Nice! i hope i won't be disappointed by this new shop.

I want dwarven hammer & forge lord.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Hinnom, man thank you so much, you've been sending me those gifts all the time, rings of regeneration, helmets, boots I guess you wanted your fellow Giants to dress in style.:)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Enjoy the loot :).

In hindsight this was not a good build to endure 2v1 for long which should have been expected going solo in a teams game.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

No to be honest if you weren't blood sacrificing I wouldn't have declared war at all. And at the moment after having destroyed like 5 of your temples your dominion is still increasing and mine decreasing so... I guess I picked the right time to try and stop you. Otherwise it would have been me that is vanishing.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Actually, I just started bsaccing since that's the only chance of knocking one of you off the map before I die.

Earlier I just had prophet bsaccing which shouldn't have been enough to domkill anybody.

I did have a lot of temples though, which spread Dom pretty quickly.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

It's been fun everyone. But unfortunately I got screwed by positioning and will soon die a dom kill, my first ever and boy does it hurt! To get killed not by battle but by DOMINION! It was inevitable I believe, since I am bordered by all other five nations... Dozens of priests counter preaching, an awake pretender and prophet... I tried to race to juggernaut construction but yet... It ends like this.

I give myself five turns at most, more likely three, and there is nothing I can do about it. The Blood Sacrifice is simply far, far too much for one in my position. Tons of provinces in the center will be freed. Do not be the last to grab them up.

They are... extremely gem rich. He who controls the gems, will win the game. I've got almost all the important artifacts, they will be free'd again. Forge them quickly.

Dwarven Hammer, Hammer of the Forge Lord, Dimensional Rod, Sword of Arlgmer, Sceptre of Dark Regency, it goes on.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Wow i wasn't expecting that !
and i m not even bsacking near our border.

But yeah you had one of the worse position on this map and low dom in mid of the map is deadly.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Well, that was a happy but unexpected announcement. :)

Seeing as that is my only chance to survive to the mid game with your insane research and magic dueling, communion wielding, golem raiding astral armies.

It seems that the 2 best have effectively canceled each other out as Hinnom has been depleted to the point where we have no chance of winning and Arco who is the wouldbe undefeatable in the game looks like he will indeed be domkilled.

So, I guess the question is who will succeed between the bad and the uglies.
