Re: Placeholder for new Megagame - Evermore
 

As usual, MA Ermor is blaming the victim. All I wanted to do was grow at my usual snail's pace of one province per turn, when Ermor showed up and menaced me with an enormous army of the undead. The army is giant, you all should really see it. Now it looks like I'm not even going to get a province this turn, or the turn after. So, I wouldn't quite describe Mictlan as unstoppable, as we are now stopped. Complete halt. Perhaps even a slight reverse.

The empire of Atlantis is looking for new trade partners. Any who can forge death and air and seek forgings or raw gems in any other paths (or gold) may apply. Other than those dirty bird men - I mean honestly, who craps where they sleep? We're particularly interested in rings of tamed lightning so we may clean up that area of Evermore more rapidly that none need cringe when a shadow passes overhead, wondering what is about to drop on them.

Hey, MA Ermor, Lanka? Which one of you wants free provinces?

Come right in and take some from LA Ulm! I know we have NAPs, but don't let them stop you! I'm going to go AI soon enough anyway.

In all seriousness... I've regretted taking this subbing job from day one. It was kinda funny waiting for some idiot to realize that I can't do jack sh*t against attacks, because the player who made this nation basically took EVERYTHING which would cripple LA Ulm (and quit over this from the looks of it, it wasn't hard to tell from the first glance on the nation - if I had botched my nation THIS BADLY I would've quit too, but I was subbing so I figured what the hell). No Sanguine Heritage thanks to bad choices on the Pretender (lol national mages can't cast it lol), 3 Drain for maximum research loss with already not too good mages (lol LA Ulm doesn't have mages that can research in drain lol)... I think the original player left at least a few hundred Pretender points unused...

What else can you ask for?

EDIT:

Omg, he didn't leave them unused. He just used them badly. Whee.

Your wish is our order.

Re: Placeholder for new Megagame - Evermore
 

meh, i gave you warning - which i did not have to do - and you indicated you thought it would be a fair fight - and i'm subbing as well. no need to be pissy about it, it's just a war http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Oh trading partner who I gave the 10 fire gems to 3 months ago, could you please send me the earth boots?

I indicated I thought we're both going to die (as opposed to winning the entire game) and I still think so. That has nothing to do with the fight being "fair" or not. I also indicated that you are being stupid for making it easier for others by weakening yourself. And I knew you are subbing, too bad that has nothing to do with anything. There's a difference between good and bad situations you can sub in - I just happen to always land on the bad ones. This, however, was the WORST of the crop by far. At least earlier I have had some chance to fix what had gone wrong, but this time... There's absolutely nothing I could've done. I tried to get researching outside my dominion, but other people's dominions didn't spread inside my borders fast enough to do that.

As for me getting "pissy" over you attacking me... You can think that if that makes you feel better. I just want to get out of this game, and I sure as hell don't want to help you in the process. I'm proving the point of my message to you here. If you want war, that's what you're going to have - just don't expect me to go quietly and/or without strengthening your to-be-neighbors (and weakening you) in the process.

As you yourself so aptly put it, it's just a war. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

(And if I'm pissy over something, it's this bullsh*t nation I've been stuck with. Rarely have I seen so many things going wrong in one nation, and all due to the original player's choices which were based on MA Ulm, which LA Ulm *gasp* ISN'T.)

Re: Placeholder for new Megagame - Evermore
 

yes, do as you wish - its just a war w/ subbed nations :-)

but asking people to invade you... after one small battle, which you could easily have avoided, and the vast majority of your forces intact having lost 1 territory,... you know, that's the pissy part http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
