Corner starts are not all that they are cracked up to be. Especially when you have an income crash and your Prophet gets killed.

Unlucky scales? I have grown to fear them...

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

I think Helheim is about to miss 2nd turn in row. If he will, and if Coobe can't make his turns, perhaps Helheim should be switched to AI?

Not that it would matter much at this point, since he seems to have all his provices taken/besieged by someone. (By the way who is his conquerer?) Still, even AI might be better than stalling human.

What do you think guys?

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Does he have an awake SC pretender? Else he is toast, put him to AI.

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
 

Bah, Coobe did the same thing in Blessing (Lanka) and Fallacy (TC) and Rhoscrowther (Atlantis) too. Grumble, grumble.

Easter break
 

I don't know if we discussed this - and I probably should have. I am travelling to Merrit Island Friday; which means I will be unavailable for turns on Saturday & possibly sunday.

After processing Friday, can we have the next turn due Midnight Easter Sunday?

I just had Malverni attack - no grumbles there - but I'd hate to stale 2 turns in a row - might as well just resign.

Re: Easter break
 

It would be fine with me.

The blood moon
 

Under the new moon the council gathered.
Under the new moon the archdruids argued.
Under the new moon an edict was issued.
Under the full moon blood was spilled.

The foul ichors of the Yomi hiss and bubble on the ground as brave Marverni barechests shoulder the responsibility of cleansing this cancer from the world, for what could be fouler than undead worshiping demons? The strength of the demons, hideous in its own right is bent to the will of an ancient and terrible ghost king whose presence chills the very bones of those to behold him. Our women cry in anguish for we march not from a position of strength, but from one of desperation. The odds are against us and should we fail we have no hope of mercy from demon or ghosts. Reprisal will doubtless be both swift and fearsome.

Yet the seedlings have been planted as our nation spreads its canopy and begins to grow. If our brave warriors can behead this foul beast and buy us time the mighty oak of Marverni will stand tall for all to see. Gaia herself has been so inspired by our courage and offended by these abominations she has gifted us with her personification and the means to both cleans and renew the earth. Quail cryptkeeper, for the egg shall soon hatch and we shall fear demons no more.

Re: The blood moon
 

Very well said Lord of Mictlan. Let your Egg of Destiny hatch and bring the swift doom to your enemies.

But BEWARE , mighty Lord! Beware the EGG STEALER !!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Re: The blood moon
 

Uhh, I would be the Lord of Mictlan. And I'm considerably less threatening than that. Would you like a NAP? Perhaps some fine Mictlani crumpets?
