Corwin, might I suggest something?

You keep delaying the turn and yet you stailed the last two, this turn you've delayed 24+24+24+4+4+5+24 hours, which I don't mind, but rather than constantly delaying the game and possibly stailing(as you already did), you might want to put the game on hold til you sort what ever stuff you have in RL.
I'm sure Dr.P wouldn't mind either. What you're doing is neither good for us, with constantly waiting for the turn , nor you, as you end up stailing, so I suggest you delay the game until you're able to continue as I fairly dislike a top nation being killed due to stails or half ars turns.

My sincere apologies to all players about recent delays. The last week was unbelievably crazy for me, several RL emergencies happened at the same time. I suspect I am going to remember this Thanksgiving for a long time...

Fortunately it is all in the past now, I took care of it, so there should be no more delays and stalls on my part. Thank you very much for your patience and understanding guys.


Luckily for my nation my 2 recent stalls happened right after I've finally managed to wipe out the last significant Van's army in the north. So although these stalls have certainly hurt my nation and have cost me bunch of lost provinces and recourses, the damage was much less then it would be if I would stall 3-4 turns ago, during the peak of hostilities in the north. (yeah, looking for a silver lining here... )

New turn has hosted. Reminder - we are on the 72h host. Since there were no objections to switching to 24h warning, I am switching hosting notification from 12 to 24 hours, as DrPraetorious requested.


Now I am very curious - what the hell is going on in the south?!? I've watched all turns I've stalled as well as the latest one. It looks like the ixiles and crack troops of the Last Legion of Vans continue to tear the bloody path through heart of TC domain, breaking through all defense barriers that TC throws in their path. But meanwhile both Ermor and Jotuns are quetly creeping behind Van back, taking TC's provinces that were recently conquered by Van. (Although I think I've seen Ermor attacking TC directly in one province). Has some kind of diplomatic arrangements been made? Or is this elaborate dancing the result of complex web of NAP pacts? The nation of Pythium would appreciate if one or more of the participants in the complex southern politics would bring the light to what the hell is happening around Van/TC war in the south...


As for the recently casted Sea of Ice - although it has dispelled my global, after analyzing current situation I've come to the conclusion that frozen seas benefits Pythium more then it hurts (by making the defense of my realm against possible massive assault a bit easier) And of course it would helps BL a lot if they will come to blows with Ermor once again in the future, which is clearly the reason why it was casted) So thank you Iainuki.

South, hm, which south? Far east-south? Fat west-south? Deep-South? There have been numerous battle and skirmishes all over the world in the last few months.
Are you interested in the Jotun/Bandar border skirmishes?
The Ermorian invasion of Ulm?
The Jotun invasion of TC?
The Vanheim crusade against TC?
The Vanheim uprising in the new provinces of Pythium?
The hunting down and assimilating of the current and previously owned Vanheim and TC lands by Jotun, Pythium and Ermor?

Hmm, well I guess that was directed at me on more levels.
Surely all those undead legions that began their decent to the waters of the world, before they were interrupted, had no intention of invading either Bandar or Pythium.

The last one. The rest of conflicts you have listed I am aware of.

So has Ermor and/or Jotun officially attacked TC? So far based upon my limited intel in that area you guys seem to be focusing on freshly conquered Vans provinces, what were however until few turns ago owned by TC. Is it so?
