I can play the monkey side against ulm, I have time right now in fact...

I have time too!

But I think Bob wants to play tomorrow.

Ulm will die - crushed by my furry might.

No relation at all!

I only have 1 posting name.

In general, I think raiding is annoying, and that PD should be better. This is especially true for monkeys and giants.

There are a few game-balance points to consider, however:
* There are a few spells that are *only* useful for raiding, and call of the winds is *supposed* to be used for raiding. Making PD better makes these spells worse, and they are not hugeley competitive at present.

One point of monkey PD is already enough to beat off a Call of Winds . (Had this happen in Perpetuality, where my 5 gold investment beat off five provinces worth of CoW castings).

I think several of us have all agreed to fight Lord_Bob. Being as I appear to be coming down with a fever I think I will step down. However, if the others (Shovah32? someone else?) can't play then I will take the reins - this game has to be fought!

Homer and myself have both agreed. I personally feel that Homer would do better than I would, but I want to do this

So I don't have to hurt my head calculating time zones, how many hours from now do you want to start? 14-20 hours from the time I posted this is a good range for me.

Really, I think we should have petitioned QM or the like to play the monkeys.

To clarify the OP's viewpoint, is it that bad PD makes ANY nation too weak, or just an already below-average nation? If we gave, say, Kailasa recruitable devatas, would they still be woefully underpowered?

If yes, then... err...
If no, then the OP argument goes out the window, since clearly balance CAN exist without PD...

Actually, I had to restrain myself from volunteering, I really don't have time until the weekend.

On another low morale furry PD subject. Have you looked at Sombre's Skaven mod ???

WELL NOW IS YOUR CHANCE

I have signed up for one of llamabeast's games, "Marmoset", not knowing I was to be out of the city for the weekend and need a sub.

The game has just begun and we are on turn three. It features one of Sombre's fine mod efforts, the Skaven, TO BE PLAYED BY YOU (for at least 3 or 4 turns of furry low morale PD action).

It has the added attraction of two further mod nations (Agra Dis and Ulm Reborn) on a modded map - the main mod is delivered in a single package prepared by llamabeast. It is easily installed and equally easily removed (Marmoset's game thread has instructions for this).

Please PM me if you are interested. Thanks.

We now return to regular programming .....

Yeah, go ahead and play shovah if you want it so badly
