Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting
Welcome back!
The game is up to receive pretenders : http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo....adful_Fates_II |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting
Tests show this isn't map for R'lyeh. You are in war with everyone very fast:).
So I am taking Mictlan. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting
Yeah indeed i think it s better if we have no water nations.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting
IRC user EndymionAwake would like to play as Agartha. I believe this would be his first MP game.
He'd be posting himself, but hasn't been activated by a Shrapnel admin yet. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting
I think you missed it but I said I wanted Abysia. Pretender will be in later today.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Ty Squirrel.
I ve updated main post for Both requests. Waiting to hear from EndymionAwake. The game will start on saturday morning and there is still 2 potentials slots available. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Add me as Gath.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
So we have a last slot if someone want to join.
And we are waiting for 4 pretenders. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
I am interested. I have trouble installing the game after a quite a long leave (my cd-station is out of order right now).
Maybe you can wait for couple of hours I get the game up and running? If not, I am happy to let someone else take this last seat. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Ok i keep you the free slot 'til tomorrow night, keep us posted.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Ok, howdy, this is the Agartha that Squirrelloid was nice enough to reserve a spot for while the forums were activating for me. As he stated, this is my first game, so try not to laugh too much as I fall to pieces once the tiniest amount of pressure is placed on me.
My pretender is already in. (and I already regret it! Bah, honor is honor though, I'm locked in... and its not like its the worst... it should be quite playable.) |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
you know you can resend pretenders? Just send a new one and it'll overwrite the old one.
and it woudl make sense for MP games to activte private messages. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Midgard! Sending pretender tomorrow, as it has gotten really late here in Finland already. Thanks for patience!
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Yeah, you can re-send pretenders & turns all the way up until the next turn hosts. The server simply uses the last one received, so if you receive info thru private messages that makes you want to change your moves you can do it.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Well then maybe I've done that then. Or maybe not. Muahahaha. Oh, and I did activate private messaging... even though I think intrigue/diplomacy may be my main weakness.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Great we have enough players for a great game and only 2 pretenders missing. The game will start tomorrow morning or earlier if all pretenders are in.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Wow, waiting for me then? I will make haste making my pretender.
Only.. I need to think of of a name. That is so hard. Go for a normal name, something threatening, something mysterious, something funny... help me here people. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
When I was searching for a name for this one I just looked around from where I was sitting and the first thing my eye cought sight of was the whiskey bottle to my left.
Hence the name of my pretender: Oban |
Re: Dreadful fates II - Recruiting & Awaiting pretenders.
Pretender sent! Managed not to be the last :) There is still two pretenders unsent.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - Awaiting pretenders.
Pretender in. One left to go.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Woot ready to go! Let's see if I can manage to not mangle this game too badly.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Luck 3: check. Disastrous event on turn 3: check. Sigh: check.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Is anyone interested in Water Gems? I have quite a few of them.
I want Death Gems in exchange. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Anyone else having trouble getting their 2h file accepted? Keep getting an error message from llamaserver that says:

Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Llama being acting weird today. I got mine accepted but it doesnt show in the list.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Yeah, nevermind, I fixed it. Just an minor IOHS error.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
I sent my turn once just now and it told me that it received my version and then immediately a revised version, hopefully just a quirk in the system.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
that happens every once in a while when the server is acting up.
Tip: it is right now. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Yuck, bad turn, was debating which province to move my mercs into and chose the wrong one.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Ironically enough, my god was there only because I staled. Now why haven't I seen your Moloch in action yet? Seems to me he should be raiding all over the place by now.
|
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Now that we dont have score graphs enabled, I would like to hear bits of intel from all the corners of the shadowshore!?

Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Cool I'm glad that my guys cast Summon Imp against an army of 20 undead troops instead of banishments and smites like I asked them to. Can't really see myself lasting too much longer against Ulm here, I'm down to four provinces and just lost my prophet. On an aside I am really starting to hate this game, takes too much damn thought and effort to go and just get wiped out right away.

Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
The night was mild and starry, you could see the Cockatrice and the Maiden rising in the east, the Hound and Dragon in the west. Bael leered against a stone, warmed by his own heat, pondering the war against the northmen. They had suffered losses against the wretched northmen, yes, and now were trapped behind enemy lines. But Abaddon, prophet of Gath'un remained calm as always and commanded faith and hope in his loyal men. Beal knew Abaddon would not fail them, the power of the true god guiding his steps. And Bael was his apprentice, chosen to stand by the side of the flaming prophet himself. No, they would fight their way back with fire and steel, fresh troops awaiting home in Abysia to crush the northmen, melt their ice, cook them alive in those heavy armour they wore. Gath'un himself had awakened, the prophet had seen it in the fires, no living creature could stand against Gath'un, the essence of fire, the smouldering Moloch of Abysia. Bael smiled as he pondered the northmens demise, saw images of his own glory and ascension. I will become the greatest of the Dragons he promised himself, and lost his thoughts in sweet burning dreams.
A chill in the air woke him. A chill? It's not possible, him and his brothers fire should keep the heat, not to mention the smouldering prophet. Yet there it was, a cold wind sweeping over the camp. A mist thick as pinesmoke. He saw his brothers stir in their sleep, waking with grunts and moans. Abaddon stood alert by the fire, peering into the night. Something was not right, "this is the work of dark magics" he said gloomily "Bael, ready yourself, the enemy is near". The Abysian infantrymen made a shield wall around the two mages and their virgins. Shields gleaming with the water that steamed off the cold mist, smoke rising from red skin. Slowly they came, lurching out of the woods. Tall and silent in black tainted plates, carrying rusted halberds. Their faces pale and rotting, some missing parts where the blackened skull showed through. But it was the eyes that caught Baels gaze, pale blue eyes that shone like icy stars in the rotting faces, eyes that never blinked, eyes with but one emotion. Hunger. Bael felt the chill reaching out of those eyes and take hold inside him, they are not alive he thought, not alive. But they can yet be killed. Abaddon screamed a command, and he and bael each seized a virgin girl and cut her throat in one fluid motion. The blood spurted out and took fire, driving the mist away for a moment. From the lowest of hells came the sqeaking imps forth, threw themselves against the ghouls. But the ghouls moved faster than Bael would have thought possible, and cut the imps down in the air, hardly pausing. The Abysians stood bravely, but the dead brought their halberds down with inhuman strength and cleaved shields and armor alike. Bael froze in terror when he saw how the ghouls ripped the flesh off fallen enemies and stuffed it into their drooling mouths. He cast a few more spells, but little did it help other than to drain his last energy. He fell to his knees in despair, and before him the last Abysians fell, cut down and eaten. A shadow larger than any other stood before him, a ghoul with a flowing red cape and flail instead of halberd. The ghoul baron, the fallen captain of the ancient Ulmish guard, risen anew. Bael knew the stories, but had naught believed them until now. "It's only a bad dream" Bael thought as Ulrich Patrifagus ripped his heart out. Bael slipped into darkness with the fading image of the ghoul baron devouring the steaming heart. It was still beating. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
^OK that was awesome and assuaged my disappointment/annoyance/fury about my guys casting the wrong stupid spells. Seriously, I'd feel totally justified if someone wrote an AAR like that everytime after whupping my ***.
Also, I guess I was one smite away from killing your pretender and also on the verge of killing your Ghoul Baron before my guys decided it would be more fun to run away, so I can't be too upset with myself. Been an unfortunate game so far since that first turn. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Well that was a poor time to stale...
I had at least 2 good chances to submit my turn and just forgot, oh well. |
Re: Dreadful fates II - (Running)
Mercy!?!
Midgard has been overrun by Mictlan and Marignon, We hereby ask for mercy from either of the attackers and ask humbly if you could spare us one province to serve our lord who would be our mighty benefactory and warden! Even forgiveness would be granted to whoever granted us this wish be it even our attackers. We just would like to continue our dabblings into small magics with no real danger against anyone! - Ottar the prophet of surrendering pretender whom fully acknowledges the superiority of Mictlan god and the might of Marignon as well |
