Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
I'd like to give Ulm a try -- I have some ideas on how to take advantage of CBM's diversity. Plus I won't be easy to kill early on.

mockingbird January 14th, 2012 11:15 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Well, since Bullock threw down the gauntlet - Mictlan. I've never tried the EA version. :)

What kind of xp do you have ? your account seems kinda noob.

KeithZ January 14th, 2012 11:40 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Lots of SP experience and just little MP with the guy who introduced the game to me

I just register here and want to play with some different people:p

Bullock January 14th, 2012 11:45 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Alright ! Let's have a try then. Welcome in.

Thanks! Don't expect me to be kicked out easily, I do know how to play that nation.:)

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Hey I'd like to join. I've had 4 games reaching late game. and then I had to get some subs because of exams. I'd like to join as EA Fomoria.

And let the Giant rumble begin.

quick question though: By saying that everything is allowed in diplomacy does that include trade agreements?

bbz January 14th, 2012 01:26 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Actually I've decided to pass on this one. Count me out. Have fun though!

bbz January 14th, 2012 02:28 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Hmm sorry for being so indecisive.I think I might still decide to play. (the question on diplomacy is quite important though: If you make trade agreement with someone (exchange gems for items etc. you still have to follow it right?))

Bullock January 14th, 2012 04:53 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Sry dude but i'm not taking people who are leaving games at half way.

bbz January 14th, 2012 06:09 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Just to clarify quickly the situation of the games(I dont like leaving games either but sometimes real life is more important)
1 of them was declared over, me and 2 other guys being declared winners.(before i needed to leave i wrote 4 games coz it was eaier to do without clarifying what exactly happened it was actually 3 games that i was looking to find a sub for)
2nd game I was with an ally and there was only 1 other nation left(whom we had to engage together) so the game was as good as won(my ally won on his own shortly after)
3rd game A sub was found immediately = no changes.

And I do take the blame for the forth one where I expected that someone was going to volunteer to sub. (I was top in that game in terms of territory (gems aswell)and i had 90% all the unique arties (well the best of them hammers mage bane bla bla)+ 20% reduction site for forging and enchantment + 2 more capitals and an AI player's capital next to my lands(I was about to besiege that at the time)) and I had to take 2 more capitals to win... Oh and I had arranged a dogpile on the next most powerful nation:) SO I was really pissed off that noone voluteered to finish that game:). It was as good as done.

But yea sometimes RL is quite a bit more important than the game. And ofc you have the right not to let me play if you see it like that, but i see it as having screwed up only 1 game that was as good as mine anyways:).

Anyways. Have a nice game:)

bbz January 14th, 2012 06:42 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
I guess all I was trying to say is that I'm not the kindof guy that leaves when things get bad halfway through. I left(trying desperately to find subs for games with really good winning chances(almost certain) because I had to.:)

Anyways if you change your mind feel free to pm me. And if not have fun!:)

Bullock January 14th, 2012 06:52 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Well since you seems motivated to get in and also because you have, indeed, left those games at least in a honorable way i ll give you a chance.

But i still think you shouldn't join games if you know you can't play 'til the end, especially that many games stopped for a scheduled events (your exams).

So welcome in !

Bullock January 14th, 2012 06:58 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
We are 8 !
I'm planning to start the game early next week, so start working on your pretender. :evil:

And the game is still recruiting until the launch for up to 4 slots.

Thats a good point. The thing is, I was kindoff expecting to reduce them to 2 or 1 by reaching the end game(aka loose)(but unfortunately all of them got there).

Anyways, Thanks for letting me in:)

Bullock January 15th, 2012 08:53 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Lol Bbz changed his mind again, so we are back to 7.

Bullock January 16th, 2012 08:53 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
I think we will wait for a last player and launch the game.
Unless you guys want to wait for more.

GFSnl January 16th, 2012 09:26 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
I'll play Formoria if you have me :)

I can submit my pretender tonight.

Bullock January 16th, 2012 09:32 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Great !
So we start tonight unless you want to wait for more or if some1 join by that time.

GFSnl January 16th, 2012 09:58 AM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
If someone else want to join, no prob.

Otherwise eight is fine too with me...

GFSnl January 16th, 2012 04:16 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Pretender is in :)

Bullock January 16th, 2012 04:31 PM

Re: Another World - EA - Recruiting
 
Ok lets start this :)

Good luck everyone.

KeithZ January 20th, 2012 12:31 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
I can't believe it I took luck 2 but none of the random event I met was good up till now...:mad:

krpeters January 20th, 2012 07:25 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
I've noticed that the CBM events seem generally worse than Vanilla events. Your best hope is to get a lot of provinces quickly so the bad events don't pound your capital.

krpeters January 23rd, 2012 08:00 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
OK, why are all the indy scouts hiding from me? Come out come out wherever you are!

Bullock January 23rd, 2012 10:34 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Hey, got the same problem ...

@Tigercub: You are currently not accepting private message, which won't help you for diplo. You should check your options (you are currently in the default state)

Just want to say that i'm planning to invade land 167, if we could avoid the shock of our army it would be nice!

KeithZ January 24th, 2012 06:54 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
I think my private message isn't work now, either. How can I enable it?

KeithZ January 24th, 2012 06:59 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Yeah, I found it. It has been turned on now.

krpeters January 26th, 2012 07:36 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Someone needs to fix the Dominions RNG. I just got hit by three Brigands events in a row. C'mon!

mockingbird January 31st, 2012 03:06 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
We might be in danger of a Neifelheim stale.

Extend turn and contact player?

krpeters January 31st, 2012 07:42 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Too late, it seems, unless someone saved the previous turn on the server. I wonder if he was watching 24 Hrs at Daytona over the weekend too?

Bullock February 1st, 2012 01:52 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
i ve extended this turn for 24h because of Neifelheim.
If he's not back at the end of those 24h i ll extend the turn 'til a sub is found.

krpeters February 1st, 2012 08:10 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Any word yet from Tigercub?

KeithZ February 3rd, 2012 08:00 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Hey guys, I think I need some help.

I tried to upload my 2h file, but everytime I just got a "Mail Delivery Failed" notice like this immediately

Your message to turns@llamaserver.net was rejected by the recipient domain. The error that the other server returned was:
" SMTP error, RCPT TO: 550-"JunkMail rejected - mail.corpease.net [61.145.121.44]:52717 is in an RBL

550 http://psbl.surriel.com/listing?ip=61.145.121.44"".

Your original message is included as attachment.


I have no idea now... can anyone tell me what's wrong?

Bullock February 3rd, 2012 01:20 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
The server are down for a while now, it might be linked with your problem.
Keep us posted if the problem persist when the server are back.

krpeters February 4th, 2012 07:25 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
What is the current server status? I just got a turn file for another game, but I'm not getting any response to a request for turn resend or a reply to the turn I submitted.

Bullock February 5th, 2012 06:56 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Yeah LLamaserver has met some problem lately.
Hopefully it will be solved soon

tigercub February 14th, 2012 07:49 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Hi guys in the latest turn i routed Abysia for the map when he attacked me in the battle report...but when going into my turn it seems i have lost the battle and i Routed!! i am at a lost to understand this?
i sent the turn in anyway.

sorry for the delay before had a quick trip over the other side of the crountry!

Tigercub

Bullock February 14th, 2012 07:56 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
You have met what i'm considering as the worst bug of this game.

Nobody can exactly tell what happens. I've heard plenty of rumors on it, such as difference of chipset between user comp and server who compute the turn or a bug between two version of the game/mods ?!
But some other people have met this bug in solo too, so ...

However it seems more frequent in MP than SP.

Hopefully the next time you meet it, it's going to be in your favor :)

HoleyDooley February 14th, 2012 11:33 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Hi guys,

I am out so going AI.

Thanks for the game.

I am going to try Abysia next time, or another era of that nation because I have seen them go ballistic in 3 games and no one has come up with an answer to combat them.

The reason I want to try them out is so as I can hopefully have someone show me how to tackle them.

Also I think I designed my pretender to be towards the end game, which doesn't help.

Dooley

KeithZ February 14th, 2012 11:46 AM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
To tigercub: Sorry, it seems to be the bug helped me (or maybe I actually won the battle but the report was wrong?), I am quite confused too. Some mages of mine were killed in the battlefield, but they turned out to be still alive on the map, I have no idea of what happened as well. :confused:

mockingbird February 14th, 2012 12:04 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
The report is correct, but the replay is wrong.

I don't think Abysia is so hard to be countered. It's pity that Hinom can't cast Rain, but you should use Fire Fend and Destruction.

HoleyDooley February 14th, 2012 12:38 PM

Re: Another World - EA - (Running)
 
Thanks for the tips Keith.

There are so many smells you need to know, which is part of the beauty oh the game.

Big, big learning curve.
