Re: 8-10 player MA game to test new server (open)
The Petrify can be resisted, the paralyzed effect cannot be resisted. I guess it is possible it was paralyzed for only 1 turn. Typically the paralyze does not last long, but usually 2-5 rounds.

Re: 8-10 player MA game to test new server (open)
Yeah, that's exactly how I understood it. Definitely not paralyzed even briefly. Miserable sequence of events:
Tartarian Cyclops and two Devil-killing Harbingers cloud trapeze on top of devil.
-- Battle starts --
- Devil flies in and sends a fully kitted Harbinger to Inferno
- Tartarian Cyclops casts Petrify
- Second Harbinger casts Mistform
- Devil sends Cyclops to Inferno
- Second Harbinger flees

Re: 8-10 player MA game to test new server (open)
Tyrant and Sieger are doing turns in their other games. So they are still around.
I do not think either ermor or ryleh has a realistic chance to win, so their lack of interest given the delays etc is understandable. I think vanheim took the wind of of ermor's sails when he took down well of misery.

Re: 8-10 player MA game to test new server (open)
It has, to be fair, been an extraordinarily static game for Ermor and R'lyeh (and Vanheim, until very recently), I absolutely can't blame them if they're losing interest a bit. I've found personally that I begin to stop enjoying Dominions games when "cold war" periods go on too long (I was going off this one for a while before the Great War started) - in future I plan to make sure I have war all the way!
This is getting quite dramatic now though, at least for me, Vanheim and Pangaea. R'lyeh has caused considerable trouble (especially with that Infernal Scythe!), but I guess it could be frustrating that he's outnumbered and Vanheim can't easily support him. As for Vanheim - well he mentioned he was scared of us and thought he had no chance of winning, and I'm scared witless of him! Hundreds of freaking Tartarians! Master Enslave! I guess it's a bit like spiders ("They're just as scared of you as you are of them").

Re: 8-10 player MA game to test new server (open)
Hi guys, I'm going away this weekend (last trip away of quite a busy summer, I'm going to write sketches with some friends who are putting on a comedy show), so I've extended the timer of the _coming_ turn by 24 hours. The timer for the current turn remains the same (hosting in 6 hours or so).
Really getting into this game again now there's a lot of action. I've managed to put a lot of time into the last two turns (more than an hour both times), so hopefully, Vanheim, you're beginning to feel the heat!
