Re: Hosting
 

I sent the .2h files to everyone. I think i fixed it now. Sorry, bad things happen before I've had my coffee.

Re: Hosting
 

Had some problems with the internet last night. So i gave up and watched the Superbowl.


Anyway.
Turn 7 out.

Re: Hosting
 

Cor, perhaps you could send an email to all of us with the nation names, so know each other's email addresses? Then we can do some diplomacy more easily.

Or do you guys think we should only communicate through in-game messages?

Re: Hosting
 

I think that is a swell idea. will do.

Re: Hosting
 

So wierd, I'm playing my first big game SP - Faerun small (specials are cool, never get the items though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif). 14 opponents, playing EA Sauro.

Just maxed research, all 9's, almost everything searched, leading in almost every categoy (cept forts)... and haven't been in a war yet. Even though I have wild hunt killing their priests. Then I come back to this game, do a turn and feel really, really weak http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Random Q: what do you guys do with all your researchers when you're done? I've got like 30 of em being pretty useless, more than half horror marked from lanterns. I'm pretty unclear about the upkeep of this game, so is it worth just killing them off? Or just send 20 mages in casting the 20 ancestor spell http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Coolest thing is I had an eater of the dead get charmed by a big indy earth mother... i had a gift of kurgi on him, so he was the toughest thing i've had to beat yet.

Anyway, turns in http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Bad news
 

Good news is that all the turns are in. Bad news is that everytime I try to end my turn it says something like "CRN: cannot open file" (I am not sure exactly what it says because i left that scrap of paper at home.) Anyway I will work on the problem. If its a problem only with my player then i may just turn myself AI or something...

The problem seemed to start when i transferred game files between an xp computer and the host, running 98se.( told you I was still in the stone ages.)

All this to say hosting will be delayed. very sorry. It has become clear to me that I need a more stable system. I am looking into both Vista and Ubuntu. And a reliable internet connection, not dial up.

turn 8
 

I found a temp work around. Turn 8 out!

turn 9
 

Turn 9 is out.

Things should start to become interesting, we are coming into contact now.

How are things going in the sea?

Re: turn 9
 

Dedas didnt even say thank you for the get-well-card and the 2 firegems. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: turn 9
 

turn 9 sent.
very curious how things are going to work out.. :-)
so much more fun already then playing against AI!

I'm off to bed! I will only have a chance to play the next turn before I go to work Thursday (8:00h GMT+1), otherwise it'll be Friday afternoon somewhere..

Re: turn 9
 

I'm sorry cupido2, I missed it. I will make it up to you, I promise http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.

Re: turn 9
 

look at the power graph at research. Notice mine flatlined. I wil give you two guesses what happened. Very annoying, but not as bad a the plague.

Re: turn 9
 

Ha! At least you have a research line http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Atlantis' early neighbors weren't playing nice.

Re: turn 9
 

Got all the turns in, Hosting is coming in the next little bit.

Turn something or other
 

Turn is out!

Re: Turn something or other
 

Got in all the turns early, so another turn is out!

Re: Turn something or other
 

NEW TURN OUTTTT!!!!!

Re: Turn something or other
 

New turn out.

Re: Turn something or other
 

oops, you sent me the .2h file! would you send the .trn please?

By the way, we have a nice playing speed! I like it! :-)

Re: Turn something or other
 

I had gotten a .2h file as well, just haven't heard back from Cor yet

Re: Turn something or other
 

same here

wrong files again
 

Thats what i get for being in a hurry.

Sorry guys. I saw your emails,i sent out the 2h files. That is a Problem. The files are on my PC at work. which means no hosting until Monday, because i am locked out of the office. ( i have your 2h files archived thru gmail, but i have been taking my turns during lunch at work, so i dont have that archived.) Things will be much easier once i get a good home internet connection (possibly in a few weeks) and we can more weekwnd turns. that will be fun.

turn is out
 

I think I have the turn out now (I HOPE). Sorry for the long wait, Forgot Monday is a holiday here in the US. Presidents Day, nobody really cares, they just get the day off.

Re: turn is out
 

Haha http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I got my turn.

Go pangea!

I plan on hosting this weekend. Right now I have 5/6 turns. I will check back in a while.

Re: Weekend
 

I sent my turn as well now

Re: Weekend
 

New turn out, I will check back in a few hours, if we have all the turns i will host again.

Re: Weekend
 

We have 5 of 6 turns in. Will check back in a bit.

Re: Weekend
 

Still waiting on pangaea. If you sent your turn, I never got it. No big deal either way.

Warning Hosting Emminent!
 

Still waiting on Pangaea. I am going to host around 5pm Chicago time. If I don't have Pangaea turn by then It will stale.

Re: Warning Hosting Emminent!
 

Sorry about the slow turn post. I had 3 midterms this week. 2 today, and 1 tomorrow. Calculus, physics and economics. Fun!

New turn out
 

turn 19, I think.

New Turn
 

Turn 20 out.

Re: New Turn
 

I have reveived turn 19, not 20. As I read in the emails there is a problem with the files.. Perhaps we should agree to all stale turn 20 or something if no solutions comes?
Has anyone been able to play turn 20 at all?

Re: New Turn
 

okay new turn is out.

Re: New Turn
 

ouch, this has gone a bit weird.. all leaders I recruited that 'strange' turn are somehow downgraded to regular units.. which means they lost all their magic skills and are pretty useless (near 1000 gold worth of commanders).
also, my beloved mercenaries left me in the mean time and they are nowhere to be found :-(

anyway, I assume all of us have similar problems?
well, at least I now have a truckload of gold to spend ^^

still curious how those battles went. not too well, judging from the army score graphs...

Re: New Turn
 

Yeah, one of my best mages lost all his skills and commander status and became a rather useless recruit.

Re: New Turn
 

OH! thats where that mage went. I thought he just dissapeared. Weird.

All will tremble before my mage with no magic or armor, for he weilds a dagger!

Re: New Turn
 

Now my fire drake commands my anointed of Ruax.

new turn
 

new turn is out, for those who have not noticed.

New turn and Proclamation
 

New turn is out.

"Whereas the peoples of Sauromatia are savages that flay the skin of slaves for entertainment,

Whereas the government of Sauromatia is rapidly expanding,

Whereas Sauromatia is engaged in open hostilities with our allies,

Whereas our agreement of peace with Sauromatia has reached its natural conclusion,

Be it resolved that the Mighty Republic Of Arco declares war upon the evil Nation of Sauromatia.

Furthermore, be it resolved that The Enlightened Republic of Arco invites all other nations, regardless of creed, to enter into a war of necessity to rid the world of the menace of Sauromatia. “


- The 607th Congress of Arco

Proclamation
 

Praise the enlighted nation of Arco which fights side by side with the Children of the Lava! Hear the words of wisdom of the arcocephalian philosophers and join the ranks and your grandchildren's children still will sing songs of your valor.

Re: Proclamation
 

It was meant to happen. My Enaries foresaw this. My Witch Kings shed the blood of many virgins tonight in honour of the Spirit of War, who is already roaming all of the land.

Every nation has its own wars to wage, and each has its time. Those that mingle in other's will be crushed beneath the feet of the Monster. It is foreseen.

As Fire can be quenched, magic will be silenced. The time is now.

new turn- weekend hosting
 

New turn, yes!

I plan on hosting this weekend. I will check fairly regularly and host whenever we get all the turns in.

Re: new turn- weekend hosting
