Re: Tales From the Front: The Wrath of a Woman
Isimede, the Sibyl, divines this future for Set, leader of LA Ctis. Unlike the Astrologers, we do not rely on the stars. From whence our knowledge comes, none may know:
Set, God of the Desert, Head of a Beast, you will fall but shall rise again:
In one of your neighbors you must place your trust if you are to survive. If you do not another will destroy you, and this enemy cannot be defeated by LA Ctis alone.
Be very careful on how you rely on your Sauromancers in battle, as the passing ages have taken their toll. Fatigue makes cowards of us all, and death follows fatigue as surely as dark follows night.
When the Moon bleeds red, the time to act will have passed. If your ally is not in place, Set will meet his Doom, from which he will not rise.

Re: Tales From the Front: The Wrath of a Woman
The Glorious Nation of Kailasa has to make a sad announcement. The Nation of Hinnom has fallen and will soon be forgotten from the lands of Kingmaker.
Our Gurus have seen it in the Stars.
The Yavanas have shed a tear for them.
The Bandar are sharpening their swords.
The Atavi will shoot them in the back.
The Markata think that chariots are a sad excuse for an elephant.

Re: Tales From the Front: The Wrath of a Woman
My neighbors who made peace were right to do so. Those that did not-tremble!
On a positive note: having only one player on AI after 11 turns with 61 players is really a pretty amazing thing.

Re: Tales From the Front: The Wrath of a Woman
Wow. This is a really quiet mega-game. Hardly any boasters at all, hardly any calls for gem trades. It's eerily quiet.

Yap, yap yap - all night she spoke in flowery prose and her ballads of love confused Ormund, giving him a pounding headache. So when he grunted for the woman to be silent, she unleashed a series of bolts from the sky. Zap after zap, poor Ormund tried to dodge the uncannily accurate lightning, each bolt causing his warrior braids to stand upright in a smoky haze. He managed at last to strike the fey temptress down, but not before she stole his manhood (Battle Fright -5).
If you should meet Ormund, he will likely run away, but beware, every now and then if you talk too much it sets him off to morale 99. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon19.gif[/img]

Re: The Bank of Ulm is open!
coobe,
your sub needs to give send a pm to me so i can replace your email address with his email address.
I am sorry to hear that you have issues in your private life(: Good luck with them. Hope they are not too serious.
Thanks for playing.
Edit: If there is a current player, who has already lost his capital, or knows he is going to lose it(ie hopeless situation) that is interested in taking over midguard, who Coobe reports as not being a bad spot, let me know.
What would have to happen is Llamabeast would set your present race to ai, and you would take the present turn for midguard.

Re: The Bank of Ulm is open!
I would not give up hope on finding a temporary sub - 3-4 days is not very long. I would be happy to sub were I not already in the game (and, further, next to you), and it's fairly likely someone not in the game would be similarly happy to help.
