I'm fine with that.

I see nothing strange with that, it was supposed to be a late-game oriented game from the beginning and everybody knows that late game turns are a bit cumbersome

I really don't see why Marverni is so confident... I would say you are marginally ahead of me or Niefelheim, but certainly not at the point where we couldn't win (and that is without a trump card). You aren't able to hold conquered territory and I haven't even committed the bulk of my researching mages (who are reasonably competent battle mages), tartarians, immortal death summons, thugs (who are also still researching)or blood supercombatants. Call these a trump card or not, quantity has a quality all its own, and Niefelheim has no small amount of territory to attack from either.

This all being said, 5 days is acceptable, although with that long of a hosting interval I will have to find a sub or ask for a month long hiatus starting from 7 February to 10 March (work is sending me to where there is no internet).

Don't think I have commited my research mages. They just had a long holiday.

Still, I don't know if I can fight you and Niefelheim at once but I can try.

I'm fine with a break until March, I'd even be in favor of starting it now rather than trying to squeeze in the turns between learning. One or two hours per day doesn't sound to bad but it is bad for my concentration even if I don't play.

Ok, Ulm seems to be gone already, I'll send him a PM.
If he doesn't reply we'd have to look for a sub.

On the other hand I didn't play my turn myself and I'd be really glad for a time out.
So, is everyone ok with freezing the game now until mid-march?

lwarmonger · #**286** January 24th, 2009, 05:49 PM

Sure.

Mithras · #**287** January 24th, 2009, 07:15 PM

It wont do any harm.

MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE

I've received a mail from llamaserver:

"The game Principe appears to have been abandoned, since it has had no activity in 4 weeks. If it remains inactive it will be removed from the server in a further 4 weeks. If the game is indeed over, please ask your game admin to declare it finished. Otherwise, you can keep the game alive just by sending in a 2h file (even if it is just a 'revised' copy of one you have already sent in)."

If you're still interested in the game, and I hope you are

it would be nice if someone could take care of it before the time limit. No need to hurry of course, there's still a month.

Mithras · #**289** February 21st, 2009, 07:16 PM

I'm still interested and in a couple of weeks I'll resend the turn just to make sure. Hopefull llamaserver will be kind enough to remind me that I need to do so.

Illuminated One · #**290** February 26th, 2009, 02:30 PM

I've played my turn, so it shouldn't be any problem until lwarmonger returns.

Sorry for dropping out so suddenly btw, but I had underestimated the work I had.

In game: Did anyone receive a message that he feeble minded an astral mage?
The reason is one of my forgers (well, I'm pretty sure it was a forger) got feeble minded by a hostile mage, which strikes me as odd.
