as far as i know, your fighting a winning war along with caelum vs ctis and formoria was about to begin aggressions with you this turn.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Ulm has staled six turns in a row. I don't know, since Keithz notified they staled at the beginning of their war, if Ulm played any turn of that conflict at all, but at the current state of things this seems a little unfair.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Unfortunately its almost too late now. Don't know if they have much left to do anything with going by score graphs.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

the players will just have to bring balance back to the game.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Im tired of moving my army one province at a time and truthfully I have been out of the game now for at least 10 turns. Can someone volunteer to take mod duties pls?

I will be turning AI in 2 turns.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I'll be happy to take over if you'd like.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Group,

I'm taking over admin duties on this one. If anyone needs delays etc. PM me or post here.

Cheers!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Thanks.

And I'd like to have 24h turn prolongation...

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Game delayed 24 hours.
Cheers!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I delayed hosting 24 hours for a change of email.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Comrades, we've got another problem with stalling:

Acro and Ermor stalled last turn. I'm really concerned about the Acro because I'm not observing the 2h file from it for this turn yet.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Thanks for heads-up. I'll delay 24 hours. (and you are right for concern. THis is on top of an already 24 hour delay).

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

To make things clear, Acro is currently engaged in the war with Hinnom, which already destroyed playerless Ulm.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I agree about Arco. He's too large to let go belly-up. We won't start until we hear from him or get a sub in place.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

He was on the forums 2 days ago, so I don't know what the issue is with him.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I PM'ed him. May must be Stale month! At least we are in June now!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I have not heard back from Arco. If I have not heard back by tomorrow I was going to start looking for a sub. Monday to Thursday will be extremely busy for me. I may ask for help in finding a sub/administering the game through that period. If anyone wants to post to start looking for a sub, please feel free. We won't restart until we have a sub for Arco.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I staled intentionally (was busy that night and had already stopped recruiting mages)

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Good news. Kungfoo is going to sub for Arco.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

An interesting fact: the place where Hinnom lost lots of its troops is the same where Lanka lost lost of its troops.

Once again - we held the line. Even with some suicidal sacrifices.

Surely, attacking Great Communist Republic of Tien Chi - which, by the way only did its international duty to protect poor people of Ulm from being eaten alive - is somewhat more entertaining than attacking a leaderless nation.

Glory to the Great Immortal Chairman! Glory to the Red October!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

lol...good one Comrade.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

An interesting turn indeed.
So, Acro destroyed more than half of Lanka's forces - using lots of mages, but was massively invaded by Helheim.
Also, Ermor stopped researching for some reason - probably he hit the level 9 in some school.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

The battle for Arcoscephale was amazing to watch. :D

It was rather rude of Helheim to spring a dozen stealthy ponymen on my farmlands at the same time that Lanka was assaulting my capital; one might almost think they were acting in concert.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

You're too generous by far. As your troops were patrolling, we never even made it within sight of the city gates. :hurt:

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

It may have been rude, but it certainly was not a concerted plan.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Any notice from Ermor? Has many stales in a row, maybe the nation could use a sub.
And we should set Ulm AI, there is no much left of it.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

A sub for Ermor would be good.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I'll post. We can pause game until we find a sub.
I'll also see if I can get someone to turn Ulm AI.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

So, I'm an idiot and didn't get my last turn in on time, but I'm still here and don't expect to be staling again. :D

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Also, I'd like to have 24h extension.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

k. 24 hours added on.
Also heads-up to the group. I am going on vacation from 6/22 to 7/1. I'm going to try to get turns in on time, but I may stale and/or delay turns.

Is anyone interested in co-hosting to help me out during this time. I won't really have time to check the boards?

Thanks!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I can help with the hosting if needed.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Thanks Austen. I'll send PM you the info!

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Everyone: We have a sub for Ermor. Jimbojones1971 is going to take over. I'll going to get him the turn shortly.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I delayed hosting 24 hours. Just waiting to get Jimbo's email so I can email him his turn.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Sorry for the delay guys, seems I never sent my email address to Matty - just thought I had. Done now! :-)

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

No worries! I'll get you the turn file out in just a bit. I'll delay a bit more. Take as much time as you need.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Anyone else not have their new turn? Seems like it should have been sent out a few hours ago.. have requested resends and not gotten them either..

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

It took awhile. I asked for a couple of resends.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

I haven't been lucky with the resends (didn't get mine either), but I'll give llamaserver some time to breath and wait a little more.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

After much prodding, it finally resent mine just now.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

What the hell? I'm getting spy reports on my own armies and provinces. For a second I thought that my troops turned against me.

Dire times indeed.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Fomoria needs nature gems. Our weeping stones can provide water, air, some astral in exchange. Also some forged items on that same areas. If you're interested, let me know,

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Is this during a seige? If so, the text is wrong - your spy is actually reporting on the guys in the fort.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Nope. It shown me all of mine armies - even PD - in the way of spy reports. Bug disappeared, but it was funny.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

OK, that is excellent :-)

I guess with a user name like Russian_Comrade, maybe the NKVD figured you be interested to know what your minions were up to?

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Can I get a 12 H extension? This turns take me longer than my other games and I probably won't get home early tomorrow.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Yep. I added 12 hours.

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Much appreciated !

Re: NEWBIE GAME - EA - Stumble onwards to Victory! [STARTED 12/12 REMAIN]
 

Everyone: I postponed 24 hours. Traveling for work tomorrow. Cheers!
