New(b) game: Borrowed time -*Running*-

[rex_havok]

interesting turn looks like the sleeping dragon has awoken and attacked many v-hexs.

I would hardly call Pythium the "sleeping dragon". I'm a distant 3rd in every category in the score graphs.

That's why I decided 30 turns ago that I'd better swing for the fences, but its looking like I only have warning-track power. I need 6 VPs to win - I had hoped to wait until I could attack 7 or 8 in a single turn but circumstances made me go ahead and attack just the 6. Unfortunately, 1 expeditionary force was lost (stupidly assigned to a province it was totally unsuited to attack) and another never left home (either it bounced off a dome, or I accidentally overwrote its astral travel order).

[rex_havok]

dome bouncing- considering i have had a few hits i guess i should add more domes that also deals damage

[rex_havok]

bad round for me- foolish mistakes due mostly to haste. (like forgeting to equip the wratefull sky guy with a storm staff-cost me a v-hex that i should have easily have defended). that's how it goes. looks like pythium had a great round.

[rex_havok]

i hate to do this but i must withdraw or pause the game for at lest 6 weeks. sorry
A death in the immediate family(my father) and spring seeding. i will contact rev to stall the game till you decide what to do. thank you for the great game.

I'll set the server to quickhost only (-> when all turns uploaded), until we can find a replacement or you're back. I don't know the ingame situation, but setting one of three remaining nations to AI would probably be bad.

I'm sorry to hear that, Rex. Take care of whatever you need to - the last thing you need to worry about is a computer game.

Let me know if you need a sub for any other games you're in.
