Re: Calista?
 

If Callistas went AI, it would totally ruin our game.

TURN 33

Re: next turn is up!
 

TURN 34 is up.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Turn 35 is up.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Argitoth! That battle was hilarious! A real roller-coaster. But what happened to your god -- did he die of fatigue at the end?

Re: next turn is up!
 

Oh, no, I see Argitoth the Father of Serpents tower over the others in a nearby province. I was looking at the wrong battle report.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Turn 36 is up.

Re: next turn is up!
 

WHAT? Is it gang up on Vanheim Day?

Re: next turn is up!
 

PSH!!! LOL That battle *was* funny. But don't you think EVERYTHING ELSE on the battlefield would have died first? seeing as how my pretender has 20 times more health than any unit including lots of regeneration? hmm?

Re: next turn is up!
 

Turn 37.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Turn 38 is up. Callistas either staled or took his turn but didn't post to the thread about the new turn.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Looks to me like he staled cos he hasn't done his turn.

Re: next turn is up!
 

man took his turn

Re: next turn is up!
 

Funny that he didn't go ahead and take his turn 38.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Not really - some people prefer to take some time away from the game, to think over what they're going to do. Not so much in the early game, but definately by whenever there's wars between player nations.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Turn whatever, is up. I think it is turn 40. Hard to keep track when you are getting hammered like I am.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Hammered as in beaten like a dog, not getting drunk. Although a few beers sound nice at this point.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Heh. Had a very nice pumpkin ale here today; went to my favored IPA after a pint, but thought the spices were rather nice. Good stuff, if not quite as good as the brewpub back in TPA.

Re: next turn is up!
 

Well, you know, we have the best handcrafted ales, as well as brewpubs, up here in the PNW, but that doesn't always jibe too well with a well-played turn. Still, it lets you deal with those humiliating losses a little better.

Re: next turn is up!
 

TURN 41

Re: Server (-\\rgitot/-) *Running*
 

Tuen 42.

Re: Server (-\\rgitot/-) *Running*
 

It is now Fall in the year 4 of the ascension wars.

HOSTING DELAYED
 

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Heh? Did you delay hosting on my account?

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

No, delayed because some of us need more time to finish our turn even though we ended it. I do. I think Lingchih also does.

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

If everyone is ready for me to host, reply telling me so. I'll host as soon as everyone has replied. (excluding Callistas) Or I'll host at the designated time.

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Well, I'm fine here.

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

I'm ready.

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Rrready!

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Host away.

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Lol, dispite your responces, I wasn't able to host...

IRL stuff... TURN 44

Re: HOSTING DELAYED
 

Turn 45.

Manikin Madness
 

Uh-oh. Argitoth has this combo where his mages cast "Swarm" and then when the dragonflies die they turn into Manikins. And then when my troops die *they* turn into Manikins.

Is anyone besides me interested in Dispelling his global spell? Would it be worth it or could he throw it back up again as fast as we could dispell it?

I can't cast Dispell yet, myself, but I can contribute some Pearls.

Any other advice? You know it's in your best interest for Argitoth and me to keep slugging it out in the southern hemisphere, rather than for him to march over my entire nation with this combo.

Signed,

Bphlah the Firey

Re: Manikin Madness
 

It only works in his dominion. Try pushing his dominion back.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Hey, thanks for the suggestion!

Edit: On the other hand, I hate to call back these armies that are rampaging in his undefended hinterland. Maybe I'll let them keep rampaging until the swarms of Manikins overcome them...

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Zooko, you just don't have any idea how well defended they actually are.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

It's winter in the year 4 of the Ascension Wars. Man missed his turn. :-(

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Good. Maybe that means I was able to keep at least one of the four provinces I have left. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Turn 47 is up.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

I told you they were defended! Now it is my turn ti say, "I will rampage through your undefended provinces!" Marignon, I want to crush you. With you out of the game, I will be able to move on to bigger and better things.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Ugh. I lost my Arena-champion prophet paladin to a "retreated into enemy territory". Likewise, I lost a small army of white knights led by a paladin. You sent ghoul paratroopers to take the province that those guys were set to retreat to. If I'd had just a few more provincial defense, my priests might have been able to banish all of your ghouls and manikins. Maybe. We'll see. :-)

NEW TURN

Re: Manikin Madness
 

At least you got rid of that annoying Trident.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

New turn is available. Man was the Last one who was supposed to go Last time I looked. I don't know if the time elapsed and he missed his turn or if he went and didn't post to this forum about it.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Re: Manikin Madness
 

What are you talking about? Thanksgiving is in October!

Re: Manikin Madness
 

No, that's Halloween. I know, I get the two confused too.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Hey, there's a new turn up! I guess Man must have missed his turn or else taken and not posted about it again.

Re: Manikin Madness
 

Sorry for taking long, new turn! 52. Timer off
