Back from the Dead...

Emperor's Child · #1 May 16th, 2006, 02:36 PM

Interistingly, I believe I have brought an empire back from the dead... offically listed as such on the turn report yet I'm still in the game. How you ask? In a recent game I began the withdawal process after it was apparent I was loosing my empire to intel attacks. I had gifted my planets and ships to another player, but the game owner changed the rules to stop that type of tactic and asked that I return and arranged for the other player to gift the planets back. Lo and behold when I opened my turn, I was listed as dead (no surpirse there), but I was able to accept the gift and apparently I'm back in the game again. Pretty cool, no? I'll re-name my empire the Necromongas.

Its seems your zombies aren't very good at combat

You're set for universal domination.

Just beware bald furyans with swimming goggles. Or Dame Judi Dench.

On second thoughts, Definitely fear Dame Judi Dench, her sarcasm can raze empire's to it's foundations.

Well, All I gotta say is NEVER, under ANY circumstances, bring back something from the dead. Like Dr. Frenkenstein found out, yes you could do it, but it does not guarantee you can control the monster. My zombie officers seemed to develop a taste for brains... and commenced to attack anything and everything they saw. The first turn we processed after coming back from the dead my ships attacked everybody without thought to any standing agreements or treaties... and the empire is still listed as dead, too. I believe that the game goes off into undiscovered territory once you come back from the dead.

Fascinating, really. I've had glimpses of this madness on PBW games before, but someone's always shut it down before fertilizer hit the ventilator.

Please, do let it go and keep us informed of the mayhem. I'm curious.
