Another Newbie Slugfest - Restarted

[PashaDawg]

Looks like the Giants are getting kinda big and spread out. Just stay out of our peaceful forests, big boys.

Now playing turn 24.

Allies and Enemies,

My humblest apologies for the stale Last turn. I thought my turn had posted but had to reboot trying to exit the game after "End Turn". Could not get back in. Believe I had connectivity issues as the wife was lambasting me about not being able to get into her mindless Yahoo games!

Turn 25 is Online and ready for your perusal.
Ahh... I feel a cool wind is blowing in the south and that wind is blowing out of fear.
This hidden statistics has made me a little trigger happy and more than a little paranoid, add to that the lack of talking and it makes for a darker game.
Do the more central nations feel vulnerable? Vanheim?
I know I do.

Lord of the Giants,

I did have to chuckle when you mentioned earlier to my nation that you were worried about the Lord of the Wild having 130 units on his border with you. Do you have any idea just how incredibly fast Pangaea can get his free Maenads with a turmoil 3 setting? And just how weak those wimpy things are? Fodder, pure and simple, that is what they are. They remind me of the free Mictlan slaves. One giant is worth maybe 10-20 Maenads.

You didn't really have to worry about Pasha and his huge army of Maenads. He was losing many each turn to 9 indies anyway. But likely he is replacing them just as quickly as they die.

I admit that I am watching the war with great interest in the outcome.

I also think that the nations who started in the middle instead of the map edges would definitely be a lot more paranoid.

As for diplomacy (or lack therof), I was also a bit surprised just how badly you messed up the early message from my Minister of State, Madam Candice, to you. I am glad she managed to sort that little bit out.


Cheers,
The Queen of Blood and Fire


P.S. One of the things about Dominions is that you really need a sheet of paper with notes on it. I have one for each game I am currently doing, and it helps me a lot with my poor aging memory.

[Steerpike]

Yeah thanks Panther.
I learned a lot after that mistake of mine and now I keep pretty extensive notes. Madam Candace has taught me well...roaw.
As for mistakes this is my 3rd Multiplayer game and I think it shows. I always play a couple of single player games at the same time with the same settings, but its not the same.

[KroolDeath]

Lack of diplomacy? Perhaps there just has not been any directed towards certain nations.

I jest of course...or do I?

Yes, a centrally located nation is rather...intriguing...Perhaps an alliance of the central nations is in order!
