Alliance victory usually IS allowed, especially if it has a sense in the gaming.

An example : If one nation is attacked heavily , and another player comes to his rescue to stand side by side vs the aggressor sometime (especially if not esplicitally prevented in the game setup) those 2 nation if remain the only one standing in the end can decide to make it a draw beetween themselves (or worst case scenario be allied till the end and then fight it beetween their two )

As for the game it's a real shame it turned out to be not so pleasant in the end, i didnt get exactly what was the problem still if there is a general consensus to who is the winner we can stop it and maybe start a new one from scratch.

At the very least i hope u all enjoyed the experience (end excluded)

Please let me know if i have to stop the game!

OK. Im ready to end and declare Utgard winner.
He did a good game. I think that we had no option when we ganged Ermor and Rlieh.
It was a decent game but the map is not suited for MP I guess.

The same for me. I think that a part of the problem was the presence of nations like ermor and r'lyeh wich became frightening really fast. By browsing through the forum, I saw that some late age games are played without them.

A question to utgard though: was it you first MP game? ( please tell me no so I won't feel too stupid ).

Well, it was my first real MP game at least. But I've played against Folket on random small maps three times. The first time he underestimated me so I actually managed to win. I got beaten really bad the other times.

I think it has been a fun game and I've learned a lot. Holyfrog helped me a lot with advice and recourses, I wouldn’t be the most powerful without his help. It was the first time I played a blood nation and it was really fun but a little time consuming. Next I have to learn how to use communions. All my mages have either astral or blood so I guess I should have used them. My death/astral mages are on the way now. A couple of D3 Nornas with 16 slaves should be able to beat your undead I hope.

I have to agree that the map was unbalanced. It seems to be made more for thematic effect, not game play.

This was a scenario map and likely you're right, it may have been unbalanced (though in the end the favorites didnt win it seems!)

Unless someone says otherwhise i'll declare the game closed in 24 hours

Congratulations to all the players ^^

My presence in the forum has been a bit sparse in the last month, if there isnt enough games going on guess a new game will be starting within a week you're all welcome to join it!

Thanks to llamabeast that made the managing of the game so smooth, i actually didnt have to do anything except for the new year break =)
