Go big or go home, eh? Sounds good. Having an awake SC pretender is a good move on a crowded map, then.

And there was me thinking it was a rather spacious map. I planned for fast expansion but it sounds like I definately got a nice start location.

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Friends of the family are coming to stay with us Wednesday night. They are only staying the one night but i don't think i'll be able to get a turn in on Wednesday. So, after this turn (or the next as appropriate), can you please extend the deadline by 36 hours or so to accommodate this small inconvenience? I will be able to get a turn in tonight (Tuesday) and Thursday.

Please confirm receipt of this request Anaconda.

SCIENTOLOGY NEWS:

The Church of Scientology, Pythium Chapter, is happy to announce that its most beloved prophet, John Travolta, has achieved the ‘Operating Thetan’ level of THREE. He has effectively gone through what is called the ‘Wall of Fire’ that surrounds a previously impenetrable whole track mystery. With this accomplishment, John Travolta, Prophet of Scientology, Scout of Pythium, has achieved the Thetan levels required to free himself from those influences that prevent him being his whole self. He is now free of the whole track overwhelm that has previously trapped him. He has confronted and eradicated the fourth dynamic engram that has plagued this universe for millennia.

Furthermore, the The Church of Scientology, Pythium Chapter, is happy to announce that its commander, Tom Cruise, has achieved the ‘Operating Thetan’ level of TWO. He has confronted the hidden area of his own existence on the ‘whole track’ and vast amounts of energy and attention have been realeased. He has experienced a resurgence of self-determinism and native ability, and unlocked the aberrative factors on the whole track and now achieves the ability to confront the whole track with his whole self. Hopefully soon he can join John Travolta on Operating Thetan level THREE.


If YOU are intrigued by these success stories and would like to learn more about the Church of Scientology, Pythium chapter, we invite you to come down to the Center East Mall on Thursday morning and speak to one of our ‘E-meter’ operators. While there, you can maybe learn about the influences that are preventing your spiritual mass from gaining its full capacity to engage the ‘whole track’.

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
I postponed the next host but on the other hand you could play your turn right now! Maybe well get new ones already this evening (GMT/UTZ). If we do, Ill postpone the second hosting also.

Immaculate November 1st, 2011 03:34 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
i'll be able to play this turn no problem- just not the wednesday one.

Immaculate November 2nd, 2011 08:51 AM

Who's picking on Shinuyama?

EDIT: green cat; you can get PMs?

The Scientology Creepers- Pangean Long-Hair Defensive Axis Pact,

The nations of Pythium and Pangea do hereby commit to the defense of one another in the event of an attack by the nation of Vanheim.

Signed,
John Travolta, on behalf of the Pythium Senate and the Church of Pythium Scientology.



To Vanheim,
This is not an aggressive move on our part, but merely a commitment to ensure our continued survival in the face of a nation we both consider a potential threat to our continued existence. Again, not a threat or aggression on our part- merely a defensive alliance.

Hahahaha

Such feeble speeches as you huddle together for safety like frightened children.

Drukchfgol has no pity for you, pathetic mortals!

We wish to publicly thank the Machakan nation for their generous gift of Black Hunter hides. Our skilled artisans have discovered that, when linked intricately together in a proprietary weave pattern, the hard glossy bits make for excellent, lightweight samurai armor.

Unfortunately, one of the spiders in your delivery was not yet actually dead - so we hope you do not mind that we returned that one. If you wish to kill it and send it back, we would be ever so grateful. We would suggest that your own armorsmiths make a suit of fine mail from it, but, based on the warriors who accompanied your gift, we understand that your people eschew armor (or, indeed, clothing).

We tried to make use of the rest of your gift, but we found the meat to be, er - disgusting. In the end, we simply mixed the meat with the entrails and any odd bits of goblin and Machakan that happened to be lying about the field, and let the goblins have a grand feast.

All those spiders were insane after eating Wyrm meat.
They wanted more.

Anaconda November 6th, 2011 03:16 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Postponed 12H because if there is an unexpected need I cant come and do it later tonight anymore.

But please keep up the good pace anyways if you can!

Anaconda November 7th, 2011 03:57 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Again, postponed 24H. This time its me. I got an extralong working day ahead of me, I cant get the turn done before late tuesday night.

Bullock November 7th, 2011 05:09 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
nvm

Immaculate November 11th, 2011 10:22 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Sorry to be a problem but a storm took out our power at home and i can't play my turn (i'm writing this from work). Can you postpone 1 day?

Thanks.

I.

Anaconda November 11th, 2011 02:46 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
done

Anaconda November 12th, 2011 03:58 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
What a waste. Those young peaceloving giants sent to their graves by their cruel masters... they died for naught. Now their frozen bones decorate the great wall in Hell, waiting the final catalysmic battle and opportunity to die for their masters again. It will never come, thou. And their masters join them soon enough.

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you will remember if we were good men or bad, why we fought, or why we died. No, all that matters is that two stood against many, that's what's important. Valor pleases you, Crom, so grant me one request, grant me REVENGE! And if you do not listen, then the hell with you!

Immaculate November 14th, 2011 05:57 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
I have to say i am really enjoying this game and the war i am fighting in. I am stuck unable to look at the turn until late tonight but i am very eager to see it. Green cat running Vanheim has done some very impressive things that i was not at all expecting and i must admit the surprising twists he has thrown at me have greatly added to my game- now if only he could come to understand that Scientology IS a real religion and not just a cult to be stamped out.

So yeah, thanks Green Cat.

My spies report a clean victory at your cap :)

Immaculate November 14th, 2011 06:16 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
for who?

Also- if i move forces from outside provinces to my fortress while also breaking the siege will they attack together or separate?

Also, should i attack an enemy province with more than one army (from more than one province) and the enemy move, will my forces always move together and either catch the enemy army or not as a whole or is it possible that only some of my forces will fight the enemy at once then the other force will converge and fight by itself (or miss the enemy as it moves away)?

I guess the last two questions should be posted in the main thread but since this is a NOOB game... its worth asking for everyone's benefit right?

Bullock November 14th, 2011 06:21 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
For you ofc ! Considering your last announcement we are supposed to be in the same side lol :)

Together unless you move trough magic ways.

I am sorry for my stale, it will never happen again, crazy week.

Anaconda November 17th, 2011 04:48 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
My bad, I didnt notice you were staling...

Morla November 18th, 2011 09:24 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
It is my responsability to send the turn in time or if i can´t ask for an extension.

Immaculate November 18th, 2011 10:51 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
green cat- we need to IM or chat or something. can you turn on your PM system?

Immaculate November 22nd, 2011 12:27 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
would it be possible to take a thanksgiving break? (23rd to 29th)

Anaconda November 22nd, 2011 01:02 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
frikkin' US holiday season... sure, I'll try to postpone the turns.

Immaculate November 22nd, 2011 01:33 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
sorry- if i am the only one i can probably find a sub (never done that though so whats the process)

Anaconda November 22nd, 2011 01:57 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
no need

Immaculate November 22nd, 2011 02:34 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Thank you Mr. Anaconda.

Immaculate November 28th, 2011 01:46 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!

Anaconda November 30th, 2011 11:04 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Hosting interval changed up to 48H

Immaculate November 30th, 2011 12:56 PM

who's beating on abyssia?

momfreeek December 3rd, 2011 10:23 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
I assume Vanheim left. Switch to AI?

Lets hope machaka comes back, it'd be nice to get back on a schedule without having to wait a full 48 hrs between turns :/

Bullock December 5th, 2011 04:51 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
yeah i guess green cat has fled the field.
i'm also for turning him AI if he has a 3rd stall in a row.

RonD December 5th, 2011 04:01 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Hah! Rather than an honorable fight to the death between the two nations with the suckiest starting positions - the chicken sh*ts of T'ien Ch'i have begged (paid) big bad Jotunheim to come do their fighting for them. The "brave" :haha: TC warriors can almost be seen - peeking out from behind their Jotun mommy's skirt.

Somehow I doubt that this will work out in TC's favor, no matter what 'promises' have been made.

Hylobius December 5th, 2011 05:15 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
TC has not begged, paid or even asked Jotunheim, or anyone else, for assistance.

Sez you!

I happen to have right here in my pocket the hand of Jotun's messenger, still clutching his scrap of paper. It reads:

Unfortunately. Tien Chi changed their mind. Seeing as neither of you were willing to pay what i wanted I have taken back my sea and will continue to watch with interest.

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Jotunheim contacted me and attempted to extort earth gems in exchange for attacking Shinuyama. I declined.

momfreeek December 7th, 2011 05:14 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
But you were not so dismissive of the idea at first:

But I do not hold a grudge over such petty grievances. Honour is the folly of mortals. And I am still open to offers.

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
scientology needs fire or death gems and will pay in water.

If you want 15 water gems and are willing to pay 15 fire gems, please hit me up.
If you want water and can pay in death we'll buy up to 40 death gems at a one to one ratio.

Bullock December 11th, 2011 09:00 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
can we turn Vanheim AI please ?

Anaconda December 11th, 2011 09:43 AM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
Can we like destroy him instead?

Turning him AI aint that easy...

Immaculate December 17th, 2011 01:46 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!

Immaculate December 17th, 2011 02:39 PM

Re: Cursed be Iron - THE GAME IS ON!
 
I will be out of country from the 24th to the 2nd. If i am the only one i can look for a sub but if there are others who cannot play, they should say something maybe and we can put this on hold for the week?
