Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

New turn went up, apparently 4 hour ago or so.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

would just like to declare that ctis and man are both gona attack me so good bye and farewell everyone

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

hey, give 'em as good as you can - i'm sure you can make them feel a bit of pain http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

like i said i will launch a last ditch attack and fail

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

turn up!

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

i made a stupid mistake, i letmy 1 mage holding the meat shield go back to my capitol so all my mages i sent in got longbowed to death :C

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Ah, I was wondering what happened there. I had a scout there to watch the battle and was quite confused.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

another stupid mistake like what happened in my last mp game (bunched up smiths vrs falling frost) atleast i learnt not to bunch up or my casualties wouldve been higher. if only i had the small shield there i couldve got that air shield up and then possibly burnt all those minds to death.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

New turn! BTW, sorry for the delays. I was laid off from my job of 8 years and I've been hella busy trying to get my life back on track. So please bear with me...

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Sorry, and good luck - I was laid off after 15 years, hope it doesn't take 18 months for you like it did for me. (But now - my own business http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif )

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Cainehill, that's the way I'm thinking of going as well, actually (own business). Got any pointers? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

BTW everybody, Pangaea snuck attack me! Take a look at the leaderboard and you'll see that he's grown substantially. He took a bunch of my undefended territories after years of peace. The treacherous bastard!

If we let him continue he's going to be too strong to stop! So step up and fight the power before it's too late!! Attack him now while his troops are away against me (although they'll soon learn the error of their wild ways....) MUHAHAHAHA!

Turn back now, o' wild goat-men, or ye shall feel the righteous wrath of the holy flames of Marignon!!

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Sorry, but I had to attack someone to keep up with Ulm. Man was weak, Abysia was crippled and I hate fighting C'tis, those plus you accounts for all my borders. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I would be happy to work out a peace agreement if you would cede some terriitory, I assure you constant raiding would reduce your income more. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Oh, and no I did not attack Caleum.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

I'm not so much weak, as over extended http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Heh. My only pointer, which doesn't help you much, is to have a client from the get go. Was freelancing via Robert Half for 3 months, the client wanted me to leave them and go independent so he'd pay less, and I'd get paid more. Given I hadn't seen anyone else in New Mexico who needed high end skills, I jumped. Haven't figured out yet whether I'm making more - suspect I may be, just because so many things wind up being deductable from income _before_ it's counted as income.

Oh - guess that is a pointer. Start keeping track of _everything_, and get an account just for the business, one that gives you check images with your statement. Even little things add up - my (cute) accountant got me to figure out mileage, since 44 - 48 cents a mile adds up, when you figure 15 percent of that gets dropped from self employment tax (Soc Security, Medicare), and at least 15 percent from income tax, and then there's state income tax. And find an accountant you can get along with, who specializes in small businesses. Good luck to you - with Pangaea, and the business http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Cede my rightful territory? BAH! I will take back everything you've taken and then I will march into your forests and burn them down! I'll weed out every last goat man and string them up by the horns and skin them alive and then scorch the bloody corpses to ash! I'll save you for last. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/mad.gif

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

well once ctis and man are done dividing up my provinces ctis will be an even bigger problem so you will face them sooner or later

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

is there any-one here who would like a bunch of gems just gimme a call because i know i will die (no army and maybe 6 mages left) so im willing to give them away (they will be all alched to astral, there should be between 100-120)

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

LOL!! This statement is SO Marignon! I love it!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Yah. Tho keep in mind that if you bring a meatshield and it routs, all your commanders will rout too, regardless of strength.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

no they wont, i didnt have them set to guard commander or anything

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

If there's only one squad and it routes, the commanders will follow (under most circumstances).

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

had them split in more than 1 (not as easily killed by arrows)

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

just vanheim and machaka w/ 16 hrs left.

here's hoping http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

edit: now down to the vans...

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Can't start a war with both of them, on top of my current war, but I am the one who is keeping our treaty, just in case it's the last provinces you might come back to, up north.

Ermor

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

your theurges would have still died, the longbowmen didn't kill them, my scouts or artifact wardens did. They all carry longbows of accuracy, and don't aim at the front lines.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

heh nice that you're still using them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

mine both died...

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

well I lost one, but the other still fires true!

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

i still dont think they would have died, if they had survived 1 more turn they would have cast air shield and then spammed mind burn

ps: turns up and one of your long-bowing wardens is dead now thanks to a cheap little spell of mine

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

newt urn

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

yup, poor poor warden. I am impressed that such a large group of vengefull spirits came after him - he really did his share of damage.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

yup, and i may have to remove my gem offer as my 100 or so gems are bing alchemized for rituals (oh and iron hawk, taking only 4 units that are not mindless vrs a fort stuffed with astral mages is not a good thing)

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

seemed to have been enough to take out your PD anyway. I guess it was a risk he took, that you wouldn't have astral mages patrolling.

(and there where 5 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif)

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

only thing i dont understand is why he didnt go with miamasa as they are superior skele spammers (quickness+relief)

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

wasn't there a rule against those kinds of dominions? no one wants to neighbor miasma

he wouldn't have lasted long at all

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

New turn.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

good point, forgot about that

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

As you can now see, it was in fact, a very good thing http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif They were only the vanguard for the main force, sent to stop your capitals production.

Miasma Sauros are not as capable death casters. I like base casters better. Plus Wish is right - if you have a negative dominion like that, people have a tendency to mob you.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

Turn is up

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

i knew they were meant to stop production but still miamasa marsh master with relief+quickness really have an edge over base sauros

ps: about 100 or so blackhawks+a pretender just got owned by a pangean master druid thug :p

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

well whadya expect when you are trying to take his castle. and you weren't even at war with him. hawks are awful anyway, they usually route on turn 2 or 3 of a fight.

Re: Mictlan\'s Pretender
 

thing is i was just giving some-one trouble before i went down, i know i cant be saved so why not have some fun? i just targeted a radon area for my hark landing and it turned out to be a castle

Turn is up
 

Turn is up. (is there an echo in here?)

Oops!!!
 

So... I just realized that I completely forgot to mention that I will be away and unable to access a computer from friday night until monday night. Going to the Sundance Film Fest, which should be fun. Sorry again about giving such little warning :/ Is it ok to switch the server to untimed quickhost when I leave on friday?

Re: Oops!!!
 

sure np w/ me. turns are beginning to get longer anyways...

Re: Oops!!!
 

Sundance... so close and yet so far away. I know plenty of disappointed people that missed out on tickets; you are either lucky or have your act together.

Re: Oops!!!
 

But we still have a turn Friday?

Re: Oops!!!
 

well, shovah is gone - hope you enjoyed yourself shovah

Huntsman - it looks like you staled, but it seems your armies did well anyways http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif - probably a slower turn over the weekend will be good for you.

In other news, machaka kicked my butt http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Oops!!!
 

Don't you believe it! We may have won a battle, but as for the war... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/Sick.gif...the good people of Machaka are overrun with Ulmish hordes...and Vanheim opportunists...
