MP: Game,HoC - House of Chains. Corinthian wins!

[Jolly Roger]

So far I received all turns.
The last turn I sent was turn 6.
For uncertain reasons I didn´t receive turn 7, even after
using the resend option.

Very strange.

Thanks for you help,

Klaus

Anyway, whoever started in the south west or the south east corner better identify themselves now so that we can HATE YOU FOREVER!

That's some quick scouting there Cor! How the heck did you run into my neighbor before even I did, especially given his start position?

You of all people should know the power of Ermorian Theurgs, Executor! They can speak with the dead and have even developed an artifact known as the "Score Graph"! If you chant the right words and cross your eyes just so, it can reveal all manner of exotic information. (Hint: There is only one Fountain of Rubies on this map.)

Good luck with that Stegadon invasion you have going on there. That should be some bumfight. Normally I'd say that tramplers would have an advantage vs heavy infantry. But just about every troop type that Itza got is coldblooded and the dwarves like their dominion cold. Also we are heading for winter. The dwarves should have problem invading Itza and Itza should have problems invading the dwarves. But they must fight. THEY MUST!

As for how I knew the two of were there, I will give you another hint: (Look closely at your capitol. You have a very special capitol.)

Bah, We lizards have no quarrel with our Dwarven neighbors. It's all hot and steamy up here and one thing we know dwarves aren't, is hot and steamy! And Dwarves don't taste good either. We will stay in our swamps if they stay in their caverns.

Hmmm. I disregarded crowns as capitals as they made no sense. One half of the map seems to be practically inhabited by only two nations. WL, you seriously need to start paying attention to this in larger games. It's no fun getting in turn 6 wars all the time.

Well on the upside we the dwarfs are not in war with Itza if you're curious, and I'm really glad I used the expansion strategy that I did.
On the downside I am facing tramplers and it seems like you're my second neighbor, eh?

We are peaceful lizards. We just want to bathe in the sun all day and eat small pigs smothered in tobasco sauce.

I second the point about the starting positions though. Pretty crowded up here.

Well, the issue was raised before the game started by Corinthian. If I were a capable cartographer I'd have set fixed start points. Seeing as I'm not and none stepped up or even commented on this we went ahead w/ what is.

For the record I met first nation on turn 5 (IIRC).

[Executor]

Hmph! God damn you Jolly Roger...

WL, like I said after YARG, feel free to PM me with such requests. I could have done it here had I paid attention of the thread. It's a relatively quick job.

[WraithLord]

Oh, I took into account your generous offer for YARG5. I didn't want to ask you another time.
Next time, I will

Thank you!

[Jolly Roger]

Executor.

Please let me know, why you condemned me ?
Don´t use gods name for such issues.

Regards, Klaus
