Re: Allegiances 2 (Large Team-Based Game, RECRUITI
 

I kept telling people that this would happen as well, but everyone told me I was crazy... so finally I stopped arguing this... hehe.

Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

Sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't, it's very strange. One source of confusion - I don't think it ever happens with PBEM.

Definitely safest to avoid doing it, in any case.

Can anyone else connect?

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

So, given C'tis has staled something like 5 times, and is currently holding up the game, I see three possibilities.

1) I can try to find a perma sub - this would require Argatha/Caelum to agree to stall our impending war for a turn or two for the sub to get his bearings. This would probably be an exercise in futility anyway as I'm anticipating a fairly lopsided war.

2) Set C'tis to AI and I can throw my lot in with Pangea/Arco which should make for an interesting fight considering the relative sizes of everyone.

3) I can go AI as well.

I'm not in a terribly strong position and don't have a strong preference one way or another, let me know what would make the most enjoyable game for all.

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

Well, I wouldn't be averse to accepting a concession, and I doubt DrP would, either, so it's mostly between you and the Pan/Arco team.

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

I'll talk with Thrawn. I actually don't have a problem conceding as well, but Thrawn might want to fight on.

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

I vote for all-of-you against Micah and me. Set C'tis to AI, and we'll see what we can do.

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

Just to be clear - I've got nothing against a mass surrender, I'd just like to trot out some of my stuff first.

I've got a major invasion of Mictlan scheduled for treaty expiration week, we've got all sorts of tartarians and things. These turns with the forge have been pretty involved and I want to test what I put together, at least a bit.

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

I would never dream of denying someone the joy of crushing me before the first shot is fired. As I said I'm not in a terribly strong position, but I'll do what I can to make your efforts worthwhile. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Ulm's been eaten by the snakemen, but I'm still getting turn notifications. Did I forget to do something?

Re: Crushing with extreme prejudice
 

After speaking with Thrawn and seriously looking at the map I'm going to concede to Caelum/Agartha and be putting Pangaea on AI after this next turn.

Micah and DrP did an (expected) great job. I really appreciate Baalz's offer to join us against the C&A, but the thought of putting C'tis on AI was not attractive at all as I'd have to divert forces to contain the AI up there.

As my first playing (either SP or MP) of Pangaea I made a few mistakes and probably would have done things differently. I probably also needed to coordinate and communicate with Thrawn better/more but playing in 4 games made this difficult.
