I'm upgrading right now. And I'd ask that you'd send me turns in 3.04 format now. We finally should have the hunter bug behind us, cheers!

Mind Elemental · #**132** December 8th, 2006, 07:57 PM

Resent in 3.04 format.

hako · #**133** December 8th, 2006, 08:59 PM

So what's the latest news on the game?

CelestialGoblyn · #**135** December 9th, 2006, 09:15 PM

Turn 13 sent, but i'm not sure if everyone sent me patched turns. It hosted with no trouble, but please upgrade eveyone, okay?

A year has passed since the God came to Avalon, and it has been good. The armies of Man have seen to it that the God's banner flies over the neighbouring lands, and trade has flourished side-by-side with magic and worship. Even the strange races nearby, worshippers of other Gods, were not too much cause for concern. But now...

The word is everywhere. Monks whisper it at refectories, tower guardsmen chatter about it in messhalls, bards embellish it with every song.

War has come to Man.

Caelians have poured over the frontier, but winged men with ice weapons have not aroused near so much comment as the giant woolly mammoths they ride. So far dozens of mammoths have been seen, and terrified militiamen from the fallen provinces testify to their near-invulnerability as they trample all beneath them.

Now the witches, castellans, and monks huddle together with the God in conference, even the crones coming out of their seclusion. Messengers race off to every corner of the kingdom, bearing orders and missives...

Mind Elemental said:
The forests of Avalon are vast, but not so vast as to support such herds. We suggest the Raven's Vale instead.

We also wonder who that one nation is...

I beg your pardon, but I had to choose between famine in the ranks of our belowed furry friends (called mammoths by mankind), or to find some new sources of green leaves or anything eatable. We had no intentions of roasting our mammoths, so we avoided Abyssian lands. The only path remaind possible were leading towards the forests of Avalon... They contain lots of food for peacefull herbivores , hence the name of forests. If your man decided to hunt down the herds, that's your misstake, since they tend to dislike being hunted, and in that case they will trample trough ranks of heavy infantry with ease.
DreamSlayer,
God of Mammoths!

C'tis wishes to assure Agartha that we have no intention of attacking your lands. We respect your religion of statue worship, and wish you a happy future of cave dwelling bliss.

Robed figures walked trough the sun-scorched plains, hoods pulled over their heads. Agarthan mystics were not just hiding from the light of the day. One of them was limping visibly and another could not walk without the aid of his staff.
"The lizards hiss about peace, Mynal."
One turned to the other.
"But after the first contact of our woodsmen with their scouts, the plagues began."

The mystic chased away a fly that tried to get under his cowl. The flies were drawn to the smell...
Of disease!

From Kajolm of Agartha to Lulal'kurdu of C'tis:
You speak of peace, yet every day we and all lands feel mark of the disease you carry in yourself. You are best to keep away from the borders, maintain a healthy distance.
We Agarthans are very slow to anger, we lived for tens of thousands years and will not provoke war without a good reason.
But if more chants will be offered to gods of noxious swamps, our sages predict nature itself will punish you much better than Agartha ever could.
You will reap what you sow, as many others that we saw trough the millenia.

"Intolerable!" exclaims Teva.
"The Arcoscephalians, not satisfied with merely imposing a strict levy on the poor populace in ##### ####, have started a war against nature itself!"
A note in front of him writes, in shaky handwriting: "A conflict took place in province ###, where forces of ########## battled against forces of Arcoscephale. The ########### army eventually prevailed."
"These acts will not go unprovoked. The nation of Arcoscephale will suffer."
After a few moments of thoughts, Teva ammends: "They'll suffer badly. Sadly we will only be able to attack them honorably after the promised 3 turn period."

I submitted turn 13, but like I said previously, I won't be able to make another turn for alteast 48 more hours, most probably 72 hours.
I hope you will wait for me.

EDIT: Apparently I didn't respond to your PM :X
The point was the you were recruiting Woodsman Blowpipes. Or as Pangaea saw it, a levy of the local population. (Which is what recruiting indies basically is)
