Ascendant - Game On!

[Frumious]

So, if R'lyeh and Atlantis team up to keep all us land nations out of the oceans, should us land nations decide to keep R'lyeh and Atlantis from taking a single land province? Who loses more, there? Not us.

Fat chance on getting all 13 or 15 or however many land based nations to all work together on that

It appears Sauromatia already has an astral income. Thanks for showing me our armies, Reno.

What star children do you speak of? Remember, at this point R'lyeh proper is still falling from the sky. Aboleths rule the seas, and a giant shard of flaming gas hasn't squashed them yet.

...why you gotta ruin my fun like that? I meant it in a metaphorical sense anyhow ;P

[Darkwind]

Aboleths aren't star children, even metaphorically. They're not into rad new crazes like mind-altering drugs or bowing down to the might of Yoth'Shothogg (They've been doing that for millenia). They haven't introduced any new concepts to the world(since they're, you know, about as old as the world), or, well, anything that "star children" might do. Other than conquering the planet and enslaving the lesser races, of course.

Christians say the Earth is 5000 years old, scientists say 3.5-4.5 billion years. Let's split the difference and call it 1.75 billion years old.

Yoth'Shothogg is only a spry 3850!

Then again, the land of Ascendant could be anywhere from 5000 (and everyone older than that migrated here) to an infinite amount of years old.

Ok I'm stopping now. Please let's not continue this topic as it's probably too geeky even for Dominions forums.

[Darkwind]

I never said my pretender was as old as Ascendant, nor any of the individual Aboleths. Only the Aboleth race as a whole.

By the way, Reno, why is your pretender right next to one of my provinces? I still don't get it.

Vooosh!
