One thing about easy VP requirements... they make the "early game" alot more interesting. I feel like i have to have a scout surrounding every VP province in order to find out who's about to win.

yah no doubt

and its scary too - VP games like this are often won by some sudden stealth or teleporting attack; in which case, your scout won't have helped too much.

Your sarcasm shows how little you fear any attack and thus are still in a position of complete dominance. But I intend to crap all over your lands while I still have the power to do so.

lol whatever man. I should be able to destroy your invading army, eventually, somehow, but its true i'm gonna lose a ton defending myself. why exactly you're so edged up about this all, i've got no idea. At least we're comparable empires - more honour than wiping arcos

Default Consistency troubles

There seem to be some symptoms of a problem within the game: For one, the continuous cheating messages and for another there were battle replay inconsistencies in one of my battles with Ulm. (Both me and Morkilus observed the inconsistencies.) I take it the server is running version 2.16? Anyone else encountering oddities? (There was the Ulm cheating message too, so it's not a stretch that Pangaea is not the only one with weirdness going on.)

Default Re: Consistency troubles

no battle inconsistencies that i've noticed - though there were some notable ones in SoL, which is on a completely different server... clearly these problems have not been solved. However, this server is not run by an active player anymore, so it could be that it is running pre-1.16. Or it could be that the CB mod has introduced something (as SoL is also running 5.2), though I have no idea what or how that could be.

as to the cheating messages, I suspect some sort of site (perhaps hidden) as the messages seem to change over between ulm and pan - you guys might be able to identify a couple possible provinces... it would be interesting to know.

This game is running on version 2.16 as is all the other games on this server. Of those I dont recall any mention of cheating messages so it is probably ok. I think that arch's ideas are probably accurate.

Huh, I was sure I did my turn yesterday yet it says I staled (Sorry Mork for the free ride!)... Well, this one I'll put down for my flu instead of the game Interestingly there was no cheating message for the stale turn, which would indicate that it's something active I do that triggers it.
