Thanks for their excellent effort - in spite of our recent resurgence, I don't think I have much of a chance of doing better .

Bleh.. I dont want you out of the game. I'm still hoping you will accept my offer. But if not I'll soon have the largest army you have seen yet assembled very soon with plenty of evocation to back it up. And it will be heading directly to your capital. No more pussy footing around.

When you knock a player out of convention - which you have done, unless I can beat this major army of yours, and probably even then - it's highly unreasonable to expect them to stay around in order to help you win.

In fact, I've never seen it happen. People either stop playing, or stick around long enough to do you as much damage as possible. The game is enough work to play that no-one wants to spend time doing turns unless they're playing to win.

[PsiSoldier]

Sigh.. I would have hoped you might have seen it as a chance for you to still be part of the victory yourself. In the end it will likely come down to R'lyeh kicking my *** once everyone else is out which is rapidly beginning to happen. Mictlan and its amphibious Rain warriors was probably R'lyeh's greatest threat in this game and I have effectively removed that threat paving the way to a victory for R'leyh / Man.

I have no illusions here, I may be able to largely dominate the land but in the end I will have no way to take the sea without heavy use of magic. And even then its doubtfull. With Ermor and Agartha gone I have no doubt that Ulm, Man and R'leyh will all soon rival me on land. I dont really know what Pythium and Marginon are doing (If Pythium hasnt been flat out staling every turn) and I guess Bogorus is just trying to hang in there. I suppose I'll start trying to gobble up some of the Agartha Ermor AI Provinces soon before they are all gone. But my point was that I saw the offer to you as being more than just You = my slave and more of an equal rights kind of deal. Though I would have certainly liked to have taken some credit.

But as I said from the beginning if you don't see it that way I'll just take you out and soldier on the best that I can, thick headed barbarians that we T'ien Ch'i are...

Is this server being upgraded to the new patch?

It seems strange that you did not even mention the conquerors of Ermor, Ulm and Pangaea. Also, Bogarus is huge, for your information, and getting bigger.

[PsiSoldier]

I did mention Ulm right along with R'lyeh and Man. Bogarus's status however I was unaware about. From reading other posts in this thread I was under the impression that Bogarus was not doing too great, at least given the weak nature of their troops. As for Pan, it sounds as if Ermor managed to cause some damage there before they were finally defeated.

Ive not witnessed any of Ulm or Pangaeas battles with Ermor or Agartha though Only R'lyeh, man and Bogorus's battles. Although from Man's reports most of the credit goes to Ulm. I dont have quite the extensive network of scouts and spies that some of the other nations like Man posses so my info may be a bit sketchy.

[Lingchih]

Yes, most of the credit goes to Ulm. They did the heavy lifting.

But, hey, Pan is not bad.

[AreaOfEffect]

You need to go no further then the Hall of Fame to see the damage that Pangaea has inflicted. They do deserve some credit.

Is the server down? I cannot connect.

yep, it's down, guessing someone tried to connect after patching.
