Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
What about Marignon / Patrick ???
He's the last one to do his turn the 4th or 5th time in a row, if he did his turns at all ...

Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
Yeah I noticed this as well. I just recieved a PM from patrick that he feels he is unable to keep up with the 24hr quickhost and wanted to be set to AI. I countered that since his nation isnt being actively crushed, we should find a replacement.
As far as replacing him: Why not use one of the players who is already on the way out of our current game? Machaka just lost what looks like a final battle and from what I am told Mictlan is besieged by a powerful force. Would either of you like to replace Marignon?
edit: And by the way from what my spies show, Marignon is far from a lost cause. Due to bad capital location picking by the computer, Mari still has some room to expand if they move quickly.

Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
WTF? For the love of god, this game is just trying to [censored] piss me off. I just had 2 very expensive mages set to retreat who 'died when retreating into enemy territory' when they clearly had a province to which to retreat. [censored] this.
After I fight Man's army, I think I will take over Marignon. It was actually my nation of choice, but he got to it before me.
Edit: Actually, on second thought, I dont want to take over Marignon.

Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
Tauren, did you lose any provinces adjacent to the province where the mages fled from in the same turn? As far as I know, no one has ever figured out when fleeing actually occurs. If it happens immediately after every battle then situations like this can occur. If it happens at the end of the combat phase tho, this would be a bug.

Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
The only thing out of the ordinary that happened was I killed a scout in my only adjacent province. Maybe they retreated, like, during the battle with the scout, but thought the scout owned it, or something weird like that.

Were they amphibians who had to go from water to land or vice versa?

Re: Rebalance Mod game starting, everyone welcome!
Nope.
However, the army that forced them into retreat was mercenaries who were on the last turn of their contract. Maybe that had something to do with it.
