You're not mistaken...

I read Psi's post too quickly. Looks like you get to face the elephants Psi!

well, it is adjacent.. Kinda just adjacent and separated by mountains...

In terms of game mechanics, no, it is not adjacent. A province can technically have neighbors anywhere on the map, as far as visual reckoning is concerned - and will take resources from any neighbors, and only neighbors.

This'll be the sole exception, the game is on 24h, but I didn't change the due time thinking that since everyone got their first turn in so fast that it would be the same turn around. Obviously that hasn't happened.

This is an interesting situation. Given that he's MA Ulm, and assuming that he's gone AWOL would you guys like me to try to find a sub?

By the time I got in and checked the server he would have already staled, assuming he didn't put in his turn, it's impossible to tell. I've put the forcehosting command in so when llama fixes the server the game will be on it's merry way once again.

So he's playing one of the weakest nations in an mp game with almost all the heavies and will no doubt be targeted, and he may have staled his 2nd turn and thus be behind in the expansion phase. It's a dire situation for any player.

If he is awol it might be just as good, and potentially quicker, to just set the nation to ai once the servers back up.

Actually, getting a sub sounds like a good idea. Ulm's got some very potent anti-sacreds when used well. Darkwind used them to absolutely decimate a sacred, flying army of helheims in Kingmaker, and I've had them used against me in aquarium, and they still made a mess of my first wave of eagle warriors
