Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
Hehe, oh i still think i will win, but I admit its not a sure thing at all and it could be important how Man and Patala go, which is why this whole premature win thing kind of sucks because it puts me in a bad situation diplomatically with them.
I say to Man and Patala you can choose a life of servitude, torture and the blood sacrifice of your people raised as cattle under Mictlan or we can all just go to sleep in the empire of Dreamlands That doesn't sound so bad, now does it? Just dreaming until its time to pick a new Pancocreator?
Now I know Patala kind of swings that blood sacrifice way anyways, but I ask you, who will be the blood slaves in the empire of Mictlan? You or Mictlan? I think you can figure that one out.
Oh yeah and which one do you hate more?
My Arcane Nexus which is really just a green recycling initiative to pick up those gems the rest of you were wasting in inefficient magic item production and summoning.
Or Mictlan's Astral Corruption that assasinates your hard working mages.
One is a friendly knock on the door (ME, Dreamlands), ssking you to sort and curb your recyclable gems and the other is a visit from a HORROR ( HIM, Mictlan) who sucks your life out and marks you for repeat horror attacks throughout all eternity.
Again, I think the choice is clear.
I agree though, this is where the game gets pretty interesting with all the late game battlefield magic and summons.

Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
I think you're underestimating the economic *benefits* of blood sacrifice. Full employment! Those blood spattered alters don't clean themselves!
I put up the astral corruption as a disciplinary measure - this way, the CPU players won't be able to spend their gems out of combat. I would never have raised it if he hadn't put up
Anyway, my real argument is this - you have a much better chance of defeating me after uniting against him than the reverse. Can either of you even get into the water efficiently?

Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
The Eater of Gods killing our mages is one heck of a "disciplinary" measure.
Wow, again easy choice here people!
MIctlan offers disciplinary measures and employment cleaning blood splattered altars to his false God.
As for me I offer dreams. You may say that I am a dreamer, but am I the only one? Man? Patala?
In any case Mictlan offers a false choice. Either way he wins or I win, there is no benefit to Man or Patala unless one of them wins. Your jedi mind tricks will not work on them. Well maybe they will. Not sure.
Now, look into my eyes, you are getting sleepy, very sleepy.

Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
Well what do you guys think? I consider the pbem a little bit of a pain with the extra steps, but I'm all for it. I wanna see all the crazy stuff that Mictlan and Ry'leh are about to do to each other!

Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
Okay, unless there are any objections then I will host this game (I have heard from a couple of players that they would like me to).
Can you all PM me your e-mail addresses please?
And in fact could someone tell me which players are still in the game so I'll know when I've got them all?

Re: Game: Shadow People (open)
Okay, it seems that the remaining players are Xox, Dr P and BigDisAwesome (Tequilich has asked to be set to AI). I'm just waiting for an e-mail address from Xox, then I can get the game going again.
