That's fine too if you're still here and want to hang on. I just assumed you'd given up (a pretty reasonable decision).

On a separate note, is there anyone with air-mages available who can make some flying boots for me? I have the gems, but absolutely no access to air.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I can make flying shoes.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

12 gems for two pairs of boots OK?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Ah, sorry - you just suddenly disappeared without a trace, and I assumed you had resigned.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I can make shoes, I have gems too. But if Marignon decide to put a real effort in destroying me he will probably succeed.

Well, you know, I've never seen the AI actually storm a castle in any game I've played. Has anyone else?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I can't remember. A dominion kill might be a bigger worry.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I believe the game is closing up anyway... there are to be some epic battles the next few turns at the throne of the world I think.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Ooh, the sound of a confidant man!

I've only just managed to fight my way out of the bunker. The Throne of the World is miles away.

I smell ozone. Must be lightning-fried-heathen...

I'm having a bit of a problem. Every time I try to log into either SOC game I get eternal sparkles. I know it is a problem on my end (though I can still connect to other servers) because I asked Truper to try connecting, and he was able to. The only reason I got my turn in was that he was nice enough to E-mail the turn file to me and upload the .2h that I sent back.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Um, I sent somebody 20 water gems, and I have no idea who. Did anybody get 20 water gems from me last turn, and wonder why? If so, you can keep them, but you have to be my slave for a week. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Hope you didnt send them to baphomet...

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Wouldn't that be great, Baphomet as Cherry's slave... *shudder*

Wha-PISH! Beg me, Baphomet! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

So which nation is Mark playing, so I can send him his shoes?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Jotunheim

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

So is this resolved yet?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

AFAIK not - his ISP still blocks most his ports because they, as they said, detected port-scanning from his IP.

Obviously, he can only connect on port 80 (HTTP), even email seemingly doesn't work at times.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif What to do then... Maybe he oughta be subbed or AId?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Well, my internet is working again. However, all my plans pretty much fell apart during the 3 turns I staled, and since I think C'tis is about to win anyway, does anyone mind if I go AI?

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I don't mind, at least, up to you. Can't remember if I'm winning though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Ah, so I was close to winning after all http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif Thank you all for the game, and enjoy your respective eternities as slaves to the Lizard!

Cherry: Your army was sweet! And it was cool how my Bane Lords walked all across the field in the storm and struck down your leaders, whilst the vine ogres and wolves opened the way. The one-turn battle in the fortress was quite an anticlimax compared to that.

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

No fair, I didn't even get to see the battle! :cry:

Edit: Ooops, based on God's Eye I thought I was unable to log in, but I guess that was misleading. Never mind my previous post http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

I considered tossing my decimated army at the throne of the world, but quite honestly Jurri's army would have eaten me for breakfast.

Oh well! Congrats Jurri!

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Yes, congrats, Jurri http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Your mass-protected infinite wolves would have overwhelmed me eventually, but if only my silly mages hadn't wasted all of their gems against your puny 7 sets of Ghost Riders, I at least might have killed all your Bane Lords. I mean, seriously - the Ghost Riders killed 3 of my 157 troops. Yet my mages used all 47 gems on them!!! That includes such things as a level-6 Air mage with 11 reinvigoration using 2 extra gems to cast wind guide, and 1 extra gem for mistform http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif. I had scripted a few Shadow Blasts for your MR-5 Ogres, and Wind Guide would have been nice as well...

However, it was a very entertaining battle http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif. Nice use of "Darkness", by the way. Casting it on the first turn would have pushed the battle even more in your favor, with my dwarves raining Blade Winds on my own army... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Shepherds of Creation Game 1 Thread
 

Thanks! The GRs were pretty uneffective indeed, at least in comparison with what they did to the armies of Atlantis, Pan and Abysia. Although draining your gems was certainly a priority for them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

The Darkness, well, I expected a more forward positioning and put a couple of the large area tangle vines first to immobilize your dudes, which could have been Vans (I had no info on what you had, you know http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif)... That was a waste, obviously, but the Vine Ogres were very expendable, as evidenced http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif Too bad I missed getting life after death by a turn, it would have undoubtedly made the battle even more fun with the infinite wolves changing into infinite soulless!
