I would use msew's rules, with the exception of capitals (i.e., you can stack as many mages there as you want without retreat orders). This would allow everyone a safe research base, while keeping the mages out of battle most of the time. While this would make players hard to kill, this is not neccesarily a bad thing. Also, you could always 'starve' the capital mages out from lack of gold.

It's really ridiculous that we are stalled again here for the 2nd day in a row. These should be 10-15 minute turns. To keep this from happening again I will be moving this game to 24hr quickhost once this current turn generates.

Additionally, if this current turn does not generate by 7pm Eastern US Time, I will force it. So, one way or the other, there will be a turn tonight and we will be on 24hr quickhost from here on out.

I'll send cohen a PM to warn him now as well since he is the only person out....

Slow, deep breaths Ironhawk....
I'm the first to grumble when the turn isn't in, but lets keep in mind that this game isn't on quickhost. And even were we Quick Hosting, some players are going to stale. Complaining about it makes you feel better, but won't stop players from going out of town, or playing DaoC until they're blue in the face. So sharpen your pikes and host without them!

I'm not that upset, cactus. But its an adding insult-to-injury situation here, you have to give me that. I mean, not 2 turns ago I specifically sent out an in-game message asking people to respect the informal 24hr.

And of course I have no issues with people needing more time and going out of town, etc. But there was no communication to that effect. Coupled with the simplicity of these early turns some irritation is warranted.

Anyway, the game will be progressing tonight so there is that to look forward to.
