Andean Zorro - MA/diff_research/VPs - game started

[Calahan]

Ah you're right DC, just checked the thread backlog and it was actually 'anticipatient' himself who took over from 'Omnirizon'. Makes things a bit trickier. Best PM llamabeast to request the password or password override I guess.

Be great if you could volunteer for the admin post DC. I'd happily do it, but I know that during October+November I'll be away for a few weeks here and there, so might not be the most reliable person during that time to spot problems and delay requests etc.

[DonCorazon]

ok, I will check in with Llama to see if I can take over and in the meantime look for a sub/AI switcher.

[llamabeast]

Anticipatient broke his monitor. He said so further up the thread. Unfortunate as he was in 10 games or so.

I'll send DC the admin password.

[Calahan]

Thanks once again llamabeast. Have a few pints on me for all of your continuous help. Or maybe just one pint depending on what exactly it's a pint of

[DonCorazon]

Calahan, how do you post while you're offline - its quite mysterious.

Now I remember Anti's broken monitor but somehow i thought he was still getting his turns in. Anyway, we'll see if we can find someone to review his position. The AIs in this game seem to be pretty effective opponents from what I have seen of Eriu and R'yleh

[DonCorazon]

Ok, for the record, BesucherXia has graciously offered to take control of Ermor from anticipatient.

[Kheldron]

erf for a reason I don't understand Llamaserver didn't get my last orders and made me stale. It's sad as I had some last tricks to play before calling off.

Well, fate rules in the end.

As a last note I wanted to tell you something strange about fate : remember that turn when I attacked Marignon and Pangea came to his help ? At that time there had been a problem with the Llamaserver which had made us postpone the game. During that postpone I had finally decided it may not be wise to go on attacking so soon after taking Shinuyama and changed my orders to some things more peaceful.
For some reason, the server didn't use my new orders and...well, you know the rest.

Anyway, I had great fun in playing this game. I learnt a lot.
Thank you all and see you in another game.

[BesucherXia]

As far as I can tell, Ermor is about to be eliminated. Though the capitol defense may hold a little longer, they are running out of resource for any counterattack.

I believe the Pythians are on their right way to success, so if anyone else will run against them and avenage me, I will give him what I left. Personlly I will not set the race into Ai until the last fort is lost.

Also, thank DonCorazon for giving me this chance to sub. I learned a lot since this is my first MP game at later phase.
Sorry for anticipatient if I had missed his original plan and had not done things better.

[Dragar]

Don't worry, pretty sure you were into a lost cause when you started. Hmmm where is pyhtium going next? Will they dare venture into Abysian lands??

[DonCorazon]

Kheldron: Good game, not that Pythium was ever able to see any of those battles being so far from the West, but we were surprised you were able to hold out as long as you have against so many. See you in the next one...

BesucherXia: You have done quite well, putting my pretender into the grave among other things. I am not sure that you need to bribe anyone to avenge Ermor, ours has been a well-fought war with mutual respect and it has cost Pythium dearly in resources (after all seeking arrows aren't free ) and lives (RIP Willow). It seems the one who has profited from this war the most is Abysia - just look at the research lead they have taken and the ~40 gems they get from untouched global enchantments each turn. While Pythium spends its lives and gems and pours its blood into every inch of Ermorian graveyard soil, the Abysians horde their wealth and gems and prepare their great war machine - do they really need even more?

Dragar: It is too hot in Abysia for the war weary folk of Pythium.
