Re: I give up!
Yes, I don't think turning AI at this point (Man is still powerful : first in provinces, third army, many kinds of indie mages, even if the capitol has been lost -I think even without the stale you couldn't keep it long- ) is very good for the game.
Perhaps before setting Man to AI you may ask for a sub, there may be a player interested by the challenge of taking this kind of position (if a sub can be found I'm even ok for a truce of one or two turns, if the others are ok too).

Not really, I am inbetween all 3 remaining contenders Arco, Oceania and Pangaea. So you can each get a large slice of my lands.
Trust me, man's empire was finished, I have been in decline for 5+ turns now. I have lost all my most powerful mages to soul hunt, wrath of god and battle, probably 40+ easy. Also lots of other commanders etc... Both my pretender and prophet were killed last turn, my illusionist province was captured, my capital captured, no hope whatsoever of taking them back. All my armies are in the south (near Arco) or west, near Pangaea, they have no real mage support so are very vulnerable to magic.
Remember I have been fighting against Arco/Ermor/Pangaea for some time and have taken appalling losses. Oh yea, I only have 500 - 1,000 gold to spend each turn as well, which is not enough to be able to replace my losses.
The grapths do not tell the full story of how well an empire is doing. Man was not as strong as the grapths seem to imply.

Re: I give up!
I'm patching all my games this evening. Let me know when one of you guys has won.

Re: I give up!
Could everyone please take turns? There are evidently patch related problems and I want to host a turn for this game before patching. Don't unload another turn after the game hosts, though.

Re: I give up!
Okay, some people have already patched. I have some work to do and then I'll patch and bring the servers back up. Hopefully the turns taken under the previous patch will still work.

Re: I give up!
Conbquering the seas? Are you insane? No way that is going to happen. Pangaea is blind with greed.

Re: I give up!
IMHO you may conquer a sufficient number of VP to win faster than Oceania, considering all but one are on land. But it's nice if you let me a chance by spending 30 turns trying to take the seas.  |
