Are we waiting a little longer for CyborgMoses? Or should we start looking for a replacement to take over Machaka?

Well, if you know any interested player, let them know about this opening: they can either play temporarily or permanently as Machaka, depending on their own wishes.

I was only thier while I was waiting for my castle to build. A building of a castle is no reason to attack some one! I was just building it for defense.

Ribbon- I think what you are looking for is Causus Belli - however, such "honorable" behavior among warring nations really doesn't apply to d2 since we are all pretender gods in a constant state of war with each other anyways. So to forestall an attack it behooves one to contact other pretenders to create temporary NAPs and alliances.

Now I would argue that if we stayed in theme none of us would ever ally (given the stakes) or that very few NAPs or alliances would ever form with a great deal more of treachery and backstabbing happening. However, depending upon the wishes of the players, a diplomatic tone gets set.

Basically, your default state with all neighbors is one of active war or inactive war with those you cannot see.

I might be able to play Macahaka temporarily, since I just quit my job and should have plenty of free time. But I definitely dont qualify as a new player so i will understand if you dont want me :}

I think if you were to play you'll need to handicap yourself. Say, give everybody all your income for 3 turns, evenly distributed, and give every god 2 magic items of any type. Then you can take over Machaka. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif


Just kidding. I'd rather have any player over AI, so I don't care either way. Just take it easy on us beginners.

Well, Im not saying its bad that he went to war with me, I am just saying that his reasons where wrong. He took my building a castle as an act of war on him!

Well Giants and men are enemies anyway.

Remember?

Ribbon: is your mail not working or some such? I still have to get your turn, and you are currently overdue (12 hours past the deadline).
