Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (1/7)
 

Well, based on how things are going in No_NAPs_Land I should have an opening for another game any turn now so please sign me up for Van (actually my first time playing MA Van under CBM 1.92).

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (1/7)
 

yeah, i thought it will boil down to this :)

very welcome!

(and i would like to thank u for that idea of 30 hrs-hosting, i got it from u and find it a great idea, use it in nearly all my games)

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (2/7)
 

I'll give Ashdod another try.
Even though they are pretty weak in CBM 1.92

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (2/7)
 

I'd like to try Ermor.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (2/7)
 

welcome!

game has been set up.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (2/7)
 

Shinumaya thx.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (2/7)

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

we are gonna use the 2010.05.09 version. thanks holeydooley!

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (1/7)
 

You probably also realized that I'd go back and forth between Eriu and Van. So please change me to Eriu ... I think. Well, a pretender for one of those two nations will show up at the server. :p

I'd like to take the credit but it wasn't my idea. I think I've sometimes used it but I took the idea from someone else who was using it as their hosting interval. But I'm glad it's working out well!

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

ok, i will update your nation when we have started the game :)

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

I'm waffling also. Think I want to go Mictlan.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

its first come first served then.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

and as i already said the game has been set up on the server, waiting for pretenders

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

guys, lets pretend that a 24 hrs hosting interval has been implemented on pretender creation. we are waiting for four still.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

Lol. :) Sorry about that. About 75% sure I'm going with Van but I haven't decided on a build yet. Promise I'll have my pretender ready within 12 hours.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

austen, we are waiting for u.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

I think Austen sent in the Mictlan pretender so we are waiting on Ossa's Ermor.

But, um, that's given me time to change my mind again. :p Can you kick out my Van pretender so I can switch to Eriu? I can have a new pretender ready in the next few hours.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

oh, yes, sorry austen. i just didnt find ur ctis:)

vanheim deleted.

Re: Game of Dorian, game started
 

so ossa, we are all waiting for u.

im gonna reopen recruitment when the 24hrs imaginary hosting time expires. (about 4 hours later)

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting 1 more player, asap
 

I have reopened the recruitment for ossa's place. whoever applies here AND sends in his pretender first, will play. ossa, u still have time, altho im not sure how much.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting 1 more player, asap
 

Ok, ossa is officially gone, we are just looking for the last player to start.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

Sorry for the delay - I was sick and forgot the look up the games which I enrolled to. May I still send in (right now;) ?

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

absolutely :)


im glad u r back and healthy!

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

Wait! I want to switch back to Van. J/K :p

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

eriu deleted

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

umm, sorry, i didnt know what "J/K" meant. please valerius send ur pretender in again.

Re: Game of Dorian, recruiting (6/7)
 

Sure, pretender sent. Sorry about that.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

EDIT: Guess not.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Lol. Now that's an interesting start location. Not as bad as my start in Tarrax2 but that position was so bad that the game could have sent me a message the first turn saying "you have lost." :p

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Did Pythium ask for a delay? First turn has been out there more than 30 hours and still has quite some time to go before it processes.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

i guess llamaservers troubles delayed hosting.

tigerclub, are u still with us? let me remind u that "this game is intended to be a fast paced one."

i know its only one turn, so i dont intend it to be nudging.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

So all my other games are no diplo so let's get some talking in this thread. :)

News from Eriu this month: The Elephant Corps mercenary band will likely not be receiving a contract renewal after an unfortunate run-in with some hydras resulted in a downsizing of their workforce. However, Hannibal himself still remains alive and vows to regroup from this setback (and never work for Eriu again even if they do ask).

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

I have heard, that tigercub is thinking about giving the game up. I have turned quickhost off and delayed hosting until this is solved.

Tigercub, i would like you to know that im looking forward to getting to know you more as a player, and playing with you in games in the future (as it happened with valerius, ghoul and ossa just to name the players from this game). and I would like to express that - perhaps you also think that too - without setbacks one cant work on his limits learn how to play better and experience success. I consider your position quite potent still, and i was surprised to hear about ur current thoughts ( i admit i see ur position from a different aspect).

whatever your choice is, its up to u, but i would like u to know that I will consider it a loss if u didnt remain.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Last i saw i was the only player with the turn in!

so turn quickhost back on and get on with it!

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Game on it seems, set the to auto thanks.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

oh, k, let slip the dogs of war!:D

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

ill do a turn on sunday (the first)then i am going away untill the 4th...sorry to hold things up if you need to roll a turn or 2 i understand...

Tiger

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

no problem, we gonna wait u.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Ashdod is definatly unplayable in CBM 1.92

going AI

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Hey guys, I went AI. I still have a few guys running around, but I think I may just not be cut out for Dom 3. I've been playing an awful lot lately, and I have lost literally every fight to this point that wasn't just a complete pushover for my team and quite a few that were.

I'm also not getting any better. I'm clearly wrecked here, despite the fact that I was in a pretty good position. Rather than spending the amazing amount of time that I do plotting moves that turn my enormous piles of powerful units into piles of corpses and items, I think I need to try and learn what I'm doing a little better.

Thanks for the game and maybe I will catch you guys in another game sometime if I ever get some sort of clue how to play. :)

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

this turn i got 5 random events, 4 positive, and one just like the spell "Black Death", in a province where it is most damaging. Im 99% sure Shinuyama has violated our NAP.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

and a blight too.

life is sure adventurous in Towen :D

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

Please postpone hosting by 24 hours as I won't have a chance to complete my turn today. Thanks!

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

postponed.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
 

All done in on my end.

Time for the AI to see out the last 2 battles.
