Re: RE: 2400 gold down the drain.
 
Why don't you send it like maybe 5 or 6 turns later? That way it wouldn't matter if we knew where your forces were half a year ago.

I must say that man has a whole lot of indy knights raiding his provinces. Scales like that, you don't need legionnaires pouring down from the north.

But, like I said, the nation of pythium is goodhearted.

Sure... Sounds good, Starshine Monarch. Anybody else willing to save a turn to share later?

You know you've lost a battle when the results read regular units lost , -25.

Re: RE: 2400 gold down the drain.
 
The nation of Atlantis, with its repeated aggressions, has given the nation of pythium reasonable cause to suspect its duplicity.

The nation of atlantis has encroached on pythium territory without sending any clarifying messages. The nation of pythium has further waited to respond to said aggression (as the first attack was of an extremely ambigious nature), even unto sending messages requesting clarification. None has been forthcoming. Instead, the nation of atlantis has continued to attack positions held by pythium. Pythium therefore demands an explanation from the nation of atlantis.

Hmm... I've dramatically suicided my troops. I hadn't meant to do that... but there go my oracles. I'm going to stay in the game for now, but I'm eventually going to go AI if I can't figure out a way to retaliate. I think R'lyeh isn't interested in peace, but I did kill two thirds of those 60 commanders.

So, I'm sane now, won't go AI without a specific warning ahead of time, but just letting people know so they can prepare. If I go AI, I'll try to warn you three turns ahead. I'll be focusing on retaliation at the moment, but I'll also consider wrapping up any loose ends of trade and whatnot, and what, if anything, to do with my treasury if my capital is taken.

I would be interested in negotiating peace between Man and Pythium, followed by trying to talk man into striking R'lyeh while his army is still devastated. If I can pull that off, I'm probably not going to go AI.

So, lessons learned...
Planning war against R'lyeh? Prepare for Mind Hunt, and Lead Shield your best or most likely targeted units.

Find a chokepoint, and patrol it with around 80 units- it's a big help on reducing Assassinations.

Oracles do fairly well up near the front of your formation.
With regard to large armies and the spell Blade Wind, 2 oracles are not enough. Four is necessary if you want to use Blade Wind decisively. If you're just using two, while the other two buff, it'll have an impact, but not a decisive one.

Long ago, I switched away from AT&T, to Bellsouth internet, because I was unhappy with their service. AT&T bought Bellsouth. Now I can't friggin attach anything to my email, today. We'll see if I stall. I may setup a free email account for dominion games... any recommendations?

Gmail is excellent. I'm sending you an invite.

Thank you both. Llamabeast, will the server know what to do if I send my turn in from a different account?

Edit: Actually, I can probably test that myself and have an answer in five minutes.

Edit: Cool. IT works. And while they both have advertising, so to does my paid for email account.
