Wow, that's the fastest I've seen a sub being taken. Very nice. I've added him to the stats and notification scripts.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

now if bogarus could play the friggin turn all would be well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Sorry, I've been unexpectedly parted from my dominions computer the last day or so. I should be able to take my turn about 8 hours from now... if it will host before then I'd appreciate a couple hour extension.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

I had a look around here on turn 6. Let's just say that some of the things I saw weren't pretty - seems like a few of the senior players are underestimating indies, or something. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Well I had a little indie problem too, 3 air mages spamming orb lightning are not what I expected and are also tipping the favor fo level 5 indies against my expanding army... but all that is past now and I guess that when I site search there I should find something sweetish

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

That was quick - sub filled before I even noticed the vacancy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.

I'd definitely like for people to get extensions - provided it doesn't become endemic. Also, when new subs come in it's generally good form to give them an extra day to familiarize, although this early in the game I suppose that may not be needed.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

yeah Í'm all in favor with extensions, mostly since while I think I usually will do my turn within 12 hours I do have evening and night shifts which can mess up my available time from time to time

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Yeah, stupid indie mage lit my lich on fire. :/ Oh the indignity!

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Then again.. liches are evil and deserve it, my troops (not otherwise specified) are all sweet and cuddly munkey's so they do not deserve it. Not to mention the munkey worship the REAL god not some phoney

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

HEY EVERYONE! AEZEAL'S HOME PROVINCE IS ON #126

CAST SEEKING ARROW! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Umm. Since Aeazeal is your ally, I think we can take this message with a grain of salt.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Uhh, Lingchih, because I am his ally, I know where his home province is.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

Hmm hey I see a capitol VERY close to mine maybe I should conquer that one...

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

'tis a special kind of fool who would not only spy on the living dead, but attempt to sow unrest in our ally. Foolish spy, when you are caught your head will be shipped to my capital where you can hold no secrets from the lord of the dead. Once I have heard from your own lips the name of your liege your headless corpse will march along thousands more as I fetch his head to rest beside yours as it is buried in a pit of sand to spend eternal unlife devoid of sensation contemplating the consequences of courting attention of the damned.

Re: Late Era Team Game - started!
 

There are SPIES???

it wasn't me

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Fellow none-hostile pretenders

What would one do if one would encounter hostile triple blessed (say astral, fire, water) mictlan jaguar warrior or whatever the critters are called.

Any general advice?

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Hostile? You attacked me!

You can already conclude that elephants are not the correct response http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

LOTS of archers.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

It is with great shock and dismay Frusen En discovered the evil ways of the Jomonese pretender. Surviving the treacherous assassination attempt he now calls every nation to strike against the Pretender of Jomon, most wicked of Lords.

Beware, lest the next ninja attack will be directed against your humble servants as well.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Heleon, God of Abysia, has been silenced by the will of Frysen. Frusen En, Voice of Frysen, accidentally met the false god on the battlefield and smote him with holy power. Heleon was struck dumbfounded and unable to speak.

All hail Frysen, teacher of philosophy, who giveth and taketh the ability to speak!

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Dr P it clearly was a mistake let's just shake hands and fight KO

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Praise Abysia, our god has just sworn a vow of silence to show the world his worthiness to ascend to godhood.

@Aezeal, jaguar are elite troops, so the best counter to them is to use your best infantry you can get to fight them.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Archers and get up the evocation tree as fast as possible

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

thanks for the advice I'll try that then..

but basicly.. being the neighbour of a 3-bless mictlan is just bad luck anyway right?

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

You have just too look stronger than the other neighbours of a triple bless mictlan

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Silence, you! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

hmmm well in this game there is no real other neighbour is there hadrian http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Sure there is. There's R'lyeh to my west, agartha to my east, and bogarus/atlantis to my ally's north. I'm *surrounded* by hatred and menace.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

those are far away I'm closest
anyway... want peace or not?

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Pythium hereby declares war on Agartha.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Haven't Agartha had enough misfortunes in their history. Oh, Frysen, Have mercy on their immortal souls. They should never have left their tunnels.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Actually, we already attacked them and routed their Pretender. This is just to make it official.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

As our pretender went silent, the people started to speak for him loud and clear as a firestorm.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Let them roar like the fire storm.
Let them roar in despair.
For they are without guidance.

Come to Frysen and the comfort of the stillness of ice and bones.
In the wispering bones guidance and comfort will be found.
Abandon your silent god and embrace the call of Frysen.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Hey pplz look KO roleplays a vague wannabe poet http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

The war is far from over. The Agarthians have learned from the past that it is better to boast after the victory than before the defeat.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

I promise to stay out of this war if the winner agrees to let me have a share of the loser's sun-ripened corpse.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Dr P I see you didnt'attack me any further after our li accident
can we arrange a NAP?

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Let it be known that the Devourer of Sins vehemently refute your suggestion.

Issurptut, Voice of Knife Bright Insight in the northern lands.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

I was considering what to do, but Patala just saved me from making the decision by attacking me. I'll sign NAPs with anyone else who wants them, 3 or 6 turns notice as people prefer. Offer is good for as long as I'm at war with Patala provided you don't attack me or my ally first.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Ah Dr P, let me be honest.

I actually didn't want to attack you, my ally did say I should. So I made the order and wanted to talk to my ally more... then I did save and quit... and my turn was processed anyway... I was not pleased but couldn't be helped.

but wait do I see next turn.. a 190 persons large ARMY behind the province I took.

So IMHO your mind was already made up, 190 person armies are NOT used to take indies.

PS you must have the most insane kind of luck to get flagellants when having your bless.. as if the jags are not enough to deal with.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Hi!

How much communication is normally done through in-game messages and PM respectively. I'm finding myself inclined to use in game messages, and a bit unsure if PM's are considered unethical and if so, under what circumstances.

I'm also finding myself roleplaying more in messages than in PM's.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

ingame is too slow for real communications IMHO only for flavor texts

I'm talking on this forum mainly to get things done

thinks like asking NAP's, agreeing on borders etc.. can't really be done in-game.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

FYI the Highlander game I'm moderating was started with the rule "no out of game communication", which has been seen as very novel, but at least one person left in frustration. I'd say 90% of the communications I get are through the forums and I've never known anybody to feel that was unethical.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

I guessed as much, but I thought it would be nice to know.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

basicly the ingame communication system is sufficient.. I'm not trying to annoy you or anything http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif just saying...

and don't loose your temper in the game.. wouldn't want that http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

You play a dangerous game prince of death, taking on the throne of bones. The very throne you so covet is fused from the essence of previous would be regicides, their souls bound to restlessness, their words whispers in my ears for all time. Come, boy, meet true royalty and know fear.

Queen of the Damned

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

now now I've had enough big talk in private from drP so let's not over do it here..

I'm not even sure he knows where he wants to go though... doesn't look like real rush attempt.. maybe he's going after Ermor like he first intended.. hear that ermor.. don't NAP him.. you're next on the list.. where above me actually

No need to thank me for the information

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Frysen does not covet thew throne of bone.
Frysen has a frozen coast full of bones.
There are more bones on the coast than the Arssartut can count. And they count.

We, the people of the frozen coast, on the other hand covet food, and fish have become exceedingly rare in the border provinces. Two out of three fishes are floating with their pale bellies swollen in the darkened sunlight.

The clouds of darkness billowing out from the wasted land has led our seal hunters to the conclusion that you, vile queen, is the scourge of the fish and enemy of the world. For the sake of the piscine lifeforms your unnatural existence must be unmade.

Frusen En, Voice of Frysen
