BERING (Running)

[PashaDawg]

Hello:

This game is on the map I finished recently, called �Bering�. It is a map for 7 players (2 water, 5 land). The map has preset starting positions that are randomly assigned. You can find the map here: Bering map thread (http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/threads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=621496&page=0&view=collap sed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1)

The settings are as follows:

Play by email (not a server game)
Era: Early
Map: Bering
Mods: Conceptual Balance (Full)
Indies: 7
Research: Default
Victory condition: There will be 7 victory point provinces (one in each capital). The player who controls 4 out of 7 will be the winner.
Graphs: on
Gold/Resources: default
Renaming on
HOF: 15
Turn hosting schedule: Turns 1 - 15, Daily; Turn 16 - End, 3/week on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (deadline at 9 pm Boston time).
Number of players: 7 (2 water, 5 land)

Players:

1. Pashadawg: Agartha
2. djo: Lanka
3. Aezeal: Niefelhiem
4. Charshep: Atlantis
5. GrungeBringer: Sauro
6. named: R'lyeh
7. DryaUnda: Hinnom

Jolly note: I think it is very fun when players spice things up with role playing. Trash talk, witty banter, yarnspinning and crazy choices are encouraged. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Thanks.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

Niefel plz

as usually I'd like to go for 15 hof spots (I'd love so much more)

PS the hosting will be quickhost I hope so if pplz are fast the game is faster too ?

[PashaDawg]

Hi Aezeal:

15 HOF spots would work.

The game would not be quickhosted. I host by hand the old fashioned way (with an automator script). So, pretty much the hostings will be in the evening when turns are due. Although sometimes on the weekend, etc., we can squeeze out a few extra turns if folks are eager beavers.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

ow nice anothter CBM.. sweetish might actually suit Niefel to get a cheaper bless chassis http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif triple blessed giants?

[PashaDawg]

You're a crazy Dutchman! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

[charshep]

Nice map! Any room for a n00b? I've played a handful of SP games and was involved in an MP game for a few months before the servers went down. I played Atlantis in that one. It seemed like a challenging nation to play but I'd like to try them again.

[GrudgeBringer]

I'd like Sauro if you have room if its CBM....I'm a real NOOB tho so if you feel that I am outclassed i won't take offense

[PashaDawg]

You're certainly welcome to play, Charshep. Maybe another noob can play the other water slot, so you won't be an obvious target. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[PashaDawg]

You're welcome, too, GrungeBringer.

[namad]

i'll take r'lyeh i've never actually played a MP game although i signed up for a couple others this week

[PashaDawg]

Great. Welcome, namad.

One slot left. It would be good if we could get one more player with a bit more experience to balance things out a bit. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[charshep]

Great! Two quick questions. Do I need the mod installed on my box or does only the host need it? Also, when do you want our pretenders by?

[PashaDawg]

Good questions, Charshep.

You need to have the complete mod enabled when you create your pretender. That is essential, or else we'll need to restart.

The game is filling up very fast! So, maybe we'll start this Sunday night? We'll see. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Pasha

[Foodstamp]

I really love the look of the Bering map, so I am interested in playing if there is a spot left. Nation TBA!

[AlgaeNymph]

I want Hinnom!

...

Wait, did somebody take the last spot before I did?

[charshep]

Where can I get the mod?

[PashaDawg]

Welcome Foodstamp.

Sorry DryaUnda. Foodstamp elbowed his way in. I'll keep you in mind in case someone drops out before we get started.

The mod is here: CB Mod Thread (http://www.shrapnelcommunity.com/threads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=624209&page=0&view=collap sed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1)

[PashaDawg]

Okay. Now that we have a full roster, I'd ask that each player send me a PM with his/her email address (unless you know I already have it). I will then send you mine.

Once you have my email, you can send me your pretender file. It will be a .2h file in your newlords folder. I will send further instructions via email, etc.

Thanks.

Will

[charshep]

Getting a core dump after enabling and trying to create a new game:

N�got gick fel!
name2spell: no such spell!!
N�got gick fel!
name2spell: no such spell!!

Sorry to be such a n00b but any ideas what's wrong? The mod logo shows up correctly in the corner of the splash screen.

[charshep]

BTW, I'm on Linux. Don't know if that matters or not (I hope not). Files look fine after unzipping them.

[quantum_mechani]

Are you running the latest patch?

[charshep]

*Just* noticed that I'm not. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/redface.gif Installing it now.

[Foodstamp]

I'm going to give my spot up to DryaUnda. This map looks like a lot of fun but for the life of me I cannot decide on a nation. I will send him a PM.

[djo]

I'm going to take Lanka.

[PashaDawg]

Ok, Foodstamp. Maybe next time, Foodstamp. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

DryaUnda: You're in if still interested.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

Hinnom and Lanka... and 2 water races who can't help control them early on...

this will be nice http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif... early game bloodfest

[Aezeal]

I've got a pretender when, where, what should be in the mail description etc etc etc

to start with I mailed my pretender with subject dominions - bering - niefelheim pretender to

ourhostsnickname@gmail.com

will that do?

Oy, oy. Those two plus Niefelheim and Sauro. It seems you're up to a challanging early game with Agartha Pasha. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Have fun.

[djo]

Aezeal said:
Hinnom and Lanka...



...and Niefelheim, and Sauromatia is no early slouch either.

This game resembles an SP game I have going--monsters vs. Sauromatia.

[PashaDawg]

Bah! We are not afraid!! Agartha will rule. The pale ones will destroy our enemies with wise cunning. They'll be cryin' for their mamas.

[Aezeal]

well thanks for pointing that out.. I'll be sure to send a Jotun scout to the swamps to let them know where the Hydra's should go to http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Let's be honest.. all those races are strong early game but Hinnom and Lanka have a much stronger end game.. if you live to mid game then it'll be between those 2 races.

Anyway Hinnom is just a bunch of newbie giants, an impurity of the race and should be destroyed.. and I don't care much for Demons either despoilers of the world, just not natural, a lot of them are to big too.. more fake giants.

Vote Aezeal of the Niefel party for GOD-election: for 1 race of giants to rule the lesser humanoid races.

[JimMorrison]

O.O

Arrrrrrgh! A game on a brand spanking new and gorgeous Pasha map, running with full CBM, and I miss the signups! I'll get you yet, Red Baron! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/redface.gif

[Aezeal]

lol I'm in 2 full CBM games atm http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[PashaDawg]

Hello:

I have email addresses for djo, Aezeal, Charshep, and Grungbringer. I have an older email for DryaUnda, which I assume is still okay.

I need namad's email still.

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Hello:

I just sent out an email to all players. Please send me your pretenders. I hope to start the game tonight.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

I hope so too, you should have mine.. awaiting the first turn http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[anticipatient]

im with jim here.

damn red baron.

[GrudgeBringer]

I sent in the pretender...I think you said you will send back an e-mail letting me know you got it.

you might also think about just putting in a post of who has sent in stuff so we get a feel for when we can look for a turn ect (but I think you have all this under control already so pardon my NOOB suggestions if they have already been covered like 100 times!!)

[PashaDawg]

Turn 1 is out.

Deadline is Monday night at 9:00 p.m. Boston time.

Let the fun begin!

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Turn 2 is out.

Deadline is Tuesday night at 9:00 pm Boston time.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

hmmm anyone willing to donate me money?

[djo]

I think someone must have found the "Hoburg Casino" site.

[namad]

problem with the turn2's getting in on time?

also what the heck is hoburg casino?

[PashaDawg]

Turn 3 is out.

Deadline is Wednesday nite.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

post more http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[PashaDawg]

Turn 6 is out. Deadline is Saturday night.

Pasha

[namad]

anyone care to trade for some intelligence reports http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif ? (who is where)

[Aezeal]

I'm on the land, where are you?

[PashaDawg]

Turn 7 is out. Deadline is Sunday night at 9pm Boston time.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

faster turns in the weekends pplz http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[djo]

You youngsters...I'm running Dominions 3 on a hand-built Babbage machine made of recycled toothpicks and bottle caps. It takes me three hours just to input the turn, never mind play it. I transmit my orders back to Pasha over a disused telegraph line. The dots and dashes hit the only Atari 800 connected to the Internet. It runs a ping server that forwards the dots and dashes to Pasha, who is kind enough to run an sh script (not tcsh, not bash, nothing fancy like that) which makes the final translation back to a .2h file.

I hope to upgrade next year to an awk script (if I can get awk to compile on my Babbage machine; I'm spending my vacation on it).

So all in all, I'm comfortable staying with the initially advertised and agreed-upon pace.

[Aezeal]

might be a reason to take you out first.. I'll talk with the others about it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

[djo]

There are times when I am picking splinters out of my fingers and wondering which bit did I flip this time that I think it would be a kindness.

But you'll have to find me first...

[PashaDawg]

Turn 8 is out.

Deadline is Monday night.

Pasha

[namad]

hopefully by turn9 I will know the location of every player, then again I bare no ill will towards djo http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[djo]

That's ok, I know where you are.

[namad]

by babbage do you mean the old video game and computer parts store babbages? i remember buying a 2meg's of ram upgrade there when i was a kid heh

also hey i wasn't threatening you I was just saying I could find you but that ... if anything... I AM THE ONE TAKING TURNS MOST SLOWLY! yes that's it! it's been me all along !

[djo]

The old computer store "Babbage's" was named after Charles Babbage, a 19th century Englishman who designed/invented mechanical calculation devices that were the forerunners of today's computers. They were meant to do things like calculate tables of logarithms and other tables of data important for engineering and ship navigation. You couldn't actually "program" them (the "program" they ran was determined by how they were put together), but they were revolutionary computation devices for their time.

So I was joking that I was running Dominions on a very old and slow mechanical machine. (On the other hand, some people build them as hobbies today!)

[djo]

And since you are playing one of two water races, it's easy to figure out where you are. Don't worry, apes don't swim very well.

[PashaDawg]

Turn 9 is out. Deadline is Tuesday night.

Thanks.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

pplz I need a lil extension till late wednesday evening due to evening shift (and I'll stay over at my work after that)

[PashaDawg]

That's fine. I have your turn for turn 9 already, and so I don't expect the extension to cause much of a delay.

Pasha

[namad]

anyone care to trade me earth air or fire gems? I have water or astral to trade? specific needs will vary based on what i can get but mostly increments of five..

[PashaDawg]

Turn 10 is out.

Deadline is Wednesday night (with the understanding that Aezeal might need an extension).

Pasha

[namad]

i can trade gems at better than 1:1 ratio depending on what supply you have (i need some earth/fire/air) so you might be able to get a favorable deal if you can give me exactly what i want... since if i get no trades at all i'll have to alchemize pearls

[PashaDawg]

Turn 11 is out. Deadline is Thursday night.

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Turn 14 is out. Deadline's Sunday.

[Aezeal]

Please give me a little extension ... I'll be able to do my turn in about 6-7 hours

[PashaDawg]

Hello:

We have now reached turn 15. We'll switch to the 3 turns / week schedule (Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays).

So, this turn will be due on Tuesday night (9:00 pm Boston time).

Pasha

[namad]

right when things are heating up too!

[PashaDawg]

Okay. Everyone got their turns in within less than 24 hours. So... might as well host.

Turns are technically due by Thursday, but I'll gladly host if folks get their turns in sooner.

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Turn 17 is out.

Turns are due on Friday.

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Turn 18 is out.

Deadline is Sunday.

Pasha

[charshep]

Looks like Mazirian wll be the first to fall, probably in the next couple of turns. Just wanted to say "thanks" everyone! Great game R'lyeh! I'll have to do a little practicing offline to figure out how to deal with those Mind Lords.

See you guys next game.

[djo]

Let's see how this new forum-thingy works...

(Ouch, that text is small...good thing that is an already reported issue.)


Wow, I didn't notice that Atlantis was racing Lanka to the bottom. My sympathies.


What I think we all want to know, though, is: is Pasha :) or :cry: with the new forum's palette of smilies?

[edit] And what exactly are all those "bookmarks" for?? Some kind of social networking that I am too old to understand?

[PashaDawg]

:party:

djo: I did not like them at first. But, then I noticed that I get all of the old ones plus several new. Nice new pic of Dusty.

I don't like the silhouettes of the "cool" people in the ".com.unity". Who the heck are they?? :eek::eek::eek::doh:

Okay. Turn 20 is out.

Deadline is Thursday.

Pasha

[namad]

it was a fun war though atlantis... there was all that cat and mouse stuff and then you slaughtered a large number of my most powerful and expensive commanders... but my income advantage just was too much for you to take forever (pssst please don't tell anyone just how many of my commanders died)

[Aezeal]

hurry up pplz I wanna play the next turn :D!!!!:eek:

[PashaDawg]

Turn 21 is out. You're all such eager beavers. How could I not host? :)

Turns are due on Friday due to the out-of-schedule hosing.

Pasha

[namad]

anyone selling a selection of construction4 items?

pm me with availabilities and pricing..

i can only pay with earth water astral but i am interested in buying items which may or may not require other gems

[Aezeal]

Let's keep rolling :D I got a latre shift friday but I'd love to do my turn before that :D

[namad]

host?

[Aezeal]

yeah it's been a while since last turn :D no more waiting unless a delay was asked for.. if they don't ask for one they don't get one I say.

[djo]

Please note that due to the early hosting this week, we're still ahead of our normal schedule.

I have to sympathize with our host; it's a lot easier to remember to host when the schedule matches that of all the other games you're involved in.

[Aezeal]

true true btu I'm so eager to see what next turn will bring :D

[djo]

Actually, I am too, for probably the same reason.

[PashaDawg]

Hello:

Turn 22 is out.

Sorry for the delay in hosting the turn. I was distracted by a dinner party. :)

If folks are eager, I'd be happy to host the next turn on Sunday night.

Pasha

[namad]

anyone want to sell me some gems? (feel free to PM me with type of gem and price) also.. anyone want to sell/trade me some nature gems?

[PashaDawg]

Turn 23 is out. Deadline is Tuesday.

Pasha

[GrudgeBringer]

I am formally renouncing my NAP with the nation of Hinnom. This (turn 23) is turn 1 of my required 3 turn warning.

Three Toed Pete, Prophet to the People of Sauromatia

[Aezeal]

aw sucks to be Hinnom

[PashaDawg]

Turn 24 is out.

Deadline is Friday due to the delay.

Pasha

[namad]

can anyone forge amulets of the fish? and then trade them to me? I'm aware that likely no one will do this so perhaps i could simply provide a premium payment?

[Aezeal]

turn?

[Aezeal]

ouch this has GOT to hurt

On the right side: 5 Niefel Jarls with their subjects 30ish Niefel Giants, also backup with a Jotun scout/prophet and a priest (lvl2). The brave giants have also enlisted the fabled archer in white led by a pegasus rider in their army.

On the other side, the armies of darkness and demons.

About 25 PD in fodder as a screen in front of and between the demons, all misled markata's wanting to give their lives for the false god. Then some 50ish evil demons and half a dozen evil mages and their evil summons, 3 HUGE lumber constructs and several vile clockwork horrors.

The battle starts and right away the mercs move a bit to the front, not able to stay still as commanded. The giants, clinging to tactics stay behind their bravest leaders while the prophet blesses the entire army.. blessed giants, what can stop them.

But then the false prophet also blesses the already fearsome demon, they now seem very speedy, able to block every attack AND with improved stamina. A dark moment for the forces of good.

The next turns all the priests of good banish, doing some damage on the demons also destroying the undead summoned by the evil mages.

While the brave Jarls defend their kin with banishments the evil army advances, waves upon waves of the crazed, fanatic and in the end completely stupid markata advance towards the banishing Jarls. The Jarls are to busy banishing the demons and probably haven't even SEEN the stupid critters so their troops, the now blessed niefel giants advance to intercept the markata horde. While the markata are being slaughtered the Demons also advance behind this wall of small bodies. They overwhelm the leader of the mercenaries and kill some of the archers who then cowardly flee. After the Markata's have been vanquished (the giants all with tears in their eyes for they know the silly little monkeys do not know how they where misled, and now they face a useless death, not doing a single point of damage.) the real battle begins. The demons try to swarm the giants from the sides (in the centre the last of the dying markata fall on a huge pile of small dead bodies.) On the right flank the battle is especially brutal for there the clockwork horrors swipe their razorsharp talons at the frostgiants. The most combative of the Jarls move to help their kin while the other half keeps on banishing and doing major damage along with the priest and the prophet. A cleansing chime of a bell is heard from time to time and when heard some demons suddenly stop existing. The battle is fierce but in the end the giants have the longest breath, the cold is getting to the demons and one after another they fall before the huge and powerfull blows of the famed Jotunlongswords. The last of the demons fall before the holy giants of Jotun and the demon leaders flee the field running in panic while the valliant giants pursue.

A glorious day for the forces of good, but the giants also have losses. 3 of their comerades lie dead on the field. A huge cairn is erected and the giants are surrounded by the blades of fallen enemies. HUge numbers of demon falchions are put into the ground around the bodies inside the cairn. The prophet blesses the cairn so the fallen in this already epic battle will not be forgotten. May they rest in peace while the demons find a new hell to be tormented in by even greater evils.

[GrudgeBringer]

Ahhhhhhh, Yes, Your Bard does sing a good accounting of the battle.

If he enters my Kingdom with more tales of Glory and Valor, I will slaughter 3 Boars, and have mead fermented in his honor.

[djo]

Depressing. I shouldn't read the forum before looking at my turn...

[Aezeal]

What canI say.. to say I'm sorry I'm ridding the world of the plague of your false prophet and it's demonic blooddrinking followers would be a lie... so I guess... DIE DIE DIE would be more fitting :D

I wonder about one thing though.. my report says your 7 commanders n mages didn't die but afaik they can't retreat to the castle... are they gone or do you still have them?

Nasty thingabout giants is that while they should rockat sieges it actually takes a hell of a long time cus there are so few... I guess you'll be summoning more lumber constructs and mechanical men.

Another thing.. did you actually patrol with the whole army all those turns I've been hanging around the capitol? (I though I was smart taking a few provs but not all I thaught you'd think I'd take those last 2 before taking the capitol)

[Aezeal]

PS demons and undead are pretty much screwed now you can mass produce cleaning bells and get 2 of themon commanders :D for only 5 watergems they deliver VERY high damage to demons. Of course their use is very situational but i think I'll mention in the cbm thread that 10 gems might be a better price.

[djo]

I wonder about one thing though.. my report says your 7 commanders n mages didn't die but afaik they can't retreat to the castle... are they gone or do you still have them?

They are gone.

Nasty thingabout giants is that while they should rockat sieges it actually takes a hell of a long time cus there are so few... I guess you'll be summoning more lumber constructs and mechanical men.

Lanka isn't so bad. Some of the other monkey nations have the 700 defense "Crystal City" (or whatever it is). Try taking one of those down with nothing but normal human troops!


Another thing.. did you actually patrol with the whole army all those turns I've been hanging around the capitol? (I though I was smart taking a few provs but not all I thaught you'd think I'd take those last 2 before taking the capitol)

You did the right thing, in my opinion. I'm not going to give all my past plans away, but let's say that I was hoping to have the big battle while I still had a PD screen. Lot of good that did me!

[Aezeal]

you going AI? (your situation would be plenty of cause for that since I don't think you can do much the AI could also do. Of course I might completely not see some tricks up your sleeve but I'm thinking your last turns will be boring...)

[djo]

I must have a high tolerance for boredom, because I always drive my nations all the way into the ground. On the other hand, the turns get really quick to do.

[Aezeal]

yeah but if you can't recruit and lost about half your mages... lol you really want to see 40 giants crush your beloved pretender (something female right)...

I'm thinking you are up to something... I'll order some more giants towards your castle just in case. More cleansing bells too :D

Ding dong and a demon dies :D

[PashaDawg]

Next turn is out.

Deadline is Tuesday, if folks can play their turns that fast.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

you'll have mine in in a few min

[Aezeal]

/me kicks the pplz who didn't submit the turn yesterday

Nice one to take all those provinces with your scouts.. I doubt it'll last though. I'm pretty sure one of those provinces will have an insane PD when my Jarls knock at the door ... but I think that will only increase their kills and won't save your province :D

[djo]

Nice one to take all those provinces with your scouts..

Just doing my part to further your Dominions education.

You'd be surprised how often I get away with that. You would not be surprised how little difference it ever makes. Still, petty revenge is better than no revenge at this stage.

[Aezeal]

I'm most surprised by what your number of troops in the stats is doing though.. suddenly very very high and you can't recruit.. I'd like to learn more about that

[namad]

a little more time submitting turns a little less time checking graphs!

[PashaDawg]

Next turn is out.

Deadline is Tuesday.

[namad]

anyone forging boosters? or amulet of the fish? i could use some earth or nature boosters or an amulet of fish or some other stuff

[Aezeal]

I could use a dwarven hammer to be honest.

[Aezeal]

my turn is in I hope... I wouldn't mind doing an extra turn in the weekend to make up for lost turns

[Aezeal]

its not me we are waiting on I hope cus I'm sure I end the turn.. if it's me tell me ASAP

[djo]

Remember Pasha's email?


I am taking a long weekend to sit a rural lake that is soooooo rural that I will have no access to the internet or even a cell phone. So, the next turn hosting will be on Tuesday (assuming I host on Thursday).

[Aezeal]

no don't remember that but explains a lot :D

[PashaDawg]

Turn 28 is out.

Deadline is Thursday night.

Pasha

[namad]

desperately seeking to purchase an amulet of the fish

[Aezeal]

Namad I'm moving my air/water mage to a lab now.. if I can forge it then I'll contact you next turn. It'll be expensive or needs to be a trade for a usefull item (dwarven hammer!)

[djo]

The new turn was run with 3.20, if anyone didn't realize it.

Never trust the giants! Those are my parting words of wisdom. Or bitterness. Or stupidity. Or stupid bitter wisdom?

See you in the next game...thanks, Pasha, for hosting!

[PashaDawg]

Thanks for playing, djo.

[Aezeal]

What did trust have to do with it? We never NAPPED, hell you didn't even contact me before your dangerous demons fouled the sights on my borders.

Lanka is down.. a dangerous threat erased... all rejoice

[djo]

I was referring to the universal trust among all monkeykind, that all living things ought to respect each other's sovereign boundaries. Too late I realized that the giants did not have fur, they were wearing furs. Alas, that oversight made all the difference.

The idea of a walking Ice Age calling some poor defenseless monkey-demons "dangerous" is, I trust, as clearly absurd to everyone else who may be next on the trampling list as it was to us.

[PashaDawg]

Next turn is out.

Deadline is Sunday.

[namad]

i would like to trade for dwarven hammers

[namad]

i would like to trade for a small supply of death gems...

ideally i'd like to trade earth gems but i also might be willing to part with gems of another type.. PM me with demands

[PashaDawg]

Turn 30 is out.

Deadline is Tuesday night.

Pasha

[PashaDawg]

Turn 31 is out. Deadline is Thursday night.

Pasha

[namad]

paying 2earth gems per 1death gem (until my demand is met)

[Aezeal]

namad if you can forge something for those gems (which I can't so they are useless to me) I might be willing to send you some.

Or I could forge something for you too :D

what do you want.. deathgems and forging death magic are things I can do :D

[namad]

i was going to cast dark knowledge :-p
and i can't forge really any earth items until i get earth boosters which i can't forge...

i mean come on... 2:1 is a good deal someone take it!


hell for a very small supply i might even do 3:1 just to get off at least one dark knowledge and pray i get lucky

[Aezeal]

Next turn I'm willing to send you 5 if you send me 15 earthgems first... I'm not quite sure what I can do with the damn things but whatever, maybe someone can forge a or 2 hammer for me.

[PashaDawg]

Turn 32 is out. Deadline is Sunday night.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

let's do it sooner :D

[PashaDawg]

Turn 33 is out. Deadline is Tuesday.

Pasha

[namad]

uhm what does looming hell do?

[Aezeal]

if you are in his dominion troops can turn on their commander (and that troop + a devil then attack him)

My troops and a devil luckily have near 0 chance of killing a Jarl but it cost me a 150 gp giant this turn.

[Aezeal]

R'lyeh could you and your pearls dispell that global???

[Aezeal]

R'lyeh could you and your pearls dispell that global???

Ow and NEXT TURN PLZ :D

[namad]

you just said that the global couldn't possibly hurt you

[namad]

is anyone interested in selling me a skull staff, or thistle mace, or earth boots, or perhaps other boosters? I have lots of earth gems and several gems of other types with which to pay? PM me a list of prices and boosters you can forge?

[Aezeal]

I'm not interested in gems really just in things I can't make myself.. no reason to help you with magic diversity for only a few gems I can't really use..

if you dispell that global I'll give you whatever booster you want though :D

If you give me an air booster (the helmet) then you can get a booster from me.

PS I didn't say the spell couldn't hurt me, I said the troops couldn't kill the commander.. the commander still killed a 150 gp giant which is reason enough to want it gone.

[Aezeal]

Can we do the turn today so Sauromatia can get his turn in before he leaves?

Grudge if you still plan on leaving totally then let me know but I'd not do it.

[GrudgeBringer]

No I will stay on, I leave at 4 am weds morning and will be back 11 PM Sunday night so If we can get a turn in today or tonight I will check and get it in before I head to the airport, otherwise I will just ride it out and be back Sunday.

Every other game is down to at least the 20th it looks like a s LLama is out of town and the server is messed up (at least thats what I hear) but we get ours direct from Pasha so maybe it will work out...

See ya all Monday:)

[PashaDawg]

Turn 34 is out.

Hopefully, Grudgebringer will be able to play the turn before he leaves. In any case, we'll put the game on hold while he is away.

Pasha

[GrudgeBringer]

I would like an extension over the weekend. I've not asked many so I'd like a 2 turn one now :D. I can send in a new turn tonight or tomorrow morning (unless there is going to happen a lot) and then I can play again monday very late.

Can that be done?

Due to the treachery off the Frost Giants, the Ancient Ones of Agartha have notified the Giant Scum that their NAP will terminate in 3 turns. Their cold castles shall burn!

a few bubbles rise from the depths of the sea...

clearly full of a terrible malevolent intent

speaking is for humanoids :)

[Aezeal]

Did we have a NAP pasha? can't even remember talking to you that much, and certainly can't remember much replies..

but, if we had I still have the moral high ground since you already attacked me once with some loony lonely commander :D

[Aezeal]

PS if I relly broke a NAP there is no reason for you to wait another 3 turns to attack me

It's war now, I attacked you and neither of us should pretend it didn't happen. Just retalliate if you want, I'm gonna press the attack either way.

[namad]

why would you have broken the nap without warning to attack hinnom's capital? is it because now that your are so close to winning you consider all previous agreements void?



looking to trade away fire gems: either for useful items, or gems of a type i can use

[Aezeal]

Well as I said, I can't remember a NAP but if he says there was one I'm not sure enough to say he's wrong.

Anyway I don't really figure why you'd think I'm winning.. sure I can't deny I have an advantage in some areas but you and him are teaming up and he has loads of troops and summons (I've seen his armies and I'm not happy to be fighting them) and you have loads of research.

in any case if I'd been 100% sure of winning I'd certainly not have broken a NAP (if I'd known there was one). But really I can't remember talking to pasha except through grudge when we planned the assault on Hinnom (only when we nearly clashed I talked with him directly)

And as I said... if there was a NAP he'd broken it already since my main army slaughtered a lone invading commander :D

[PashaDawg]

Hello Aezeal:

I just forwarded the email correspondence between us agreeing to a NAP. Will you honor it?

I don't recall attacking you previously, except that it was agreed that I would take back a certain forest province. If there were any attacks by lone commanders, then they were purely and obviously accidental.

Pasha

[Aezeal]

Yeah you did attack me about 4-5 turns ago but I must admit it wasn't anything I could possibly take serious :D

Well you'll need to delay the turn then so I can make changes, I'm not going to be home the next 30 hours.

I really wonder why you just don't go ahead and attack me back, you have plenty of troops on my border (which is why I'm attacking you in the first place) but if you insist on another 2 turns of peace then I'll honor that since I've got a few things coming to strengthen my position (which is why I really think giving me another 2 turns to get that all settled isn't in your advantage.. but I guess you want to have R'lyeh as back up or something)

[namad]

i have fire gems to trade, i'd like to receive astral or water or death or nature gems in return if possible

[Aezeal]

ehm no you are my enemy, ask your team buddy agartha
