Re: A bounty on Pythium
 

Jomon is very interested in this deal, we can offer you 8 earth gems http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif (why are no neighbours of me actually interested in killing me, i have now arco, marignon, rlyeh and ermor swarming my lands :/)

A call for aid!
 

The legions of Ermor now turn East, a numberless, merciless crusade against the living.

They turn East, to overrun the fair lands of Tien Chi while its Kings battle honourably, defending the homeland against the invasions of Ctis and Mictlan.

They turn East, to make certain of their final victory in the war to end all wars as they seek to take for themselves the jewel in the Tien Chi crown, The Fabled Tower of the Iron Order.


Perhaps the Kings will now pay for their naivete, believing in Ermor's offer of friendship and alliance.
Perhaps the emissaries sent out to neighbouring realms should not have taken silence and indifference as an answer, and worked harder to secure treaties.
Perhaps the generals, faced with securing borders against the 2 mightiest nations in the world were too unwilling to venture far from their castle walls.


But perhaps, it may not be too late for they who love life. The great Gadong still lives, supported by our veteran mages and troops that have faced unceasing battle.
We will not fall easily. With aid, we may even hope to hold. Heed our pleas, and know that we ALL stand at the edge of great peril.

The vile denizens of the deep, R'lyeh, have invaded my lands.

We call upon all the free, sane peoples of the world to join us in repulsing their evil, before it is too late.

Re: A call for aid!
 

Yes, well... With Utgard approaching just about every other nation on the planet with offers of joint attack on me, I didn't feel I had much choise. Rather attack now, on my terms, than be pounced on while I'm looking the other way.

Besides, let's put things in perspective. I might be mad, and definitely am hungry, but R'lyeh hardly can be accused of having a disciplined military machine backed up by the immensly powerful forge of the ancients. Anyone with ambitions of winning the game should be more worried about that enchantment than about anything I can do...

Is there something with the server? Don't think it accepted my turn

Re: A call for aid!
 

The *only* nation I approached with an offer of a joint attack was Ermor - so I know what Jazzeppi does when given such proposals http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.

I think I mentioned to some other players that you were an obvious threat, but that's par for the course.

I don't know what's up but QM couldn't send in a turn either. If possible we should delay hosting?

Re: A call for aid!
 

...attack someone else? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif


Hmm... it seems I'm going to have to read up on some previous campaigns to learn about player personalities

Re: A call for aid!
 

Just received the new turn... but it seems I've staled, despite other emails saying my turn had been received.

However it looks like I'm not the only one staling? Just judging by a general lack of activity

Re: A call for aid!
 

I (Pythium) actually seem to have gone back in time. Anyone else had this.

Every time I accidentally turn the LlamaServer off overnight, when I start it up again the strangest things happen. This time I was super careful about restarting it. It's so weird.

Anyway as one feature of my super carefulness, this time I backed up every game before restarting the server, so at least we'll certainly be able to fix whatever's gone wrong.

Re: A call for aid!
 

Okay, I have some idea what's happened, but am teaching in a little over an hour and haven't marked their work yet. So I will fix it in a bit.
