I definitely don't own 40 provinces, but I too own 3 capitols.

When touring the capital, why not visit the capitol? Capital and capitol are terms that are often confused, mainly because they refer to things that are in some ways related. The term for a town or city that serves as a seat of government is spelled capital. The term for the building in which a legislative assembly meets is spelled capitol.

In Dominions, I think the proper use is capitals. The walled town that you must capture that contains the capitol. Who says you cannot learn stuff on a gaming forum?

You can also spot who is native speaker

I guess that goes for one of the most common mistakes [like loosing instead of losing].

Kailasa owns zero capitals

We owned 3 once, but they are now owned all by lanka.
The rule over the Kailasan empire has shattered, and set to local governors.

Good game
btw. sometimes i wonder if baalz would have been able to defeat the lankan horde.

It looks like LA MArignon really needs a sub. Staling 2nd turn now? And in a war against X, where he can take huge advantage of that... not really a fair position, especially with X as game admin [not accusing anything, but I'd rather see game postponed by 24h to find a sub then see big nation like that going down because of that, or set to AI either].

The game will not be postponed. I received a pm from admiralzhao shortly after he staled, thanking me for giving him a list of potential subs, all of whom have hostile feelings towards me.

Admiralzhao is only gone 1 week, and he has not lost anything of value. Admiralzhao i have to assume could have sent in a turn as well as sending me a pm. If he stales again i will see if hadrian or someone else can temp sub for him until he returns.

But he has not lost anything of value to date.

It does look as if he has staled 2 turns consecutively. I will see if Hadrian can do some kind of turn for him. He is Bandar Log's ally, so Atul can name a sub if he desires. Atul and Utgard actually have 1st choice of naming a temp sub.

Since admiralzhao said he was only gone for a week, and he has not lost any forts, or anything of value, i do not think he requires a perm sub. My main attack was launched on admiralzhao BEFORE his announcement that he was leaving town for a week.

That came after I launched my assault. So I am certainly not delaying it out of chivalry.

Ea Mictlan owns 2 capitals and in 20 turns time will probably still own 2 capitals. However, alot of blood will have been shed defending those 2 capitals in the meantime! Which is good, because Ea Mictlan just can't get enough blood flowing...

As to wether Baalz would have defeated Lanka, I think you will know eventually, depending on wether or not he defeats me! If he does defeat me, than he might just possibly have defeated Lanka too, but Lanka is an entire order of magnitude more powerful than Ea Mictlan.

Oh oh, wierd **** going on!

Anyone noticed anything unusal with there turns?

I have just had a quick look and for some reason one of my hidden dudes gained 1W gem, totally inexplicable, why?!?

Perhaps more serious is I got a completely free Onaqui, it appeared like a national hero would but I really don't think it is a national hero. Has not got a unique description or anything.

There may be more going on, that I have not picked up on yet.

Zeldor · #**1159** October 8th, 2008, 04:59 PM

Meglobob:

Huh, I know that situations. But afaik only 3 times they may appear are:
- reroll causing messed up .2h files [not possible]
- cheating [someone would have to make commanders ids go wrong]
- commander limit [but that is 9000, so rather not possible]

I think llamabeast should inspect that.

Xietor · #**1160** October 8th, 2008, 05:28 PM

That is not a llamabeast issue. Bugs should be sent to Edi or someone from illwinter.

Lllamabeast actually told me:

"The onaqui probably is a national hero. Some heroes are just standard
units/summons. As for the water gem - odd, but not too serious.

If more stuff turns up let me know. Not that there's anything I can do,
but hey, it's nice to have someone to tell!"
