atlantis understands,

also it seems agartha has wandered an army of 60 men onto an air alter. Atlantis would like to warn that attacking the air node would result in the death of that little army of yours, we have done countless tests (via shift u to add units to a battle replay to see how they fare) and it seems grom brave breaker and his 30 men can alone take out 60 agarthan light infantry with minimal loses, tests with various amounts of your crossbowmen with the light infantry have come to a similar conclusion, it just happens that atlantis is moving grom brave breaker onto that node just in case to intercept, also just in case we decided to invest in a little province defence.

i hope this pursuades you not to squander your soldiers, if you wasn't anyway then my apologies good sir, but if i should have to slaughter those 60 it will not end there...

have a nice day.

hmm do you reckon Mictlan staled?

we were waiting for them yesterday and usually when you are last to do your turn you'd be the first next turn beecause you're already ready to play, however it seems we are waiting on mictlan again, what a shame.

I don't think he's staled yet, its the weekend he could just be busy or having fun

Nikelaos · #**104** October 5th, 2008, 10:12 AM

true but the turn is staled is what i meant and that's not good early game, especially since i was going to attack mictlan which is probably why i found out about the stale, i was looking into every detail too see the way

licker · #**105** October 5th, 2008, 11:15 AM

You mean he staled turn 8?

How do you see this? I was under the impression that everyone had been getting in turns before the 24h limit.

However, if he is gone you are right, it is not good for the game balance this early.

Nikelaos · #**106** October 5th, 2008, 12:30 PM

i know he staled turn 8 because he was the last to finish his turn for turn 8 and still was last left for turn 9 though he should have been able to do it first

Well, I took that air node and no party for my army (Btw, I would evecute your spy as you are WAY off on the size of my army) If you want to call 3 Crossbowmen and 5 inf an army....If it was me, I WOULD bring that merc on down as I don't like that Particular Commander that is running my 'Army' anyway!!

ON a more serious note...I see TWO nodes on the right that have flags over them. I just took 1 node and nothing, No gems, no movement opportunities, no ownership. In the meantime I get threatened (no problem with that by the way) because Atlantis can see my army in the node (even though his estimate is wrong). I feel like I am wayyyyyyyyyy behind in the understanding of this map (and its my own fault I suppose for joining something I don't understand).

Someone please explain this in language a dummy (me) can understand or I will have to pass on trying to play this out.

Thanks!!!

If I can't seem to get a handle and understand (pardon my stupidity please) these nodes I am afraid I will have to

Nikelaos · #**108** October 5th, 2008, 03:23 PM

sorry for the threat, you just can't be too careful these days, also i think we may be talking about different alters/nodes.

you definately had a decent sized army on an alter (not node), and i could see it from my air node which was undefended at the time which is why i panicked a bit. And you didn't take my air node? you sure you aren't thinking about the astral node or something which i don't own?

anyway in regards to you're serious note you seem like you've confused something to be a node but i'm not sure what or how, can you tell me the province number of the node?

licker · #**109** October 5th, 2008, 08:01 PM

The nodes are the areas on the right of the map, the alters or portals, or whatever are the icons on the 'main' map.

You took an air (I assume) portal, which allows you to move to the node, not the node itself, otherwise I assume Atlantis would be fairly pissed off

Nikelaos · #**110** October 6th, 2008, 11:43 AM

if it was the node itself atlantis would be spamming sea trolls and wights right now.

EDIT: seems i was right, Mictlan has gone AI, think now is the time for attack, spamming of sea trolls and wights will start next turn, already sent my turn grrrr.
