Default Re: Fomoria

Drake49, I want to warn you that I will answer any use of Mists of Deception
by starting to use every cheat or exploit I know. If you would like an
explanation I'd gladly give it to you.

Otherwise, welcome to the war. I think that Corwin's lack of time is a lot more
to blame for his bleak view of the situation than what has actually been
happening in the war. I am hurting a lot, especially now that Tien Chi's
main force has arrived on the scene, and is cracking castles in one turn.

If you need the turn delayed in order to get a better picture of the situation,
and renew Fomoria's diplomatic relations, I'm OK with it. Hell, if you want to
talk peace, I'm fine with it too, but I think that Corwin has managed to
convince everyone that I am so damn powerful I need to be stopped.

In any case, I would like to sign an agreement with you not to do anything that
kills population. I like to think that mine is a just and benevolent rule, and
that the civilian population has a hard enough time without being killed off by
various spells, pillaging, overtaxing, or patrolling.

I disagree, I stand by my assesment. If there would be any real hope of victory for Fomoria in this war I would continue playing, despite my severe time crunch. But I have been playing Dom MP for 3 years, and I know hopeless situation when I see it.

If I would take over all nations in the game and would have unlimited time, maybe (and this is big "maybe") the would be a small chance of stalemate (For example if other nations have strong astral reserves/clams hordes, perhaps I would manage to cast Arcane Nexus so strong that even Giants will all their clams would not be able to dispell it quickly).

But anything less then perfect coordination of all remaining nations and total dedication of all resources against Giants, and they will win - I have no doubts whatsoever.

Anyway, it's up to you guys to decide on the future of this game, I am just sharing my vision fo the situation. Let me know what you want to do.

Good game everyone!

I'm inclined to agree. My forces were basically spent (I had nothing left but freespawn, and barely enough income to pay my mages.)

This game was a very poor showing on my part. Having the forge gobbled by Niefelheim, while not surprising (of course he has a huge earth God), was a major ouch.

I also made a lot of mistakes, mainly not expanding fast enough or in enough directions.

But well played Niefelheim!

Well, I prepared my turn, and it took me exactly 4 hours... If you guys think that
you should surrender, I will be happy to accept. I do not think that you should,
I do not know why my enemies are so distraught, but hey, this game is getting
to be quite demanding. I have six castles that could be stormed this turn, I
am being pressed by armies comprised by 800, mostly summoned, troops and
hundreds (no exaggeration) of mages... And my attention is the one being most spread out.

Two people missed their turns according to the stats page - should I stop the game timer until things are cleared up?

Is Fomoria still playing or will that nation be handed to a new sub?

No, as I have indicated in my post, I am waiting for your decision guys, since I am a relatively recent sub myself, so I think it should be up to you to make this call. Do you want me to send Fomoria's password to Drake49?
