UberCat is the admin for this game, so please direct requests for delays etc to him.

Note that the original thread had stuff about not using exploits. I won't bother spelling them out here - everyone is grown up enough not to be interested in using exploits, I'm sure.

The first turn has 48 hours on the clock in case of any difficulties. Subsequent ones will have 24 hours, until you guys reach a consensus that it should be extended to 48.

Oh, another thing. From my own experience, I would say one of the best ways to make it into an awesome game is to do lots of diplomacy and roleplaying. Send your neighbours messages, make plans and alliances. Post here with battle reports and stories of what your pretender's been up to. Between you, you're making an epic.

Thanks Llama

I have my pretender still in the NewLords file but have deleted the freshmeat file with the TRN and First turn.

Do we need to resend in our Pretenders and I WILL need the TRN and first turn file. Thanks

Great Job llamabeast!!

Thanks Ubercat for taking over...

[GrudgeBringer]

BEWARE the Mighty Marverni ParaTrooper Druids!!!

Good Luck to all (I'll need it)

Game question...

If you are allied with a player and have an army on your mutual borders.

Another player attacks your ally in a province that you can help defend.

How can you go into your allies territory and fight the aggressor without attacking your ally?

You can't. The best you could do is ask your allies permission to take his land in order to help him out; then you can return it later after the crises has passed.
