I am not sure but I think Drool staled Last turn because I checked when it was at two hours before hosting and Drool still had not taken the turn.

He did stale Last turn, I was up when it was hosting and doing the countdown and he never did the turn. I had sent him a pm earlier but he didnt read it in time bec he just read the pms today. There are 7 hours left so thats 7am my time but for drool that would be 3pm so he should be ok in doing his turn i hope before it hosts.

Also Luke I know you and your brother use the same computer I think but seem to have very different schedules. I notice he always does his turns really late at night or really early in morning(depends what your time zone is).

I think the stale with drool he may have just forgot that he didn't do his turn because he did his turn in the other game that a lot of us here have with him.

Tien Chi (Drool) staled the past two nights. Drool I am just inquiring if everything is ok because it would be unfortunate to see you stale more. Just let us know if everything is ok or maybe you perhaps just forgot.

AHHHH

my stupid SC got killed because my cheap army retreated into the water rather then get back on the boat that brough them there!

I originally thought grabing a costal province that didn't connected to my other provinces except by boat would be a good idea, cos if it got taken my an enemy, they wouldn't normally be able to continue their raid on my other provinces. But without knowing what I was fighting, I didn't script my pretender's spells properly, and he kept casting Blade Wind instead of Thunder Strike.. when my troops finally got charged by the heavy cavalry, they all rooted and everyone died in a horrible death as they tried to swim home.

But they had a boat to carry them all home! Why didn't they sail? (its not like the enemy burnt my boats before the battle, or does losing as battle mean they no longer have access to their boats?!!)

mind you, that was my Pretender

ah man thats a real bad start

the only thing i guess is to hope for no close neighbors and if you run into someone hopefully they are peaceful

plus he was flying too.. just doesn't make any sense, he should have made it back to a friendly provence even if the troops wheren't able too.

i guess the lesson here is just simply NOT to lose any battles, cos retreating is obviously not always predictable. What was the line from the Art of War: 'only fight when the battle is already won'?.. yeah..

anyways, Panther's my closest neighbour.. you won't hit a cripple would you? that's like hitting someone in a wheelchair! its just meeean!
