Yeah, from about turn 40 onwards I was just stealing oxygen and wasting space, really. The post game debriefs are quite interesting, I have to say.

However, for me the big reason why I'm okay with the rollback is because Utgard only went *poof* because of a rollback. To be fair, I did vote for the roll back - I kinda feel that as I am one of the guys who votes to redo the turn, if I don't like how it turned out - such is life! I'd like to thin...

Dom kill is a valid tactic, so I would be against a rollback... Yeah, unfortunately I agree. A complete n00b mistake on my part, and very well executed into the bargain. If I have any say in the matter I'd favour flicking my territory to Abysia, otherwise I suggest you guys fight for it and add som...

Good news indeed! OK, I am just sending you a PM now to set it up. Lets have some fun with this turkey I'm pretty keen for a war of some kind, just to get the feeling of doing something. Maybe Caelum and I could duke it out, as we are probably roughly on a par? I mean, we've only got one border spac...

Wow, hadn't read the game thread for a while. I'm pretty keen for a war of some kind, just to get the feeling of doing something. Maybe Caelum and I could duke it out, as we are probably roughly on a par? I mean, we've only got one border space in common, but hey I am game. With hindsight, Rabelais ...

Best post ever. Seriously, this is f***ing awesome :rofl: Good game Rabby. Looks like Abysia is gonna win this one now. I told you soft power works. http://i.imgur.com/23ngP.jpg Hell with it. Chelms wins. I'll just turtle quietly over here. Kill me second to last please. http://i.imgur.com/rR94Ll.jpg

Was there an epic last battle between Abysia and Ermor that I missed? Seems like the Zombie Apocalypse is no more (pause for a moment to honour the fallen). and Marignon has just named a new prophet (implying the old one died an unnatural death at the hands of the zombies). Any details would be grat...

When I give up on survival in about 4 turns, if nothing prevents Chelms from steamrolling me, what is the polite thing to do with my gems and research boosters? For me, it depends on the situation. If I have allies who have helped me, i'll send them on. Otherwise, I just leave them to the victor - ...

Well, I finally had a major battle with Rabelais. Lots of fun on both sides (= heaps of dead people). Was it decisive though? I really can't tell. I mean, if holding the field equals winning, then I won, and I lost a lower % of my army. But it can hardly be classified as a one sided victory, alas! S...

On a related note, is anyone interested into subbing into another game as Arcosephale? Apparently the nation is struggling a bit, but its not as irredeemable as TC seems to be in this game.

Have we put up an add for a sub on Shrapnel or whatever? (Apologies if we have and I missed it.) I like Rabelais suggestion. Failing that I would even be comfortable with someone from the other side of the map playing out the last years of the TC empire as long as they promised to be impartial, and ...

Heh. I may owe war reparations to Utgard, but since Caelum owes them to me, i think it would be best if Utgard collected from him directly. Makes sense to me. Oh wait, my bad - what I meant to say was, "you callous fiend, how could you even suggest such a thing? you will pay for the evil you h...

So, I can't help but notice two things from the map: 1) Abysia is now the sovereign of Behemoth's Rest (120) 2) Behemoth's rest is a long, long, long way from the rest of Abysia Anyone care to shed some light on this puzzling occurance? (My best guess is that Rabelais cast that wolves-in-the-forrest...

Possibly not, since he has been eliminated. I'll try PMing him (I think he is also on the Shrapnel board).

Looks like a couple of people staled. Do we do a roll back? I haven't opened my turn file yet. Yeah, three people. I'd be cool with that. (I did wonder why Abysia hadn't started knitting his dispersed forces together just yet, guess this explains it.) Anyone else got a preference either way? Three ...

Abysia seem to be the masters of tactical maneuvering - I just can't catch Rabelais to save my nation! Oh well, makes for a memorable game I have to say :-)

Turns in, but the extension will be very handy to recheck it. I got nailed last turn by (i think?) the movement bug, leading to some of my dudes and leaders being left behind and nailed by hungry Abysians (do Norna's make a tasty spit roast or something?), so I am hoping for a better outcome this tu...

OOC Question: NAP 3 means that I can only attack on the 4th turn yes? So if I DoW on Turn 27, I can only start attacking on Turn 30, or can I start attacking on Turn 29? My understanding is that in this case you would be able to engage in hostilities from turn 30. When in doubt, I usually just chec...
