Cradle to the Grave--for noobies with a record of no staling--FULL

[Numahr]

Wait to meet Air 2 + Water 2 mages, like it happened to me last turn: lightning bolts, 1 quickened War Minotaur... on your expansion army who expected just 30 militia and slingers!

Sopita, you have a PM.

adder83, you have a PM. Answer it, or PERISH.

Wow, Vanheim and Ermor are all over each other like a nasty rash, and its really not working out well for either of us. Our expansion parties have now run into each other THREE TIMES

(And to make matters worse, through some fluke of timing in all three occassions I've arrived first, had to fight the bloody indies, then gone head to head with my neighbors from Vanheim - curse you, fate!)

Saros, I'll PM you later today, keen to cut a deal that doesn't result in us death spiraling while everyone else streaks ahead.

What's the ratio of provinces to nations on this map? Wondering if Saros and I are unlucky, or if this is going to be happening a lot.

[Saros]

I think its like 19-20 provinces apiece. I sent PM about my expansion direction but the forum seems to have eaten them =/

[e] 221 land 22 water provinces with 10 people.

Ouch. On the plus side, there should be some decent recruitables there hopefully, once you've won?

Two messages just popped up, so I PM'd back. The short version: all good

Things could be worse... two words: Dark Vines.

Hey, guys. I woke up this morning to do my turn and realized I couldn't get out of bed. I'm pretty sick, so I've delayed hosting by 24 hours. Chances are I'll still manage to get it in today if I feel better later on, but I put a delay in there just to make sure I don't accidentally sleep through the deadline and stale.

[earwicker7]

Alright, I managed to squeeze out my turn.
