Do you ever heard about surprise? (ducks)
85+ turn friends don’t attack each other without a last-minute hug. :)
Also, I already fired Volcanos and Tidal Waves and Wrath of the Sea and stuff at him, and have had the same + Blights fired back. Could it be the usual bickering between long-time companions, or the signal of something more dire?
Even so much as a single Monstra can win the game. You might as well surrender now.
The scariest thing about Monstras is that their names constantly feel misspelled to me. Sort of like “Infogrames” or “extarbags”.
wahoo

Dom 3 patch is out.
Lanka: Maverni-Pan deathmatch continues. It’s the uber Pan units vs the Mavernia Money machine! Although the money machine is running low due to mucho unrest. Still, I feel good about not getting crushed by a better, more experienced player. Held off another attack from Pan on my precious province… Would be nice if Lanka/Nief joined in to help slow down the Pan steamroller.
- Svartalf home only
- Mirror image (and glamour) does not protect units from missiles or magic.
- Blade wind reduced # o e
NOOOO my poor Helheim! :P
By the way, hosts: when are we going to patch in my games (Hoplite, Bandar)?
Bandar and Lanka will patch after the next hosted turn for each. So basically if you are in one of those games and have played your current turn, don’t take another without patching. If you are in one of those games and haven’t taken your current turn, do so before patching.
Thanks, Nick. I think Lum is running Hoplite, and who knows if he still keeps up with this thread (I’m guessing not).
Eh you’re a little crazy. Our last battle you lost 24 troops to my 53-odd, and most of mine were high value minotaurs and centaurs.
To describe Pangea as a dangerous steamroller, and to appeal to it’s neighbours that it must be stopped is seriously disingenuous.
Instead let me turn the tables: The Marveni are accumulating an irresistable mass of an army, numbering nearly 200 units on my border. It is quite likely that they will soon absorb me into their rapidly expanding and fabulously wealthy empire unless a coalition of their neighbours can stop them!
Unite against the Marveni Menace!! Don’t let them eat your babies!! Thats what they love to do you know!!!
I’m going to be away starting this weekend for a few days - I’d like to ask that both Hoplite and Dawn be taken off the timer until next wednesday. I’ll definitely be able to do the current turn for each.
Get the patch here!
But first:
Everybody make sure your host has patched before you send in a turn made with the 3.08 patch, or it will crash the server. It might be a good idea to make a separate Dom3 folder with all your 3.06 stuff to send in turns to servers with the old patch.
Has anyone already PM’d Lum for a Hoplite patching? I don’t want to flood his inbox - but I would really like to get Hoplite patched so I can avoid using two versions.

Will making a turn with the old patch also crash the server if the server is patched ?
You can test and find out, but not on any of the games I’m hosting please :)
What is the deal with the R’lyeh void gate? It’s only been, what, 5 or 6 turns so far? I’ve lost a summoning starspawn and a godamn hero version of the summoner to being attacked by void creatures in the gate already and don’t have a single beastie to show for it.
Ritual of Return is your friend.
Make sure your starspawn have that set in their orders. The void gate is dangerous, but once the starspawn get the hang of it they’ll pull some nice critters out. IIRC, after X summons the starspawn is almost guaranteed to go insane or get killed, so try to pull them out before that.
I haven’t been able to connect to Bandar all day. Has the ninja been active again?
I’m guessing someone uploaded a 3.06 version of their turn.
No, I shut it down after the turn hosted on purpose, so that everyone would have time to patch and I’d have time to patch the server before the next turn.
Speaking of Patching, when should Banefire patch up? The current turn has already been played by most (including myself), so might I suggest we patch after hosting this next turn? Not sure of the technical details, but it makes sense to me that all players are on the same page.
