I won't be able to do the turn in time, extended it 12 hours.

I'm sorry the turns take such a huge time. But I'm trying, I really am. But I just don't think that I can stop Bogarus, Jomon and then Abysia.

And Bogarus, script your mages better dammnit! If you only had forged one crystal matrix you could have had a turn 1 master enslave. (give it to the last astral mage, let the rest cast communion slave, give him boosters, tadaa).

Another thing, Abysia what are you doing? There are these huge former emorian lands which you could try to take from me, or my homeland, which is also being raped by bogarus and jomon.

And Jomon. damn... why did you kill all my shishi? ...

I know I'm basically talking to myself here. But as the game is standing right now. You should not let me win. I''m bashed and battered heavily from the long wars I had. And while I have taken out R'lyeh, Ermor, and most of Borarus. (Yeah, I know you are still in the game, but that mad dash at my cap isn't working all that well now is it?).

You should be way more agressive. Abysia. Take what provinces you can have.

Utgard, my sekret ally, I think, dunno what you are doing. Start raiding all those provinces with temples.

Jomon. Why is that army standing still next to the former patala cap?

I'm horribly overextended, have negative gold income for every other turn. And still I feel that the pressure is not on enough. Be more fierce.

Of course. If nobody really cares to continue we could also call it a day. But I still think it would be easy to defeat me. I mostly only have the cap only mages which are pretty strong from LA atlantis I grant you that. But the rest is sucky.

I have few SC's. (Jomon has way more. (you really need to add antimagica amulets btw (those cyclopses... easy to kill. Any sc with 16 mr has a 50% chance of death vs one of my mind hunts. (eye of void gives +2 rune breaker gives +2 base 12). Or sneak/move a lot more astral mages around. I can mindhunt to easily. Jomon should be mind hunt immune. Same as bogarus, and actually all the nations in the game right now (apart from atlantis)).

Good try on the one person why is mindhunting my btw. Sure the earth king will not die from it. (I took additional precautions last turn, added a lot of scouts to him).

But I expect to see a lot more end game tactics. Where are the, 1 turn, you now lose all your non forted provinces attacks? The master enslave/undead enslave/all the other mass spells.

Also, you always want any of these spells to activate on turn one.

Another tip. Want to **** me over, dispell that Gift of health. Of course, now I have gathered a lot of new N gems for a recast, so expect to do it again.

Abysia, blood hunt and domsaccing perhaps? Your dom should be huge by now. You are the only dom sac nation left iirc. Also get those blood SC's.

I'm not saying this because I want to be a dick or something, but just because I see all this wasted opportunity that you all do not use. Throwing everthing at me piecemeal, allowing me to just snipe away at it. And not going after it massed. Jomon seems to be the only one really fighting.

In my defense, I've been a little out of it because I just had knee surgery... and this is the first time I've made it into late-game with a solid position. It's hard to keep track of all my options, especially with Jomon's ridiculous amount of diversity.

I've been trying to get more anti-magic gear, Soy, but I didn't have much of an income in Astral Pearls until a few turns ago. I'm ramping up production now. :P

Hi all together. I am here today to tell you that in my mind this game is not really "hot" anymore. I have the feeling that all of us are playing here with rather a "cold flame" and not with full effort. The spirit is kind of gone.
From my side ... i think we have seen a great game with changing powers ... never thougt emor could fall ... and we should call for an end. I personally dont want to carry on. What are your thougts?

I suppose I'd be ok with a draw with Atlantis. This game will take forever, otherwise.

Sorry I havent really been around for ages.. been busy changing jobs IRL.. I was a lost cause before I attacked you Atlantis and I decided to just go out in a ball of fire cause a bit o damage on my way to keeping your capital occupied.. I gave most of my stuff to Jomon and thought that my actions should help him a little bit to make the contest more even. The problem is IRl intervened and my scripts and placements where non-existant in any of those battles to the capital..

so yes i could have seriously done a load more damage had I put a lot more time into it alas I havent had much free time recently.. Been hired to work in the US so im doing visa's and packing and bank acc's and all sorts of lovely stuff!!

Again apologies for not playing better.. It seems the forums stopped notfying me of new posts here as well.. boo

My computer died and I won't have it back for a while, so I imagine my stale turns are looking pretty nasty for Jomon. If you guys want to find a sub for me, that's fine, although I'd be happy with a draw between Jomon and Atlantis.

Hi guys, sorry I kinda dropped out of sight here. I remember posting something here that I agreed with the draw vote, and was a bit weary of the end game fight already. (I considered it not to be winnable from my point anymore, and I actually was thinking about calling the game for Ermor earlier . (funny how that went)).

But that post was eaten by the server apparently. Sorry about that. I wanted to leave the game open for anybody who still wanted to try out some things.

But I'm going to close the game now if nobody objects.

Thanks for the game anyway, it was a lot of fun. And a very strange game . I never knew that you could bring down a -10 dom enemy province to positive dominion in one turn. Scary.
