I haven't watched the battle yet (I just loaded my turn), but C'Tis has been destroyed and you have a whole lot of leftover troops from the battle so I'd say it went swimmingly for you!

So, anything fun happening in the world? Not much to say in my area. Just chilling with my homies.

The battle was a success, but my grand strategy didn't work out like I wanted it too. I must consider my future options.

Also, if you come across one of my Scouts, just realize that it is my way of showing that I care! I just want to know what is going on.

I am sorry guys. I have to resign from this game.
As you can see by the frequent stales I just can't find the time to run it anymore.
Caelum lies in shambles anyway, so the best thing for you guys would be me handing over to the AI.

Who wants to host?

Thanks for the game Yskonyn, and good luck with whatever else you are doing! :)

So, what is up in the world. I see that some one grab the well of misery. Not cool people.

Groundworm April 21st, 2012 02:16 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Monkeys are wretched, miserable creatures. We fling poo at each other for entertainment. Our lands are hot, lazy, humid swamps filled with screeching.

We see no reason that the rest of the world should be any less miserable, so we used the one thing we could to accomplish this: magic.

Spread the misery! :)

earcaraxe April 21st, 2012 03:00 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
but unfortunately for ur plan, the well of misery sucks away the suffering from the world. :P

Zywack April 21st, 2012 09:26 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Well of Suffering is all fun and games for everyone until you get piles of tartarians thrown at you because of it...

To be entirely fair, Shinuyama had a distinct lack of swamps: Some of our national magic doesn't work anywhere else. In order to make your lands less miserable, you could always give a few swamps to us! Win-win!

Groundworm April 21st, 2012 02:36 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Zywack- I would have loved a few less swamps in my starting area. I've been struggling for gold this entire game! Besides, you seem to be pretty effectively working your way to my swamps now...

And, earcaraxe, you have a good point. It's possible that my monkeys may now be more miserable than ever. Ah, well, live and learn!

Thanks for the update. Maybe things will get a bit interesting soon.

guys, i can't tell you how embarrassing it is how many commanders i have lost vs AI caelum. i gotta stop doing my turns when i am bombed...

legowarrior April 22nd, 2012 11:06 PM

The next turn should be cool.

It happens sometimes..

Quote:

Hi. On trying to host Giants_and_Dwarves just now, Dominions crashed. This is not a LlamaServer issue, but rather Dominions itself crashed with a "Nagot gick fel" error.

These errors are normally caused by a (generally inexplicable) problem with one of the players' 2h files. Therefore the LlamaServer moved all your 2h files away before hosting again. This is why you will receive a new turn file in which you've staled.

There are two options from here. Either you can treat the stale turn as a random event and carry on with the game, or you can roll back the turn and try to host again. If you try the latter your game admin will have to do the rollback via the admin options on the LlamaServer website, and you will all have to do your turns again. Note that in this case it is _really important_ that you actually do redo your turn, rather than just sending in the same one again (which people sometimes seem to do because they don't believe me). If you just send in the same file, hosting will simply fail again.

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
well, what r we gonna do? im ok with either solution

Zywack April 23rd, 2012 07:13 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Hmm... I suppose that either solution's fine for me too: The missing turn wouldn't destroy anything on my side personally. But if you guys prefer to rollback, I don't mind redoing my turn either.

I guess Legowarrior was right: Something "cool" did happen this turn! :)

legowarrior April 23rd, 2012 07:45 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
So we stalled. It took me a long to set up my orders so if there is kittle or no risk, It would be better torollback, but if there are issues and it happened to everyone we can move on.

Zywack April 23rd, 2012 07:48 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
According to the message that was sent in our e-mail box, if we rollback, we HAVE to redo our turns from scratch. Sending our already completed turns will just break the game again. So either way, we are stuck redoing our turns, no matter if we rollback or not.

parone April 23rd, 2012 07:48 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
if we roll back, though, we all have to redo our turn. can't just send in the existing 2h, as one of ours is corrupt.

legowarrior April 23rd, 2012 08:34 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Oh, well than bevermind. I little research wasted but nothing too bad I guess.

parone April 23rd, 2012 08:38 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
so no roll back? we can look at it as a kind of mid game intermission.

earcaraxe April 23rd, 2012 11:33 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
we treat it as a random event that had mostly the same effect on everybody. im convinced nobody profited from this (more than the others), so there will be no rollback.

legowarrior April 23rd, 2012 01:20 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Fine.

legowarrior April 23rd, 2012 03:49 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Actually, after going over the order I that were being given, I'd prefer a rollback. Over half my mages had just arrived at a province with a lab, so they couldn't research, and on top of that, I had just made my research goal, so all the research I did was wasted. If it is possible, I definitely in favor of a rollback.

parone April 23rd, 2012 04:09 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
hmm. already resent last turn. don't worry lego, it messed all of us up.

legowarrior April 23rd, 2012 05:32 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Alright, but darn! Well, Mine is sent in too. I hope everyone enjoys the next turn.

Zywack April 23rd, 2012 06:21 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
I'm expecting to fight the first of Bandar Log's Tartarian next turn... so I doubt that'll be too enjoyable!

parone April 23rd, 2012 06:32 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
i wasted several hundred research points and got another affliction on my pretender cus i didn't get a chance to put on his hydra armor.

ahh well. party on, wayne...

legowarrior April 24th, 2012 09:10 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
So, the party has started!

Zywack April 25th, 2012 07:46 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
So it seems that everyone's going to have some excitement... Fun for everyone!

On the other hand, I sadly have to report the death of the worst scout in the world, Wossan. He's been caught (and fled) for 8 turns in a row by a smallish patrol. However, due to an enemy raid last turn, his path of retreat was cut and he actually did die. It's pretty sad, since I was looking foward to see how many fails he could possibly get in a row before succeeding in entering the province... Now we'll never know. *snif*

legowarrior April 25th, 2012 03:29 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Yeah, well, that scout didn't have his passport up to date. Also, you didn't see what you saw, got it? That just happens to be a few tourist going to the beach. Nothing more. Okay?

parone April 25th, 2012 06:05 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
more than a few. it must be vacation land. my boys say there are near 1000...

legowarrior April 25th, 2012 06:07 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Well, it is a popular tourist spot. Great weather, nice beaches, and you can visit all kinds of neat places from that one spot. I hear that there is a group rate for people travelling south east, but they have to act soon.

Zywack April 26th, 2012 07:55 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Yeah, everyone wants to go to the beach during beach season... Even Bandar Log took the long trip all the way to Shinuyama's only beach. It's a good thing that most of our monsters prefer haunting people in the night rather than spending time relaxing in the sun, else we might find ourselves with a ton of disgruntled citizens!

Groundworm April 26th, 2012 04:59 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Yeah, sorry about that, Shinuyama. Monkeys love sitting out in the sun, and we don't have any beachfront property. They've tried sunning themselves in the plentiful swamps of Bandar Log, but it's just not the same for them. So we had to take yours. :)

legowarrior April 26th, 2012 05:13 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
So, this game has become really exciting.

legowarrior April 27th, 2012 05:50 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Sorry about that Ulm, my men demanded a vacation down south, you know, warm weather and all, and I just couldn't stop them. When they get an idea in their head, especially, Norm, they just start rushing around, trying to have a party.

Also, I see that little army of yours...

Zywack April 28th, 2012 09:37 PM

Whoa, I just noticed... Abyssia is AI? Since when?

legowarrior April 28th, 2012 09:42 PM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Yeah, that is lame. You should definitely inform the thread before going AI. Also, let's get this turn going people!

Groundworm April 29th, 2012 07:52 AM

Re: Giants and Dwarves [MA; CBM ; Noob friendly] [Full 12/12]
 
Sorry... been very busy at work the past few nights. Will try to get my turn in later today, but may I have a 12 hour extension in case I don't?

Thanks!
