Sorry for the missed turns. I really could not play those turns. Anyway, and as Aku said, I was completely defeated.

Good game Aku, for my little experience I didn't thought it was possible for Mictlan beat Abysia so early in the game when you don't have yet access to powerful summons. Maybe I underestimated Mictlan... or maybe it was just your good strategy

Good game to everybody.

Good game Tannath. And yeah if you did have control of your turns you wouldnt have been able to do anything while under siege and no mages to summon troops =[.

But basically I put spies in all your provinces so I could take advantage of my flying 3 strat movement of my demons to hit all your weak areas and then pop the tax rate to 200% because I would leave it. At the same time I kept summoning more demons and got my pretender geared up with items. Then when I had double your troops I went for the intercept of your armies.

The war was inevitable anyway because I basically had to expand your direction and you to mine unless you wanted to fight jotum or ulm. Also the war was a good learning experience because I know that mercs suck against players, it is not as easy to predict what province you will move to like the AI, and that spies are very important.

What's the deal with Drool? I am enjoying this game, but his apparent disregard for our game is irritating. (Besides constantly having to wait for him.) He just abandoned another game, without any word. Several people have tried to contact him with no reply. I do hope nothing bad has happened to him, but how long do we put up with this?

I am a real newbie here, is this common and i'm just being a *****? If I am I apologize.

Well its going to force host in 3 hours and wonder if drool is going to stale.

If something happened to his internet or his computer or something then its ok but if he comes back is like oh I just didnt feel like doing my turns then there is a problem.

Or if he went away or something that could be a possibility. But from my understanding if people leave for a week or something they get someone to sub for them for a week.

If he wasnt staling and just doing his turns like the Last hour before it hosts then we couldnt ***** but he is staling in at least two games that we know of and probably more games that we do not, so i say we can ***** all we want.

In our 2nd game it looked like he just ignored it but for this one I have no clue...maybe he will be back soon I hope.

Hi all
I am getting pretty impatient to do my turns too. I think Drool staled 2 of the Last 3 & looks like doing so again. I reckon we should switch him to AI if we do not hear from him by this time tomorrow if not sooner. He looks pretty doomed based on the current alliances.

I had some correspondence with him & he seemed pretty fed up, though I may be reading how I would feel in his position into it. I got the impression he did not like the diplomacy aspects but he could maybe tell us more. We had a very good relationship in one game (well he gave me all his stuff as he got squished).

It's a tricky business innit?

Oh & gg Tannath & please PM me re Blah blah blah!
