Why Kailasa, Bandar Log, and Patala NEVER WIN

I certainly wouldn't object to Lord Bob changing to Ulm.

I can't believe this thread is already up to 9 pages...

Of all the things to complain about someone picks PD?

Hah, I know why you're getting nervous... Lord_bob has the set goal of getting more posts than your Perpetuality thread - in half the time! Be afraid, be very afraid...

Lord Bob,
If it bothers you so much, why not just mod the game to give them better PD? Its only a few lines in notepad. (or text editor of your choice)

Fine. Since some people want to be smart-aleks without thinking, I'll take MA Ulm.

At least I won't have to think to much while I beat you.

Won't really raid to much, but heh, whatever.

Game on!

MA Ulm vs MA Bandar Log, the showdown.

Keep us updated...be like a little AAR.

I can play the monkey side against ulm, I have time right now in fact...

Lord_Bob · #8 November 7th, 2007, 04:39 PM

Send me the connection information, and map, and I can play tommorrow at around this time, or earlier.

I have time too!

But I think Bob wants to play tomorrow.

Ulm will die - crushed by my furry might.

In general, I think raiding is annoying, and that PD should be better. This is especially true for monkeys and giants.

There are a few game-balance points to consider, however:
* There are a few spells that are *only* useful for raiding, and call of the winds is *supposed* to be used for raiding. Making PD better makes these spells worse, and they are not hugeley competitive at present.

* There are several nations that depend on raiding to be competitive at certain stages of the game. Caelum, obviously, and the now-nerfed *heims.

So if I make a stronger/balanced PD mod, it should also compensate for those changes (cue: swallowed a cat, to catch the fly....)
