***Special message***

As you probably all have seen, the good people of Caelum had to attack one of our neighbors.

This is not some baseless aggression. And the people of Caelum would never have agreed to such a drastic measures if there were not some heavy weighing arguments leading to this outcome.

This real provocateur is none else than Shinuyama herself.
As you're probably thinking, it was not because she attacked two countries without warning. The nation we all loved and cared about, the gentle giants of Jotunheim and the beautiful, intelligent and slightly wet inhabitants of Oceania.
Nor was it because goblins have slightly deformed heads and although small they are still to large to swallow whole.

No... it was because of the evidence presented below. Which after close inspection leaves no doubt that this is a just and righteous war.

We rest our case.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, that is totally awesome :-D

I've postponed the game as TC staled last turn, and I'd rather that we avoid having it happen again this turn.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

The last activity of Kennoseishin was on the 8th 8 days ago.
Don't think he's coming back. :(

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, thanks for checking that out.

I'll pause the game and look for a sub. Worst case, we set him to AI.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

There has been a coup. I have the honor to introduce myself as Tien Chi's New Emperor, and I accept your tributes as of now.

Hum... in case you are not yet a tributary province of the empire, you are welcome to send a copy of our diplomatic treaties and relations to our chancellerie for eehh.. double check. Not that we have lost them, I precise, the Imperial bureaucracy, in fact never makes mistakes.

So anyway let me know if you want any existing treaty continued by the new Imperial bureacracy!

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Hey, Numahr,

welcome to our noobie game.

I'm Caelum and until now there have been no animosities between us. But we also haven't had any Non Attack Pacts.

Greetz,

Hocus Pocus.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, so we are now back on track thanks to Numahr who has kindly stepped in to help us - yay!

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

The bureacratic reform we have engaged needs a bit more time than first estimated by the CCIRR (Consultative Commission for Imperial Reform and Reorganization).
(in other words I still need a bit of time to adapt to the strange nation I have inherited)

Therefore I would like to ask for a 24-hour delay.

Thanks in advance

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

I've extended the game by 24 hours - I got requests from both TC (which I may have missed - apologies if so) and Oceania.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

I think this might be the last turn for the current Shinuyama player, as he's about to head off for a month of travels.

Do people want to find a sub, or just set him to AI? From what I can see he's got one decent army left, so there could still be some mischief left, even if the long term prospects are rather bleak.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, since no one has objected, and the current player asked to be set to AI, I'll flick Shinuyama to AI from this turn onwards.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Tzarin should set his game on A.I. and if he's already on vacation maybe somebody who isn't playing could turn it on A.I..

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

I <3 my global enchantments, and I still think I'm doomed :(

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Hi,

I am a bit stretch with my games and would need +12 hours to play my turn.

Thanks - Numahr

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, done :-)

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Guys, apologies for the delay, I am struggling to get my turn in so I've extended the timer by 12 hours.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

24 hour delay for Numahr, who is quite likely in the process of flying across the globe even as we speak.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

(I am a muppet, I postponed the wrong turn - should all be good now :doh:)

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Added a slight delay while i try to find time to slink away when no-one is looking and finish my turn ....

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Guys, I need +24h delay to properly play my turn. And actually not only this turn, but kind of permanently, this is going too fast for me...
Thanks for understanding

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

In reply to the admin message: I support roll-back, but I'm fine with continuing if any player prefers to do so.
I haven't watched my turn yet (but I don't expect anything good from this stale anyway...)

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

I dunno.

Both options are unpleasant.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

OK, I have received a message that there is only 12 hours left. I will have to open the turn file to play my turn as I don't want to become a serial-staler in psite of me.

But pls, consider a +24 hours delay, the pace is really fast for me.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

It seems that we are all ready to concede before the inexorable might of Caelum!

I will just confirm that is the case, then send out a message of congrats to the mighty GFSnl and shut down the game.

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Well done GFSnl! I have only witnessed the end of this game, as a sub. I quickly realized that you would be my main enemy, after a few skirmishes with Oceania. But this was not enough...

Congratulations!

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Whoohoo...

First win in MP.

Well I can disclose now that I have about 150 clams plus arcane nexus which means about 200 extra pearl a turn on top of my regular gem income. And I'm producing 3 fully kitted Tartarians each turn.

I did get lucky by starting in the corner. Having a good NAP with Marignon on one side and squabbling neighbors on the other.
This way I could expand my empire by annexing the war torn neighbors in the east without any losses.
After turtling and clamming a bit a massive joined strike with Maringnon on Shinuyama sealed their fate.
By that time T'ien Ch'i and Oceania had weakend themselves with perpetual war.
I must say the way T'ien Ch'i made several comebacks was amazing. After this my Gem and Clam income was just to large although Oceania with his Arcane Nexus and forge of the Ancient remained a serious threat.
I tried to dispell AN twice with to few gems after which I decided to save up and just cast it myself.

Well, I really enjoyed playing with you all and I hope to see you in following games.

Greetz,

--- Hocus Pocus ---

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

Well, when looking at several games, unpredictable but useless come backs or stubborn but desperate defenses kind of become my trade mark... ;)

I just have to be more successful BEFORE to get to a desperate situation!

OK here being a sub it was more a kind of formal exercise anyway, like "let's do the best out of it".

See you over there GFSnl and other game-mates!

Re: n00bs of DOOOOOOOOOM!!!! - Five Nations Surviving
 

You certainly have proven remarkably hard to kill, I have to say!
