A replacement player is needed for the Elvysyar Blades, due to Alneyan having not enough time to play PBW turns. The game uses Adamant Mod 0.13.xx. His empire is rather large, in a galaxy of large empires.

I am actually having a very tough time coping with late-game Empires, as it seems to take too much time for very little happening (a bit more in-depth explanation can be found in a related thread). It has been so for most of August and September, so it isn't a temporary feeling either.

The Empire in question has the second highest score, and is definitively in the top three. You are partnered with Fyron (another of the powers in this game), and at war with Asmala, the third power of this game. Your economy is doing well, although you are buying minerals from Fyron, and Stellar Manipulation ships are a dime the dozen for this Empire. You also have a powerful colonial Empire, with weak neighbours on most of your borders (the exception being Fyron).

In short, the Blades are in a healthy shape, with a strong economy (with outside help), enough research for my tastes, and are engaged in a long offensive (I think, but may be wrong, that they won't have to fight a defensive war).

Somone PLEASE!!!!


This is a good game so far, I might be a small empire, but I have an interesting war/border scermish going on and the game is at a full stop!

I am now doing a partial turn to kick next turn in, and will likely withdraw afterwards.

The Blades need someone with leadership and charisma to lead them! Powerful economy, decent warfleet, very high combat modifiers, strong Stellar Manipulation; you are a major power (in the top three), and you know it. Put this potential to good use, and you will rule over the galaxy! I have never been too know to advertise my Empires though.

Alneyan has now withdrawn from the game, so a replacement is needed! *in Peter Griffin voice* Come oonn!

I'll give it a go, although I've got very little PBW late game experience. Maybe taking over such a well developed empire is the way to get it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

The Official Faith Warriors of the Blades give you their blessings! If you would like information regarding the status of the Elvysiar Blades, do drop me a mail (alneyan[AT]yahoo[DOT]fr).

A few words: this game is played with a mod, but the actual endeavours of my Empire are close enough to the "regular" game. These include Stellar Manipulation, Atmosphere ConVersion and other similar ways for the economy, and special designs for the war (I cannot speak of them, as the Enemy, Lord of the Rings, Asmala the Fiend, may be eavesdropping on us). Your newest Kingslayer design should give you an edge, but be warned these weapons can be countered once you show them. The same goes true for the Wailing Lady newest designs.

Thanks again!

OK and thanks for the blessing! (and offered hand-over) - I'll apply to join the game directly. Once I've taken a good look around I'll certainly get back to you!

Ok. You'll have to apply to the game to take over the empire. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

You will need to get Adamant Mod. Installing it will be a multi-step process.

1)
a)
If you have Fyron's Quadrant Mod Deluxe installed, download this file:
Adamant Mod Full (http://www.spaceempires.net/files/seiv/mods/Adamant Full 0.13.xx.exe)

Next, go into the FQM Deluxe\Pictures\System folder. Copy the images from there (except possibly for the 3 Starmap.bmp files, one in each folder, if you prefer the stock game Starmap.bmp) into the stock game Pictures\System folder. The files in this folder itself and each of its subfolders need to be copied. This will allow the images to be used by both mods without having duplicate images.

b)
If you do not have FQM Deluxe installed, download this file:
Adamant Mod Full (http://www.spaceempires.net/files/seiv/mods/Adamant Nebulae 0.13.xx.exe)

2)
Execute the file (it is a self-extracting RAR file) you downloaded in part 1). Point it to the base SE4 folder. It is designed to extract into the folder "Adamant" by default.

3)
Download and install this patch for the mod.
Adamant Mod Patch 0.13.39 (http://www.spaceempires.net/home/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=419)

4)
Download and install the 5 latest Full packs of the Image Mod (assuming you have no Image Mod installed).
http://imagemod.spaceempires.net/

This should be sufficient... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
