We've reached turn 40 so, as per the game description, the hosting interval has been changed to 72 hours.

Caelum went AI this turn. Good run, Graeme Dice, until you ended up the odd man out in the sequence of dogpiles in the north. Honestly, this will help me out by not having to deal with a human defender on Caelum's cap and other fort I'm besieging. Eriu also benefits in besieging the third and final Caelian fort.

Another benefit is that if Shin's army of thugs continues south they'll reach Caelum's cap this turn and can fight Caelum for me. ;) We've got kind of a thug exchange program going - Shinu's thugs continue their path into Vanheim territory and this turn several Vanjarls toured the Shinuyama countryside. :)

I added 12 hours to the clock since I needed a little more time and also noticed C'tis' turn wasn't in yet.

Re: Battleground - CBM, max lvl 6 magic, no site search/research - Running
 

Sorry, I need more time again and C'tis' turn is also outstanding so I'm adding more time to the clock.

Sorry for the continued delays in hosting. Squirrelloid asked me to postpone hosting over Thanksgiving and I haven't heard from him since. It looks like he logged in yesterday but unfortunately I didn't PM him until afterwards. I'm waiting to hear back (or for him to just send in his turn).

Well, after all that I lost track of the hosting time and forgot to extend it again, resulting in a stale for C'tis. Sorry about that, Squirrelloid. :(

I've thought it over and Bloodletting doesn't belong in this game so I won't be using it anymore. I don't have any memory of it when I was going over the spell lists so I don't know if I just missed it or thought maybe it would be ok. Regardless, it's a battlefield wide offensive spell and won't be in the next game.

Another spell I wonder about is Iron Bane. It doesn't do direct damage but is battlefield wide and I'm not sure we want to make it that easy to eliminate armor. But for now I'll still use that one since both my opponents can cast it as well as buff their own troops with wooden warriors so we're on equal footing.

I'm going to need a little more time to plan for Eriu's attack. Adding 12 hours to hosting.

Re: Battleground - CBM, max lvl 6 magic, no site search/research - Running
 

stop extending it, you're just letting me procrastinate longer =P

Re: Battleground - CBM, max lvl 6 magic, no site search/research - Running
 

Ok, once I finish my turn I'll walk away from the computer and not check it until after hosting time - so no last minute extensions. ;)

Anyway, at least here you're in a fight to the death - but you're killing me in Momentum as you're finally at peace and are still procrastinating. :p
