Erika the Red, Goddess of Helheim, hereby declares a holy crusade against the foul woodland beasts of Pangaea. The necrophilic halfmen believe that their flimsy vine constructs and hordes of scantily unclad females pose a threat to our glamourous Helhirdings of glamour, and unjustly declared war on our peaceloving nation. Therefore I request that all nations respectfully stay out of our war; unless they wish to scavenge off the soon-to-be-Carrioned Woods of Pangaea.

On an unrelated note, the great nation of Helheim also is auctioning off two, you heard me, TWO dwarven hammers! These rare and precious artifacts are selling like Seraphs on "discounted wish" day, and as a result, there is a strict limit of one per caller. All forms of currency is acceptable, whether in magic items, magic gems, blood slaves, and gold. The Svartalfs are unwilling to make anymore for export, and as a result, these fine and valuable beauties are going to the highest bidder. Send your messangers now and make your offers. Value is determined as such:
magic items>magic gems (of which death and earth are valued the least)>blood slave>gold (approximately 50 gold is worth one gem). Hurry, supplies are limited. CALL NOW!

Caelum and Maverni players apparently dropped.

Such a shame. You'd think they could at least say something so we could try to find a sub?

Well Marvernis position is pretty much down the crapper, but on the other hand it shouldn't take that long to prolong the agony of his attacker

Speaking of which I'm several turns from being eliminated by qio. I had long term plans that got ran over by mounted hirdmen. *sniff*

The war between Pangaea and Helheim is getting interesting. He slaughtered 30 of my Helhirds last turn (I shouldn't have split my army up, it seems

), I've lost a raiding party to a lucky berserk minotaur strike (my Helkarl!), and he's making me chase one of his sub-armies around with my huskarls and hirdmen. On the other hand, I've set up anti-undead weapon production and reached some critical research goals.

This is going to take awhile.

On another note, I'm going to be unavailable from Thursday to Sunday (JHUMUNC). I can submit a turn on Thursday (morning), and send one in later on Sunday (evening), so if the turns were delayed to 48 hrs no quickhost for those few days, I won't need a sub.

licker · #88 February 28th, 2009, 11:59 PM

I'm all for a pause to allow Tolkein to deal with his situation.

pyg · #89 March 1st, 2009, 09:41 AM

Sure. Are people ready for longer turns now in addition? I could switch to 48 hour turns now and just leave it. I will soon be eliminated although I think I can continue admin of the game.

licker · #90 March 1st, 2009, 10:18 PM

I wouldn't mind a switch to 48h honestly.
