Hey, Ygorl's back! How was Europe? We oughta play some 1x1 so you'll get to clobber me to death. For once

Chances are this game will go on until dom3 is out, given our pace (which is perfect for me) and hairy situation

Ug.. having.. problems... taking turn. It's so much work, and I feel I'm going to lose anyway. It's hard trying to motivate myself to do it. I'll try to take it tomorrow, I hope I don't stale!

Turn up.

Upon seeing the next turn, I'm ready to surrender. I don't want to give up if either Boron or Pasha want to keep fighting, though.

Cunknown,
What was Jurri using that got you so blue? Big globs of Sc's? Mages? Or did you find it too difficult to opperate effectively beneath the sea against an underwater nation?

Jurri is attacking me all over with SCs, one in each province he's taking. Anything that's unforted is his, basically. Also, he is summoning massive numbers of angels, at least 1 group a turn, and they're slaughtering my tartarians, devils, etc.

At the moment, Jurri has easily twice my number of provinces (half the world, roughly), he has an obscene gem income, he's not hampered by the Astral Corruption like I thought he would be (whereas I am getting killed by it), he can't beat my armies, although he simply doesn't have to--he just avoids them and takes everything else in the world.

Going underwater isn't that difficult, I'm making progress there. But it's just the sheer # of provinces and commanders I'm losing every turn that has me down. If I have a chance, I have to be -gaining- ground at this stage of the game, not losing it. It's only going to get worse as my gem income (and gold income) decreases while his increases.

Basically, I can see that I have no chance, and I don't want to play out the 30 turns of pain just to watch my empire fall apart.

Now, if the world was united against Jurri, that's a different story, and we might indeed have a chance. I'm putting in my vote to quit, I just want to see how the others (Boron and Pasha) are feeling about our chances against Jurri (if we work together).
