The 3.10 patch is out. At least 1 substantial bug already reported, though it only affects one of the new nations (LA Pythium’s hydras lose their sacred status forever if they lose a head).
Patch here:

A new patch huh?
I’ll patch Wednesday night, Lanka and Jeff players should target the same time frame. The server will send out a patch notification when it upgrades.
Empowering all that Air magic on your pretender must have hurt, if you didn’t have it before. Would this be a good time to consider making common cause against the other endless horde of zombies? :P
Curious, when’s Marcin planning to patch the server?
Hey Nick, have you patched yet?
On that note, has anyone checked out the races? The EA Giants seem to be a lot like Niefelheim, minus the chill auraus but with glamour support troops. As for the LA Pythum, they have must have more commanders then any other nation in the game. Just saying.
I’m down for patching. Didn’t get a chance to do it yet but the games are offline and will remain so until patched. Players will get an email notification when the game patches.
Okay, LANKA and JEFF players can connect and play their turns with 3.10 now. Server upgrade is complete.
Note that in order to prevent any wonkiness I deleted all previously submitted turns before upgrading. This applies to both games. If you are in QT3-JEFF or QT3-Lanka and thing you have taken your current turn already you are mistaken.

Is it a good idea to patch now? I guess it’s too late. The mac version is screwed up, and there are several documented, easily fixable bugs.

When either someone tells me there’s a new patch, or I happen to check this thread :P
I’m guessing the server’s already crashed due to mis-patch connections? I’ll try to get to it tonight either way.
Wait, you play dom3 on a mac? I play it on a linux workstation sometimes and I still think that gaming on a mac is a strange and uncomfortable thing. Sort of like stuffing your underwear full of gummi worms, it’s not inherently wrong or painful but there doesn’t seem to be any sane reason to do it.

I move that Nick as Lanka wins the Lanka game. It’s pretty hopeless especially since TC has stalled some. I’m just tinkering at this pt and trying some spell stuff.
Then I move NIck starts a new game to incorporate the new countries and I play in it on a 48 hour timer and expand it to 72 after turn 60.
Well I won’t speak to the first bit too much, but I was curious how much the astral corruption was going to inconvenience you guys. As to the second part, I am definitely planning another game after Lanka ends since I always like to keep myself in two dom games at a time :)

My Pretender just fought off an eater of the gods horror, so there’s that. Bastard horror ate all my gems though.
Honestly though i don’t have time. I’ve been working on a business project after hours and with what little social time i have already i just don’t have time to do this 48 hours between turns. I’m often not even able to turn on the computer till after 9pm. I don’t think Nick has won yet suprisingly enough, but i don’t know if i can spare the time to fight the good fight…
BTW, it sucks that teleporting comes at a different time than sallying from the fortress.

I guess it’s like this:
I don’t want to quit yet, but i need more time. I need time to seperate and script about a hundred mages, split armies, forge items for SCs, ect. If i can’t get the time, i can’t play. I mean i’ve got about 6000 gold unspent becuase i cna’t find the time to spend it.
If both Wahoo and Hetzer want to quit, though, i’ll call the game.
I don’t want you to quit either because I’m curious how much fight you’ve got. Wahoo hurt me bad, especially in all the thugs I lost, and even though I’m rolling over him I’m not quite in the position I was in 10 turns ago. You may do better against me than you think. But then, I’ve added astral corruption to the mix since then, so who knows.
So, does Astral Corruption affect battlefield spells as well, or just rituals? Not that I’m going to cast it or anything…

Can I reserve a spot in this one? But don’t call it Jeff. That didn’t work out very well.
Are you joking? It went fantastically. Though, I must say it delayed two of my expansion armies, which seems to have given Tir Egg Noggie a chance to grab some more border independents.
can I too? if i promise not to be as crap as the last 2?
