Looks like we'll need a little patience again.

And it's up again. Not that much patience has been needed this time.

Also, quoting yourself is fun, makes you feel like you're having an important conversation.

It also makes true believers feel like you were Legion, for you are many

Must be some tough scripting going on.

Anyone else gets a feeling that we are playing at indies 9? [I know, it's 6]

[Numahr]

About half of the provinces receive special script regarding their indy garrisons. This is unrelated to the level for independants decided in the game settings (6 or 9). Mostly these provinces are those with VP but not only. When the map designer did not create a special script for a given province, then only the 6 level is applied to random indies.

What you are discovering is an old world with a life of its own, with entities unwilling to bend by the new God(s) trying to extend their Dominions...

Hmm, let's see, I seem to remember saying:

Seems I was right! (And also posses the powers of foresight and am in general even awesomer than I thought.)

still applies.

(Seriously though, so far I haven't fallen victim to any surprises, but I am looking forward to the clump of Air mages ready to orb lightning and shock wave me to death in an otherwise innocuous looking province.)

[Zeldor]

I know in which province those air mages are. Are you around? Wanna NAP? :P

Anyway, it should be fun game. Too bad we can't see huge army size drops on score graphs, they must be happening. And probably some people got stuck in their cap, scared of surrounding wilderness.

[Amhazair]

I think there are several of those air mage clumps, at least I seem to remember running into them a couple of times testing expansion. No idea if there are any close to my start location though.

[Amhazair]

Not feasable in any way. People have a daily schedule, you know, which for most of us involves at least sleaping, eating and going to work, which in my case leaves me with a daily ~5hr period between 19h00 and 24h00 in which to do my turn, and an absolute impossibility to play in the 19 hours in between. (on the average weekdays) Can't imagine the poor people with kids who have to wait till after putting them to bed to take their turns.

Edit: Hey! The post I replied to has magically disappeared! This might leave me looking slightly stupid.
