Default Re: Overlords - Game Thread. (playing)

as far as i can tell if everyone else but vanheim stales everyturn for the rest of the game it will take 3-4turns for him to achieve victory conditions and another 3turns for the victory to become official

every other game i've ever played ended via concession... so he's closer to any victory condition than i've ever seen any player in any game i've ever played.....



of course i doubt we'll all stale 7times in a row (that is still a solid measurement of the status as an unbiased metric)

I do not think my victory is guaranteed and I would like to play to completion. If for some reason that is not the view of everyone else and you are all not enjoying yourselves as much as I am. Then I would have no option but to accept such a concession. As I stated though, I am much further from victory than my current number of castles would imply.

And sure, if everyone from now until the end of the game were to stale, I'd have to beat pd and computer scripted mages after besieging and storming two 1000+ defense forts. Last I checked that's take something on the magnitude of 10+ gate cleavers, or 20+ wall shakers--to my great chagrin, I cannot seem to find these alleged sieging supplies. Or were those also being sent my way by my opponents under this nonsensical hypothetical situation? Hell, over such an 'unbiased metric' we might as well call all the games after the first turn--no one else's actions matter.

Dare I say Eriu is simply trying to draw attention away from the fact his own success long enough to bring his plans to fruition?
