I'm guessing these are the pre update Ogres too. Well done to their commander!

Did you make them even more powerful? I know they have expansion problems, with the blood sacrifice and no cheap blood mages, but I had their perfect counter: etherial troops when the Ogres have no units with magic weapons and limited attack spells, and we fought more-or-less to a standstill.

That said, statttis has been playing them really well.

But that isn't the main reason for this post. I'm going out of town this weekend and will not have Internet access Saturday or Sunday. I should be able to get in any turns that are ready on Friday (Aug. 21st), but if it's not in by 22:00 GMT, it's not coming. After that, if the next turn could be pushed back to Monday (the 24th) at about the same time (22:00 GMT) I should be fine.

Thanks and sorry, everyone.

Yep, these are the pre-update ogres. I've not felt brave enough to try and incorporate the update into our game, especially after another game with the ogres in it had issues because someone did that.

In the last update, ogres gained: Stationary h3 blood sacrificers, a spell to turn slaughtermasters into thugs for 13 or so blood slaves, and some magic diversity summons. Also I believe ogre recruitables had their prices decreased. So it was a fairly decent update for them.

Also, I am sure your schedule can be accommodated vanishag.

Well, I guess I can give up my illusions about people reading my posts (see below).

It's my fault, really. I should have PM'ed rdonj as well as posting.

Oh damn. A few days ago I had this niggling feeling in the back of my head that I was supposed to be doing something for one of the games I'm admining. So I went to check my PMs and was relieved when I didn't find anything. I am somewhat forgetful so it's a good idea if you need something done at a specific time, remind me when it comes time to do it or I may forget, ESPECIALLY if I haven't gotten a pm.

Yeah, it was sloppy/newb-ish of me not to PM you. I'll do better the next time something comes up. Anyway, I'm back, and nothing devastating happened to Alchera while I was gone, so it's no biggie.

It's my fault too, and I feel bad about it. You DID say you were going to be gone. I need to start writing stuff down or something. I'm glad to hear that nothing too bad happened though.
