Hopefully thing will now speed up. lol

I think an enternal knight is those flying power dudes who come with the mercenary Orion. I believe they cannot be recruited, but at least I will get ordinary knights there if needed.

I may attack with a scout and see exactly what they are. If he is unable to retreat because they do fly, then it is not a big loss that way. And if I do this, I will post the stats of those guys in here for all us newbies.

But yes, it is a candidate for staying neutral a long time. Unfortunate for me because I plan to put a castle in the adjacent province at some future point.

And it was 70 the first time I could see it, so there ought to be less than 100.

Eternal Knights don't fly - and they aren't really knights either, having neither horses nor lances. They are just very powerful infantry with flambeaus and (IIRC) they are ethereal.

I guess it looks like panther wont take that indy province until turn 50 now lol.

Oh and just the luke brothers and pashadawg left for their turns.

If me and my brother were to use a different computer entirely to take our turns for awhile. Would that still be considered a Cd Key violation and our turn orders ignored? I am asking this because I suspect that me and my brother will not be able to use the desktop computer for a week starting on August 30th.

I do believe the server tracks CDkey violations by the following method: Two nations are checked for having uploaded from both the same IP, and the same CDkey. If you are the same IP and same CDkey, you are assumed to be one person playing two nations. If you are the same IP and two different CD keys, you are different people behind a NAT firewall. If you have different IPs and different keys, you are different people. If you have the same key, and different IPs....well, sucks to be you.
