Re: How\'s the timer?
 

Ouch, i dont feel quite so bad anymore.

Server update
 

The long awaited patch 3.10, which fixes and adds tons of things (everything from 28th april to now), has been released yesterday. I'll update ASAP. You should continue to play your current turn with the 3.08 client and switch to 3.10 after I'm done. So download the patch files and stay tuned. Only update your client in case it tells you that your game version is too old when you connect to the game!

hmmm
 

Is Marignon still playing? It seems he has already stalled two turns...

Re: hmmm
 

I was wonderin that myself. Its mid terms for me so turns might be slow from me too. I don't think i will need an extension.

Re: hmmm
 

I'll try to find a sub for Marignon.

Re: hmmm
 

Marginion might as well just be set to AI, Its barely there.

Re: hmmm
 

Done that. Have fun deciding the game between you three.

At last
 

At last I defeated Marignon. What a chore. Now I can concentrate on T'ien Chi. The next chore...

Re: At last
 

Tien Chi is crumbling like a errr poorly constructed house made of ummm sand and ummm bugs. Yeah thats it. Sand and bugs.

I mean really who would build a house out of that anyway?

ouch
 

ouchies!

Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

It seems like Hotmail is now blocking my turn notification mails across every site they have (.it aswell as .com etc.). If you can, please whitelist my sending address so that these aren't filtered out as spam, or get a better email provider which supports that (and doesn't treat it as spam).

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Hotmail sucks.

Anyway,
1) congratulations to Teinchi who fought overwealming odds and watched his empire collapse But had the strength of resolve to not go AI. kudos
2) With Teinchi being all but eliminated the two superpowers must decide who the ONE true god is. Hostilites will begin in two rounds from now.
3) I believe that Ryleh will want a week long hosting pause do to a vacation. I agree to the pause, if it is requested.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

No problem. I haven't heard anything like that yet, to please keep me updated in case he risks running out of time. I can alternatively just turn off the timer.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

I'd like to say that Tien Chi is not dead yet (but soon). And he is fighting to the end like Marignon did. That's the spirit.

As Cor2 said I will be on vacation from Tuesday to Saturday so I would like to request to turn off the timer from Tuesday to Friday.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Gack! the global which shall not be named has been cast. I am screwed.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Be at ease. I don't know what I'm doing. Actually it's the first time ever I cast that one (I never came so far to research a magic path up to level 9 in any of my games).

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

If you guys start a new game, can I join? I've played in a MP game before, but I got my butt kicked, so I need to play with other newbs, lol.

=$= Big J Money =$=

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Are these two independent statements? Because all globals can be dispelled. And "that global" is not as uncontrollable with only two players left in the game.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

You want to create a new Newbies game? Sure, I can always do that, when it's a vanilla game I won't have trouble to set it up. I'll create a new thread.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Well, T'ien Ch'i is gone.
It was a very enjoyable game: 127 turns in firing line, always at war.
Thanks to everyone for the fun play and thanks especially to lch for the hosting.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Thanks Siever, well fought!

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Fighting to the last man! Thanks Siever!

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Yes, please. Thanks.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service
 

Me me I want to join. Never palyed a multiplayer yet. Any age you like.

Re: Microsoft\'s incompetent email service

Back
 

o.k. I'm back from my holidays.

Re: Back
 

oops i still have not taken my turn, i will do that after work tonight!

Re: Back
 

Ouch! Damn Tartarian monsters. Slaughering my troops trying to avoid them.
And poor R'lyeh hyper death mage... exhausted itself too much. Sigh. There goes the items I forged with so much love and so many expectations. Doesn't Undead Mastery enslave ALL undead units on the battlefield. I cite the manual: "That means AAAALL of them". My nice little cunning plan backfired a bit...
O.k. let's think of something other...

Re: Back
 

Only if they fail their MR check. And the battlefield wide spells are always "easily resistable" when it comes to that.

Re: Back
 

Holy crap! how many of those master enslavers do you have?! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/Injured.gif

Re: Back
 

For each one killed I create two new ones. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif
And for every wolf killed I create 4 new master enslavers. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/stupid.gif


FFS! These lands are sprawling with Tartarian monsters! Aaaaargh! And that guy complains about the casual master enslaver!

Re: Back
 

LOL

Another question
 

I have another question: Those ethereal PD of yours... are they part of the Fata Morgana global?

Re: Another question
 

Yep. You should dispel that with haste, yeah?

Re: Another question
 

Hmmmmm... we'll see about that Fata Morgana...
at least a victory in the kingdom of Dhana and in the north where my paratroopers can maraude a bit until they get caught by one of the 2000 Tatarian monsters...

Re: Another question
 

Yeah, most players only use one or two tartarins. I use Legions! mah mah mah!

Re: Another question
 

Just you wait!

Re: Another question
 

Hmmm all is quiet on the southern front. how odd.

Re: Another question
 

Don't you know it's Christmas? My men are celebrating the birthday of their god. They're visiting their familys, have a feast on the mind of the poor people unlucky enough to live in my realm, sacrifice childern by pushing them into the Void Gate and Hastur, the goat with the 1000 childern and Yog-Shiggurath walk the streets and sing songs of the Old Ones and the black planet. Happy Nfga'hafta'ghn!

Re: Another question
 

Well at least they are haveing a good time.

Hey, you haven't met my new Tartarians yet have you?

Re: Another question
 

Sigh, there went my newest anti-tartarian-experiment kabloom.

New Tartarians? You really need more Tartarians? I don't know... Well I'm looking forward to make aquintance with them.

Re: Another question
 

I hope you enjoy your new artifact. I wasn't really using it anyway :weep: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rant.gif

Re: Another question
 

I have a new artifact? The Infernal sword? Was useless against your Tartarian. The poor assassin died the death 10000 of my men died before. At least his death was not as quick.

Live Graphs
 

We now have some live graphs for this MP game:
http://valhalla.techno-mage.com/scor...p?game=Newbies

More info in the Scenarios, Maps and Mods forum.

Re: Live Graphs
 

Wow cool. Thanks Ich. But still... I think they are just propaganda from Man. I mean, look at them! It's an insult for the nation of R'lyeh! Another little scheme of Man to undermine the morale of the starspawns! If I lose this game it's because of you Ich! (Wooohooo! I've found a scapegoat!)

Re: Live Graphs
 

neat graph, thanks!

Re: Live Graphs
 

Hah, okay, those graphs are scaled in a really strange way. They look like Man would be crushing R'lyeh in everything, as if R'lyeh is short from becoming extinguished. Only after looking at the raw numbers one can see that the difference is not as great as the graphs seem to indicate, they're lying. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Live Graphs
 

I have a plan!

Re: Live Graphs
 

Hey! That's cheating! It's forbidden to have plans! I dare you! Don't even think about it!
