Default farewell, Ronan

I'd like to thank Panther for starting this game. It's too bad he ended up in an untenable position so early, because I think in the last 20 turns or so, the game has started looking like what he intended.

I wouldn't mind seeing another such game (wyrms, dragons, mages, whatever) in the future (after this one is done). I think that to make diplomacy even more important, the number of starting provinces/nation ought to be reduced.

As a side note, Panther's game has the effect of illustrating Dominion 2's inherent variety. 16 wyrms in 16 different nations with 16 strategies. A beginner could look at the pretender builds on the wiki and learn a lot about the possible variety of strategies. If I were not sitting in an empty apartment, on my way out to move, I'd add a space on the pretender builds page (or maybe links) for people who want to explain how they chose their build. That way beginners would have a small reference of all the various strategies one can do with a single pretender, but almost any nation.

they tried a dragon one, but only half the players do their turns, and the senate has not passed anything, infact there is no real structure, just a quiet and enduring peace accord between all nations. Its weird.

Default Hold up

I think we are waiting for Folket to get his internet connection again, but the next turn will be on Tuesday if not sooner.

Er - this is next week. And a turn didn't go on "Tuesday if not sooner" - are we dead?

No word from Folket.
Has anyone seen him in any other games?

It would be a real shame if he dropped out...

Sorry, since it was the weekend I thought next week would refer to the week after the coming week.

So at some point during the coming week I will get my connection.
