What do you mean ?

@bout Abysia : true, the counterattack of Ulm against Abysia has been very impressive, some nice little battles around there although I confess that I would not have bid a single gem on Ulm after the initial offensive of Abysia. That's a good lesson : do not rest near a vampire's fort. :cool:

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

I originally posted offering to sub in for Abysia to give them a last stand. But Hadrian had already sorted the problem by setting Abysia AI by the time I contacted him (and Abysia was the last turn outstanding for hosting). So I then went back and edited my message to the above.

My thought was everyone would just ignore my edited message, and this would help avoid confusion regarding where I'm talking about subbing in to make a last stand for Abysia one minute, but yet they ended up as AI the next turn. But obviously my plan resulted in an epic fail :doh: as evidenced by this very explanation :)

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

OK, sorry :laugh:

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Destroyer of Worlds (d9a4b2, I think). I'm not sold on him as SC, so I thought he could use ranged attacks to suppot initial expansion, then jumpstart a blood economy, and once that was up and running, with precision and penetration boosters, he could support a real army. He was cursed by a lizard shaman on turn 3, and chopped up by barbarians on turn 4, with afflictions piling up ridiculously quickly.

The vampire count you see near my territory did not affect me. Patala gets elephants, and I should have used them for expansion. I agree I should have sought peace, but I wasn't getting into blood with him dead, and my mages are also my priests, so by calling god, I was lagging in research. By turn 6 my situation was pretty hopeless. Bad luck, and worse decisions by me, and no good expansion routes.

See you next time

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

The last armies of Gath have been banned out of our sacred land, let the people of Arcoscephale and his allies sing and rejoice !

Alas, the Evil Priests left behind them a great deal of pain and destruction : during the few month they ruled the Sami Mantle, the two thirds of the inhabitants of our capitol have been slaughtered through blood hunt and pillage, ruined through taxes, and all the buildings of the City uselessly destroyed.

The people of Arcoscephale claims for vengeance. This is fair but futile : the Ennemy has been wipped and is no more haunting this world. So what ? Ladies and gentlemen, have pity and mercy of us. Any whisky around here in order to warm our bleeding hearts ? We shall gladefully trade any barrel of the Divine Liquor for 10 astral pearls, just PM.
:barrel:

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

you and all 4 of them lol. Go baalz!

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Unlikely as it is that I'll be able to fight off such a massive alliance after failing to secure a single ally myself, I will make them bleed like pigs. To the few players *not* attacking me you might want to consider what's going to happen when I'm not killing swarms of these guys each turn anymore. Marignon urgently calls for the last couple "independent" nations to rally to their banner. After I fall your owly slim hope will be that they turn on each other before eating the rest because they'll collectively have about 3 times the power of everyone else left.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Sorry, but blame your own well-known ingenuity for such a popularity. ;) And maybe too fast expansion. You thought your neighbors wouldn't be concerned while you kill us one by one? I prefer to bleed like a pig now to having no chance later. :D

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Do not listen to the silver tongue of the demon overlord of marignon. We are a group of nations who took it upon us to defeat marignon with great costs to our empires to protect the world from his rule.

After his attack and the following destruction of Caelum, everyone should see, that if we do not stand together against marignon, we will be killed one by one by him.

But sadly we have to rapport, that marignon has already a slave empire called bogarus, who took it upon themselves to walk around half the world, to engage me in my back.

btw. LA Marignon played by Baalz should be treated as LA Ermor and dealt with accordingly.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Well, this looks like straight baalzophobia. We may consider this new kind of pathology as another pernicious effect of the dominion of Dom3.

Do you still want you dominions 3, girls ?

And errrr, talking about Caelum, he stalled three turns in a rows, better set him to IA I guess.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

This is, quite unfortunately for me not a new pathology. Flattering though it is I have yet to pull myself out from under the 4-5 nation pileup that my inflated reputation seems to encourage.



He's got just a sieged cap. There seems to be a decent sized force in it but he seems to be inclined to force me to storm it. Hard to say how much longer I've got to chip away at that godawful thick wall though.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Ach, sorry about the stales, I thought I was dead already. Ok I'll try to make a worthy last stand.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

No, we had managed to pull at least part of Marignon forces on ourselves, if not much else. ;)

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Could you postpone today's hosting by about 12 hours? Thank you.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

sry, did not see your message soon enough

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Llamaserver says game crashed. What do we do? I'm for resending, what do others say?

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Well, let's hope that you can put up a good fight then. Antagonizing a single player makes the game boring unless it's ermor. Since you only got 2 baalz, at least I hope so, they should be fighting over them in the end. If you win then good for you.

Gath had a good run but too bad giants didn't like my icecream land of starvation or maybe they are all lactose intolerant?

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

There was some llamaserver problems, but it should be fine now.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

due to the last llamaserver problems, the hosting was on 36h, i fixed it,and we are back on 48h hosting time.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Looks like Pyrite crashed and disapeared form the llamaserver page :D

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Yep, same problem again. Sorry! I think I am learning though.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

hi!

im looking for someone who would trade dwarven hammers with me. Most probably we can work out something.

earcaraxe, from mictlan.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Aww, look what you guys did...Baalz turned AI:(, now the game is going to be less fun with a major player gone. I got a feeling I'll be ganged by all 7 neighbor players at once very soon...

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

why?

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Maybe because of too much territory and too high research for his own good? ;)
And yes, it's a pity that Baalz is gone. But I'd prefer that to being his next victim any day of the week. :)

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

The purge has been lifted, the beast driven form the gate. Still rings the forges of Caelum in the icy night, still flies the ravens on silent wings. Caelum will rise, do not stand in her way!

Err, perhaps not, but I still live. Huzzah!

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Excellent! We are happy that our help was not in vain! Emperor sends congratulations to you!

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Hum. Resurrection in heretic lands ? So weird... I will have to cut two or three heads amongst my astrologers for they did not tell me anything about those irrational mysteries.

But this is not the purpose of my presence here.

I am here to claim, Lords and Ladies and Bachelorettes, that War has been declared upon Atlantis.

At last.

Yes ! 't was about foocking time. And y'a know, maybe it is already too late. The True God will give us some signs about our fate soon or late. Anyway, Plotin the Wise said once in his Enneades : "It was not the duty of the Gods to win in place of the peaceful. The Rule is that at war, one gains his people's life and safety through fight, not through prayers" (free translation from your miserable servant, please have mercy for my weaknesses in english ;)).

So, Ladies and Lords and Bachelorettes, the point is now that I invite you to join the Holy Crusade Against The Evils Shrimps (or Worse), for They are now so Powerful and Ugly and... well, you know... that we will for sure need help and troops and love (and whisky).

Hence, gifts, allies and any form of effective help on the field are critically welcome.

Do not be shy. Just sign here. It's going to be so fun !

Sincerely Yours,
Herode the Everthirsty, Astrodiplomat of Arcoscephale.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Whisky especially. ;) Well, if I will be at your lands, I'll remember this. By the way, some time ago you said something about Bogarus attacking you or something. As I still don't see them nowhere close to me - what's with them and where they are?

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Bogarus attacking me ? Probably not, dear neighbourg : I never saw the smallest sign of their witches and I don't have any idea where this nation could possibly stand. ^^

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

The council of shambling shamblers was struck by the outrageous reports of deliberate attack from Arco without a sign of breaking NAP3 nor declaration of war. With this angering and saddening news, Hatteliar the ugly basalt king have been elected councilor of the new SS by the angry mobs of young foolish atlantians. Our beloved icecream dagon is too diseased and cursed to stop the inevitable says his spokesman the river naiad, "peace and love will no longer be the priorty of the icecreamland, now death and blizzard will play with the land!"

Hatteliar first act coming to power was to employ global policy of human genocide recently annouced by his new icecream truck Goebbols:

1. All humies found in our land will be frozen into cubes and transported to the concentration caves for later undead uses.

2. All humies found outside of ourland will age and die and frozen for later undead uses.

3. All humies that are still not born have a chance to live by crawling out of mother's womb and crawl into the new invention that our beloved Naiad discovered- The Refridgerator. It will turn yuckie humies into icecream loving Atlantians! Mothers of human kind, think of your children and buy them a refridgerator! It's only now 1g if you hand over your husband! Sold in your local caves.

Hattelair has also announced that all races inside the lands other than humans that cannot breath water be tried for witchery and blasphemy. The trial will comprise of 3 step process:

-First, victim needs to submerge underwater without floating for 1 hour to get to second trial.

-Second, you will wear the slave collar and submerge underwater without floating for 1 hour to get to the third trial.

-Finally, you will be inspected by a professional Angakok and be cast Control of Dead(Thau 5) which recently just discovered to vaccinate witchery for eternity.

This news reporter is in grave danger and will not declare his identity and cannot continue to write anymore due to an immediate danger.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

:p

Nice statement, Unholy Rotted Shrimp.

We from Arcoscephale the Peaceful Land, nevertheless notice that your words and the rituals you have just cast are an evidence of universal evilness and a straight Declaration of War upon all the earth (hence civilized) nations of this World.

I guess most of them will hear the threat and act accordingly. May the Three Thousand Incontinent Cats forever cast their Stinky Rain upon the heads of those who will not join the Crusade.

Also, I want to point some erroneous statement in your declaration :
No NAP has been signed between our nations. Arcoscephale went at war against Gath to help you, our warriors saved your people from a fast and bloody extermination, but no formal and quantified treaty has ever been signed.

Moreover, despite the provided help, despite the price paid by the people of Arcoscephale, while we were struggling against the last hordes of Gath, the Greedy Shrimps occupied some of our former lands and refused to give them back to us.

We saw that our help, our sacrifices were not rewarded in return.

We cried and mourned and moaned for our Lost lands.

We drunk a whole bunch of Holy Whisky Barrels along with our priestresses but no way, the offense was too rude.

Unfortunately, as you mostly live under the seas, the Three Thousand Inc. Cats are almost useless to blame such a piracy. The war was then the only solution.

Wasn't it ?

Long Live the Tuna Eaters !
Arco
:fight:

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

1. 1 wasteland province with 10g income 40 resource is all that you lost to me, it was taken to stage an attack to relieve your capital from Gath if your forces are not enough.

2. It was only after Arco attacked me that I casted Burden of time.

3. It was after the turn Arco attacked me did he declare war on here.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Our terrible lord, the great Smoking Mirror, has in His property many essences of earth which are no use to our people. We would like to trade them away for essences of water and death.

in the name of Smoking Mirror,

the rain priests

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

postponed by 12h for jomon

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Greetings, guys. Just to let you know that slayers_ai is going to sub me for a week. PM sent to hadrain with the email to set for Arco.

I will not have any reliable access to Internet during this time so don't bother about delays in PMs ;)

See you soon. And thanks to slayers for the help !
H., for Arcoscephale

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Sorry guys, but this game is getting dumb, don't feel like I am having much fun from all this ganging. I'll try to find a sub, can you postpone until then Hydrian?

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

game postponed

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

i would like a 24hrs postponement as im going away for the weekend, thank u very much,

earcaraxe

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

i'll postpone after the next turn is in

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Same as in Marakas and men:


You need to find a sub for Bogarus, I was unsuccessful in finding anyone yet - though chrispedersen may be interested;) I'll be off from tomorrow morning on, unfortunatly


I'm sorry I cant coordinate the takeover, in the worst case the admin should put Pythium to ai - which would definitly be a shame.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Set Pythium AI? I died on, like, turn 6! If you guys can wait til Monday, I'd be happy to jump back into a live nation like Bogarus in this game, though. I'm away for the weekend right now. No game and sporadic access.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Damn, too late to edit. My forgettable nation in this game was Patala. :doh:

Anyway, the offer still stands for Bogarus.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Welcome back, then. Bogarus seems to be in a good position.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

Im going to holiday, and i have sent the admin pw to Wrana if there should be problems.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

I'm afraid u forgot abuot this and i stalled.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

its offtopic, but i tried all the other options:

I need a replacement partner in the prepo2 no diplomacy team game. the game has just started (12th turn) and with special independents it seems very fun. PM me if interested.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

earcaraxe, please, state which nation and which era it is. If it's not too late already, of course. I, for example, may be interested, though currently I'm not in the best form.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

it was a rand game, thats why i diodnt write the nations.

thanks for the intention of help, but i have already found a new partner.

Re: LA CBM Game Pyrite upload Pretenders
 

As no attempt has been made to switch Bogarus to me, I will wish you all good luck with the rest of the game.

You should probably try to figure out what to do about Bogarus and Atlantis, though. :)
