now though.

Mm. I got out a rushed housekeeping turn, lost me a major battle but better than staling.

Re: Discharge - LA game - Started
 

At this time, I would like to ask for a concession...A rough count puts me at around 130 provinces total income of about 10,000 gold (6000 after upkeep) 263 gems/turn (only 2 of which are blood slaves) I have been putting those gems to good use...I found the Ultimate gateway during my invasion of Pythium (for those not in the know, it's a magic site with a 50% conjuration bonus...which in the hands of my nation is almost unfair, thus the proliferation of rudras and kinnaras) I finished researching quite a while ago so all of my mages are free to roam and cast magic to devastating effect.

There are still some potent nations out there (Atlantis has shown very solid defensive anti SC tactics and I'm sure pangea and his carrion beasts would prove unpleasant) but thankfully I'm not a one trick pony and my SC's are mostly there to disrupt income while my main armies take down the real resistance. I have quite enjoyed this game but my turns are starting to take a painfully long time and at this point I think it's less a case of if I'll win and more a case of when. I'll crack that dome on your cap eventually Atlantis :D

My own doom in eventuality come from one or the other. I am toast when it comes to defending against Patala... at least I could gorilla it against Atlantis. Towel goes in should everyone else concur.

I know that you've been expanding long and mostly unopposed, but darn, didn't think that much.

I know there's pretty much nothing left of me (C'tis) after countless years of warring with mictlan, swapping provinces and simply killing each others mages and troops off. At least I can draw some comfort from the fact that I outlived him :)

So, I'm willing to call it Patala's victory (Ultimate gateway, right...) unless no-one else thinks they can oppose him in the race to godhood.

Re: Discharge - LA game - Started
 

You mean, one day you'll crack all three of the domes on my capital ;).

I've been struggling against both Ulm and Abysia, and whilst I've been crushing their armies by and large, I've also lacked the troops to exploit and make big territorial gains. Although I've finally become very strong in SC/troops and was ready for a big push when Patala attacked, being stalled for so long has exhausted my empire in gems and gold.

I can probably make Patala's life somewhat difficult for a while with the firepower I have left should everyone fancy an all-out assault, but equally I'd agree to concede if all others do.

Re: Discharge - LA game - Started
 

Haha, I had to fight off Man, Bogarus, and the occasional Pythium while dealing with C'tis. I thought I was going to outlive C'tis, but then I miscalculated on my dominion candles. Good job Revo!

Hmph. Nobody notices the little hoburg priests sneaking about doing their thing.

Oh, wait, that was kinda the point. Nevermind, carry on. :)

On to the topic at hand, I'm a bit on the fence. On one hand, I know full well I won't be able to stop Patala at this point with what I have, despite the generous donations from Marignon. At most, I figure I can be an annoyance for a few turns, but that's about it. On the other hand, if I know there's a proper war going on out there that might end up in Patala's fall, I've no problems at all with being said annoyance.

So it really comes down to how many people are willing to keep trying the impossible. In other words, I'm pretty much on the same lines as Agema here.

Re: Discharge - LA game - Started
 

I figured I'd show my map so those who don't have great scouting can see how the world is laid out at this time (hopefully pangea agrees to concede so that this does not come back to bite me :D) I'll share some more images and a rundown of my game once things are definitely over.
