family vs family, the rematch

On another note, please let me know if you would like to get the archive of all the turns in the 2vs2 (it should be rather small, so I should be able to upload it in this thread).

I am not sure how this would work. By having the turn files, can anybody view the whole game from all 4 sides even without the fatherland file? If so, than that would be a great idea.

Well, hosting a 2vs2 game doesn't take a lot of time (two minutes per turn, if that much), so I can host the next game.

Yes, everybody can view all the turns without having the fatherland file (and view the orders given as well). The fatherland file only allows to host a turn, recreating the turn files if needed.

Ugh. I *might* be able to set it up so that my scripted bot automatically validates your trn files with my cd key, or something, but I'm not sure what that would entail.

Alneyan: Thanks a lot!

Okay, I guess I'm ready to send my Pretender file to Alneyan then. :-)

Um, I am not ready to upload anything! These squids are a very strange race. I have never really looked at them before yesterday. And how the heck do I kill those nasty tritons? They just instantly fly over (almost before the screen comes up) and WHAM - Fried Squid! And facing 80+ of them nasty tritons is not unusual at all. It seems the only way I can reliably keep my pretender alive is to take an immobile...

Now, why did I pick R'lyeh anyway???

Has Arc decided on a race yet? I suppose if I was serious about this, his choice of race ought to influence my pretender design. Which it will, but only if he chooses Atlantis, I think. Otherwise, I dunno what to do!

Tauren is out of town until late Tuesday night anyway.

[Alneyan]

You will probably want some fodder for those tritons, and hope said fodder lasts long enough for the squids to deal some punishment. The same goes true for Atlantis, so at least you will not be the only one having trouble with the Tritons.

If regular tritons aren't bad enough for you, there are always the Amber Clan Tritons, with a better armour and mage support. They are very uncommon fortunately, but that doesn't help when you do face them.

Otherwise... Well, I am no fond of atlantic nations. Does it show?

Didn't Bruce Geryk in his Tom vs Bruce Dominions article say that anything with the girlish name of "Amber" must be very easy to kill???
