This isnt victory by victory points is it? Would be a little easier to end it quickly if it were.. but I dont think it is is it..

Executor October 26th, 2008 08:12 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
No it isn't by victory points, last man standing victory condition.

Considering that I had to set my empire on fire to win the double wars against Pangaea and Abysia, I'm mostly waiting to see who comes out on top in the Ry'leh/Hinnom/Neifleheim conflict.

it won't be me, I can assure you :)

Don't look at us, were too busy building sand castles and sun bathing for such trivial things as conflict. :cool:

You have the Forge of the Ancients and the Well of Misery. When is the Tartarian apocalypse?

PsiSoldier October 28th, 2008 05:04 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Eh I could have Tartarians in 2 turns if I wanted, but I have better things to do. How about an Un-killable (unless he is one hit killed) and nearly magic immune Seraph with +16 Awe? I believe we have one of those on one of our lovely beaches playing volleyball with the Wraith Lords :D

Executor October 28th, 2008 05:44 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Don't forget Niefs claws of Kokytos has no way of escape...
And than there are certain items too.

Executor October 29th, 2008 12:15 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Hey you forged my "certain item"!!!

I think it's about time we all attacked R'lyeh before he gets insanly powerful. ( and by all I mean me, and maybe Hinnom )
I decalre war to the unholy nation of R'lyeh!!!

I guess the steel ovens is in province 59.

P.S. I'll never play in another game with only one water nation unless that water nation is me, it's just unfair.

PsiSoldier October 29th, 2008 07:00 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Lol, what is the certain item? Ive forged too many to know what your talking about. Mage Bane, Woundflame, Amon Hotep, Armor of Virtue, Caractor the pocket lich, the Tome of High Power or the soulstone of Wolves or something I missed? And yeah its in 59. Come and try to take it haha.

I cant say that its a problem with there being only one water nation either, considering the fact that if it were not for magic I would completely suck on land while your army is far better than my standard army on land. Besides you have gone undistrubed for most of the game with over 20 land provinces where as there are less water provinces than that in the entire map.

K November 7th, 2008 03:07 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Game on!

Executor November 7th, 2008 03:48 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Yes, stale on in my case?(I know I sent in the turn ) but nevermind, GAME ON!

Executor November 9th, 2008 10:22 AM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Technically casting plague VOD and spells like that is breaking NAP.

Executor November 14th, 2008 02:36 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Errr... did anyone see that absurdly powerful Seraph in 28?

This is turning out to be a very interesting game.

PsiSoldier is going out of country for 2-3days, he'll probably make the turn but it would be best to delay the hosting a little just in case. I don't like anyone gaining the upper hand by staling.

archaeolept November 14th, 2008 03:00 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
oh definitely - turn off quickhost for a turn

sorry i haven't seen the seraph - most of my scouts seem to have died ;p

and now i'm dealing w/ massive unrest in my territories - thanks KO! ;)

Executor November 16th, 2008 02:06 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
The Seraph has fallen!!!
Who dares go against the might of Niefelheim next!?
I hope you learn from this mistake.

archaeolept November 16th, 2008 02:40 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
hinnom protests that these contests, clearly held for my entertainment, need to be delayed until my scouts are in proper position!

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 03:24 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Blah it wasnt much of a battle. his Sorceress just got lucky with a magic duel. 6 Astral Seraph vs. 3 2 astral Sorceresses and one 3 Astral Sorc. just luck. If I had had more time I'd have teleported a few more astral mage's in to the province to give my seraph time to get out but I guess you guys didnt delay hosting because when I got to my computer this morning I only had 30 minutes left which was just enough time for me to do a few small things and send in the turn. =(

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 03:25 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Dont worry though I have more. A Chayot this time. and I can always get more seraphs if I want. Ive always wondered if a chayot was hit with a dimension rod or magic duel or whatever if it would die or be banished or simply change form. Maybe we'll find out. Ive thought about testing it in SP but Ive not had time.

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 03:30 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Of course I'm probably going to wish away your dimension rod and your Scepter of Dark regency soon though.

archaeolept November 16th, 2008 03:30 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
ah, that sucks. It is K that can delay hosting or not... not any of us. You should send him a pm at least. both executor and I expressed our support for a delay.

also, that was pretty lucky on executor's part, but not too far out of the realm of possibility. scripting returning would have saved you, if he had some pearls. or just retreating, if you had a safe retreat province.

Executor November 16th, 2008 04:25 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Scripting phenix pyre would have saved him, and each of my sorceresses had a 29% to make it, so it was a fair chance. By the laws of probability I SHOULD have won anyway, but it was pure luck that the first one made it.
The chances are S2+1-6 against S4+1-6.

And don't worry, I've got something else planned for any other Seraphs.

By the way I just forged the dimension rod to keep you away from it.

Oh and only the initial asrtal skill counts, so neither forbidden light helped you nor my booster helped me.

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 04:43 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Hrrrm actually he did have Phenix Pyre scripted.. it just wasnt the first spell... guess it should have been.

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 04:45 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Hrrrmm never heard that about the booster's not affecting Magic duel.

As for you forging the dimension rod, what does that matter? I can take it away from you anytime I want. Just like I can take away the +3 Death Scepter of Dark regency.

archaeolept November 16th, 2008 04:49 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
right but that would cost you a wish... pretty pricey for the dimensional rod... i don't understand why it is worth it.

mind duel only uses your base astral level. no boosters or spells alter the level it is conducted under.

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 05:49 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
It might not be worth it. But I get 100 Pearls a turn so its no big deal. I'd only wish for it if I thought it was really a threat though. If wishing for it would save a few fully equipped SC's though... It would be worth it.

PsiSoldier November 16th, 2008 05:53 PM

In the future I may empower the SC's though outside of Magic Duel range so it only equals death for whoever tries it. Wish I had known about it not being affected by Boost items before though.

K November 16th, 2008 07:27 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Sorry....saw the request for a delay after it hosted (I think...you did mean last turn right?).

PsiSoldier November 17th, 2008 12:50 AM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Yeah it was for last turn. No big deal. Kinda sucked that I only got to put about 20 minutes worth of thought into the turn and had busy work to do like managing gems on commanders which took most of that time but I'll live.

K November 20th, 2008 02:23 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Err, does anyone know what is going on?

The game says my turn staled even though I sent it in AND ir looks like Hinnom has had two turns to take my stuff since I only have one battle report and they have four of my provinces.

archaeolept November 20th, 2008 02:36 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
yeah, i've attacked you for two turns - sent you a message, and a slave collar ;p

what did your reply emails from llamaserver say? you must have sent in a turn yesterday, as it was waiting for all your turn still - did it say turn 58 received?

Or, perhaps when you delayed the hosting to thursday, you thought it was still the old turn? It is possible not to receive a turn; then you can ask llamaserver to resend it.

PsiSoldier November 21st, 2008 10:28 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Hrrrm if you want to roll back that is fine with me. I dont think I'll be doing anything differently from what I have done just gift of reasoning my new SC and summoning more Tartarains etc.. and letting Executor take my province's until I'm ready to hit him back.

archaeolept November 21st, 2008 11:45 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
heh i've already done this turn ;p

but I've got no problem w/ a rollback :)

If I was in a pitched war with pride in the mix I'd be tempted to take you up on that, but at this point my goal is to go out swinging hard.

Executor November 22nd, 2008 01:24 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
I think we all know who the winner is but I keep playing just to try some new stuff out, and I see now that Niefelheim really doesn't suit me, I'd now take Kailasa or C'tis over Niefelheim in any game, as I already have.
So, Psi, bring it on I've still got good ideas to wreck your SC's.

PsiSoldier November 22nd, 2008 02:30 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Errrr. actually I think I staled that last turn because I was thinking we were going to do a rollback. Which is why if we are not going to do a now 3 turn rollback can we just do a one turn rollback.. Ive not looked at the new turn so whatever may have happened I do not know and cannot adjust to it.

Executor November 22nd, 2008 02:55 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
I didn't do much of a turn too anyway so it's fine with me.

archaeolept November 22nd, 2008 03:45 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
sure, just reimburse me my 1000 gold event :)

archaeolept November 22nd, 2008 04:33 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
not that i really mind... i'm mostly in this game for you two to fight it out - not technically trying to win by coming up the middle. Still, I did get a thousand bucks :D

PsiSoldier November 22nd, 2008 04:50 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Lol I'll toss ya a few gold coins if you want.

Executor November 22nd, 2008 05:59 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
R'lyeh money is no good with any giant races, but we'd be willing to take it upon us to check if the gold is worth anything anyway. Send us the 1000 gold.

archaeolept November 24th, 2008 12:48 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
hey guys, game is hosting soon - doesn't look like we're rolling back then - get your moves in :)

PsiSoldier November 24th, 2008 06:47 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Errrr I did not send in a turn.. I had sent a PM to K to see what was going on but he has not responded.. guess its a two turn rollback. or 3 if nothing happens this turn.

K November 24th, 2008 07:09 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Ok, rolled back one turn.

Do we want another roll back? I'm not sure if we can do two in a row.

Executor November 25th, 2008 07:49 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
I think you can roll back as much as you want, we rolled back 5-6 turns in one game.

K November 25th, 2008 08:01 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Ok, rolled to 59 per request.

archaeolept November 26th, 2008 08:22 PM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
I sure hope Executor got in his turn, or else this becomes pretty messed ;p

I'm happy to say that both K and me seem to have done the exact same turn as before :)

Executor November 27th, 2008 08:23 AM

Re: EA Hellscapes(Play!)
 
Actually I didn't get my turn in but aperantly Llamaserver used the turn file I sent before the roll back.
