Thank you for putting up a good fight. I spent many enjoyable hours trying to figure out how to beat on you.

Honestly your map position, trapped against the edge, was the main problem. On a per-gold basis, your sacreds are better than mine, and your archers, in quantity, can be effective getting rid of my pesky glamor. OTOH, every time you spend 200G on a commander, that is useless in combat until battle magic gets researched; whereas my commanders are all sacred thugs out of the box. Which is why I realized I had to attack you very early if at all.

Anyway, GG. Next go-around, I hope we won't be adjacent, or if we are, that I find out who you are sooner so I can talk to you.

It's a crying shame, I was quite enjoying that. And I was about to start chewing on Ermor, too =/



Anyway, count Mictlan in for the next game, though I might tinker with my pretender.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

Well, I think Oriana (wrap around will fix all those problems of being pushed into a corner.

My problem....LOL

My problem was Hinnon on my underside and Caelem made a pact with him so I was the sacrificial lamb.

I think/hope I made it hard enough on him that it would put him behind as I was fighting a guerrilla war and was about to lose my Cap.

Thanks to all those anonymous nations that sent me gold and gems

I think the only way to beat Hinnom early is make him pay for every battle as he is so resource intensive.

ME....why heck, I'm just a peaceful 'ol' nation that likes everyone. I cry every time I even have to take an indie province.
So remember that you Mom's would be ashamed of you if you attacked a defenseless nation:D

I think it looks like we can get another one started, just need to hear from a few more and we will start a different thread.:up:

I approve the Orania map.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

I'm game for another round. Maybe a map that has more provinces/player this time?

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

Count with me I'll play with vanheim.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

I'll jump in again as Pan. However, I find the Orania map incredibly annoying and ugly, so if we could avoid it that would be great. Personally I like Cradle a lot, but that isn't wraparound.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

Wouldn't mind a restart, congrats Caelum.

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

ok i'm back! sorry it took so long, but as life usually goes, thinks were FUBAR at the worst possible day for me.

like i said, the vp thing is probably my fault, sorry.

i thought i could just unstart the game, but it appears i can't, so we will have to have people re-submit their pretenders. hopefully most of you guys are still up for the game.

re-map
personally i agree with Trumanator, and don't really like oraina, what about PashaDawg's Asia Twist? its roughly the same size, and wraparound.

Edit: the only thing is, with Asia twist, we will need two more water nations, but that shouldn't be too hard

Re: Vicious Circle2 Upload pretenders
 

I just played a practice on Oriana...It is an incredibly boring map.

I had a Capitol surrounded by 5 Fertile regions. I couldn't spend money fast enough and STILL had about 4700 by turn 12.

I looked at other areas on the map and they where pretty bleak...

Wrap around maps are OK (actually I liked Darkheavens as it was easy on the eyes) but for the most part they are VERY...errr, colorful and are hard to stare at for any length of times.

I am going to propose that we use the standards and Streamers Mod so we can see each other better.

Suggestions gentlemen
