well be careful I've not gone AI yet so you might still need those rings.
Oh btw I have a few Barrel of Air if anyone's interested. and sea king's goblets, free of charge.

CU, that was interesting, yeah so AI does put your defending forces on patrol if the battle takes place in your province well I learned something new today.
I am old enough to probably expire before I get any free gems out of you!

In regard to that battle, I think the patrol only occurs if those troops were given move orders. It's too bad that one disasterous result can drive a very competitive nation to despair.

Well I still have some muscle and my battlefield magic are still much better than Ulm's, but the sheer number of barbarians and his thugs will eventually destroy Tir, the loss was TOO great for me to reverse current situation.

For the time being Atlantis has slight advantage over Ulm but it won't last long, CU is using the textbook strategy he has made a few effective thugs now and it shouldn't take him long to achieve magic diversity, at which point he will take the lead. FYI His homeland security is rather weak atm

Oh btw Tir na n'Og is so much fun to play with, it has a wonderful access to some of the most potent magic combos, and Baobhan Sidhe are simply the cheapest yet effective thugs I've seen. you really should try it if you haven't played with it, just don't make the silly mistake I've made

I have to agree with Fal, the loss that occured on that turn was enough to make anyone go AI, especially the way it happened with like 20-30 of his mages dying one at a time back-to-back.

Unless he gets a 10+ turn period to recoup his losses, he's pretty much done for. And the only way he's going to get that is with outside assistance.

Yeah, I've messed around with Tir na n'Og in SP, and they look really fun. I haven't had the chance to try them in MP yet.

Default C\'tis, going ... going ......

Helheim is using a healthy gem income, perhaps with some help from someone, to keep C'tis well and truly slapped down - I staled the last turn and that didn't help things (my router blew up late in the evening mid-turn, would you believe it) and then I had a busy day away from a computer.

Combined Wrathful Skies and repeated Rain of Stones destroyed my most capable army almost completely (including some of my very limited number of air mages who would have come in handy).

Helheim has some well equipped SCs running around - fewer than I expected so I imagine there are quite a few hiding out around the place to really pile on the pain shortly.

Have to see about getting the turn in...

Yeah, Niefelheim had some well equipped SCs running around at one time. They mostly work for Pangaea now. Must be those naked maeneds in the battlefield. Just too much for the Jarls to resist.

I'm castrating them all from now on.

Tir na N'og, my offer to accept all of your gems will expire this turn. This may be your last chance to part with them, so send them to me quickly, please!

Well Neifelheim had some okay-equipped thugs at one time. It's amazing Pan used charm as main strategy and lasted this long against the mighty double-blessing giants.

Talking about which I might charm a few barbarians myself next turn.

To paraphrase, "Lingchih sucks at this game". Guilty as charged.
