MP: Power Beyond Comprehension aka "My power is still raising!" newbie game - Running

[Jolly Roger]

Gentlemen,

did I miss something. I´ve already offered to join in as replacement player. Would prefer to play Abysia, but be happy with Arco too.

I´d returned a PM confirming my intention too.

Cheers, Klaus

However, people SHOULD play the game out unless they have real life reasons not to. To walk away from a game in which you still have a part to play is pathetic. I KNOW there are players here who will continue to play as long as they have a chance of winning and drop out as soon as things go sour, despite their empire being strong enough to influence the game.

By "here" I meant on the forums...... not those left if this particular game.

Dear friends,

I´m taking over for Arco. My real name is Klaus, I´m a MD from Germany. Not an experienced Dom3 player, but a semi-professional chess player and very experienced wargamer.
So better you drop me a mail in case we are at good relations..

However, have fun and enjoy the game.

Good luck,

Jolly Roger, King of Arco

My greatest fear was that you wouldn't sign a NAP3 and would swarm me early on before I got the chance to research Earthquake, esp. since you have better scales and the resultant income. (I have about your income with twice the provinces.) Also you're the all-powerful R'lyeh while I'm the measly Atlantis. I tried some early war scenarios before we started play, and they were generally highly unfavorable to me.

Why did you let me research Earthquake? I gather that Shark Attack was the research goal you were waiting for, but I don't think that tops Earthquake, which is easier to get, and annihilates your best troops...

Welcome, Jolly Roger :-)

Very pleased to have you in the game. Dom3 is a lot of fun, and quite addictive (it has a very steep learning curve) so hopefully this is the start of many games to come with you.

Wow, Pangaea has lots of troops. I guess someone took some disorder scales? Good luck feeding all that chaff!

The chaff eats other chaff. It is like a perpetual motion machine, only with each iteration the act of eating chaff somehow introduces additional energy into the system resulting in exponential growth in the amount of chaff running around.

MA Ermor vs EA Pan would be awesome - chaff everywhere!

You can throw the pass to me, I can act as a sub admin when situation arises.

Hey all,

I've taken control of Abysia. I'll do my best to honor all existing treaties and trade agreements, provided that they remain within our best national interests. I heartily encourage anyone we've had dealings with in the past to re-open any dialogues that may have been previously discarded, and also invite anyone we haven't met to take advantage of this opportunity to establish an ambassadorship in Abysia.

Although our nation has had some very public failings in recent months, I want to assure our allies that these were due to errors in policy and judgment by the administration of my predecessor, and NOT through any systemic weakness of our country or our people. I have already instituted sweeping economic reform, as well as instituting a new military training program and replacing senior officials with some whose tactics are (significantly) better-suited to winning today's wars.

Our present may be the smoldering embers of our recent past, but our future burns brightly.
