Oh, may I please have a 6 hr extension too? Forgot to email my turn last night.

sharaleo · 2016-01-20T21:08:29.000Z

Done.

DireAussie:

Hehe, my game is more or less over, just having fun with my teleporting statue casting earthquake now. Last turn it killed Sauros army as well as one of the god vessels!

Ahha, I was wondering where my good friend Tranquility the ancient Agarthan undead fluffy kitten went!

I’ll gladly trade one of my armies for Tranquility.

That statue is a pain though. Who would’ve guessed that a weapon that causes it’s victims to age wouldn’t be the best choice against a big hunk of rock. Not me apparently.

Has anyone been in a game where a neighbor consistently ignores all your messages? Where the temptation to invade is only slightly assuaged by the 430 ohms on the capital?

No? Just me? Alrighty then.

Peleagia, you are rapidly approaching the time where I need to declare my NAP with you null and void. You hold 3 of 5, and at least two other thrones near you are tenuously held. If I had a neighbor who would help me get into the water, or close to his capital, it would help.

psyanojim · 2016-01-22T00:50:15.000Z

Awwwww thats nice, are you offering to give me a proper fight underwater, where I can use my full firepower? It’ll be fun :)

Close to my capital, where all my best underwater mages are? Even better! Yes please!

Evil_Steve · 2016-01-22T21:24:25.000Z

due to uncertain times, the zvoid is cancelling all 3NAPs as of this coming turn (ie inclusive of coming turn), with a view to renegotiating them on a case by case basis.

Your deeply cavernous pal,

The Void

Akaoni · 2016-01-23T06:36:23.000Z

Niefel will also cancel all 3 turn NAPs, starting this turn, 54, with a view to renegotiating them on a case by case basis.

As for proper fights underwater, I believe this quote expresses my opinion on that:
“There was no such thing as a fair fight. All vulnerabilities must be exploited.”

psyanojim · 2016-01-23T07:15:50.000Z

Excellent. I was starting to worry that I’d never get a good fight underwater :)

A land nation could win this game without going near the sea. 2/3rds of provinces are land, and the winning throne count is on land.

Yet somehow, the land fears the sea. Its almost… cute.

Otthegreat · 2016-01-23T07:43:12.000Z

I don’t even remember if I had a NAP with either of you.

This promises to be a crazy end-game, we’ve got a good number of major powers out there.

Strato · 2016-01-29T05:15:10.000Z

For those who lack scouts, something is afoot. To the north, Berytos lands have become consumed by Pelagian thugs, whilst astral casters sit back in the comfort of their little labs casting mindhunt at a myriad of commanders within the smoking remains of my nation. To the south, and to some extent, to the north, the terrestrial friend of Pelagia known as Sauromatia aims to expand their borders by also going to war with me, seizing even more land.

Why is this important? I can’t fight this. I can not win. Even after the Oceanian war I was happy to sit and watch, but alas, those plans have been foiled. What I can do? I can make items. And I will make items from my own gem reserves, my only term being that so long as my dominion holds a candle to its name, such items are used only for aggression against my current enemies of Sauromatia and Pelagia. This is the time for Agartha,Ryleh, Nief and TNN to band together and bring down this looming threat to your own possible victories. If anyone has any spare blood slaves, I will grind them into whatever your heart desires seeing as my own blood economy is shot. Otherwise, drop a wishlist and it might yet become fulfilled.

Oh my, do I miss this game. I don’t have the time to even play a solo game, but… Well written strata and good luck.

psyanojim · 2016-01-29T13:16:09.000Z

An alternative plan for those who have profited nicely from Pelagias friendship thus far

i) wait for Pelagia to smash invaders, since Pelagia loves fighting and battle reports more than anything else in this game
ii) steal lands from Pelagias enemies easily
iii) more profit!!!

Pyperkub · 2016-01-30T08:32:12.000Z

Can I get a 24 hour extension on old school? In Tahoe for the weekend

Otthegreat · 2016-01-30T09:07:38.000Z

I heartily endorse Pelagia’s three-step self-improvement plan!

Akaoni · 2016-01-30T09:32:47.000Z

Hosting postponed for QToldschool by 36 hours. The game will now host at 23:03 GMT on Monday February 1st.

Hopefully thats enough time to recover from the fun in Tahoe…

Pyperkub · 2016-02-01T13:39:24.000Z

Body is still sore, but the Fae have their turn in. The stale Cave-dwellers, however…

Akaoni · 2016-02-02T17:42:25.000Z

So there’s less than a full day to do turns, and about half the players haven’t turned in yet? Perhaps a postpone is in order?

Strato · 2016-02-02T18:15:38.000Z

I’m just lazy. I’ll get mine in soon.

Akaoni · 2016-02-02T19:15:49.000Z

Attention! Due to unexplained swamp gas, high altitude balloons, or UFOs, we are experiencing a change of leadership.

Any person who would like to take over niefel please message me immediately.

Akaoni will be taking over Agartha almost immediately.

I will delay the game by 24 hrs for consideration, rethinking of cunning schemes, plans, and stratagems, etc.
