Nuance - Winner: Void! (Finished)

Velusion · #1 October 11th, 2007, 12:34 AM

When I first started noticing Vengeance of the Dead being cast on my pretender many, many turns ago - I gave the benefit of the doubt to other players, assuming (though I've never seen it before) that the AI nation I was fighting (Caelum) was casting it.

Then I noticed it was cast 5+ a turn on my pretender. I was extreamly skeptical it was the AI, but as I wanted peace I wasn't going to accuse anyone as I had NAPs with all my neighbors.

Then, a couple turns after the AI went under I got a few more. Still I ignored 'the villain".

About 4 turns ago I started to get them again, still I ignored them.

Last turn the villain decided to cast murdering winter on a province with troops. THAT I cannot not tolerate.

So, after considering the volumes of circumstantial evidence Naberius, Lord of the Pit and Devourer of Children, declares that Ermor has broken the spirit of the non-aggression pact and unleashes his demonic brethren upon the lands of the living-dead.

Ok no, just plain no.

Why the hell would I cast vengance of the dead on a god, in friendly dominion, who I have seen with well over 20MR?
Why would I cast a 50 gem spell requiring cold on a heat 3 nation?
Think what you like, and use any reason you like to declare war.
See you on the field of battle in 3 turns time?

Why would anyone else? Arco is the only other player I border now... So either he did a hell of a job setting you up over the last 15-20 turns (targeting my pretender only when he is a province that borders your own so I'm not in my own domain) or it's you! You even advertised your Vengeance of the Dead services!

*tears up the violated NAP and points at Ermor* I call Shenanigans! The Legions of Hell already are on the march! Make your time! Count your days! All your base belong to us!

Well I'm incredibly annoyed. Mainly because this is the second time I've been attacked in a game by an 'ally' who has decided to disregard the NAP I had with them, although I know this happens.

Although this is the first time it has happened after that allied claimed "That it is perpetual and only ends by one of us giving notice to the other player and waiting the said amount of turns before commencing any hostilities".

Oh well - Have a fun game guys. I don't see myself surviving against abysian armies+most of the games blood uniques fully equipped.

edit: A small foot-note to apologise for the sulky nature of this post.

New turn is up guys - My war isn't going too great.

Also, the Unquenched Sword and the Barrier are both free now.

edit: Vel got in before me with the new turn news but my comments about the artifacts still stand.

....only if you dare to forge.

HOLY [censored]. The sky turned bloody in a split second.

My global only survived because I've used a minor mage to cast it and then hide him in the end of world sitting in the tower, but countless other mages casting site searching spells and forging items are slayed in the taint. INCLUDING the mage who has been empowered so many times and who had forged priceless uniques in the past. Meanwhile, the unholy nation of pythium has invaded land of Arco JUST NOW and, after seeing his action, I tend to believe that he has something to do for the corruption - know this corrupted pythium, the slaughter will not go unanswered.

Yes, my pretender was scripted for returning, but not thinking about it I've been pooling my astral pearls to harvest my clams. There go all three of my globals.

You wouldn't think that looking at your army graph...

I'm just waiting for your tartarians and undead hordes to come out and play.

The funny thing is that my global-caster didn't even die, my well of misery just got over-powered by the Astral Corruption casting before it killed off most of the other nations global casters.

You want my babies to come out and play? Well, maybe, but not yet. I'm going to try and either out-last your corruption or make you go back on your word to get rid of it.
