MP: Pointy Sticks MA started

[RonD]

The game seems to be stuck. I received an email claiming it could not find a valid .2h file. I resent mine and got a confirmation email, but that doesn't seem to have done anything.

[Mightypeon]

I hav received my turn normally, I am delaying by 24 hours in any case.

[RonD]

It did eventually host that turn. I (and everyone except C'Tis and Ulm) have submitted the current turn, but it looks like Llamaserver is suffering from an overflow of confusion - several games have all the .2h files received but are not hosting.

[Mightypeon]

Autohost is on, but I will make a further delay for 24 hours just in case Ctis has issues.
In any case, the onset of war between Pythium and Mictlan has no doubt created a huge increase in diplomatic activities all over the world, so more time to conduct random deals is likely in the interest of many nations.

You are watching:

Ulm News! Fair and heavy!

The entire world is aghast at the speed and ferocity and Shinuyamas assault into Ctissian territory! In a single month of operations, the Bakemono have catapulted themselfs into the rank of a true world power! Although significant parts of Shinuyama are water, and thus of comparably more limited use than land provinces. However, few nations are likely to consider the task of taking on Shinuyamas Kappa legions in their own element as particularly enticing.
While the Bakemono conquered much land, in particular via the insertion of Bakemono-Sho commandos deep into Ctis itself, Royal Ctissian army is largely unscathed as it apperantly was out of position, even though they appeared to have pulled out of Tien Chi earlier. It remains to be seen what will happen in this war.

Dear propagandists,

Your news story has a mistake that requires a retraction. The C'Tissian Royal Army should be referred to as the other CRA or the second CRA. The first army sent against T'ien Ch'i was sent on into the afterlife.

Thank you for your continued reporting. We always enjoy your view of events.

[Mightypeon]

Well, the 12 hour warning is in, only I send my turn, and I will make the reasonable assumption that a holiday induced 48 turn delay will be seen as positive by a majority.

Kudos to Shinuyama for what looks to have been a carefully coordinated and enormous opener to your war with C'tis. The charts don't show C'tis as having lost any troops so I can only assume there is a great deal of fighting left to see who actually gets to keep those provinces. Still, it looks very impressive from the charts; I look forward to you writing up some sort of report about it once you can do so without compromising your ability to compete in this game.

Indeed, we seem to have a minor infestation of goblins here. It should be dealt with shortly.

Greetings,

we are setting the timer to 48 hours for now, as we are imho proceeding rapidly into the midgame.
Please note that any additional delay requests are more likely to be granted in time if send to me via PM, as I am getting those at my E-Mail. At my work, my E-Mail Adress is safe for work, but this forum is not.
