Default Re: Standards - MA Game (running)

Great news that a sub has been found for Arco Just revised the Ashdod orders so as to cancel their planned annihilation, and sent the new Lord of Arco an offer of peace with a proposed return of several of their former provinces.

Never easy being a sub, and it's no fun at all (and IMHO a bit insulting) if it turns out the sub only came in to make a final hopeless last turn or two. Since that is probably the only thing the AI can actually do well Guess I'm also feeling a bit guilty for (probably) making Nozshand jump ship on us in the first place by attacking him.

Although maybe not that guilty since I know nobody likes being on the worse end of a losing war, but this is a war game after all, you can't expect to 'win every war', and in my opinion these 'being defeated' type of positions need to be played out until the last gasp, and not just abandoned or set to AI. As doing that just spoils the game for all the other players by making things far too easy and convenient for the player who's beating you. Ok, end of my mini-rant against non 'fight til the bitter end' players.
