I don't have a problem with that. Other options would be to go with 48h QH or 24h fixed host.

Personally, I really love the fact that we are still cranking out 1+ turns per day, at such a late stage, but I think there does come a time when keeping up the pace is really going to put undo pressure on someone.

48 hour quickhost would be ok by me. I generally manage to do a turn a day, but they are quite complicated and it would be nice to have some margin for error

36 h Quickhost sounds good . Later we can maybe even stretch it to 48 hours

Soapy, could you live with 36h QH? That will still give you a margin of error, but still applies some pressure to keep the turns coming more frequently than every other day.

I will set to 36h QH (or if Soapy or others chime in, to 48), after this turn hosts.

Oh yeah sure, I am flexible.

36 qh is cool with me. Maybe we could do 48h on the weekends? I've staled twice in this game on weekends because of real life commitments (the Last time was not cool).

This game has been fun. I'm seeing all kinds of advanced units and tactics. I've read about some of them on the forum, but until you've been "wrathful skied" and had your army killed by basically one guy or had your army obliterated by a mass of false horrors, you really can't feel the pain. Instant death by ghost riders is fun too (insert smiley face here). There really is a lot to consider in this game.

I thought I had something when I read the Arouse Hunger description. I tried Arouse Hunger thinking it might turn some of his own troops into ghouls that would then attack his mages. Sort of like a distant charming. Of course, this is not the way it works. Gotta love my optimistic interpretation of the spell description.

Yeah I used to think thats what it did too...

However it does create 10 free ghouls in a remote province, so actually its a pretty useful spell anyway!

now set to 36h qh

Does anyone have any suggestions on killing off Blackhawks?

You know, you try and you try, and they just keep coming back. It's like abaondoning a puppy in the woods, no matter how far you go, they always seem to find their way home
