Yeah, Llamaserver is stuck atm. I guess Llama will fix it when he can.

Didn't notice the last update time and in the other games the Nations still Show up.

Even in the dark caverns of the Agartha, there are rumors that somewhere deep in the warm swamps of the Lizard folk, there is research being done and strong domain being spread, a sign of an awake pretender. The deep seas seem abuzz with rumors of a great army forming and the Pythiums seem to have gained a large lead in Gems. What all the signs lead to is unknown, but we at least know what we are going to do today!

On a totally different note, I might need some extra time in order to submit my turn. I'm away from home, and Dominions 3 won't run on my labtop, now that the graphics card is broken.

So we're playing with Victory Points, eh? Could somebody explain to me exactly how those work? Is it just first person to hold all of them for a turn? Or first person to hold them all for a period of time? Or do the points accumulate?

I still think those crowns are ignorable...

Thanks for the heads up. I should read posts in this thread more carefully.

Most MA nations start out with 5 gem income, but Pythium starts with 8. R'lyeh has cheap mindless cannonfodder troops available, so a sudden increase in army size isn't too surprising, though it could also be due to a random event; land nations can get a sudden pile of militia too. http://dom3.servegame.com/wiki/Main_Page is an excellent resource for beginners and veterans alike to check up on info like this, though it's temporarily down now. :(

Edit: Also, some info can be gleaned from the titles of a pretender god. I'll use my own, Zhuge Liang, as an example. "Minister of Mountains" because he has earth, "God of the Celestial Bodies" because he has astral, and "Symbol of Unchallenged Victory" because he'll be the eventual winner :D Not everything is described of course, so the titles only give you hints.
