Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Thanks, We are happy to announce the creation of a new branch of our military. The name of this group is I-E-T-A. This stands for Illithids for the ethical treatment of amphibians. This wing of the Rylah military will consist of star children. Their goal is the elimination of gross polluters in their labs. Too long have the surface dwellers dumped toxic wastes into the oceans. This will stop. The races that donate 100 gold to this organization will be trusted to self verify. Those who don't will be subject to sneak inspections and if found in violation of the clean waters act will be terminated with extreme prejudice. Thank you for your cooperation...:D

Can't win them all. :hurt:

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

While frogs and feathered guys are clashing together, in a spectacularily ineffective way, may I add (The stench of burning frog and jaguar skins come over to Ermorian capitol), the Lands of Ulm are under savage pillaging from the brutes from north, who don't seem to care for their own defense at all. Nonetheless the ordered legions of Black steel will drive them back from our sacred forests.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Stop being a sore loser. Real gentlemen do not use lies and deceit to compensate for their lack of skill or luck.

I attacked you during turn 25. Considering turn 22 was the first turn after dissolving the NAP, fighting was to be allowed during 25, so please stop trying to harm my honor and integrity.

You also seem to have mastered the noble art of oxymorons.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

I guess Illithid humor is too deep for surface dwellers. In the interest of improving the intelligence of the surface people we are offering a free tuition to our fine culinary schools. We have a excellent course called "To serve man". I-E-T-A wants the best and brightest students, so in closing we want BRAINS...:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

The consensus among veteran players (QM in particular) is that there is plenty of time for brain eating *after* you take over earth.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

What is this brain eating you speak of? Are you referring to Illithids for the ethical treatment of amphibians? In other continuum's there is a group of humans called P-E-T-A. This stands for people for the ethical treatment of animals. So I don't get your comments. Please clairify.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Sore Loser...

You attacked early and it really doesn't matter one way or the other.

I was beat as soon as I saw I was hemmed in. I gave notice and thats that.

All YOU have to do is spend the time to take my few remaining Provinces.

I am having Fun just screwing around with ULM, His Prentender AND Prophet are dead now and he will be spending a lot of time chasing me around. But sooner or later Ulm will prevail and I will go on to another game.

So don't make it personal, its a game and once you make it personal it ceases to be a game and becomes something else.

Your integrity, That doesn't matter to me either as its all subjective.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Okay guys, take it easy, its just a game. We are here to have fun. Thanks.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Understood, my apologies to the rest of the players in this game.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Actually, the one true God, the God of Ulm is doing rather fine. He just had some succulent and delicious shambler flesh and seemed to be rather fond of it. The incompetent prophet was dismissed for not doing his duties well enough, and a new one will be shortly appointed.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

I have seen the duck of doom. Soon its ashes will be put to rest. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Sorry, The Hall of Fame showed your God dead...Must be Immortal.

I had never thought of that.:re:

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

The great kingdom of Ashod is ready to truly join the war of ascension. the forges below the great cities have been busy with the sounds of hammers on metal, and the magical chants of the various mages forging great items of magical power, and soon even the ancient ones will join our cause, and once again remind the world why the giant folk must be feared.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Just as a note, if it shows an death icon, it just means it has died at some point of it's life, not that it is dead at the moment. See the god of Ermor for instance. The false god has died twice. I have now banished him from existence. The same will happen to Vanheim for spreading lies and deceit.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

the nation of ashod has deemed that Ulm is to much of a threat to our nation, so we have initiated war on these armored heathens.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Yoinks, The battle of Charnel Valley was truly gruesome. Crust, you did quite well there. But don't worry we'll be back.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

the entire world seems to be fighting right now, so truly, the fun starts here

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

The duck of doom it quacks for thee.

Crust I cordially invite you to a new game. Its name is Joker. and the theme will be thematic humor. I hope that it will be hilarious.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

I find myself with a embarrassing amount of Frost Brands. So I will offer some of them up for sale. I would like to have astral pearls please.

Atlantis we should coordinate our moves a little bit. I don't want any unfortunate collisions with our army's. Ditto for Bandar log. Mictlan you've done a great job defending yourself. But I think your time is about up. Well once more unto the breach, Going forward is the orders of the day. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Mictlan, you have defended your homeland with both courage and skill. Atlantis concedes that we cannot defeat you nor you us. We therefore wish to enter into negotiations for a truce.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

We are glad to hear the noble Atlanteans have seen reason. Sea-creatures should not pick fights with the eagle or the heron.

How's about you put your money where your tentacles are? :p

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Heres my two cents. I think you'll be rather dismayed at the level of magic I now have. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

The nation of Ashod is now on the wane, after a mildly effective campaign against Ulm the tides have turned, though we may have lost the battle, we shall not give up the fight, but it is now how much we can do now rather then a fight to win.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Recently the false god worshippers, big giants from the desert west from Forges of Ulm, the Ashdod, decided that attacking Ulm was a a good idea. Lately though, having beat the weird horned giants back with very minimal losses, and having started to siege the first castle of the few desert cities that the nation of Ashdod posesses, the priest smiths of Ulm can not but wonder;

"Why did they attack us? What did we do to them? Taking our provinces with force brings them nothing but harm. But they must be repelled, and punished for their insolence and arrogance. There can be no Ashdod in the struggle for godhood."

Cladding their forces in mighty black steel, arming their troops with great black halberds, battleaxes and flails, the forces of Ulm, the worshippers of the True God march forward, towards the desert cities of Ashdod. The false god must be beheaded, his disfigured and flayed head displayed over the prime gate of Capitol of Ashdod. Mark our words, their god shall fall. Storm of iron will wash upon their land, leaving it purged of this false faith once, and for all time to come.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

the reason why the nation of Ashod decided that it was time to go to war is because of one simple reason, with no access to any other route of expansion, and seeing what had happened to the nations around you, the council came to a very simple conclusion, either we launch a war now and hope for the best, or die slowly as we watch the game go by while we sit on the sidelines. So we launched our armies, and prepared for what was to come. Though it was a failed attempt, it is better to die fighting, then to die in bed.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Quite true Hunt11....

As one who is running around with 1 pitiful army behind the Nation of Atlantis lines, with the only fate left to us is to be a big Pain in the backside to Atlantis.

Tying up a Couple of small armies chasing me and playing a game of Chess for the last 8 or 9 turns, Taking a Province..setting the taxes to 200 and moving on.

But the Sands of Time are running out as I slowly run out of options. More armies show on the horizan and our backs our agianst Mountians.

I think of a Spartan Mother talking to her son leaving on his first expedition. "Come back VICTORIOUS....or come back on your Shield"

As you fight on Hunt11 I will be brought back on my shield...but we will see each other agian...in the halls of Valhalla where only those that die with a sword in thier hand may enter!!

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Hey Gb, you still kicking? Of course you are, Stalwart warrior that you be. You've been kinda quiet over there. How about a story, I'll give yah 100 gold if its a good story. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies:Server is UP
 

Either your army is so insignificant that I didn't notice (and Vans can swim);) or you're confusing us with someone else. Either way your post has caused a lot of confusion among us fish people. We aren't well known for our intelligence, as a few of the battles with Mictlan exposed :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

DUH...it was the OTHER blue Flag, ULM!!

No worries tho after a long run we got tired and went ahead and attacked a Fort and lost.

Only an army, No leader so I went AI this turn as he will kill the army at his leisure.

I accomplished what I wanted...Thanks to all for the game, see you ion the next one:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

It's been fun GrudgeBringer, and by the looks of it, i will soon be joining you

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Joten, You have angered the Nation of Rylah! It is turn 45 and I announce that our nap is canceled. That global is just too much to endure...:D Turn 48 hostilities will commence.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Jotunheim, with those globals you have declared war on the world. We renounce our NAP with you and will consider ourselves at war on turn 48. Atlantis calls on every nation to forget your petty differences and confront this menace before its too late.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Oh and GB, no worries about the confusion. Good to hear you had fun. See you around!

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

What, I thought I just lacked some necessary income and put up those globals, I couldn't guess it would have such violent response. Is it already too late? I only want to coexist in peace with you.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Tell you what, If you put those mages on the coast so I can kill them, I'll let it slide. Harrumph, not bleeding likely. I want some giants for some esoteric building projects. They will make great slaves...:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Those globals did not go unnoticed. Ulm is preoccupied on the other side of the continent at the moment though, So we can't rally to your aid right now. We have some sandgiants to slay.

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

In view of arcane nexus being up, I ask everyone refrain from casting and forging, Please collect your astral gems and prepare to put them in a common fund. I'm researching dispel as quickly as I can. Thanks. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Ulm's sieging force have been routed by the so called sand giants, after a massive display of magic power Ulm was forced to retreat, and the first major victory for Ashod was achieved. Here are the battle stat

Friendly Combatants
commanders 25, killed 1.
regular units 17, killed 11

Enemy Combatants
commanders 13, killed 6
regular units 390, killed 227

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Joten, We come for thee... :D[IMG]http://imgboot.com/images/Leo/600xpo...erylarylah.jpg[/IMG]

Please send your best and brightest students. They will be schooled. Bwaha ha ha...:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Since i am still alive, could you stall the game for Friday and Saturday, because i will be gone those days, and will not be able to get my turns in

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Sure, but remind me on thursday.:D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

I'm pleased to announce the first student has been welcomed to the Rylah School of Cuisine. He shows promise since he's a Ice Devil. I hope he does well and graduates soon. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

okay then bwaha could you please stall the game until Sunday, thanks

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

It is done. I've a question, can I rename the ice devil after GoR? I hope so. I've got plans. :D

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

Uh guys, Joten is fielding a fair amount of devils. SC devils. Its time for all of us to put a stop to him. I'm not doing so well and need some help. I'm going to fall back into the oceans soon and he'll have free reign on the land. I guarantee you won't like what I'm fighting, and if left to his own Joten will win the game. :eek:

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

well if ulm decides to leave me alone, i could show him what a SC really looks like with my giant kings

Re: Storm. New Game for Newbies: Game is on!
 

sorry......... seems too late...
