MP: "Relaxed Pace" Late Age Game

[wonderloss]

I managed to miss most of the recent posts. I will postpone and try to find a sub.

[wonderloss]

Are you still in this kama? If so, have you updated your copy of CBM 1.6 since the patch? The most recent version is linked in the initial post here.

You might have to PM him, it doesn't sound like he's going to read this thread again.

[wonderloss]

He got his turn in yesterday, which is why I thought he might still be in this, so we will see. I sent him a PM.
If he is running the old version of CBM 1.6, that would make a huge difference in combat replays, since some units end up with double attacks.

[wonderloss]

He will finish the game.

Okay, I think I owe everyone here an apology. I was indeed running an obsolete version of CBM 1.6. I considered that improbable, because I am using several computers with different OSs (Windows and Linux), but then I remembered I just installed the same version on all of them.

As wonderloss correctly stated, the problem was indeed in double attacks, specifically my Samurai Cavalry had listed "Katana, Katana, Hoof" instead of "Lance, Katana, Hoof". I thought the two attacks are correct as a compensation for higher cost of that unit, and that's why I went crazy hiring them. Naturally, I was disappointed to see my investment not paying off - I thought my version is the correct, and yours broken. Obviously, the lance counts only on the first impact, but the two katana strikes would make the unit a killer.

Even today, when I looked at the last replay, I saw my cav massacre everything and even slay the Mictlan God, while in the correct replay I saw just now, I saw that the Rain God narrowly escaped.

With that resolved, I think I will last to the end, whatever it may be (though I presume it will end up with Rylegh victory, with the map being all that nicely custom-made and conveniently water-centric, hehe).

So, with that after us, how about some diplomacy? What about everyone against Rylegh? ;-) I think he is the biggest threat anyhow, and he will pick us one by one while we fight.

P.S.: Sorry for not replying, I was indeed not reading this thread. I got very angry, because I came to a conclussion that my justified complaint is being ignored. I have a policy not to read/write anything when angry, because it quickly comes down to insults and personal attacks, and nothing good ever comes out of that.

That's not my pretender, he's a recruitable mage.

I appreciate people who admit having made a mistake and apologize. Its sad how few people do those things in the net.

Well, since R'lyeh is all around me, I see things exactly like you. I desperately try to maintain my Dominion and live in constant fear of being attacked broadside by hordes of chaff. The problem is I don't see any means to strike back into the water. I don't want a war with anyone else, but even so I don't see a chance to stand my ground 1on1 against R'lyeh. So my strategy for the moment is build up and wait. I don't think I could be in an offensive alliance aginst R'lyeh.

Oh man, I wish there were much more people with this policy around the net!

[Kamamura]

Olm - you can't imagine how difficult for us cholerics is to control our temper. Sometimes, I just have to repeat to myself "sit down, don't say anything, don't write anything, just wait to calm down."

BTW You see it similarly about the lurking menace of our slime-covered watery neighbor? Great! I think the dominion will be really hard to prevent from spreading madness.

Therefore, I am founding the League of Sanity Defenders (LSD) to prevent our world. Anyone willing to join is welcome! (Maybe except Rylegh). As we are currently incapable of launching an underwater invasion, I propose on establishing a no-fly zone over the Rylegh-infested ponds and lakes.

Ha!
