No need to answer, if you're already posting it.

It's at http://devnada.wordpress.com/2012/02...-introduction/

It's still fairly preliminary, i.e., I might make edits, and the turns are a delayed to avoid giving away too much information. However, there's some stuff in there that might possibly be used against me, e.g., info about my pretender, but I don't think it will be that big a deal -- especially for a newbie game.

Thanks for the link. It's looking pretty good, so far, and I'm looking forward to reading more.

Cheers from me too. I'm having a blast so far, and you guy have been great. I'm a bit worried about Mictlan, though. It looks like he staled again last turn, and from the looks of it, he might stale again now. It's kind of holding up the game, not to mention that it's probably making Helheims conquest a bit too easy.

Iron Dukes profiles shows he was around the forums yesterday.

I think you can safely say he is finished with this game, and a name to remember when recruiting in the future as "unreliable".

Yeah, I think you're right. So what do we do now? Do we try to find a sub, or do we just switch him to AI? Finding a sub might be kind of difficult, since he's probably not too far from being knocked out.

Excuse me??!! Unreliable? Two stale turns and you get the "unreliable" tag? I have been fighting on 3 fronts, and will continue to do so until the very end. I am on three games now, losing two(in one only my capital remains) and my total stales in those games amount to two. By the way I demand an apology.

Have you ever thought that people might have access to internet connection but not dom3? Tell me if that's a fair arguement you make.

Oh yeah? Well I'll do you a favor and save you some scouting. I might have turned the tide against helheim( I was just doing so) except hinnom invaded our land from the south, ermor broke his nap-3 the moment he got wind of mictlan fighting two nations to do some scavenging. And some barbarian horde suddenly decided it'd be a grand idea to lay siege to one of my newly completed forts. So yeah it's been tough for me, though I didn't "make the helheim's conquest a little too easy" these things happen, maybe I'll see you in another game and who knows it'll be someone else to fall down first...

Yes thats a fair argument I make when you consider, if that was indeed the case, the courteous thing to do would have posted here, "hey guys, don't have access to Dom 3 at present, can we delay the turn til so and so".

You tell me if thats a fair argument! I think it is.

No offense, but I do think that two stale turns in a row are making things easier for him (and anyone else that may be invading you). That said, I sympathise with your situation in the game, as I've tried the same thing, in my only previous MP game. And yeah, stale turns do happen, and I guess they are to be expected once in a while.

Still, as HoleyDooley points out, it probably would have been a good idea to at least let us know what is going on, especially since we've been speculating about that, in this thread, for several days.

Anyway, I'm glad that you're still in the game, and I apologize for writing you off so soon.

I did give you three turns notice on that NAP-3, but no argument that I took advantage of your rather precarious strategic situation. I did take care of those barbarians for you

Sending a notice out there to all who's willing to help. I won't last much longer but I will pay for any assistance given. my territories are under heavy invasion from both Sauromatia and Ctis. From what I can tell the whole of their armies are on my front.

If anyone can possibly perform a counter invasion of their territories (Can't be hard. There's no way they have much more defending their own territories). I'll make sure to pay out what gold and gems I still have.

PM me the details if you do. ;D
