someone made a suggestion at some point (one of the wish list threads i think) where there would be a separate HoF for pretenders and one for everything else. Plus a bonus for pretenders on the HoF a la bonus ability. Doesn't make a ton of sense for most games, but it definitely would here.

I am glad I did my normal "send commanders in to retreat" thing so I didn't have to do any worrying.

All praise King Dragon! Let us hope the rein of this Lizard King will be a prosperous one for us.

Everything looks good. My troops successfully managed to sit on their asses and do nothing. At least I can see my neighbors now.

Heehee. If the game is "broken" its because I broke it.
Making an "all nations" mod creates something very different than the devs wanted. I will let them know of the quirks we see but I wouldnt expect any kind of "fix" to show up.

We expected a different game. Its different.
Gee - either the devs, or the more vocal of their assistants, assured that all the nations could be played at once. I remember, "You just need a trivial mod to play them all" being said. My attitude was, "No, we have _fewer_ nations to choose from (in part because of the lack of themes)", but again, "it's okay - a simple mod fixes that".

You'd think it was american politics instead of indie game development. Feh. We have _less_ variety within a game, and more bugs.

Well, since it impacts everyone almost equally, the bug is not *that* annoying.
I'll live with it.
Almost equally? Don't think so. Actually, it very much favors those nations like Abysia who essentially can't hire spies in the early game, since spies & scouts are worthless.

The argument is moot. The bug was around for one turn then disappeared. Lets move on...

It seems, that my agression is progression strategy worked. The laughing stuff is that I got mercs for less then 200 gold. I was thinking that in a game with 62 players you need to bet a lot more, but then again, everyone tought the same, and did not bet, since they don't worth the price.

Offering for gold: S9; D3, N3 Anyone interested? Drop a mail to: [email protected]
Thanks a lot.

Default Turn 3.

Up from the arctic depths of Time itself, the primordial Jotnar arise in anger to bring unto the world the wreak of Ragnarock.

Crops wither, brother fights brother, even the sun itself shall hide it's face in craven terror.

Sword time, crow time, wolf time...it has begun.
