Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I really would like a delay. I'll be away about 20.00GMT Friday to Sunday 20.00GMT, so I should be able to do the next two but a 24h extension would be good after - I don't think a sub should be required for one turn.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Interesting, my capital seems to be loosing population at LA R'lyehs speed...

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

As noted, this current turn is in from me, but I can't get another in until late Sunday GMT. If you really want the game to carry on forwards without delay I'll try to find a sub, otherwise please hold briefly.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

WTF happened? I submitted my turn, but got a stale one...

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Trade agency "Smiling Shadow" with headquarters in great capital of Helheim offers good prices for astral pearls. For 20 pieces you can expect fantastic reward in form of either 25 fire rubys or 25 water sapphires. For adepts of dark arts we offer 20 black diamonds(*). The scale of transaction is negotiable.

*The agency does not take any responsibility for wrong use of our magical resourses.

We'd like to ship over 20 astral for 25 water.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Abysia needs 10 earth gems, we can pay with anything but air gems in return.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

If someone wants to cast something nasty, Atlantis is selling 100W gems.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I'll be postponing hosting for the US holiday weekend. Quickhost is still on, so if everyone gets their turn in it'll host, but enjoy your weekend if you have plans.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

The great people of T'ien Chi are looking for two or three dwarven hammers. We can pay in items, gems, or gold. Give us a message if you have any for sale.

Jazzepi

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Abysia buys earth gems for the fire ones at 1:1,5 rate. We could also offer other gems. Contact our representative.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Fomoria selling large amounts of water gems, will trade for any other type of gems for 1:1,3 ratio.
Will also buy death or astral gems for gold, 30gp for 1 gem.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Wow, that's a lot of gold per 1 gem. You must have something up your sleeve.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Atlantis is selling Rune Smashers to those that can value it's importance. PM me with offers.

The Story of Agartha

Chapter VII - "The Devouring Earth"

Ningublaga and Utuhegal are brothers. Twin brothers. In fact they are the only twins brothers ever to have been seen amongst the race of Oracles. It is so rare for our Earth to bless two so highly and so equally, that much has been predicted of them since they came into being.

The Prophecy of Telosn'rahht adds further weight to these expectations, for it tells of '....a mirrored Oracle, who casts a solid reflection, and shall have the power to command our Earth to swallow the unworthy". Long have "The Readers of Telos" been connecting this passage to the fate of Ningublaga and Utuhegal.


During the final days of the early growth season, a large party of Druids met the twin brothers of Agartha for the first time. Though little did they suspect how hungry our Earth was, or indeed how well it would feed that day. For our Earth readily obeyed the commands of the twins, and chasmed itself wide to consume the magical energies of these unworthy mages.

The Ones are expecting our Earth to feel hungry again very soon.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Anybody cares Vanheim and Niefelheim stale for some time? As long as I understand Vanheim is consumed by Fomoria, so it could just be set to AI, but Niefelheim is in a pretty good shape, shouldn't it be subbed?
P.S. Abysia is still looking for the earth gems FNSWD gems, gold or some items could be payed in return.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

So, this makes what, like 20% of the people who started this game have just abandoned it at this point? I think I am cursed at admining a game. :(

Well, the silver lining I guess is several strong positions have shaken out of the shaky start and I at least am having fun in my little corner of the world.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Vanheim should be set to AI, they went AWOL the turn I attacked, no point in looking for a sub now most of their remaining troops are militia but it's not my decision.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Yeah, there is surprisingly high amount of people disappearing or going AI without any good reason. And some nations are really benefitting from that [I don't want to point fingers, but we all know them really well].

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Well since Niefel is my brothers nation, i will speak for him here. I'm afraid he is a little burned out right now on dominions, but i didn't realize he has been staling. we should either set him AI or find a sub. If anyone thinks we can actually find a sub, i can play 1-2 turns for him until then, but i don't want to take over, even though C'tis isn't going to last much longer :p

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

There are still quite enough of us left for an interesting game, Baalz.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I don't have the energy to scare up a sub, but if somebody else can I'll switch them in.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

of course it looks like TC is gobbling up a lot of territory from Niefel, so its losing ground fast. I can set him AI so that everyone gets a chance for some of his empire? just tell me what to do.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

yeah, just set him to AI

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Really sorry about this guys, basically what Frozen said, plus my internet going out was the last straw. Obviously its fixed, but I'm cutting back anyway. I'll set AI. Once again, sorry to cause trouble.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Protip : Put PD in your provinces :O

Jazzepi

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I'm happy to look for a sub for Nief if it helps. The empire looked in good shape until Jazzepi's aggressive multiple mouse slips :)

If I start the search now then we'll have a good 12 hours before hosting for a sub to come forward, and if Frozen Lama can do a turn or two then we'll have a day or two to find one.

I personally really hate seeing nations go AI due to the huge unbalancing it causes, and here it seems silly to me to turn a powerful nation like Nief AI just like that, since their position is probably fine. Plus some of us are having to fight tooth and nail for every single province, so wouldn't want to see others getting freebies :D

Edit: Have done a sub request post, and will contact Frozen Lama and ask him if he would kindly do a turn or two if a sub doesn't quickly appear.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I would be amenable to a 24 hour delay till we find a sub

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

+1.

Think we've already lost more than enough nations to the AI, so I see no harm in at least trying to do something to avoid losing another one. And adding 24 hours to the current turn would be a great way to help out the sub hunt.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I agree with the delay. Two turns ago Nifelheim was one of the strongest nations. Would be a shame to switch it to AI.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

The Grand Vizier archaeolept temporary takes rulership over the nation of Abysia. But fear not, Valsoray returns soon and will not rest until the sky over entire Faerun turns red.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Hosting delayed 24 hours and Abysian substitute installed.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Jeez, I was king of hoping Nief would be set to AI. Free provs for me. Hey, almost everyone else has gotten some free provs from the prodigious staling.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I got nothing :( Could I nominate one or two of my neighbours to disappear next?

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

not poor C'tis locked in their corner of the world.. :(

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Think the AI plague is only affecting one side of the map. There's not an AI for miles down old Agartha's way.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Is someone playing Neif now? I'd like to know what I'm up agaisnt before I submit my turn.

Jazzepi

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

What's final about victory conditions?
Is it 200 provinces for 3 turn as suggested in the main post, or a certain amount of capitals?

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I'm still playing Nief while I look for a sub.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I think we agreed on 50 VPs?

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Well apparantly not it seems since it appears Niefelheim are now AI this turn. Guess the work I did looking for a sub was a waste of time then. Thanks.

Yet another nation lost to the AI :( and a good one at that.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Well I did originally send in a turn going AI, but I sent in a revised turn before the game hosted with me playing since people didn't want me to go AI. Wouldn't that overwrite the previous one? At any rate, I didn't mean for you to waste your time :(

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

To be honest, I'm not sure you would have found a sub. I'm pretty sure nief is in really bad shape. I don't think he even has a bless worth speaking of beyond N4. All their expansion was with skin shifters, and I haven't seen a single one of the traditional big guys, or a horde of thug commanders.

Jazzepi

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I see a Jarl staring right at me. And I'm about to hit it in the face with a Gorgon.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

I would like to ask for a 2 hour delay, most likely won't need it, but just in case.

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Granted

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

Atlantis will buy:

- Elixirs of Life
- Pendants of Luck
- Rainbow Armors
- reinvig N boots

PM me with prices :)

Re: Legends of Faerun - Closed (Game started)
 

That game is really cursed. Huh, I really never ever had so many bad luck in single game. And most of it has nothing to do with Misfortune. I got not bad starting postion, but all that happened later prevents me from doing anything with that nation, even simplest things.

How about restart with same starting positions? :P
