Primea, newbie MA game (started)

The Forges of Ulm (TM) are getting ready to fire up.

Dwarf Hammers (provides forge bonus) available in very limited quantities; they have a base cost of 15 Earth Gems, but we have plenty of Earth Gems and would be willing to trade one for a comparable number of some other type of gems (we are mainly interested in fire and air gems); we might also consider a cash offer (for a limited time only...because, unlike some countries, Ulsman have to build their castles themslves). There's also a few magical items we're interested in ourselves; if you have at least Construction-2, contact me for a more comprehensive list.

Stipulations:
1. We will only trade with countries we have an NAP with. The NAP must be guaranteed a minimum of ten turns, after which either side can leave with a 3-turn warning.
2. Since quantities are somewhat limited at this time, we will apply a rule of "first come, first served"; you will be made aware of the appx turn no we will send you a hammer during the negotiation. Under certain circumstances, however, we would be willing to negotiate expedited service.
3. Payment will be made the turn before delivery.

Ulm...forging a better tomorrow! (TM)

...and demands 90 gold.

I have to admit, I'm sorta tempted; at 45 gold/person, one would think that they'd have to be pretty awesome.

Since the next patch will involve upgraded MA Ulm, how are we going to handle it? Restart? OK by Arco since I'm between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea...

the game goes on and ulm will just have more options to play with

It is too late to restart now. I beleive that Ulm will just adapt to the changes.

Everybody gang up on Ulm! Oh, sure, they might be all "NAP with us! We'll trade you stuff!" now, but the moment the patch is released, they'll be out for lebensraum! Beware!

In other news, the troops of Marignon have now occupied Eriu, bringing an end to the worship of the false god Styx. A preliminary Inquisition report questions whether Styx actually existed, and suggests he was no more than a myth the sidhe created as a way to control their Milesian underlings.

Thus the Marignon-Eriu war comes to a close. In honour of the fallen on both sides, we have built a triumphal arch at the entrance to Eriu -- the magnificent Baldr's Gate.

(Just kidding, Ulm, just kidding! By the way, I'd like to buy a hammer from you. Oh, and some earth boots at some point. Can pay in fire gems.)

On the subject of trading, I'd like to announce that at this time The Forges of Ulm (TM) are particularly interested in acquiring air gems, and would value them higher than other types of gems in trades. We'd also be willing to trade Earth, Water, or Death gems 1:1 for them.

And, of course, I think we should patch. Because of, uh, bug fixes. And the additions to LA Abysia.
