Truthfully i never agreed to set Mictlan to AI. I was just going to take over T'ien Ch'i as a favor to those who didnt seem to want them set to AI. If general concensus is that I shouldn't be playing two nations, which is indeed reasonable, then I will set T'ien Ch'i to AI, and continue playing Mictlan.

ehh as tien chi is on the way out, it seems, which i wasn't quite aware of, I'm certainly happy to have whatever people say should happen, happen.

and, while its true tauren never explicitly said he would go AI, he never denied it either in response to my PM's to him.

if tien chi is on the way down this is rather moot, but it is still an important general principle, so whatever

Because T'ien Ch'i is probably going to die before Mictlan even(!), i didn't think it was a big deal. But i agree that it is an important general principle. I am prepared to set T'ien Ch'i to AI if people want me to, as i am loathe to give up Mictlan.

i dont care if tauren controls both since both nations are going to die anyway

but if he is required to turn one AI and wants to keep mictlan then we turn tien chi to AI and leave it at that

Gee, can _I_ control two nations for several turns too? That'd be neat, having the opportunity to send gems and gold back and forth, forge items with one nation for the other and all. And it's okay, as long as one of the nations is going to die, right? Ooops - _all_ nations but one eventually die. Guess it's okay to run any two nations?

Feh.

hmmm i'm sorry i brought this up now; personally, my preference would be to ignore it, given t'ien chi's situation. And given that I encouraged tauren to take over t'ien chi I feel somewhat responsible.

i guess t'ien chi should be turned over, since that is the correct thing to do. sorry tauren.

Default Whoops! ( Hard_Slog )


Sheesh - gotta love when your own summons are the only thing that kill your troops in a battle. Maybe I've gotten too used to false horrors, and wanted to try out one of them artifact spears.

Script : Lesser Horror, Lesser Horroer, Lesser Horror, etc.

And watch those lesser horrors start chewing up my own troops. 14 troops lost in a decent if not large war party, fighting PD 1 or 2. I suppose there is _some_ way of using that spear's spell, but it ain't in a regular melee.

( Probably a single mage using it, then retreating or better, casting a spell to get out. Possibly horror marking the enemy first, but from what I've seen, the horrors would ignore the horror marks until they were finished with the nearby 'friendly' food. )
