With all due regards, Caelum

Man i was in a mood to roleplay although i don't remember exactly what message i sent of course if it's message i sent that annoyed you. After all this is only a game and i wanted to move things a bit. Wings or no wings i'll enjoy learning how to counter players. I am not very experienced in MP but i definitely dont mind loosing if i can learn from it.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

Yo, mi amigo Kupiko, sorry if I have created the wrong impression - I'm just happy to be still alive three turns after the announcement of hostilities (in the form of your invasion) between our two nations!
In my role as leader of Caelum and member of the opposition to the Tien Chi hegemony it is my duty to trashtalk about you! Once we sign a peace treaty (or perhaps you surrender?) I will refer to you only in the most reverent of terms.
Until then, en garde!

Jorus

PS
And yes, I am jealous of your position as the most powerful in SSStreamlands.

PPS
I am a raw Noob and have much to learn.

On the other hand, "everyone dogpile on the leader" is working surprisingly poorly. Over the past 3 turns or so since the war started, net province change has been TC-1, Ctis+1, others 0. Time to bring more hundreds of units and some Death-5 summoners to bear, I guess. :D

On the other topic, I guess the easiest way to be consistent is "no more extensions unless requested", which saves me checking the game page, but I still have to check here and my email.

PS
A tip to Kupiko: I think you mean "losing" here. Loosing is when you set something free. When enemy armies arrive in your capital, you are losing.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

Yup you're right losing :)

btw those ritual cast arrows are nasty! Never hapenned to me before :( no idea what to do against it..Hope at least it's expensive.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

Dome up Kupiko. And use a ton of scouts with your armies. The scouts may get hit instead.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

You could also forge the air shields/armor that protect against arrows. I think they work against ritual arrows too.

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

Jeez, as if he needs any help - you have to give him the secrets to my arrows also! And I missed his blasted Masters of the Five Elements.
Good guess, Kupiko!

Believe me, he does now. :D

And speaking of arrows, please keep the arrows OUT of this particular engagement or I will be very unhappy at fighting a half-butted battle.

(Also those armies in the screenshot are costing me a third of my income in upkeep so I'd just as well lose a ton of them in an epic showdown.)

Re: Pernicious Peanut - Newbie only 4 player game (Running)

Haha nice..looking forward to it
