Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
Don't worry, LL. Arco was army blocking/"scouting" with scouts and diseased mages scripted to retreat as well so you are not alone.

Now this one is a blatant falsehood! I admit my NAP violation but movement blocking is NOT in my past!
They were not capable of blocking any armies because movement happens BEFORE attacks are resolved and the issue only arises if two nations move laterally into eachothers provinces in the same round. No matter the number of diseased mages I sent from one of my provinces to scout you or fomoria during your war, not once did they ever block an army going to or from yours and fomoria's provinces because neither of you were moving into -my- provinces at any of the times I did this.
Now if you're talking about my diseased 100g mage with 2hp remaining that Magic Dueled your SC Melqart and won, that was simply temendous luck (40% chance both die, 25% one lived) on my part and a very valid tactic!

Yea true blocking is only if you literally move a scout against an army that is moving to the province where he is. Then there is 50% 50% chance that the battle occurs where the army is or where the scout is.

No, I wasn't referring to thugging or single Mage magic duels. I was just talking about stuff that is cheesy but not declared illegal for this game (thus I did not complain when it happened), but for the record I consider constantly sending a scout into the same province with retreat orders to raise unrest to be cheesy to a slightly lower magnitude than LL sending his scout in to see enemy composition. Thus LL has company. Neither are illegal and both are cheesy.

Re: The Good, the Bad intermediates and the Ugly noobs (Running)
Actually, I have a business meeting tomorrow night, and I just realized that I'm not sure when I'll get back tomorrow night. Can we have a 24 hour delay please?
