I do appreciate the turn extension.

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

I have the problem that I will be AFK between 30.3. and 2.4. as well as 6.4. until 9.4. - anybody would like to replace me for that time?

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

Thanks for telling us in advance. I'll go look for a sub for you, if that's alright.

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

Also, I think I'm going to have to throw in the towel soon. Bogarus too stronk.

I don't know. I lost a lot of mages in that battle

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

Ehm. You lost 21 communion slaves (mostly because you still don't know how to keep a communion from dying quite yet :p, you're missing one key spell, also an inefficient/weak setup for Bogarus). That being said, you have 5-7 forts up (I lost count after five), and are 200% overtaxing a territory full of farmlands and plains (whilst I'm stuck with mostly mountains and wasteland). So even if you did lose 20-22 mages (really through no interference of myself), you can replace them quite quickly, and without any real strain on your economy. As for me, I just lost over half of my army right there, and really accomplished nothing (besides giving you targets to fatigue your mages to death :p ), and I've lost my Bane Lord counters, sadly, so I've got nothing to counter your flying thugs. You're playing an nation based on medieval Rus, there's no way I'm outattritioning that (:D). My research is insignificant compared to yours (you having hit at least 3 level 5 research marks, and a level 4 research mark at a minimum), and my gem income quite frankly sucks.

I'm not quitting mind. I'm going to make life difficult as hell for you and Pangaea (;)), but at this point I'm acknowledging there's no realistic way for me to win this game (or to turn around the inevitable fortunes of this war), short of multiple divine interventions. And even then that requires everyone else to hand me a blank check.

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

You are correct. You can't out-attrition the Russians, but the leadership has to get better. My 2nd attempt at communion worked better than the first. I'll have to see if I can get the setup and the spells just a bit better.

On another note: Ermor has been quiet. I hear rumblings that Bone Daddy is spreading his death message further and further.
Cheers

It's not even that. I didn't even win that battle, and you're going to take another fortress, so it can in no way shape or form be even considered anything besides a decisive victory for you.

Tch, you're just using Ermor, C'tis, Pangaea, and likely Rl'yeh as distractions so people ignore your ascent to power via magic. Lots and lots of magic.

Re: BSoD (Newbie, LA, CBM 1.92) [Started!]
 

Look ah HoF. Almost exclusively athlanteans, all but one of them are still alive. I think that`s what happens when water mages spam Cleansing waters at Ermor. Or, maybe, death mages spam Wither Bones? Anyway, if in couple turns half of them are dead - THEN we are in trouble.
