Sorry about the stale, I just wasn't paying attention. Shouldnt have much effect, though.

Immaculate · #**122** February 19th, 2012, 08:19 PM

Marrignon- we are breaking our 5 turn NAP at this point. Sorry.

Exactly in which turn does our NAP end? I didn't read this in time, and I'm not sure which turn was it when you made me the notice.

shatner · #**124** February 22nd, 2012, 01:15 PM

Crap! I have got to follow this thread better.

Anyway, with Jomon dead and buried it's time for someone to start something and it looks like T'ien Ch'i has. *Sniff* I'm so proud. So yeah, Marignon, consider this notice that Atlantis is ending our 6-turn NAP agreement. So there's no confusion, this announcement is coming at the start of turn 50 which means your nation and mine will have all of turns 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, and 55 to get ready for the slugfest that'll start on turn 56. Aqualibrium really doesn't appreciate having her enchantment handiwork knocked down time and again.

turn 49 + 5 turn nap is turn 54.

So on the opening of turn 55 i will expect to see a huge number of remote spells bouncing off my domes in futility while your armies are slaughtered here there and everywhere. by turn 56 your entire empire should be in flames and i will be declare high cheese of the world! Vive all the cheeses of the world!

Just jokes... but in all honesty, i will order attacks during turn 54 and when you open turn 55 you should recieve news of attacks from myself. And vice-versa.

Tell me if i got anything wrong.

Sorry I didn't participate more fully, though I think I managed to get most of my turns in at least. To be honest I found the micro-managing overwhelming. Thanks for letting me play and I apologise again for my mediocrity.

Immaculate · #**127** February 23rd, 2012, 10:26 AM

I don't think you were mediocre. you just had the double-bad luck of starting next to a very strong atlantis that hemmed in your expansion and gettnig the troll and his adventurer buddies stalling you for a long time. Than you picked a fight with me- which you sort of had to do i guess... and it was going well until patala died.

Anyway, don't feel bad. at least my attempt to use the ride the wind spell on your immortal pretender when he was out exploring by himself didn't work. grrr...

triqui · #**128** February 23rd, 2012, 12:39 PM

It's ok, turn 55 and 56 will be the attacks.
Fine enough, will try to hold a little bit before Atlantis win the game :P

To Shaetner: I'm sad you arent happy with your enchantment being knocked down, but casting a enchantment that make everybody ages fast when your "ally" has a nation that more than half of their mages have severe old age problems is almost casus belli. It's like poisoning our wells and telling us it's unfair to clean it. It looks like Tien Chi doesnt share this vision, which means that either they don't care about their own old mages (maybe they don't recruit them), or that they didn't notice your subtle attempt to decimate everybody magical support to secure your domination of the world. In any case, I did what I thought it was best for my reign.

See you all in the Battlefields I guess

Aqualibrium's been castin' Well of Misery which does two things:
1) Everyone (you, me, and everyone else) gets 10% more income from their provinces
2) I get a butt load of death gems

What you are thinking of is Burden of Time, which causes all units to age a year or more every turn and is really bad news for old dudes.

Two completely different spells with radically different effects.

Edit: T'ien Ch'i probably doesn't care because he enjoys getting more money. Plus the spell says it eases the woes and aches of all the world's peoples so his old mages probably appreciate the spell cuttin' down on their arthritis.

Thanks Immaculate. I did try my best to hinder you with curse spells and so on - go down fighting rather than just give up - but I had no answer to your Ancestor Smiths and suchlike. I'd hoped my various summoned beasties would make more of a fist of the final battle, but so it goes. Maybe I should have been using them earlier.

I didn't have a coherent plan for my research, and I had no idea what items would have assisted me. I think this is the sort of game where note-taking is helpful!
