Yeah, it's kind of a funny thing, I mean it's not as if he put up Burden of Time, or Astral Corruption or something that directly harms you, but the more experienced players often act as if their mother's virtue has been seriously and repeatedly brought into question or something (when the Forge is put up).

I feel the same way as you in that putting up a non-harming global is not an aggressive action, but on the other hand I'm not so sure that dispelling it should be considered outright hostile either, especially given the Forge's power. I mean, it's not really on the same level as an attack, right? If Dominions were real I imagine there'd be a lot of politcal manoeuvring and spin/counterspin, but not actual war. Like CIA behind the scenes 'fighting', but not official political war. Kinda like finding an enemy's stealthed unit inside your borders.

Just my take.

Sending stealthed thugs behind my borders would definitely qualify as a hostile action in my book and the NAP would immediately be void.

Interesting, there's another game thread, I think it's Troubling Times, here on this forum, where the same thing happened, and a couple of players took it pretty lightly. Of course they'd already declared war, and were waiting for the NAP to expire, but still.....yeah, I also think it is a break! Shows how impressionable I am from what I read.

EDIT: The game I was referring to was actually A Song of Ice and Fire

EDIT 2nd: Also, has our sub checked in yet?

Ladies and gentlemen, I salute you.

I'm back on Master Blaster and this time I'm going to sub Meursy. Hopefully I will be more efficient with Abysia than I was with Ulm

Just sent my email to Debaser for registration. See you soon on the battlefield !

Added 8 hours for TC, because I'm worried he might miss turn.

Maybe he lost morale after the last turn. Those TC Tartarians are ****ing fragile

I invite TC to admit this war is lost for him. And because I am generous, I will offer peace for the very underestimated price of 12 provinces that TC's armies will have to free ASAP. Hey, that's a deal !

Either that or... endure my wrath

And... what's the situation on the other provinces of the world ?

Congrats to the winner then !

It has been interesting to play those few turns with Abysia in late game. Never tried befored (never played Abysia at all). There are some interesting challenges with this nation.

And thanks to Meursy for his insights about gameplay, very instructive also.

See you later and elsewhere, gentlemen !

Here is my last turn. That construction site is ridiculously powerful and right next to my capital. It really helped me. I think next game I play will be on a wraparound map with no overpowered sites.
