Petty Kingdoms - EA, CBM 1.83, 6 players - Finished

[Valerius]

Sorry for the delay in getting started. I PM'd Ossa but he hasn't logged in since Saturday. It seems like he's submitting turns in another game that's on 24 hour hosting so I guess he just hasn't checked the forums. I'll see if someone can get in touch with him using the llamaserver's messages.

Game on.

*insert obligatory self-congratulatory boasting and projections of future dominance*

[Valerius]

Good, we've started. Otherwise I undoubtedly would have sent in a fourth revision of my pretender. I can't even remember offhand what I ended up with.

Just a reminder that at the beginning of the game, when turns only take a couple of minutes, if you are last to send in your turn please wait a few minutes for the game to host and then send in your next turn.

This is ridiculous. My Ri just won the arena a couple of months ago and he's already having to defend his title?

Btw Huitochka, I was lucky you sent a skratti to the first tournament. I was worried it might be a Niefel Jarl with a chill aura and was hoping someone else might take him out before I had to face him.

[Huitochka]

True, he would have better chances. Still, losing Jarl would hurt way more.

More arena matches! Solely to keep Valerius's Ri occupied =)

That will only occupy one of them.

Actually, I almost did a very dumb thing and prophetized my arena champion. It would be quite annoying to need him and have him forced to defend his title.

I'm also kind of regretting choosing Sixlands. It's an excellent map, but the territories are very defined and going beyond your "borders" is almost certain to initiate a war. Kind of a waste of the Turbo Tir expansion I had going as I ended up with the same number of provinces I likely would have with a slower rate of expansion.

Or you could just plan on fighting a war early =P

Crazy talk. I can't possibly go to war until I've researched high level magic, fully site searched, put up a couple of globals and have upkeep so high that I can no longer recruit mages.

Though the funny thing is the only time I can remember engaging in anything resembling a rush was also played on Sixlands. Obviously I don't plan on engaging in such reckless behavior again.

And TNN turn is sent in so we should be hosting momentarily. We've got a nice pace going here.
