In fact he clearly *received* at least 3 rune smashers (probably from Ermor). Just to make your remark more comlete, I don't argue that the situation with hammers and gems was pretty interesting.

Dunno about the lack of items, but he received the rune smashers from me (shinu) waaaay back before the inital assault on Jotun began.

I can't add much to what Hoplo has said, there were wheels within wheels, but IMHO any possibility of withstanding Ermor went out the window due to the global defense Ex put up--I was just brutaized by it.

I'm fine with whatever folks decide.

[Hoplosternum]

Well R'lyeh had just lost a large force within Jotun's lands. In that battle he lost a lot of commanders. It is possible that many were equipped thugs and mages and that is where most of his items went.

I can confirm that no items were sent to his other ally at the time - Mictlan

Shin would surely be a more likely provider of Rune Smashers as he can build them from his main mage???

[PriestyMan]

executor was on IRC at the time and was just as suprised as the rest of us. he at least didnt mention that

[WraithLord]

Wow. So much went on when I was out partying.
It's late night here so I'll try to briefly address some of the comments made.

Calahan & Dimaz, I had similar thoughts but this was born of complex and somewhat rare (at least for me) circumstances. I think Hoplosternum has articulated this well though there probably is more to the story.

PriestyMan, I don't recall R'lyeh sending me anything, let alone hammers and if he had sent something he got something of similar value in return. I've no idea why he had no items, maybe he had no E forgers, maybe he had a strange strat. Sorry but I wasn't the recipient of or in any way involved in that
Certainly not kissing them squiggly monsters behinds
Oh, and Dimaz, rune smashers weren't my dpt until recently so he can't have gotten them from me.

I fought hard most of the game. Not as much as Exec but neither have I been idle on the battlefield. I have spent time and effort to engage in diplomacy which (as it turns out) is a part of the game I really like and having played so many RANDs lately forgot how fun it can be.

I will of course abide by whatever the fellow players prefer. Cont. the game or cede it. I'm good with both, though I must say that I tend to agree with Calahan, Dimaz and Hoplo.

[WraithLord]

ok. I checked my game logs (good thing I keep them ). I did make one deal with R'lyeh on turn 46. He has sent me 60N in return for 12 bags of wine.

[PriestyMan]

well that is funny. dozens of hammers but no items. he could forge his own hammers too iirc, so its not like he bought them from someone

[LoloMo]

I vote to give Ermor the win.

Jotun gave ermor the win by putting up BoT. We had to destroy Jotun when he did that. Of course we planned to fight ermor after that, but the long war against Jotun and his BoT and AC sapped whatever resources we had left to fight Ermor with.

Of course if we aren't agreed to a win yet, I will continue on fighting!

[LoloMo]

AC was up, so maybe he decided to stop forging for fear of getting attacked by horrors.

[Dimaz]

Rlyeh had E3 mage so probably he forged the hammers himself. The question is, where all the other gems went. Anyway I vote for finishing too.
