I have to admit to some frustration with all of the delays. I'm sorta stuck between putting the timer up now and ambushing echodyne with stales he didn't expect, but possibly to keep more people from disappearing, or at least waiting until he returns and having a stricter policy on delays starting then. As far as ragabash, I had hoped to get more info about the state of yomi for a sub thread, but evidently it is not to be.

hmmm I can guess how many provinces he has sort of but I need to check. not a leading position but deffinately not a loosing one. Somewhere in the middle so there is still chance to get good allies and to get the game but it needs some work. If you said you'd give a delay then you should wait

. Otherwise you could be strickter in the future if you want to. I personally am fine with big delays since I might need them soon

in 20ish days.

Here is the thing though, if we wait a week for everyone who needs a week we'll still be playing this game two years from now. I needed two weeks last month and I got a sub. A game like this you have to be ruthless insofar as progress otherwise you don't get anywhere. If we don't start making more progress though I am going to have to leave the game. I wasn't anticipating this game lasting a year or two when I entered it in March due to a weeklong delay for anyone who asks, and I am willilng to bet that others are in teh same boat here.

fair enough

yea I was thinking of finding a sub if I needed more than a day or two delay.

Ok, echodyne is setup to reappear today at the latest. No sub appeared for yomi, so I'm setting him to AI. Timer is going back up on 48 hours, and let's try to keep it there!

Some more oddities on spells (all EDM ones) in this game, at least for me:
- when I cast awake Cyclops, my gems are used but no Cyclop in view! :-(
- Great Kraken is not listed in the castable spells

I remind that I could not find Zmeys and Rocs in the castable spells on my mages. When I summoned the Firebird, also nothing came, but since it is unique I just thought someone else had cast it before, now I doubt.

Did anyone summon any EDM guys??? Or did anyone have similar problems? Come on I am not the only one interested by EMD summons in this game, and it would be nice to understand what is happening.

I've summoned krakens with no problems. The firebird isn't actually unique, so I'm not sure why it didn't appear.

Admiral, actually I saw your kraken this turn

More info on this bug: I am allowed to cast Curse of the Wendigo although I should not (I don't have the right level in thaumaturgy). When I go to "Magic", it is shown in dark gray at the right position (meaning I haven't reached it yet). And still, when I go "cast a spell", I am given the opportunity to cast it.

So I think there may be a wrong attribution of magic schools to EDM spells, for a reason I can't understand (I looked in the mod files and I don't see anything wrong). This would explain why I can cast Curse of the Wendigo, located in a school I have researched enough, but not Zmeys, located maybe in thaumaturgy. If this theory is true, zmey will unlock to me when I research the wrong school in which it is located.

Even if this is true, it does not explain why I did not get my Firebird (gosh it would have been useful against LA Ermor) and my Cyclop when I summoned them, although I got the gems spent...

So many Krakens... it still hasn't saved your land territory!

I think you won that one Admiral... but any more such victories will ruin you!
