Noobs vs. Vets II: Mysterio's Revenge, EA, CBM, Game Over. Vets defeat Noobs.
 

Game conceded by the noob team at turn 31. Congratulations to the vet team.

And so it begins.

Mysterio, the only man who can withstand the gaze of a gorgon, happening upon the mortally wounded Mysteria who lay dying on the battlefield after the defeat of her veteran pretender god allies, vows to avenge her defeat and restore her to life. Using arcane magicks, Mysterio travels back into time to destroy the ancestors of the noob pretender gods and their armies to ensure that they will never be born and thereby prevent the death of his beloved wife and half sister Mysteria.

This is a team game and the sequel to the original Noobs vs. Vets.

This time around the focus will be on magic, longer term stategic planning, development, and accelerated research.

Hold a spot for grudgebringer, I think he might still be interested.

I'd like to join -and I'm ok with both teams. I've played quite a few games so far but hardly ever reached the endgame.

I was hoping LA again, since I've finally getting used to Bogarus. MA I play Shinuyama, and haven't gotten around to a EA nation yet.
So what would be a good mage central nation for EA that I could play as

Hmm, EA has an emphasis on magic already built into most of the nations, I'm not quite sure, perhaps T'ien chi, or Arco maybe. Ponder it whilst we finish getting signups and then you can choose.

You or Grudgebringer (one of our returning alternates) would be fine on the noob side, provided there are no objections from the vet team before we start, that has been and will always be their right. Understandably so, given the odds and as very green noobs are prefered.

Will do.

I may be interested to join as Hinnom, but it depends on who else wants to join on vet side and if I'll have enough free time :)
