Ya, I got no love for MA C'Tis transforming dominion but I sure do love every player getting their turn in :)

I'm on the lookout for more Nature gems. I have up to 10 Fire gems, 20 Earth Gems and 20 Death gems to offer at a 1-1 rate for Nature gems.

Edit: I tried sending my turn but the e-mail server of my internet provider is currently down... It should logically be working again before the turn is due, but I can't make any promise :(

Re-edit: They sure fixed it up fast this time :) All is good, turn's sent.

I didn't get the last turn in due to unexpected work in RL. Too bad, but nothing too serious I think.
Still, if you have tried contacting Caelum in-game during the last two turns I suggest you contact us again here on the forums.

Sorry to all the neutral spies that got caught in the crossfire! :)

So, I'm open to trading for more nature gems.

i believe that spy may have been mine? he should have been better at hiding!!!

I caught over 10 spies during the last two turns from multiple nations: I guess everyone wanted to bask in the glory of Shinuyama!

Abyssia wants to warn Vanheim against annexing one of our provinces.

It could be important for you but we spent time and resourses for taking it. That's why it deserves compensation.
Taking into accout money income and potential gem income of that province we offer a honest variant - to swap for any other province in our common border.
If you decide to disregard this offer and willing to forced seizure of our territories we recommend you to honor at least our NAP3.
So if you want to start a war the first attacks should land not turn20 but turn22.

Though we recommend you to think over a trade offer better.

Ok people I would like to kick in 48hrs for the coming days as I will have little time to tend to turns...

Zywack March 5th, 2012 01:24 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Awww. It's a bit disappointing since the few following turns promise to be pretty entertaining but nothing to be done there. Beside, we're heading into turn 20 and 48h at that point is what was planned anyway so I have no objections.

The rulers of air itself have declared the province to be holy ground, as such, why would we trade for something that was meant to ours in the first place.
We do not want a war but as explained earlier, a province right next to our capitol cant be under control of another nation, especially not one without any understanding of water and air, the most holy elements in the realm.

As such the annexation will take place this suns dawn.
Regarding a pact on non-agression, it is still valid from our point of view. We told you about the importance of the province a long time ago.
If the air whipsers of your armies marching towards Van territory, the urmother will lead all of van to defend their birthright.

Vanheim hereby officially declares war to Abyssia.

Feisty! But note one thing: Caelum are the true lords of Air and Ice. None other! ;)

If anything, that makes abyssia a common foe.

Whelp, as expected last turn was mighty interesting :) Mage scripting could stand to use a bit of tweaking, but I can't complain about the results!

ysko, does that mean you didn't get your turn in? that would really stink...

Yup, especially since that'll have been twice in a few days :(

love it earaxe. it is ridiculous how often i check email when we are waiting for one turn. lets hope Aby doesn't stall-just to torture us...

Yskonyn March 10th, 2012 09:26 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
48hrs as agreed from turn 20 onwards :)

That was a lot tougher than I thought it would be. You know what I'm talking about.

i don't know, lego. enlighten us. some of us don't have world wide spy networks...

Sorry, there are ears everywhere, and I wouldn't want people to know about my future plans.

well, if you have plans, that puts you ahead of me...

I'll tell you one of my plans though. To become the one true god!

my plan is for ashdod and I to continue ou fruitless war until someone kills us both...

Oh... well, I don't think I'm that close to you yet. Otherwise, don't let them eat you!

Sounds like plenty of fun for everyone's involved!

The host (me!) is under attack as well.
Who would like to volunteer to continue running the game in case I get wiped?

I can gladly take over admining in case of need.

My apologies on staling, the wild orgies in a sieged capitol full of Satyrs and Dryads can be a little.... well, lets leave it at that and try to clean up the mess.

Zywack March 19th, 2012 04:26 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
I got a gameplay question:

I had two armies from two different provinces with orders to attack an enemy province. Only one army attacked. The other didn't attack, didn't move, didn't get attacked, didn't do anything. I rechecked, and the turn I sent did have Move orders from both provinces as it was supposed to.

So what reason is there for one of my two army not to move?

earcaraxe March 19th, 2012 04:34 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
if an enemy army was moving from the target province to the province u were moving from this happens sometimes. they just stay in place instead.

Zywack March 19th, 2012 04:58 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Okay, let me see if I understand this straight... Let's say I have province A and B, the enemy has province C and the other provinces are neutral.

I give the order to A to attack C. I give the order to B to attack C. My opponent at C gives the order to attack B.

The game considers my army at B under attack so they don't move and "wait to be attacked". My army from A lands in province C, preventing his/her army to move. Is that correct?

If so... man. I had my strategy, scripping and armies all planned out so that I turn out to be in a better position, no matter if the enemy stayed in place, attacked A or attacked B. That obviously didn't include the "One army does nothing while the other attacks alone" possibility...

Well, that's a definitive setback but not a devastating one by any means... At least I'll have learned something new about the game, even if it still doesn't make too much sense to me :)

parone March 19th, 2012 07:17 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
zywack, did you get attacked? sounds like you didn't. this does not sound right to me...

earcaraxe March 19th, 2012 10:33 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
i was talking about a known bug: B attacks C and C attacks B: sometimes neither armies move, just stay pat.

Zywack March 20th, 2012 07:09 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
No, I didn't get attacked anywhere... Well, I did find a sneaking unit, but it was in a different province altogether. Not only that, but my opponent found one of my scout and attacked it with their entire army in province C, which indicates that they were on Patrol, and not attacking my provinces.

Unfortunately, I got to say the same for Machaka :)

parone March 24th, 2012 04:48 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
and i suppose i should say the same for ashdod. it took every man, resource, gold piece, gem, spell, and research point just to acheive a stand off.
