Regeneration and Recuperation really decrease chance for getting afflictions, so not so strange.

The most probable explanation for that weirdness is that famous battle repeat bug. But I am still curious what is exact chance to get past 29MR. Heh, in 2 turns you will meet here again anyway

Eriu is going AI the current turn and Zeldor has asked me to take over Atlantis as he signed up as a temp sub and Shard is still MIA. Does anyone object?

Though it will not be in my interest to have a player that has already weathered a war with me and knows my tactics take over Atlantis, it likely would not take a new player of high skill long to figure it out in any event. And you have unique knowledge of the provinces you once owned as Eriu.

But, as game admin. I am very liberal in honoring a player's wish with respect to a sub. So as long as you are not looking at the turn file for both nations at the same time, it is within Zeldor's broad latitude to ask you to sub for him.

Should Shard return, however, Atlantis is still his race to play I think. Though I have never faced the situation of the owner of the race taking such a long break from the game, then taking it back. But Evilhomer took the summer off in the Big Game and reclaimed LA Ryleh, so I think I would follow Velusion's lead should Shard return and want Atlantis back.

With that stipulation, once Eriu is set to ai, pm me your email address and I will have Atlantis' future turns sent to you.

*there were a couple of objections about Dr. P taking over a race after he was eliminated in EH I, as they said he would carry a grudge. I overruled those because subs are not easy to find, and the player getting the sub likely knew what grudges the sub may or may not have. So I am being consistent with the first game.

Xietor:

I had to sub for around 2 weeks and it is over a month. I have checked my PMs, it seems I took over 8th March. And I got less time now [and I would need couple postpones within a month, trip to Hua Shan next week, Shandong province in 2nd week of May etc]. And the most important thing - I really don't like Atlantis As I don't like Man, but here turns require a lot of time.

And I wouldn't worry about Atlantis attacking you. Ermor is really not interested in stopping the war. And I would be surprised if that war could be finished in less than 20 turns [it can rather go on forever].

Sight unseen the gauntlet has been thrown down and the new king picks it up. Doom comes for you necrophiles, both North and South. The guard has been changed and Atlantean pride surges once again like the tide. Cyclic. Eternal. Implacable.

np Zeldor. I thank you for playing and being such a good sub. It is not your job to make my life easier, but to safeguard Atlantis in the event of Shard's return.

And I must say you would be hard pressed to find a better player for Atlantis than Baalz. So you not only subbed quite well, but turned the race over to one of the better Dom III players. So you did a great job, and I thank you again.

I have had the dubious distinction of fighting baalz as Atlantis before, and it does not bring back fond memories- to put it mildly.
