So when do we patch to 3.10? Velusion's server is going to be upgraded on Wednesday, would be nice of llamabeast did the same around that time too so we don't have to keep two dominions versions around http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

AARGH. I may need to stale randomly or find a sub or something, since my computer is being psychotic at the moment. For instance, I recieved not one, not two, but Seven Hundred and Thirty Three "A new patch is available" emals from the llamaserver. I'm not confident that my backup of dominions worked, so I might have to reinstall and patch up to 3.08.

everybody received that many emails from llamaserver... it was an error on the server, nothing to worry about. And i'm pretty certain you will need 3.10 now

I'll be gone for the weekend (from 12th day to 15th). Any chance to delay the hosting while I'm gone?

I might be okay, then...

Agartha is willing to sell Dwarven Hammers to those nations unfortunate enough not to have them yet. We accept payment in earth, astral, death gems (perhaps even other). Send me a message if you're interested.

Who killed the forge?

Doom Chicken gossip
 
I don't know who dispelled the forge, dispel is anonymous. I have my suspicions though. Offer for the hammers is still on though, I've spares http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Anyway, let's gossip. I'm hungry for news from other parts of the world, but I'll share a few things myself too.

War with the Yomi is in the full swing. I've repelled his raiders and started counter offensive, my thugs flying over his provinces and striking vulnerable points, with one of the armies getting as far as his capital (which is not particularly deep into his territory from my direction, though). The siege is on, but as his pretender and 2 Dai Onis, full magic gear and nasty army killing spells scripted - which i found by casting Call of the Winds at them, fortunately wasting most of their gem supplies last turn - are just one province away. Meanwhile though, with 2 other castles besieged by scouts with death wish, Yomi's recruiting ability is very limited, for a short while at least. A few provinces away a successful raid by 2 bane lords managed to capture province with 6 enchantress and slaughter the witches, as I'm sure most of you will hear with pleasure.

Mine and Yomi struggle has let Caelum catch the second breath. Now, with his capital free and provinces around being succesively liberated from Yomi grasp, while he's still in a weak position, there is a slight hope of recovery. Of course, such a recovery would require a diplomatic effort with winner of Agartha-Yomi war, and basing on my previous experience of Caelum diplomatic skill and attitude, seems quite unlikely.

A little beyond my eastern border Abyssia is continuing it's successful campaign against C'tis. It seems C'tis tried to eat something it can't swallow, specially now that rumors of Arcoscephale joining the fray come. Will they negotiate?
Perhaps other Arco or Abyssia neighbours will smell the opportunity for a back stab? Or will C'tis be destroyed whole, and if it happens so, will Abyssia and Arco start to fight each other over the lizards corpse as Agartha and Yomi did over bird one?

As the last piece of news, situation underwater still seems to be peaceful. R'lyeh and Atlantis have split the seas between themselves (though Atlantis has some holdings on the land too, i don't know whether R'lyeh does too). We ourselves have wondered for a while when this unnatural peace would end, but it seems both nations are too afraid to dare try to conquer all the seas. Or perhaps the frogs and the squids plotting together in collusion against all the land dwellers? We would welcome reports from other that support or rebut this theory.

That concludes the info from the north, let's hope others are willing to gossip too http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

In the southweast Sauromatia is engaged in a neverending war against the Kailasa and its foul otherworldly creatures...naked men who fight with the strength of 100 amazons, protected by enchantment, and surrounded by an aura so bright that our soldiers shy from striking them. Also some of them have decided to wear armor, and not just any armor but platemail. We have won both major battles, though the second only because of a communication error between their prophet and god which left their troops unblessed. We must also admit that we also made a grave mistake regarding the fatigue cost of sabbath master, leading to only one of four mages casting shadow blast.
Since every one of their troops is worth about 100 of ours, we suffer huge casualties, with the result that we are unable to press the attack, which means they pull more summons out of their asses. Also since they are summons, hurting their income doesn't do much, if any, damage. The end result being this war lasting forever.

Kailasian troops where able to resist vicious attacks from sauromantian savages now since 2 years. There where times when it looked really bleak but now it is looking a bit brighter.
Also we have to inform all the other nations, that now would be the ideal time to strike sauromantia as they have commited their main army in the very south.
