No, we need to exceed the amount of extra gems he put into the Nexus + 30 to cast the Dispell. I've got 35, so whatever i recieve from the rest of you will need to exceed his extra gems. We will also get a samll bonus from my caster's level. It would really be best if we did this next turn, so if Arco has not triggered the quickhost and you have not sent gems please redo your turn and do it now if you intend to help- the Nexus makes a minimum of 30 pearls a turn.

Okay, Tyrant's paln sounds better. I redid my turn and send my gems to Maverni. Let's do this!

Tequilich · #**133** August 21st, 2007, 03:49 PM

Oh ok I see. I sent 30 gems to Maverni.

BTW- nice job whoever is playing Ryleh, turn 43 is very quick to put up the Nexus.

Tyrant, don't you think we should try a small dispel first (like maybe 40-50 gems total)? If that fails, we could save up for a larger one. I'd be happy to donate 10 gems for the small dispel. I don't think we should put, say 100 gems into the dispel -- that could end up being a waste of gems. I don't mind wasting 50 gems, that is small potatoes. If that fails we should save up maybe 300-400 gems collectively and cast it again.

If the nexus stays up, he will recast with what he gets from it. That's what I would. Tyrant, I feel I am not pulling my share with what I send. I will send so many again in next turn, as appreciation. I just have bad astral gem income despite being Arco.

CUnknown · #**137** August 21st, 2007, 08:33 PM

I have sent 35 astral gems to Maverni. It's in your hands, Tyrant, but I think it's best to wait until we've got at least 150 astral saved up if you are trying for a big dispel right away. The worst thing that can happen is if we try for a big dispel and fail.

Pangea broke our NAP. Hopefully the dispel this turn will work or Ry'leh is in for a big payday...

Tyrant · #**139** August 23rd, 2007, 10:06 PM

Well, y'all sent so many gems that i seriously considered trying it with less and giving rebates, but i used the full 135 (+20 bonus = 155!) and we failed anyway.

I'm boggled, but there it is. on the plus side that means we have a few more turns till he turns a profit (ahem).

CUnknown · #**140** August 24th, 2007, 12:02 AM

Well, that means he has the minimum (or close to it) in his Stellar Focus. Let's dispel that one, at least. 40-50 gems should do it. Better yet, someone should over-cast it.

Everyone besides the person over-casting Stellar Focus, start saving your astral gems until we get 300.

In addition (just to be safe), the anti-Ryleh offensive should begin immediately. I can send some mechanical men down there. It won't be a whole lot of guys, but I can open up another front on him.

Ulm, are you adjacent to him at all? I feel a little guilty for cancelling our NAP at a time like this, but I have land forces that have nothing to do--they'd be useless against Ryleh anyway. My centaurs are thirsty for blood, I can't control them!
