hmm all my neighbours are warring me.. my plan is to not die but it might be a little difficult.

My most awesome battle was against my most trusted ally (accident, no betrayal like arco) and cost me a rather substantial army (I didn't even win)

Arco and Jomon are teaming up against me so their southern neighbours would be wise to take advantage once my corner is conquered they will have to go your way anyhow so better team up with me now before they hvae my lands and income.

Ok, there's something serious I don't understand...

Aezeal (bless his little socks) invaded me. And my province defense defended but my army didn't. He of course beat my province defense.

Why didn't my army fight?!

PS: Nice one Jomon!

@James: Was your army set on defend or patrol? If their orders were to defend, then they didn't fight with the PD because they were garrisoning the castle. If they were on patrol, they should have fought with the PD.

Jomon has this stack o' troops on my border. I hope they aren't planning to do something rash, suicidal even.

Well Jomon has an army on my border too.. probably just managable though the fact I'm busy with arco is a lil hassle but since even his army + pretender + a ****load of mages didn't give him much more kills than my army did I''m not so impressed with him..

still it's 3 on one (I was already in a skirmish with pytium before traitor arco broke his NAP (Jomon hasn't attacked yet and is honoring his NAP and our break-up agreement I would like to mention) So a bit of help for the little guy in the northwest corner would be appreciated..

Zenzei kill Jomon since he can only focus half (probably less) of his strenght on you.. you should be able to damage him and take lands.. You can have his capitol if we destroy him and put equal effort into it

Change hosting interval for the holidays?

Hi,
Could we increase the hosting interval for this week to 48 hours, or if possible from now on? I have to do lots of micromanaging (I have a love/hate relatioship with blood economy ) and I do not have plenty of time right now. Of course with quickhost enabled we can run them faster if we can but I have a lot of pressure right now to test the tactics and such on time.
What do you think?
Karlem

I'm ok with 48h hosting should majority of players want it but I'd personally like to stick with 24h hosting as long as possible.

@Karlem: Testing tactics is overrated. It's much more fun to just script in game and watch the results, victories taste better and defeats are even more bitter.

let us just go for 48 hours. We would probably be quickhosting alot anyway, and I am starting to get nervous about the game hosting before I can get to the computer!

Attention all people that have a NAP agreement with Patala, I am officialy moving the time to a three turn wait, so I can remember what is going on!

24 hours with extension if needed would be best for me but if it has to be 48.. well then it's 48

I think at least one of my armies should win next turn
either jomon or arco should get heavy losses . they are trying to pass my natural borders now so my men will fight extra hard Let's see if you dare siege me

(I guess this will buy me some extra time, arco is a cowardly traitor so I guess I should be able to recruit some extra troops to destroy that MANTICORE pretender )

Ghill: "I am officialy moving the time to a three turn wait, so I can remember what is going on!" I'm not sure I'm following what you mean by this, could clarify a bit?
