Yeah I was pretty sure I would be dead this turn, haven't checked yet.

Argh! I had meant to fling all three of those murdering winters at that Sauromatian army (the damage stacks). Ah well, I got a bunch of Agarthans, and I probably would've lost that fight anyway.

So - I can't fight all four of you at once. Specifically, I need either - Sauromatia *and* Agartha to back off, or for Sauromatia *or* Agartha to switch sides and ally with me. So, here's the deal - if one or the other of you will break your current alliance and ally with me, I will direct my eight remaining murdering winters at the other, just for starters.

If neither Agartha or Sauromatia will agree to ally with me, I will split the murdering winters 50:50 (and manage them a bit better, to boot) and give all of my remaining magic items and gems to Caelum. For those keeping score at home - that's 307A, 55E, 153S, 177D, 39N and 258B, twenty skull mentors, some nature and earth boost items, and that thug equipment on my eastern cadre of niefel giants.

Ermor, Vanheim and Caelum - whom I wish to crush completely - need not apply.

For the record, although it is to your advantage to ally against a stronger foe, it is also to your advantage to jockey with position among yourselves, and to try and get one of the other players to take the brunt of my counterattack. Your lack of cowardice disgusts me.

I salute Ermor for his judicious betrayal and will deal with him with the respect he deserves

Your friend,
Knife Bright Insight,
Lord of the Jotuns.

, Very Clever.

Of course, I would offer to evenly split these goodies up among all players who have joined the battle to vanquish the foul giants.

And only a pitiful race would lament the lack of cowardice.

Glory and Honour to the end!

The niefel income/province curv is funny indeed, keep up the good work =)

Sauromatia will stand by its brave allies, and will not be turned aside by the weaseling entreaties of the heartless frost giants. Long live the alliance!

Can we please give Agartha the boot? Out of the past, maybe, ten turns they've moved twice.

Cerlin, are you having difficulty taking your turns? Do you want us to ask Gandalf to slow down the timer, or maybe find a sub? It'd be criminal to set you to AI, as you're in a powerful position.

Someone should at least PM him before we AI him. Personally, i think a player who's sometimes there and sometimes not is a more dangerous opponent than the lame AI.

UninspiredName, that's a great exageration. He's missed maybe 2 turns out of the past dozen.

I would also be willing to accept slower turns, although mine are, at the moment, quite quick.

UninspiredName · #10 January 31st, 2007, 12:08 AM

It was definitely more than two turns. He missed the last two at least, (Three if I recall right) took two, and missed at least four before that.

I was probably exaggerating, but not very much I think. I also didn't know Agartha was in great power, (Score graphs are my friend, I guess) so I'm now fine with leaving him be. Sorry about that...
