Re: Ermor BE

Ghouls don't eat? That's just WRONG.

(It's WHAT they eat that defines them as "ghouls", isn't it?)

Re: Effective Communion?

I think casting Bone Grinding using wimpy communion slaves is contraindicated. (Golems and Gygjas, maybe).

Re: Tien Chi, Spring & Autumn or R\'yleh Astral str

Not too severely - 15 gems per clam instead of 10. The bigger obstacle is that you now need 2 water 1 nature to make one, which means you'd need to be pretty lucky to have more than one forger out of...

Victory Conditions

I will have it known that I, Num, God of Jotunheim and Lord of the Big People, am a kind and merciful deity and will not hold a few moments of spirited independence against any near-divinity wishing...

Re: Server up

Fine. Num, the God of Jotunheim, is awaiting incarnation.

Re: Vanhiem - Looking for a little more help

By the way, for some serious fun-with-sailing, try playing Vanheim with both water nations and a couple others on the Urgaia map in single-player. Talk about some serious mobility!

Re: Vanhiem - Looking for a little more help

And checking my math in the actual game, I find that it's a false economy to use a weenie rainbow dude to splash a couple paths - those last couple points to get to 9 are expensive. Moloch 9 fire, 3...

Re: Vanhiem - Looking for a little more help

With the van's native magicians, you have a 3 earth and a 3 air mage immediately available with 1 random each so you have a shot at 4 earth and 4 air. Even without the random air-boost, you can still...

Re: Dom-III screenshots

I would guess that if you're a small-fry game like DomIII, you probably have to promise magazines that you won't put your screen shots on your site until after they've had a chance to do an exclusive...

Re: The Winnowing

With 11 or 12 in the game already (depending on whether TheWatcher plays) I'd say we might want to move to a slightly bigger map - The Desert Eye, maybe. Or Inland. (Going just with the maps that...

Re: The Winnowing (Noob Game) - open

Ah. I usually take nature so I could get gift of health and have my 15-skill summoners get their brains back in order. (As well as gift-of-reason for the odd Vastness that pops up, and living castle...

Re: The Winnowing (Noob Game) - open

At least when I play Rl'yeh, I usually end up doing most of my expanding on land, because my squids are too chicken to go play with the tritons.

Bonus graphic: world map

Right, so here's the final world map as my scouts reported it. Jotunheim had the bulk of the blank area in the southern continent, according to the score graphs. You can see how they're basically all...

Turn 18-conclusion

Turn 18. The Vampire Queen returns, but now instead of a vast host, she is at the head of a pathetic band of slingers, with one infantry and one pikeman still at her call. This time, Cirin is able to...

Turn 16

Just as the people celebrate the unlooked-for return of their God from what seemed like his death, tragedy again strikes the Cirinist faith. In a battle at the Ulmish stronghold, a vampire...

Re: The Winnowing (Noob Game) - open

What map are we playing? Or will you decide that later?

In order of preference, I'd like 1 - Jotunheim 2 - Machaka 3 - Marignon, but I'd be willing to play pretty much anyone but Mictian or...

Re: Unit Size

Ulm's heroes (especially the unicorn-riding ones with the recuperation... hmm... recuperation...) are strong once they get decked out in eg elemental armor and the other fixings.

Turns 14-15

Turn 14

Victory!

Well, in the initial fight, anyway. The plan worked out pretty well. It was just the province defense, which meant 5 infantry, 20 crossbows, and a commander and a priest (which...

Re: Any games going up soon?

Abysia is a bit of a snare and a delusion, on account of all those nifty fire mages never HIT anything with their spells. (And to make much headway with Abysia I had to go into blood magic, which is...

Battle screenshots 1

Well, since you asked nicely, here's the key battle from turn 11 - there won't be any more because I didn't save any of the later turns (except maybe from turn 20-something when I declared victory)....

Turn 12 (plus map from turn 11)

(I just remembered that I'd taken a screen shot after Turn 11, which I'll attach to this one if I can figure out how.)

Turn 12

No messages. Whew.

A smallish legion (more of a squadron,...

Re: Turn 11

The luck did indeed improve. I didn't keep track of when and whether Roderik the Black Lord got his comeuppance, unfortunately. He probably got et by a spider during the big fight after Turn 14.
