You don't want revenge for the second time I've beaten you now?

What side do you want to call this time? Me? I'm Ermor again. Maybe I'll take Soul Gate for a spin, though.

Mostly, I just called it that because "The Revenge" sounds cool. I already have a game running called "The New Game: Ultimate Death", so I figured "The New Game: The Revenge" would sound nice.

Ooohohoho, ermor!? >:}

I don't get it though. Can you give me some info on how this is going to work? I don't want to do PBEM. and it looks like this is a network game, so how is this going to work?

It looks like we will take turns when we are all Online like a blitz.

Good, because I hate PBEM. I don't even have email.

And yes, it's a network game. It works exactly like a blitz. We may even PLAY it as a Marathon-blitz, if nobody has any impinging time issues.

Basically, we start the game at the appointed time, and we play until somebody has to go. Then we pick up again the next day. And so on, until only one man remains standing. And be warned that I fight to the bitter end.

Oooh, good. Better for me when I have Undead Mastery researched.

I take it you're going to be C'tis? That'll make for an interestingly amusing tug-of-war, if everyone is casting undead mastery back and forth.

If this happened, about half of the undead each time would be turned to a different side so eventually, you'd have a battlefield of undead that looked like a giant free for all.

Actually, I think it would take all of about 1, maybe 2, castings to turn the battle into a giant, roiling, free-for-all melee, since the undead converted would essentially be random, and the entire mess would instantly devolve into a huge mass as the mob turns on each other. I've seen it happen.
