Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Awesome thanks Llama. I will try roll back the turn.
Now all we need to do is find a sub.
Is everyone happy for this to happen or would people prefer leave Pan as AI?
I will continue to postpone hosting until everyone has had a chance to reply.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

A thousand times yes! I have a hard time playing computer opponents, because I quickly fall into the "Durr...throw hordes of orderless dudes" mindset. I will happily wait untill a sub is found.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Vanheim has just lost and I guess Machaka will soon too http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
Maybe one of those two players want to play Pangea in this game?

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

In this case, though, I imagine lebar and I will want to re-do our turns. I don't know about him, but I would have done very different things if the Pans were not AI zombies. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Has someone tried PMing Ossa? He may want to take over. I will take over but only if no one else can be found. But I think it should be easy enough to find someone to sub in for the winning nation.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Hmmmmm. This does not seem to be working. Does anyone know what turn Pan went AI?

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

I think we must rewind to turn 68.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

OK. I will keep rewinding until Pan is back in the game.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Bad news. Game will only roll back to turn 69.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Hmmmmm. Well I was wrong. Just need to wait a while for things to take effect. I have now rolled back to turn 67 and still no sign of Pan.
Not sure if I am doing something wrong but the way Llama has set it up it looks pretty easy. I will continue investigating and post when I have some news.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

If a sub could be found for Aquarium, I'd be willing to come back here.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Maybe I could sub for you in aquarium? But 1st I have to work out how to sub you for Pan. Another to PM to trusty old Llamabeast may be needed.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Hrm. Well, keep us updated, and thanks for all of the hard work! By the way, our early game battles were awesome Zenphos. You easily had me withen an inch of my life.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

I know but I got cocky. It was fun game though. Seems there is a problem with the roll back procedure. Llamabeast is looking into it and will hopefully be able to fix it up.
You guys will know as soon as I do, unless Llamabeast posts something here and you guys read it before me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Right, success, it's all fixed - you're back on turn 69, and Pan is still in the game. You should just have got an e-mail from me explaining stuff. Sorry about the mayhem!

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Thanks again Llama. I think Leberjack will be very happy to not have to fight Pan, yet anyway. And he gets the pleasure of crushing my last few armies all over again. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
So sum1lost did you want to rejoin the game?

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Yes.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Sum1lost is back in as Pan. I suggest we just all pretend the last couple of turns didn't happen and resubmit our turns.
It is to my mind the simplest and easiest way.
Unless anyone is unhappy with this in which case speak up and let us know what your preferences are.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Can I request one more rollback, since Jon Arryn apparently staled turn 68?

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

I reckon we just play again from turn 69 and get the game going again.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Meh. Fair enough.

What was the global at least that was just dispelled by Ermor?

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Mother Oak http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif. Sorry dude. Also, pleasure to be playing with you again.

Re: Empires rising MA game for newish players
 

Dealing with an issue- can we please delay hosting by 5 hours?

Re: EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started
 

I would like to apologize to everyone in here who I've no doubt inconvenienced through my staling. I got stuck without almost any internet access the last two weeks with very short warning, and unfortunately, the forums were down in that time. I was able to get a friend of mine to sub for me in one game, but he only had time to do that one, unfortunantely leaving all of you high and dry.

Re: EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started
 

I will stop playing dominions for the couple of month to come. I have found someone willing to replace me in this game. Who shall I give the new email to register on llamaserver ?

This is a great game and I had a lot of fun. If someone is interested, I am looking for a replacement in another game, featuring EA Ulm and a forging powerhouse ;)

Re: EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started
 

Hi Leberjack,
If you are still around that is. I am still admin, although am happy to hand over the reins. I can switch you to an alternate email address. I am currently subbing for wookie who should be back in a week.

Re: EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started
 

This game appears to be more or less over. Ermor went AI two turns ago, and lost around 1800 troops last turn, and many more mages, in assaults on my invading armies which have been cracking forts every other turn. Ulm hasn't taken a turn since a few turns after I Most Treacherously backstabbed him. (which turned out to be a horrible idea, as my air queens all died and my pretender managed to suicide on his own Astral Corruption. (which probably took out a number of Ulm's higher level mages)

Even if Ulm came back into the game now, burden of time is probably well on its way to killing most of his mages, and my armies have had several more or less unopposed turns to do their own damage to him.

If it is alright with Ulm, I would like to request that the game admin end the game.

OOC: My apologies to Ulm for backstabbing him like that. To be fair, it came at a point when we were the only two serious contenders left.

Re: EmpiresRising MA game for new players - started
 

This was an excellent game. I learned a great deal myself about what to do, and more importantly, what NOT to do :). My hat is off to you for an excellent game.
