Man's pretender falls again. Now I just have to beat off that one, itty bitty army, and crush that other one and catch up with the remaining couple and Pythium will triumph

Or fall in a big heap Should focus on not to staling another turn.

Hold on Ulm, please ....

So much for not staling . I can't seem to connect to this game at the moment.

Screen just sitting waiting for game info. I was able to have a turn hosted at the same place (thanks Gandalf - I guess I am an example of one of those people taking up too many spaces) only minutes before.

Hopefully it will resolve itself in due time.

Still can't get past waiting for game info.

Oh man, that sounds really frustrating Digress.

The "waiting for game info" error happens from time to time, and effectively crashes the program. Once it's happened it won't fix itself. The solution is just to open a new window and try again. If you're really unlucky it'll happen again, but I've never had it happen three times in a row.

As to why it happens, I don't know.

Have you even managed to see this turn? You should try to if you have any chance to try connecting again, quite a lot happened.

Thank you Digress for "liberating" my capitol.
And yes, I am holding on (barely).

If it wasn't for that spell "fog warriors" I would've been on the green... grrr

Our generous host (thanks Gandalf) reset the game and then I could connect, complete the turn and watch the disaster unfold (ALL WITHOUT STALING). My noble pretender then fell under a hail of arrows and then massed vine ogres arrived en masse and reduced some other stuff to a fine mince.

I knew I had forgotten to hand out all the magic items (whoops !!) and had perhaps a little too much faith in the spell arrow fend.

Regarding Ulm, you see I finally did arrive to help out Its what good allies do, they come through when the going gets tough .... and the game is basically unwinnable

Songs frequently sung at the pubs in proud Ulm:

The all classic
"Brothers unite with glory we fall!"

And the newcomers
"Knight in the fog ate my dog"
"No sleep at the keep"

And of course the ever popular tune, "Lost in a sea of vines"

There are very few Pythians able to sing these days. I am willing to play to the bitter end - might last one more turn, two if I am lucky.

I was lucky - have squeezed out a couple more. I think a learnt a few things during the course of the game - hopefully it will improve me as a player.

Man is the undisputed victor - hail the beast
