The game was prematurely started. Won't mention names. But we'll need to wait for Gandalf to reset the game before you can put in your pretenders again.

Repeated for emphasis: do not "start the game". I believe this time that option will be removed and I'll start the game manually.

So, bit of a delay, I will post here when the game is back up for joining.

Okay game is restarted. Same port as before. Get pretenders in!

Tryfan · #13 October 22nd, 2010, 03:20 AM

Still waiting for pretender from Atlantis, Hinnom, and Niefelheim. The person who was trying to register has not gotten in touch with me nor gotten their pretender in; I will give them tomorrow to do so or I'll open the game back up to a seventh player.

Unfortunately I won't have time today to submit my pretender. You can expect him/her/it tomorrow morning (European time).

Thats fine rotarr, just you left now, we can wait until tomorrow.

Everyone else has gotten theirs in so expect the game to start late tonight (NA time) or early tomorrow!

In the current setting, where land nations can expect about 15 provinces each, it's alright.

The smaller peninsula however is a deathtrap, period. Doubly so if your strat hangs around high resource, cap only units/commanders, since you're guaranteed to have your capital border 2+ water provinces which will be, if not entirely inaccessible, at least claimed and contested by Atlantis in our game. Those resources you were banking on are going bye-bye. So's that early expansion.

Yes, I'm sort of sweating this right now, why do you ask ?

Best of luck everyone.

Keep your toques on...
