I've postponed the hosting by 12 hours for myself. I've been/am in London, and won't get back till very late tonight.

I see from the LlamaServer that the Skaven and Abysia are out/AIed. I guess my Air Queen finally got your ragtag bunch of pests, Digress? What a relief!

I've given myself another 8 hours - I didn't really have time to take my turn before work.

Turns out I didn't have such a good time against the Skaven after all, I guess Digress just finally set himself to AI (many thanks by the way Digress for battling on so long). His ratlings fought off my invincible Air Queen (she lives, but 50 turns of killing skeletons made her run off), only to be finally destroyed by an army of penitents, with monstrous losses. But meanwhile a single death mage popped up elsewhere, and liberated another province from me. Cursed ratlings!

Phew, Skaven didn't survive our alliance after all! Okay, time to see my rolling thunder... erh... I sure hope you've got bigger armies in the North against Ulm.

Re: Skavenblight Falls
 
Thought I wouldn't survive the turn so set myself to AI (did mean to announce it). Had been reduced to using some of my surviving mages as melee units to hold of province defence long enough for remaining mages to mop them up.

Ummmm ... is it rude to ask what happened to Abysia ? As my income nose dived I kind of killed off my scouts in the north by bringing them back to attack Ulm's weakly defended provinces (without great success). Did someone other than Ulm Reborn profit from their destruction ?


Thanks again to everyone for the game. Thanks especially to llamabeast for setting it up and to Sombre for the various mods that added some real flavour to proceedings. At present I am playing Ulm Reborn in the mid part of a game and am still convinced that as a nation it is well balanced (even though Ulm Reborn just whipped my hairy hide).

Edited to thank Sombre - quite an oversight !!!

Hopefully not, my war with Tien Chi left me quite soft for the Ulm invasion, his stealthers crippled all my fortresses. I did manage to kill many barbarians including their wyrm god in my attempts to take them down with me.

Obviously, in hindsight, I should have ended my NAP with Ulm as soon as it was clear he was dominating. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif

What stealth troops was he using?

Re: Skavenblight Falls
 
Concubines ?

That would be my guess .....

Imperial Consorts, the Tien Chi spies. I had to devote valuable armies to rooting them out even though I had real good PD in those provinces.

This is very late, but Ulm hasn't played yet... is it possible to push back hosting by 24 hours? Thanks! (I'll try to send you a mail if I can find your address before I have to leave)

Re: Skavenblight Falls
 
Aaargh, seems we had a disastrous Turn 62. I took my turn very carefully, before somehow apparently forgetting to send my turn in, and driving to Wales to see a friend in a pantomime*. Then Alneyan messaged me to ask for a postponement (unreceived, me being in Wales). And for some reason Bandar staled too. So only T'ien Ch'i took his turn!

Anyway, the time has come for war. I had hoped to actually have my armies on your borders, but oh well. Let the battles commence!

I observe, incidentally, that I have a ridiculous number of bards/consorts in my territory causing unrest. Pests!

* - If you don't live in England, pantomimes have a different meaning to in the rest of Europe. They are musical comedy things which follow a curiously fixed pattern, with lots of cross-dressing. I think they're unique to the UK.
