Re: Suricate - pbem LA newbie game - (OPEN)
I;m a bit confused about what you're talking about, but there are two issues about such things. (1) Retreating from battle doesn't end a battlefield enchantment, but dying does. I thought this had been fixed, though I'm not sure. (2) The spell Mists of Deception produces soldiers which prevent the battle from ending ad infinitum. Hence if one side casts both Wrathful Skies and Mists of Deception then retreats, the opposing side has to survive 50 rounds of lightning.

Re: Suricate - pbem LA newbie game - (OPEN)
A quick suggestion for the people at the very first game (or with very little turns played before)
The internal dominions3 message system does work but doesn't have an history of the messages sent and it takes some time to get an answer (2 turns usually..) so it is common practice to use the forum/Personal messages for diplomacy purpose!
For instance your declaration of wars, nap , alliance , trade offers , threats , ecc should all be carried out either in this thread (if u want it public) or wia PM (for private thing).
Though not mandatory it usually improve the game experience if the players engage in diplomacy/boasting/threats/whatever in the game thread

Hats of for Ulm's prophet
My province defence had just put his entire army on the run. They close in on the hochmeister prophet, getting ready to surround him. But then they take one good look at him and apparently decide that it's not worth risking it. The entire province defence deserts and run away into the woods. The hochmeister is left alone looking out over a field of corpses.
He never moved or fought in any melee. It seems he's such a mean bastard that he doesn't have to fight to defeat his enemies.

Re: Suricate - pbem LA newbie game - (OPEN)
How much Pd were there? I had for some stupid reason scripted my rangers to fire archers and there were nothing else than one jotun jarl to shoot. Hats off to the jarl too my rangers didnt hurt him a bit but luckily my prophet did with a well aimed smite.  . Was a close call that my prophet didnt die for casting smite too much. In the end there were no fatigue left for meelee.

Re: Suricate - pbem LA newbie game - (OPEN)
What happened to the turn? Seems like there was some kind of error.
The turn ended without warning and the status page and mail claims we are now on turn four. When I tried the turn file it was turn 15 as it should but a stale turn.

Re: Suricate - pbem LA newbie game - (OPEN)
"Dear all,
Sorry about the bizarre e-mail you'll just have had from the LlamaServer - please ignore it and don't bother opening the attached turn file, since it's meaningless. Unfortunately you'll have to send in any 2h files for the current turn all over again - sorry!
Somehow something went wrong while I was starting some new games. It was the same bizarre something that happened a few weeks ago in fact - I have to look into this carefully. Basically the file with all the game details got changed to how it was a few weeks ago - despite the fact that no backups of the file are kept! Bizarre.
If you see any bizarre behaviour (most probably old games being reincarnated or new games disappearing), please let me know. Admins - any changes you've made, e.g. to hosting intervals, will have been undone.
To reiterate, what most of you will have to do is just resend your 2h file for the current turn.
Thanks and sorry again,
llamabeast"
