That was quite a turn, I believe the largest turn file I've ever had.

It didn't go too badly for me. But, unless you can put the game on a hiatus for a couple of weeks, I'm going to have to bow out and respectfully declare you the winner. You certainly deserve it. That was quite a blitz.

With more time, I should be able to put up a good fight. I'm confident at least in the near term I can advance in a few areas of the map though while losing in a couple of others. But, with work trips the next two weeks and both my son's birthday and holiday events on the weekends, I won't have the opportunity for a while.

Sure np, it s going to be a very nice war i don't want to miss that !
Anyway i'll need a break for Christmas either.

I'll put a huge timer, send turns when you can and we try to get back to the normal pace in january, is that good for you ?

@anaconda don't bother more yourself with this game, turn AI i won't blame you.

That certainly works for me. Thank you, Bullock. I'll try to make the delay worthwhile.

Well, if I turn AI it will be a hassle...

I could say I was there until the end... I hope - or not.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the end is that far off in terms of numbers of turns. Just to make a response that does justice to the full on blitz Bullock is employing I'm going to need a lot more time for a turn than the hour or so I've been doing in the game thus far.

And, due to a couple of trips added to my schedule lately and some other family commitments, I won't have that kind of time for a bit. If you just want to avoid going AI, you are well past the hump in that regard.

This is also why I am Ok with declaring Bullock the winner. Since, to even have a shot at victory, as slim is it is, I'm asking for alteration of the original terms of the game in my favor. Arguably, I did so already with the request for 50 hour hosting interval but did my best to not take advantage of them.

Even though you are far from having any chance of victory, I don't see why you avoid getting in a fight altogether. Personally, I like wars without the pressure that being in line to win brings. Ossa, I think, showed how effective even the weakest nation can be when their meager resources are put to good use.

In other words, attack me and the game will be over that much more quickly.

I asked about the Ember Lord issue myself in the CBM 1.84 thread.

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showt...t=47252&page=6

Unfortunately, the mod file for our game on the server seems to be missing the flying tag for the Ember Lord. So, if you try to move him two provinces in the same turn the server will deny the move. Just move them one prov per turn and you should be Ok.

And, I'm not sure what to make of the reports myself. I hardly watch the battles much less dig through those. But, I don't see any missing Grendelkins. Sorry.
