Pangaea can`t be evil, they are such a charming people.

Yes, you'll want to download llamabeast's fixed versions of CBM (link). The mod we are using for this game (attached to the first post) includes these fixes as well.

Evil? This saddens us. We try to rid the world of the mind hunt menace and the thanks we get is constant attacks from the scheming nation of Man.

Speaking of threats, please note that Man has built a fort in almost all of his provinces. What kind of warlike nation does something like that?

Ha! So Man, you see the ancient friendship between Pangaea and Eriu is not susceptible to your treachery.


BREAKING NEWS: Apparently the not so ancient friendship between Ulm and Pangaea is however susceptible to Man's treachery as Ulm has now given notice that they will attack in three month's time. So be it. The people of the forest will stand together against the "civilized" nations of men!

Buzzsaw, please enable messaging on your account (unfortunately it's off by default). As you might imagine, I'm interested in talking to the only nation that isn't at war with me.

So Pangaea fears our mighty trampling fortresses!

We ask: Who is the warmonger? He who invests his income into walls to build refuge for his people, to protect his population from the constant threat of invading armies, or he who invests in an ever growing military force?

And if We look at the poor nation of Arcoscephale right now we would rather build two castles per province.

Well everyone chooses his friends by himself. If this friend turns out to be a petrifying poisonous gorgon We are not the one to criticize the choice. We will only marvel at the beautiful statues decorating Eriu landscapes, when We finally liberate his provinces

This is good news for all peoples who want to be free from Pangaean suppression. Stand fast, Arcoscephale, the free peoples will stand together and rid the world from the horrific abomination the gorgon is.

PMs enabled for those who want to bo.....I mean..... work with Eriu.

All patches are up to date, thanks for the heads up.

I`m not so great with the phrases/words you all use and use well.
So it comes down to me speaking in what I know best...buzzenesse.



We isn`t afraid of no stinkin` Gorghuns.In sureness, we gonna have orselfes a gorghunshomrg

Okay maybe a little too radical.I think that Samhain will never let me sub again after I drop the IQ of his people by 40.

Hmm, Eriu seems to have transformed into Warhammer Ogres. Well, no matter, we in Pangaea aren't a very sophisticated bunch ourselves.


And we see the bards of Man have been spinning tales again. Time to set the record straight.

We would suggest the warmonger is he who continuously attacks Pangaea despite never having once been attacked. And as we previously explained, our war against Arco is for the benefit of the world. Every nation will rest easier knowing that they won't face risk free mind hunts. And of course we first got involved in that war to protect our friend Eriu.

Now this is really going too far. Man knows full well that the gorgon was suffering from an illness called "overpoweredness" and that she has retired to the country. She spends her days reading [researching], talking walks [site searching], and engaging in arts & crafts [forging]. She will of course defend herself if Man's thugs break into her house [the fort she's in] but, as I'm sure Man knows, she is not engaging in offensive action.

Furthermore, even if she were engaged in offensive action she would not attack the noble nation of Eriu. And even if she were possessed by insanity and did so, Eriu is quite capable of causing her to have a bad day.

Well, that was one battle where I was really glad I had berserking troops. Even so, I think if Arco's mages had had one more turn to launch their spells that might have gone the other way.

Thanks for an extremely unfun game where I was ganked 2 or 3 on one the whole game.

Valerius, I will be sure to try to gank you 3 on one in a future game.

Well it would have made only a minor difference. It was only one of your armies, while it was virtually all Arco had left. So Arco is down for good, or will be in one or two turns. Much faster than I had wished for.
Btw, I don't really get why the revelers are so effective. I made the same experience, but just from the stats I had expected them to do worse.

So you really retired the gorgon. Well it's your choice, but for me, you can use it in whichever way you want. I'll try to ward against her in whichever way I can. My Wardens and Knights of Avalon have rather high MR, so I guess they would survive long enough to do some damage.

It's sad you had no fun in this game.
I do not know what went on to let you face overwhelming odds, but you sure did nothing to improve your situation. You did never answer to diplomatic contacts. I made several proposals to join forces. I could have aided you with money, gems, and even items (Your Son of titans would have looked much different in the last battle with a charcoal shield, a firebrand, a pendant of luck, a blacksteel fullplate and an amulet of resiliance for example). Perhaps we could even have coordinated military operations to cut his western access to you.
But you never ever gave a useful answer. All you did here in the forum was complain and weep. So how do you expect anyone could have helped you?

This is just ridiculous!
