If we want to continue because further troubleshooting of this issue is too troublesome, I will understand and make the best of what I have left. But while the current solution solves the crashing problem, it leaves me much worse off.
Yeah, to be honest I don't really have time for further troubleshooting. Again, I'm sorry. Not that it's my fault, but it's a real bummer when technical problems mess the "fairness" of a game up - particularly a newbie game!

I would support whatever Groundworm wants to do to fix this, including additional roll backs or sending gold or gems. Let me know if you have any ideas, Groundworm.
Maybe sending a few gems would be a reasonable way to resolve this.

Whatever, I highly suggest continuing with the next turn ASAP so the game doesn't lose momentum.

I had scripted my orders differently in the turns that crashed, so the orders never actually got put into place (I actually put the new orders in three different times- two for each of the crashed/staled turns, and once for the turn that didn't get processed on account of the rollback).

The difference in orders was, among other things, I scripted my fairy queen to cast fog warriors, which would have protected my troops from my own rain of stones- which was far more devastating than anything Pangaea did to me in that fight.

It doesn't matter. I was an unfortunate victim of circumstance. At least it happened to me in a game where I'm already losing, rather than one of the games I still have a chance in. We should carry on, there's nothing to be done here.

Again, llamabeast, thanks for your time and your help.

Are you sure that the cast orders were incorrect...

It's possible that one or more of your mages just decided to go off script, that has burned me bad twice so far this game.

Thanks for your understanding. It's just bad luck, but like you say at least it's in a game where things were already going badly (btw, nice job fighting it out until the end).

Ok everyone, let's proceed with the game. Don't forget to follow llamabeast's instructions about deleting your old .2h files and please ask if you have any questions. I'm going to add 24 hours to the hosting time so you have a full 72 hours from now to work on your turns.
