Well, fire gems may not be too good but you can always alchemize to S and since fetishes cost half as much as pearls it amounts to the same thing in terms of forging cost. Though I'd imagine it's a lot more of a micromanagement hassle than pearls.

You've also been making good use of some of those F gems using fire snakes as chaff. They're really not bad at all, with both a fire and poison attack. I've lost more than one Sidhe Lord to them when I lost track of which forces you were casting Haste on and didn't have both Elemental Fortitude and Resist Poison cast by the time they reached my thug.

It was actually kind of demoralizing seeing you summon them so quickly and realizing how many fetishes that indicated you had.

Ermor hereby declares war on the next nation (hereafter to be known as 'nation of bastards') that wishes for Armageddon. As such an act will result in Ermor unleashing their undead horde(1) upon this nation of bastards, leading to their very swift defeat(2) and ultimate retribution(3) for the, literally, fallen warriors of Ermor.


Notes

(1) Ermor are only able to unleash a single undead horde upon the nation of bastards, as Ermor does not possess anywhere near enough resources to unleash undead hordes. We apologise in advance for any feeling of disappointment the nation of bastards may experience at the lack of Ermor's undead hordes, or indeed the underwhelming size of Ermor's single undead horde.

(2) The speed at which the nation of bastards will be destroyed is entirely dependent on outrageous good fortune for Ermor, and total incompetent decision making by the leaders of said nation of bastards. Ermor dissolves itself in advance of any responsibility with regards having to positively contribute in any way to the defeat of said nation of bastards.

(3) While the wishing of Armageddon will undoubtedly lead to the swift defeat of the nation of bastards at the hands of the undead horde of Ermor, the resulting arrival of Armageddon will instantly null and void any agreement between Ermor and said nation of bastards, regarding the latter's swift defeat at the hands of Ermor's undead horde, and the temporary or indefinite postponement of Ermor's ultimate retribution. (clause 1.1)


'Thank You' for your time in reading this death threat. Failure to read this death threat, and thereafter any attempts to claim ignorance of it, shall not in any way be acceptable as an excuse for trying to prevent the unleashing of Ermor's undead horde upon any nation of bastards that decides to wish for Armageddon.


Clauses

1.1 - "Should all of Ermor's mages yet again disappear into the unstable and cavernous Ermor Andreas Fault, then all agreements shall instantly be cancelled and / or suspended, until such time that Ermor can once again fulfil its contractual obligations to destroy the offending nation of bastards."

Game delayed 16 hours by player request.

It's the late game folks, so the required thinking and MM time are both starting to get very high. I may be suggesting the move to a 72 hour hosting schedule soon. Any opinions anyone has on this would as always be appreciated

Abysia will join Ermor in the crushing of any such nation that wishes for armageddon, not that it really hurts Abysia, but because we want to crush some people (or more likely fish). I won't mind a 72h scheduale, but i'm also able to keep up with the current scheduale. but considering that several of the last turns have been delayed multiple times, maybe we are ready for it.

Really? I find my required thinking and MM time goes down with each armageddon. I'm about ready to go back to 24 hour hosting.

Tir na n'Og hereby declares that we are in fact the nation of bastards that wished for Armageddon. We challenge you to respond!

LoL, I did actually check earlier out of curiosity, and I had more troops and mages on turn 23 (Ermor's peak) than I do now. The past 50+ turns hasn't been kind to the Ermorians at all

So, you're going AI? Sorry, couldn't resist.

But yeah, same story here. Fun facts about Tir:

* Roughly the same number of provinces as commanders

* Capitol province has an income of 14 gold (no unrest)

* No gem gens + no gold = no chance

By the time Machaka's unkillable black sorcerers get around to finishing me all I'll have left is my army of sea trolls (who are holding up quite well). Sadly there will be no mages left to lead them.

I am okay with 24hr hosting as well!

In this game my turns have never took longer than 45 mins to do and as far as fever fetishes go, I really do not have alot, I doubt if I even have 1/3 the fever fetishes that other nations have clams which are far better.

I would be only too happy to finish Tir Na Nog off, sadly any time I attack him with anything, armies, SC's mages and all combined, a couple of sidhe lords turn up and slaughter everyone!
