A little note for the hoster, Cooron. Your status page is quite handy, I'm exceedingly grateful for it. I will mention one small flaw I just noticed.

At this moment, it shows my turn (31) as completed. In reality, all I did was connect, download, look at my turn, then quit without saving.

If I reconnect, the in-game interface shows my turn as untaken.

It's a quirk of the game. I have worked around that, but it does require that you set up your games in a certain way, and probably more difficult than most people would grasp or care about. Cooron doesn't seem to make much use of the finer tuning options, but then again it's cool enough that he got a PHP capable web server running for his game.

Yeah- its cool. I really don't mind whether its worked around or not, what I'm interested in is seeing Man send in their turn so I can see the results of my retaliation against Pangaea, and hearing a bit from Cooron. Quiet sort, while I blather pointlessly sometimes, but I do like to gossip about the game a bit. Pangaea is currently 'silent but deadly', growing large, saying little. Perhaps a more strategically wise way of playing than some of the tidbits I've given up on occasion.

As soon as I get home... This is why I would like a longer timer. Right now
I have to take my turn as soon as I get home. Feels like a job :-(

Especially in a game in which I feel as useless as in this one. There isn't much
that Man can do against Ermor.

[Lazy_Perfectionist]

I haven't played Man yet, myself. Someone's always grabbed it before me.

Your post...
It's given me some interesting ideas as to how I might try to use air and nature magic against hordes of undead, but...
Lacking any experience, I guess I'll have to try a sp test game at home, though MP opponents are always more challenging. On top of that, this is a CB game, so I really have no idea how my ideas will turn out, even against the unclever ai.

EDIT: Actually, I'm pretty skeptical about my ideas, the more I think of them, but oh well, I'll try em out anyways in a quick SP game.

What nature magic? LA Man has no nature mages. I am fighting Ermor
over a province that had nature mages before he devastated it.
And now I am off to take my turn. I hope it is not too late.

[Lazy_Perfectionist]

As I said, I have VERY little experience. I got confused with MA Man.

[Lazy_Perfectionist]

And now Pangaea has left the seas to attack Ctis...

I'm assuming they made a small move order mistake there. Or are trying to start a world war.

My retaliation was underwhelming, to say the least. But at least I discovered all those harpies at relatively little expense, just some death gems.
