MP: NewPlayersRumble - (Late Era) STARTED!

[Gurthang]

Looks like we have couple problems:

- the server is not delivering the turns;

- three players out of seven, including the game administrator, seem to be out of the game.

Shall we look for replacements or call it a quit?

[dojango]

Ulm sent me the password to the game before dropping out. I can fiddle around with it if we need to change the settings.

[kasnavada]

Errr Ulm completely dropped too ?

[kasnavada]

Ok...

3 out of 7 stalled. I don't know about you but unless people got some news, the game is screwed for me.

Me too.

As a side note, I hope to find more serious opponents for my next game.

[dojango]

Ulm and Arco dropped out because they have been crushed utterly, the only thing left is the mopping up. And Agartha never really was a serious contender.

[kasnavada]

Ulm had not been crushed utterly... When I got 1/3 of his territory he just stopped playing / attacking altogether, which resulted in the current situation.

I've got more 400 flying people on his cap and I just can't breach it. That's how much forces he's got. It's about 2/3 of my complete military, including my 3rd prophet and my God. He amassed a significant force of vampires which... he barely used... I expected attacks every turn.

That's a significant force, not mop-up...

While some of the strategic choice Kuketski made were... well it's a newbie game, I made some heavy mistakes as well. So, while I had an advantage, the game had been fun until he just left his territories to be taken from him. It's the first time I'm successful in a campaign in a MP game (apart from times when I rushed someone 2 vs 1).

So, thanks for the game Kuketski, hopefully I'll see you in another game.

[dojango]

Ah, he sounded more defeated in his messages. I don't have good intel on that area because someone keeps eating my scouts...

[kasnavada]

Well. I can see why he may think that, given the battles we had. With 4 stalls leaving me in charge of all his lands, he's not coming back to a power level near yours or Abyssia's, even if he still has a strong army. I reversed dominion on his cap, so basically he cannot get out now. That fight should have happened 6 or 7 turns ago (that's the time I needed to reverse the dominion). On another note, I kinda hope I did not scare Kuketski out of MP games, as I enjoyed the fight - just not how it's ending.

On the subject of continuing the game or not, I'm sceptic about finding 3 people to make what looks like last stands. I'd rather stop, but if a majority of you guys wish to continue, I'll go on.

[The Kurgan]

I am fine with stopping this one. I find it hard to even do my turns I am so far behind and in such bad shape...

BUT I will stick it out if we choose to keep playing.
