Utterdark? Pish, I'm not thinking that small. ; )

And you're right, part of the reason why I made that offer is that I do think I will gain a greater benefit. I freely admit it! --However, I am not certain that is true--it would allow you two more time to shake down, reorganize, and coordinate for example--and I am (reasonably) certain that if we started the war on Turn 62, I would win.

You've done well with R'lyeh--better than I did in my first MP game with them. And quite frankly, AreaOfEffect has impressed the HELL out of me. I would love to play against either of you again in another game, but after that jaw-dropping comeback against Pangaea, I would be nervous fighting him without, oh, three-to-one odds or so. ; )

I'm not going to do my turn tonight; it's past my bed time as it is. I'll give AoE a chance to respond, see if anything comes up, and submit my turn after work tomorrow.

Most importantly, let's try to have fun!

I'm fine with the war starting as soon as turn 62 comes around. In my particular situation it happens to be just enough time. I only requested the rollback because I felt truly sorry about what happened to all those mages. Granted, they had it coming to them (damn nether dart spam).

I'm fine with your stance and the extra time isn't needed on my part. If Jim needs more time beyond turn 62 then I yield to him, otherwise lets get it on.

Heh. Xanthus found his way back from the Void, I see.

And now it begins. In all honesty, I just don't see how the two of you can win against Ermor, with the forces I have arrayed against you. We shall see though! At one point in this game, I sent a friendly-neighbour congratulatory message to Cor2, for Pangaea defeating Mictlan... ; )

Above all, let's have fun!

Well, as you can see, he was a bit "touched". The note that he left his wife implied that he thought the war had already started, and that he was late to meet up with his unit. Officially, our government has no knowledge of this "Void" that you speak of, it's just a rumor.

So this is turn 62 already? Well, bugger. I had thought we were 1 more turn away from the launch of festivities. No bother, I am not going to let my confusion interfere with our fair schedule.

Let's get ready to RUUUUUMMMMBLE!!!

Oh eck. < Wets self, hopes no one can tell underwater. > O.O

By being unable to see how we can win you have made real the possibility of such an occurance. For clearly you have no contingency against what you can not see. By the way, hows the homefront doing?

Oh Frej, it seems like only yesterday I had brought/summoned you into this world. Now you're all grown up and on top of the Hall and Fame. (tear) 666 kills, I couldn't think of a more fitting number. (breaks down sobbing)

Seriously though, you may be right. I may have no chance to survive. I don't think it really matters at this point though as I have the replay of the battle at Ralothia forever in my possession.

Good first round by the way.

P.S.: My prophet is still alive, fully geared up, and ready for more.

Did I get all of the Elemental Royalty in my territory?

I'm a bit annoyed, I forgot those 2 commanders Patrolling at Caelum - that's 80 or so men that were supposed to be inside right now, going over the plan to break the siege. Where are my advisors?! So fired.

Sun Tzu might have some clever things to say about the present turn. I may beseech him for comment after the next few months play out.
