Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 
I just posted the turn to IW, can you pause the game while we're waiting for their answer? I'll try to test the problem on weekend if I have time, but so far I don't know what to do in this turn (as it definitely makes no sense to spend gems on enchantments if they're not working).

Added 72h. I'll add more if needed.

I've delayed the host again. However I don't want to do that indeterminably for fear that the game would get stuck/wither on account of this technicality.

We don't have an ETA on a resolution and besides what is the expectation, to get a patch now?- doesn't sound likely...

I suggest we put a deadline on the waiting - this weekend. After the deadline we cont. the game. Makes sense?

So next host is scheduled for 08:15 GMT on Friday October 1st

Remaining players have agreed to concede the game to LA Ermor.

Thank you to all the players who took part in the game.
Thank you thejeff for doing a great work as TC sub.

Kudos to my main rival this game: Dimaz. You did an outstanding job and exhibited great proficiency in managing Gath. Next time I'll do everything it takes to avoid getting into a war with you :)

I saved my turns if anyone is interested in taking a look.

Short AAR:

My build was awake rainbow master lich, drain 2, d3, l3.
luck 3 was so-so in practice, not sure I'd take it again in similar circumstances.

Early game:
Got attacked by Pythium and this was actually the closest I came to being defeated. Managed to pull through and conquer Pyth and then expanded to end up with a well sized kingdom

Mid game:
Got into the first war with Gath. All the while Pan was forging a huge empire in the north. My hands were tied as Pan got very big and put up some dominant globals.

End game:
Together with TC, and for a shorter time Gath, faced Pan's armies. Some drama in the globals section saw Gath casting UD thus hurting Pan big time. At some point Pan went AI and left were TC, Gath & Ermor. After I don't remember how many turns of war against Gath game was conceded to Ermor.

Below are last turn stats from server:
Provinces
Nation Provinces
Ermor 68
T'ien Ch'i 26
Gath 45

Note: I think there's a bug in the score stats. Ermor armies were way beyond 32k with with all those provinces and temples at dom 10 and soulgate.

I think I promised to return to this thread and say 'told ya' when Ermor wins, or apologize and agree that LA Ermor is not overpowered if it doesn't.
Well, here I am.

Told ya!

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 
HoF statistics clearly support your claim.

Strangely enough Ermor didn't seem so strong in early game when it couldn't recruit mages and all it's undead armies were insta banished by Pythium.

I suspect that secret of Ermor's power is more subtle. It may have more to do with Psychology than with raw power.
Perhaps the cost-reward ratio of attacking Ermor makes it an unattractive target. Perhaps it's something else.

I don't know. I do know that MM is hvy and that I am content to settle for this one time MP experience with this unique and interesting nation.

Re: Sharivar - LA game 4 bussy ppl, running
 
Congratulations.

I came in late and didn't really get to do much other than try to hold off Pan's hordes, but it was still a good game.

If Pan hadn't lost its leader mysteriously, things might have been different. Certainly more prolonged. Ermor didn't seem to have a clear advantage over Pan until then.

As for the bug in the stats, I'd noticed awhile back that Ermor's army size graph had maxed out. Oddly it's the same number that the research charts top out at. It may just be a cap on the display value. Not really significant, I suppose. Once you've got more the 32K troops does it really matter how many more?
