Wow, I accidentally sent in my OLD 2h file and staled my great attack!

Question: Reverse communion, how is that different from a normal communion? Shouldn't all that fatigue from all those spells wear down your casters (because it is shared)?

Reverse comunion uses the fact that caster cast following their placement in the army setup page. So if you cast comunion slave but casta every turn before the master you will be able to cast.

The idea is using boosters, phoenix power, summon earthpower, light of northern star, astral power... so that slaves (the majority) can now cast better spells instead of S1 crap. Of course, you have to be carefull so that mages do not die of fatigue and it's quite risky if you set it up incorrectly.

Ok guys, I used to play a lot of Warcraft 3 and once the game was beyond doubt it was customary to simply say 'gg' and resign. (I got a lot of practice at that...)

In this game I've been hanging around because it's multiplayer and I even though my own fate is beyond doubt, I may play some small role, and I wouldn't want my resignation to affect the outcome.

However, I think we're at the point where that won't happen. I'll certainly stick around if people would prefer, but does anyone mind if I become AI controlled? Aezeal will take my last fort in 2 turns and then I'll just consist of a bunch of 2 resource sea provinces are aren't even worth him taking.

This game has been an awful lot of fun! Like I say, I want to do the right thing, and I can continue just taking my turns but I'd much rather start turning my attention towards the new games that are starting up.

PS: Karlem - thanks so much for the tips - exactly what I needed!

There's nothing wrong going AI when you think there's nothing left that's worth captaining. After all, just pressing end turn isn't very fun.

If you're going now, I thank you for taking part this most excellent game we have had here.

PS: See you in Kingmaker

I agree. Go AI, no problem.

I also played WC3 a lot

I'm glad it helped you. See you next time. Good luck on that new game!

A quick report from the trenches

Ulm continues to pester Mictlan as this turn I killed the ice devil Nycafor(he folded pretty easily to communion-powered paralyze+soul slay). In addition to that joyous victory I managed to feeblemind the ice devil Gaap, which means he will be easy pickings whenever I manage to fight him again.

Otherwise it was the usual take some provinces/lose some provinces. Oh, let's not forget our monthly toad monsoon, which rained into every fort I have as usual.

Thanks guys - gg! See you around no doubt!

PS: who wants to take over the admin? or do you just want me to post the password? I think the only action left to do is to declare the game over at some point. With 48 hour hosting delays are rare.
