Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Alas for the ever-inevitable dogpile.

on the bright side, i at least have a fighting chance against sea of iced R'lyeh, crippled Pan and Ulm

*in character*
wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAg!!!!!!! no matter how many foes cometh, the giants shall prevail. we shall stack the bodies of our foes upon each other until we can make a mighty fortress with them. then we shall eat it!! the wAAAAAg is inexorable, and all will fall eventually, Ulm and Pan just a little sooner than most.

*out of character*
to Gath and Bogarus, and any other nations interested.
if your interested in some easy territories, Ulm's eastern border is pretty much barren, and is open for the taking by any power looking to expand easily.

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
My Email provider is down, can the turn be delayed by 24 hours please.

Tolkien May 19th, 2009 02:41 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I've already got NAP-3s with them, and they are currently embroiled in a war between themselves.

Also: yes.

Fantomen May 19th, 2009 07:58 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I found out I will be going to Kenya the 8th of June to 8th of July. I´ve posted a thread looking for a sub so i hope I get one before then.

Also we´re cancelling our NAP 3 with Gath, it will go out of effect on turn 31.

Tolkien May 19th, 2009 08:33 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Interesting turn of events.

And Lama, I wouldn't count the Grand Crusade out just yet. You underestimate the power of mah 1337 politiking skillz.
:p

Frozen Lama May 19th, 2009 09:08 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I certainly would never discount Ulm's skill in deceit.

I'm counting on people's intelligence to realize that I can ruin almost all my neighbors empires even if I do go down eventually in which case you will have the same problem, only with Gath this time, and you will have fallen far behind in your nation-building.

Tolkien May 19th, 2009 09:21 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
However, it is better to put down the gorilla in the room while you still have the opportunity to do so, then to allow him to grow to King Kong proportions. Then we would require a beauty to slay the beast, and being we are all playing Dominions 3, it doesn't seem likely.

:p

Frozen Lama May 19th, 2009 09:28 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
But in true giant tradition, Utgard will go down swinging, and take down many nations with it whilst the few nations that remain untouched by the devastation will grow and prosper and then fall upon their exhausted neighbors who so valiently allied to take down the giants, yet weakened themselves irreversably in the act. Thus, the ones who stay out of the war shall win.

Tolkien May 19th, 2009 09:33 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Unless not enough persons are willing to join the coalition, in which case Utgard wins over large tracts of land and thus are set to win the game completely and utterly.

No problem, I just made peace with Bogarus.
As a note, The NAP3 would be still valid in the 31st turn.
First combat orders could be issued in the 32nd.

P3D May 20th, 2009 05:17 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
May I ask for a rollback?

I updated my turn with the wrong file, so my armies kept attacking Bogarus instead of withdrawing.

Tolkien May 20th, 2009 07:07 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Well, I'm rather hesitant about doing that and all. If enough people say yes, then yes. Rolling back hurts pretty badly (or helps, depending on who you're talking to).

Fakeymcfake May 20th, 2009 07:24 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Sorry but I gotta be against a rollback. My last turn was extremely lucky in terms of random happenings.

Also, curse you people for getting all the mercenaries killed off when I could use them and have the spare cash to spend on them.

Lavaere May 20th, 2009 07:27 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
OK I haven't seen the turn yet, but as Bogarus I don't care that much.

So lets keep the ball rolling

Illuminated One May 21st, 2009 03:38 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I wouldn't mind a rollback.

Silence0 May 21st, 2009 10:48 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
This turn didn´t go well..but then again in my present state what turn does? Unless the parties involved are heavily damaged it´s best to just move forward..

Fantomen May 21st, 2009 03:00 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I would benefit from a rollback due to unlucky events, Bogus seiged my capital this turn:D

But I´m against it anyway, I don´t think mistakes motivates rollbacks.

Frozen Lama May 21st, 2009 06:12 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
If bogarus says its ok to keep going there is absolutely zero reason for a rollback.

Tolkien May 21st, 2009 09:30 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Yeah, I'm going to host the turn now.

Tolkien May 22nd, 2009 11:24 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I'm going to have to delay the turn hosting by 24 hours: I can't sent in the turn at the moment.

Festin May 24th, 2009 03:39 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Jomon will buy some gems for gold, preferably fire and astral, earth, nature and death are also needed. Please PM if interested.

Fakeymcfake May 24th, 2009 12:22 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Note to Self: Kill off Jomon's gold income.

Frozen Lama May 24th, 2009 01:57 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
The great giant of Utgard flails around, enemies surrounding him on all sides, but he keeps fighting. so many are dead around him, countless dryads, unending ranger chaff, lobo gaurds, starspawn, pikemen, there is no end, and they keep coming. now jaguar warriors join them, but still Utgard cannot die. The Skratti arm themselves and set out to destroy the world. Pangea is crippled, Ulm is falling fast, and Mictlan shall be next. the wAAAAAAg cannot die.

Tolkien May 24th, 2009 09:15 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I'm setting the hosting now to 48 hours. It's already turn 32, for Pete's sake. I at least am feeling the pinch.

Fakeymcfake May 24th, 2009 10:15 PM

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW...


...shucks

Illuminated One May 25th, 2009 08:06 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Mictlan!
On whose side are you?!?

Fakeymcfake May 25th, 2009 10:03 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I (Marignon) am in the market for astral pearls. I can pay in air, nature, or gold (lotsa gold). If you want I'm also open to other deals (I have minor amounts of all the other gems types but I'll only be able to trade a few of each) or if you want items made (construction 6, most paths cept death/nature) PM me and we can work something out.

Illuminated One May 27th, 2009 05:45 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I think Fantomen is gone, without finding a sub.
We should try again or set Atlantis to AI, it's still a to good position to be just left undefended imo.
Alternatively can someone dispel sea of ice? ;)

Fakeymcfake May 27th, 2009 06:02 PM

Heheh, locked the door and forgot the key eh?

Also, we should probably look for a replacement, but we'd have to either delay hosting or get Gath to stop gobbling up land so that if/when we find a replacement he doesn't have an army of giants beating down his doors.

Edit: I just looked at the stalling data and Atlantis hasn't missed a turn yet.

Tolkien May 27th, 2009 06:06 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I'll postpone the hosting for two days, and search for a replacement, like right now.

Also if he happens to come back, all the better.

P3D May 27th, 2009 07:00 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Gath can limit offensive actions against Atlantis if necessary.

Fakeymcfake May 29th, 2009 07:34 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Alright so are we still looking for a sub for Fant? Because while I do have an NAP with them I won't be sitting back and watching Gath grow fat on unguarded lands without taking my own portion.

Tolkien May 31st, 2009 01:05 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Well, haven't found a sub for Fanto.

Guess that means I'll set him to AI. I'll give him 48 more hours to submit his turn: if not, it's AI for him.

Illuminated One May 31st, 2009 01:30 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
She is on vacation I believe, so you might as well set Atlantis to AI now.

Fantomen June 2nd, 2009 09:04 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Sorry folks, I´ve been unable to participate. Too much stress regarding the trip and other stuff. I´ll set myself AI now since no sub as emerged from the depths of the fora.

Again, a hundred excuses for your inconvenience.

Fantomen.

Fakeymcfake June 2nd, 2009 04:04 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
No worries Fant, see you in another game.

Tolkien June 2nd, 2009 05:48 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
It's cool.

Alpine Joe June 8th, 2009 07:44 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Could I get a 12 hour delay on this turn hosting? I thought I sent my turn in, but I'm at work now and my email says that I haven't. This is a pretty important turn for me....

Although this is a last minute request so I guess i'll have to live with the consequences of no rollback.

Alpine Joe June 8th, 2009 09:26 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Never mind, had someone send the turn file from home :)

Festin June 10th, 2009 12:53 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Damn, a final part of my evil plan was foiled by Marignon PD, of all people.

Tolkien June 10th, 2009 04:31 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Hmm, Illwinter...

This calls for slightly-more-then-usual drastic action!

HA, they're a tough lot aren't they? In anycase I should thank you, that last battle cleared up a lot of my income for mages and what-have-you. Large armies are getting somewhat cumbersome early this game eh?

Frozen Lama June 10th, 2009 08:09 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Utgard is now playing spoiler.

Illuminated One June 14th, 2009 08:47 AM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
R'lyeh sells:

Skull Standard
Main Gauche of Parrying
Payments accepted in Items, Gems or Gold. Prices negotiable.

Send me a PM if interested.

Tolkien June 14th, 2009 09:55 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
The Looming Hell eh?

The blood nation's Stellar Focus. :p

Frozen Lama June 14th, 2009 11:53 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
What?
ummm i don't get gems from looming hell....?

but it can certainly be a lot of fun. lol.

Tolkien June 15th, 2009 04:45 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
By that I mean it's used to take up a global slot cheaply. I can be pretty vague sometimes. :x

Illuminated One June 15th, 2009 04:52 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
Would you be opposed to switching to a 72h schedule?

Fakeymcfake June 15th, 2009 05:27 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I would at the moment (be against that is). Still getting turns off in a couple hours tops, even while fighting two wars (granted one is against the AI).

Alpine Joe June 15th, 2009 05:41 PM

Re: Noob LA Game: Cataclysm - And Begin!
 
I would also be against changing the interval. Even with the micromanagement of all my blood hunters I still find turns take less than an hour to complete.
