If YOURS=Yomi, don't you have to go through Arcos cap to get to Yomi's?
Unless stealthy buggers have made the trip? (& your love of stealth is well-known)
EA Oceania isn't stealthy though, is it?

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
Actualy I now own the ocean on both sides. Expect some heavy preaching soon.
To get there I had to talk Saurmatia to leaving a water province completely so I could take it with a scout (louckily he couldnt build PD) then I made the scout my prophet so I can build temples. Hiring that water mage into the new ocean got me a lab.
You will now feel the squeeze

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
By the way, I "oopsed".
I rarely announce the games Im in, and even rarer doing it as my moderator. It doesnt seem appropriate in this forum. Only the beta-test forum knew me as the games I was in.

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
This doesnt feel right now. There would be repercussions to me if I lost. There would be repercushions to me if I won.
options:
A) I go AI
B) we ask for a sub

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
I am happy with either course of action - it just occurred to me that we could invite llamabeast to step in as he is beating me soundly in another of Gandalf's hosted games. I have no idea if the beast would be interested.
I am not suggesting in any way here that beating me soundly is a mark of a good player or an average player  or the AI set to easy  |

Re: Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s
So far it looks like we will be asking for a sub.
Its a fun game. Small map, small ocean on each side.
Arcoscephale took a fast lead and about 2/3 of the map almost wiping out Sauromatia. During that conflict Oceania lost alot of troops and his pretender 3 times trying to reach the other ocean thru the battle-damaged provinces.
Then Sauromatia pushed Arcos back hard (gaining the 2/3 of the map). That allowed Yomi to surge forward (now working on getting 2/3 of the map. An arrangement betwen Oceania and Sauromatia allowed Oceania to reach the second ocean.
Its now turn 59 and Oceania is setup about as well as he is going to get.
Anyone interested?
note to new players
Its a great way to learn. If you lose, you can blame me for the rotten setup. If you win, you can crow extra for playing a setup you didnt pick.
