T’weren’t me. I hate taking negative scales.

Mistspell is the toughest tactical guessing game I’ve played in Dom 3. It’s a dance of knives where a miststep screws up. I’ve won with a few good guesses and I’ve lost with a few bad guesses.
Oh and we weep copious tears for you.

Bah. At least he blocks you from proceeding through that pass.
Seriously though this war has been more affected by random events than any I’ve been in before. The indie-held city popping up right there, the trogs, now Bogus. Any one of those could be the edge needed.
Anyway, I’ve got some more multiple-choice questions for you.

“Seriously though this war has been more affected by random events than any I’ve been in before. The indie-held city popping up right there, the trogs, now Bogus”.
Yep…hate taking luck and then having those frigging trogs come at the most critical time. If I had access to that fort you would have been in trouble.
I love Questions!

Crom has been placed on pause until Dec 28th, unless someone else wants a longer extension.

Addendum to Mist Spell and Inquisitor
I’ll make sure both games are off timer as of today; both will remain up until next Friday.
Upon my return, I’ll up them both (and post here) timerless until, hm, let’s say the 10th. Then back to 48hr. Suits?
wahoo

Is anyone else gone from Mistspell?* Everyone seems to be taking their turns and I’d like to get another turn or 2 done before Monday.
Everyone other than tiohn who was stalled in both crom/mistspell recently. Tiohn you still playing?
wahoo

Mistspell: I think it’s time to take the timer off unless Rollory can play his next turn. He stalled last turn which is bad in a war situation.
Also, I’ll be gone from Monday till Marcin is back so if we could turn the timer off for sure by Monday!
Rollory

Um, what the fuck?
Thursday:
That right there was why I didn’t hurry to get the turn done last week, I knew I had the holiday break to think about it, it was a critical turn and needed thinking about, and I’ve had other things to worry about. Therefore there’s no way I should have staled anything.
Is it off timer NOW, at least?

Yea, I’m still playing. Finals week handed my ass to myself, and I’m really not sure how I staled. I guess I lost track of more time than I thought!
Yeah, I didn’t know Mistspell was still running either…hope I didn’t miss a turn.
Marcin

Yes to both. Looks like I switched it a turn too late, huh. Sorry :/

Mist Spell
Well, you can play your turns now if you like (Marginon and the Elves).
I’m pretty sure this is the first game I’ve ever been in where Astral Corruption went up. Luckily, no one of mine got attacked. Niefelheim, on the other hand, appears to have taken it on the chin. 5 will get you 10 that the suddenly-deceased caster of Mother Oak and the spanking new Gift of Health was his pretender, just to make it a triple whammy. Ouch.
Yeah, talk about your worst luck ever. Same turn I spend an absolute fortune in nature gems to make sure GoH remains mine for the rest of the game, Astral Corruption goes up. Even 50/50 of my global being cast first gets passed over. Of course, I never bothered to script her as she was basically untouchable to surprise attacks where she was, and it wasn’t like I was at war with anyone. She could have used either Claws of Coyotos (sp?) or one of the astral returning spells no problem to save herself, but in my inexperience I didn’t see it coming.
On the otherhands, its not all bad, as I’m the only other blood nation in the game and have a pretty good “bank” of non-blood items and SC chasises. As a side benefit to having purchased a N. Jarl every turn I’ll also be able to bring her back no problem (like I need much more research at this point).
Meanwhile, while I might have considered back stabbing TC while he was occupied with Van just to maintain the balance of powers, he’s on my hit list now. Idar, send some targets and I’ll throw some nasty surprises thataway.
I’m just laughing my ass off at that. That had to cost a TON of magical gems because my gift of health that got overpowered had hundreds behind it. If there’s one thing a ton of oceanic provinces are good for it’s nature gems oddly enough.

Hey, i might go down pretty fast but i will take a few with me… he he Astral coruption is da blast… only problem is that tien chi comes with mostly normal troops and swarm my summoned ones… argh!
Is there any trick to using Voice of Tiamat? I have a W2 mage and the requisite # of gems, but the spell is grayed out on the ritual list.
Are you underwater? I think the mage needs to be underwater to cast.
Be nice if it said that in the !@#$@!&*!@!&% description. So I need a lab underwater…
Thanks Jonathan!
