Open message to the stinking lizards of C'tis:
How dare you invade lands near the Holy Country of Ulm?
Such arrogance shall not be tolerated! Begone, lizards, or suffer!

Strike at us at your peril. We suggest you look in other directions for open provinces. An attack on our lands will merit swift and sure retaliation.

If you have something of value to offer, a trade might be possible, but we do not simply surrender that which we've justly claimed.

Provinces just next our capital are ours and that's not negotiable.

Its completely negotiable. You can be reasonable, or you can die.

I noticed Pythium's turn wasn't in a couple of minutes before hosting so I delayed hosting by 12 hours.

Thank you. I thought I got it in in time, but that may have just been through your help.

Well, this is unfortunate. No one is interested in peace. Oh well.

Partly this is the game settings: no need for site searching, little need for research and no globals to aim for certainly encourage early fighting (this is deliberate). The first version of this game actually encouraged early fights even more since there was no expansion phase or fort building (all preset).

The other thing is that Caelum and I are actually exceeding our combined allotment of provinces, making the northern and southern edges of the map even tighter.

Expansion was certainly diffferent than a normal game. While Blade Wind once again underwhelmed, Magma Eruption didn't disappoint. Always nice to soften up charging elephants with a couple of castings before they reach your skinshifters.

I have to go out of town and may not be back until saturday evening, could you delay if needed?

Valerius · #50 September 24th, 2010, 01:32 AM

Sure. If I see your turn isn't in as hosting approaches I'll add time to the clock.
