I thought someone should at least try to dent one of the leaders :) even if pinching their global did mean incurring their wrath :(

IMO when you've got no chance of winning, pissing off your neighbors so you can die gloriously on the field of battle is much more fun than helping someone else win.

Yes, I was a threat, still am. And I expected some wars would come my way, someone would realize that I was one of the leading nations the whole game and organize something against me, never happened.

The thing I hate about this game is that everybody is just content to live peacefully in their little corner, the result is you will stay a mid power nation, while the few nations who fight will get bigger logicaly. Shiny is AI, TC doesn't HAVE to take all for himself, same applied for Neif but nah.

A lot of player waited too long to start some wars, most people like the odds on their side as in a gangbang, that might be one of the reasons.

For gods sake even the AI's will survive till the end of this game.
Nehekhara was turned AI at about turn 15 right? THEY ARE STILL ALIVE! WTF?

Yes, I know you were willing to give me items and SC usage against Ulm but I still like my fights 1vs1 as much as possible. Only time I agree to outnumber my opponent is when I consider myself much weaker or am backed against the wall.
However there was still the matter of the pact with Ulm which prevented me from attacking anyway.

So far the possible winners IMO are Revolution, Jazzepi or me and I'm not betting on myself since I'm fighting two players that have a tendency to fight till the very end while the others are much more lucky. And I for one think that my position is well deserved and I played this game were honorably and fairly. Even told Calahan I'd attack him even doe we had no agreements.

Hey, I subbed into this game, so I don't really have a lot of history in it. But after I subbed into the position, I'm really of the position that I can make very little difference in this game.

I don't really want to upset the players, but someone already said it that the stales/drops have made the credibility of the game suspect. I agree with that.

Jazzepi has been a gentlemen so I don't want to put any impute any failing on his part - but are there really any credible hopes of stopping him? At this point he can still roll up a few Yomi territories for essentially free - after which he borders another AI nation, at the very least.

Executor, ever the fierce competitor, is willing to fight him (I think) but shares no border. This really looks like a decided game....

Didn't you know it's Fomoria's top secret plan to keep TC in the lead, so TC gets to be the victim of a gankfest instead of Fomoria?

Anyway, I think it's way too early to be calling the game for anyone at this stage. Looks to me like there are 5 or six nations that are cursed with being capable of winning this game.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Victory conditions were 200 provs held for 3 turns, eh? I don't see anyone with more than 79 provs.

I'm still having fun with it, actually. And I have not yet reached my stated goal of being the last person actually playing.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Actually I think it's 50 victory points.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

The opening post says 200 territories 3 turns....
is that wrong?

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Looks like that was just a suggestion in the OP, it says 50VP here:

Not sure if you have to hold them for 3 turns or not, you can scroll up from the link to see the discussion.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

You know, I had 50 VP in my head, which is why I have been concentrating on VP provs, but I couldn't find where it said that. If so, then, we are even farther away from the victory condition.

I am 1/10 of the way there. A few others are closer.
