Greatatlantic:

Out of curiousity, anybody get a province seemingly randomly attacked by something called the “Abomination of Desolation”?

I don’t know what the thing of various forms of death that suddenly attacked one of my provinces was called, but it was something like that.

I presume you killed it?

Hmmm… it just might come back now, then, along with the Eater of the Gods.

On another note,

Dave Perkins and Rollory, you have your respective turns to play in Mistspell and Inquisitor. Chop, Chop!

Okay, I picked this up and am trying my first game (I did do Bruce’s tutorial, first). It’s incredibly detailed.

Yeah, sorry it’s taken this long.

Where can I find this tutorial? Or is this the tutorial at the beginning of the manual?

No, it ate my province defence and an unfortunate squad of infantry, then vanished the next turn.

One and the same.

Bad Tien Chi! Stop massing an army on my border! I have Bakemono and I’m not afraid to use them! Don’t make me unleash the goblins of Niefelheim!

I hear some folks were having trouble connecting to Inquisitor. I restarted it and tested the connection to my satisfaction. It was all Dave’s fault, I suspect. :D

Rollory · 2008-01-08T05:16:10.000Z

Dave’s last post says he was going to be away till the 26th. How long do we give him before going back on timer for Inquisitor?

Rollory · 2008-01-08T05:18:10.000Z

And, btw, MistSpell could go back on timer, far as I’m concerned.

Same here.

I was thinking it be best to go through one turn to make sure everyone knows the game is back and is playing it.

As for Dave, I actually got a PM from him inquiring about server status a couple days ago, so I think he realizes the game is back. Hopefully, he’ll take his turn soon.

Dave_Perkins · 2008-01-08T11:45:51.000Z

Yup, I’m rarin’ to go in Inquisitor, and tried a couple of times in recent days but the server was neened. But I think we’re good to go now! I’ll take my turn

RAHT ABAHT NAWAH

Rollory · 2008-01-09T05:19:12.000Z

Welp, I’ve lost. I’ll keep submitting turns but there’s no real hope.

In all seriousness I blame the stale. If not for that, the “big battle” would’ve been in a different province, with room to retreat. Instead it had to happen with my back to the wall. Not where I would have planned it if I’d had any time to prepare.

Anybody who wants to start grabbing provinces from me, better do it now, before Ulm gets 'em all.

Just to make sure, since I was completely wiped out in Crom, do I need to continue to do anything? I want to make sure that the server won’t be waiting for me to do something.

I’m pretty sure thats a negative. Server no longer will take you into account when it autohosts.

I think your off-shore gem accounts should be emptied into mine! ;)

Thank you for playing in Crom, tiohn… and we’ll see ya in another game I’m sure!

Well it appears Dave and whoever is playing Sauromatia are getting ready to gang up on me. So when’s the next game start?

Arcoscephale and whoever’s on the othe sid of Sauromatia might want to go ahead and charge them from behind after they go and start dismantling me. With the way the map is set up we could have one big circle of war!

Hetzer · 2008-01-10T06:03:55.000Z

Yoo, next game would be cool as im going down in another game…
