Marmoset - MA game with mod nations - full

Sombre · #1 January 9th, 2008, 06:39 AM

I just want to say I am so glad you guys are enjoying my mod nations. I put quite a lot of work into them and I will continue to update them when needed - the payoff is basically when people play with them and enjoy them.

Yep, we certainly have been enjoying them Sombre. I really like having them in the game. Skaven have been great fun (largely due to Digress's refusal to die). I'll definitely start another mod nations game in the near future I think.

Playing the Skaven was a blast. I am just sad that I was unable to mass enough of their "toys" to turn back the hordes of Ulm. Ohhh but for more globadiers, more warpfire throwers and more warpfire throwers .... more provinces, gems and troops ... better scripting, better leadership ... then, oh yes then the skaven would still be in the game

I've postponed the hosting by 12 hours for myself. I've been/am in London, and won't get back till very late tonight.

I see from the LlamaServer that the Skaven and Abysia are out/AIed. I guess my Air Queen finally got your ragtag bunch of pests, Digress? What a relief!

I've given myself another 8 hours - I didn't really have time to take my turn before work.

Turns out I didn't have such a good time against the Skaven after all, I guess Digress just finally set himself to AI (many thanks by the way Digress for battling on so long). His ratlings fought off my invincible Air Queen (she lives, but 50 turns of killing skeletons made her run off), only to be finally destroyed by an army of penitents, with monstrous losses. But meanwhile a single death mage popped up elsewhere, and liberated another province from me. Cursed ratlings!

Phew, Skaven didn't survive our alliance after all! Okay, time to see my rolling thunder... erh... I sure hope you've got bigger armies in the North against Ulm.

Digress · #7 January 18th, 2008, 03:36 AM

Thought I wouldn't survive the turn so set myself to AI (did mean to announce it). Had been reduced to using some of my surviving mages as melee units to hold of province defence long enough for remaining mages to mop them up.

Ummmm ... is it rude to ask what happened to Abysia ? As my income nose dived I kind of killed off my scouts in the north by bringing them back to attack Ulm's weakly defended provinces (without great success). Did someone other than Ulm Reborn profit from their destruction ?

Thanks again to everyone for the game. Thanks especially to llamabeast for setting it up and to Sombre for the various mods that added some real flavour to proceedings. At present I am playing Ulm Reborn in the mid part of a game and am still convinced that as a nation it is well balanced (even though Ulm Reborn just whipped my hairy hide).

Edited to thank Sombre - quite an oversight !!!

Hopefully not, my war with Tien Chi left me quite soft for the Ulm invasion, his stealthers crippled all my fortresses. I did manage to kill many barbarians including their wyrm god in my attempts to take them down with me.

Obviously, in hindsight, I should have ended my NAP with Ulm as soon as it was clear he was dominating.
