I think it's time Aby starts sending horrors your way then!

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Abys? *cough*

Also, just wait till the doom horrors descend upon him. Just wait.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Omg we are so scared... i think we are going to withdraw immediately.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

The giants of Fomoria stand firmly behind their thrusted allies. Niefelheim is history already, but if the birdies want to come and have their wings cut, they are wellcome to do so.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Oh man, really? Cuz if you would that would be GREAT! My economy is in shambles and I would really appreciate it if you guys just backed off a province or two so I could start collecting taxes. Its hard to do it from behind walls, ya know?

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Haha looks like bbz made a scripting mistake. Attack instead of sneak for two scouts.

You freaked me out with the extra combat in the turn report!!

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Oh did I? I'm so sorry... I keep on doing that... I should check more carefully my turns:D.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Whoever it is trying to filter scouts through Ardun should just stop. It's getting embarrasing lol

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Not me I learnt my mistake last turn now my scouts are taking the longer way around:D

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Huh. I figured commanders would retreat back inside their castle if they weren't able to break a siege... not directly into enemy territory where they'd die....

WELL! Its been fun everybody. Good luck noob team, and to everybody else: May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your carpets!

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

And may the lice of a hundred llamas infest your hair!:D

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Thx for joining and playing 'til the end. :)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Yea thx for the game:)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

No problem.

I'll tell you what, getting whooped up on and being stuck inside my own fortress for the last howevermany turns was one of the most fun experiences I've had playing dominions. I kinda wish my prophet had actually trampled your commanders like I was hoping, but being under siege made me play the game in a way I never had before. Totally worth it.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I am appalled that the red menace has attacked the peace-loving people of Ulm, when we have no made no aggressive moves against the barbarous red hordes of Abysia.

So be it. Ulm acknowledges a state of war against the Red Menace.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I'm just trying to reach Caelum who is sending his crap troops into my lands leaving guano everywhere.

Btw i need more room !

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

It would have be easier to go through province (50), then making a giant swing through my heartland, since there was no way you'd reach Caelum without going through at least three of my provinces, containing no less than 2 of my (3 planned) fortresses, including my capital. No matter your intentions, the red menace will be contained. I was planning to continuing my splendid isolation, but I suppose it is at an end. Your rampage ends here, commi-, err, Abysian.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Yeah anyway i was lying i want your lands too :)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Then the buck stops here. Mr. Bullock, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL! REAGAN SMASH!

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Caelum's heroic warriors were undefeated in all 5 of their attacks on your provinces. And that was less than 5% of my army. (and yes, those were some of my weaker units, and none of my glorious mages)

Perhaps you should reconsider your aggressive position against my ally before you are in over your head.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I love the fact that there are two different wars going on. While I am having a cold war with Hinnom, Ulm and Caelium are going for the more straightforward approach with Abyssia.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

lol nice way of putting it:D

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Thx to the infinite kindness of Abysia, we are willing to leave Ulm lands if Caelum stops his attacks.
Now concerning Nief no need to remind you that he draws the first blood and deserve his fate.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

*Enter Vampire Count*

VC: Milady, the crypto-fascistic communists of Abysia have been routed, and their offensive destroyed as they sought to continue their illegal, and scandalous advance into the motherland. As you predicted, Reagan Smashed.
Trish: Eeeeexcellent. Guards! Fetch the messenger! And the cow!

*Enter Messenger, with Cow*

M: Milady?
C: Moooo?
Trish (to Messenger): Send the Abysians this message.

Turn 24, a month that will live in infamy. The peaceloving thralls and undead of Ulm was suddenly and deliberately attacked by the bloodthirsty human and undead forces of the Despotate of Abysia. This attack was unprovoked: no action even remotely aggressive was undertaken on our part against the Abysians. It is clear, from the disposition of Abysian forces upon our demilitarized border in the turns leading up to it, that this was a premeditated act of aggression. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in Niefelheim, we shall fight on the hills and mountains, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength of the arcane, we shall defend our homeland, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the plains, we shall fight on the wastelands, we shall fight in the forests and in the farmlands, we shall fight in fortresses; we shall never surrender. Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the Ulmish people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.
M: Smashingly good, madam. Delivering it right away.

*Messenger Leaves*

Trish (to Cow and Guards): Deliver this cow to the Abysian messenger outside the gate. You know how.
C: Moooooo?!?!?! Moo!!!!!

*Guards take away Cow*

Trish: Yes, yeees. Everything is going according to plan. Now they will witness the power of this fully-armed and operational battle stat-, err nation! *cue crazed laughter* *cue coughing fit*




In less ridiculous mode, I reject the Abysian offer of peace, after they launched an unprovoked offensive upon our lands. Any such peace with such a vicious and violent neighbor is out of the question, as it will inevitably be violated by these vicarious vermin. Ours is a vendetta, that shall see the vacillating varmits vapulated vegetely. They tried to vulnerate the vespiary of Ulm, and shall be dealt with accordingly.

In serious mode, until Abysia shows that it will abide by such a peace (of which it has shown no signs of doing), there will be no peace. They must vacate the lands they have wantonly occupied from the peaceful peasants of Ulm, and additionally raise the siege of Niefelheim, as well as provide a small connection between Niefelheim and Ulmish lands. Unless such terms are met, then Abysia has not shown good faith in adhering and forging a lasting peace between our nations, and there can only be grimdark war (in the 41st millennium, no less).

That being said, Operation Reagan Smash was quite a failure. My communions didn't all go off, and they didn't fire any Solar Rays or Dust to Dusts (note to self, remember to place mages in range of the spells they're scripted to cast). As a result, the losses we took were unacceptably high for what should've been a complete rout (it should've been an "ITS A TARP [Trap, even!])". But that scripting error almost turned it into this, though not quite. At least we didn't lose a whole lot of metal bawkses.



So many nerdy references, so little room. _(<_<)>

No so much straightforward, since I was the one attacked here (I'm starting to see a pattern with my MP games...always fighting defensive wars, hurr).

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

The Caelum empire will temporarily halt operations against Abysia, to allow time for your peoples to consider the errors of their warmongering ways.

We stand with our Ulm allies demands for a cease fire. And we are hopeful that some form of truce can be made to accommodate a more peaceful coexistence for all the peoples of the eastern lands.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I'm glad that at least one of you does some reasonable request for a peace agreement

If i have a confirmation of Ulm i will withdraw my troops from his 2 lands.
However Nief's lands are mine, and that's not warmongering cause he attacked me !

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Nieflhiem made a mistake. Obviously.

However, so did you with your planned eastern (warmongering) assault of the great nation of Ulm.

Everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

You have been granted an opportunity to erase your mistake, and Nief's mistake, for the benefit of the whole world. The decision is yours to make. Decide wisely.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

i Should be the one asking for compensation for the attacks of Nief & Caelum !!

However my mate convince me to leave land 33 to find a peace agreement. This land as 10k pop and produce gem, i think it's a fair deal.
I won't let land 30 go cause it produces hobbits and they are a part of my evil plan.:evil:

It's your call.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Offer rejected. *lobs another farm animal at the messenger*

The independence of Niefel, either with outlying lands or merely a city-state, is nearly non-negotiable. If you refuse this key stipulation, hostilities shall be resumed then.

In the interests of peace, however, I will leave this option on the table for the red menace. In addition to the border you proposed, there will be a 150 blood slave indemnity (which may also be paid in gems, at a rate of 2 slaves to 1.4 gems), to be paid within a six month period. That offer will remain on the table for your leisure, though the border will be subject to change past next turn (depending on the extent of conquest). This is my final, non-negotiable offer. If you agree to it, I will be willing to sign an NAP-2 with you (and I never break my word). If not: alors, c'est la guerre.

I will not make aggressive action for this turn. After that, the ceasefire will expire.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

If you wish to prove your goodwill, then your decision should be fairly simple.

For if we are to live by your logic (quoted above) then Ulm should without doubt claim your entire country as his because YOU attacked him, and he is therefore entitled to every land you own, including your capitol. Your aggressive disposition works both ways see.

YOU planned in advance, and attacked Ulm, therefore all your base are belong to Ulm now. Unless of course you comply with his demands.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Ah, Nosantee not honoring his NAPs....will be remembered.


Oh well, nothing to do but finish him off...

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Hah! The thought that -I- am the one that broke the NAP is humerous! perhaps you didn't understand my message. How many of you would consider your DOM10 neighbor blood sacrificing until you have barely 10 candles on a map non aggressive?

My point exactly, you were trying to kill me from turn 10 with an insurmountable ammount of blood sacrifice. Know that to most, that kind of thing is 100% aggressive.

By all accounts, you broke that NAP 15 turns ago the moment you started blood saccing into my territory

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Hate to be the guy that requests it but now that we're coming coming up on turn 30 is there any chance we up the turn timer to 36h?

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

sounds like a reasonable request :)

Unless some1 complain i ll switch to 36

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

My turns only take me about 36 seconds, but I don't mind.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

keep it up:)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

It was a good run, fellas. I had a blast. On a side note...

I hope the fire of Abysia is extinguished forever! And may the mutations of Fomoria overcome their bloodline!

Noobs forever!

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Sad times, magic is disappearing from our plane of existence and giants are going extinct. (but quite natural gamewise:))

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Odd, in game it said Nief was gone but it's still showing his turn on Llama. Does he have to set himself to AI before it removes him?

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I think, from my experience with only one other game, it takes a turn for Llamaserver to recognize my uh... "departure" from your plane.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

yea I think so too. so just check the turn and submit the empty turn where its says that you have no more lands and no one believes in your pretender god anymore:)

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Need an extension.

Hurt my hand bad last night and wasn't able to do my turns last night.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I guess I'm the only host that checks the forum near the end of every hosting cycle...

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Sry Excist. Just saw your request.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

I don't have a clue why my SC didn't manage to kill your SC there Excist. He was supposed to be doing 20 damage a hit. o.O

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

On the brightside, your son of kokabel was smart enough to cast returning on the first turn when I sent my dedicated mage team of 'son of kokabel assassins' after him.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Hosting in about three hours. Maybe time for an extension for the two?

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

This game is unbearably slow for me as it is. Seems whatever the timer is set to, it always seems to take (timer - ~2hous) long to complete a turn. And it's been this way since turn 3. :(

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
 

Haha yes that tends to happen often. I'm not sure what's keeping Ulm (Probably just a busy life!) But like I know Hinnom said he'd hurt his hand pretty bad. And myself playing Arco, the amount of micro... Oh God I couldn't even imagine trying to get a turn done one handed!
