@bout Abysia : true, the counterattack of Ulm against Abysia has been very impressive, some nice little battles around there although I confess that I would not have bid a single gem on Ulm after the initial offensive of Abysia. That's a good lesson : do not rest near a vampire's fort.

I originally posted offering to sub in for Abysia to give them a last stand. But Hadrian had already sorted the problem by setting Abysia AI by the time I contacted him (and Abysia was the last turn outstanding for hosting). So I then went back and edited my message to the above.

My thought was everyone would just ignore my edited message, and this would help avoid confusion regarding where I'm talking about subbing in to make a last stand for Abysia one minute, but yet they ended up as AI the next turn. But obviously my plan resulted in an epic fail as evidenced by this very explanation

OK, sorry

Destroyer of Worlds (d9a4b2, I think). I'm not sold on him as SC, so I thought he could use ranged attacks to suppot initial expansion, then jumpstart a blood economy, and once that was up and running, with precision and penetration boosters, he could support a real army. He was cursed by a lizard shaman on turn 3, and chopped up by barbarians on turn 4, with afflictions piling up ridiculously quickly.

The vampire count you see near my territory did not affect me. Patala gets elephants, and I should have used them for expansion. I agree I should have sought peace, but I wasn't getting into blood with him dead, and my mages are also my priests, so by calling god, I was lagging in research. By turn 6 my situation was pretty hopeless. Bad luck, and worse decisions by me, and no good expansion routes.

See you next time

The last armies of Gath have been banned out of our sacred land, let the people of Arcoscephale and his allies sing and rejoice !

Alas, the Evil Priests left behind them a great deal of pain and destruction : during the few month they ruled the Sami Mantle, the two thirds of the inhabitants of our capitol have been slaughtered through blood hunt and pillage, ruined through taxes, and all the buildings of the City uselessly destroyed.

The people of Arcoscephale claims for vengeance. This is fair but futile : the Ennemy has been wipped and is no more haunting this world. So what ? Ladies and gentlemen, have pity and mercy of us. Any whisky around here in order to warm our bleeding hearts ? We shall gladefully trade any barrel of the Divine Liquor for 10 astral pearls, just PM.

you and all 4 of them lol. Go baalz!

[Baalz]

Unlikely as it is that I'll be able to fight off such a massive alliance after failing to secure a single ally myself, I will make them bleed like pigs. To the few players *not* attacking me you might want to consider what's going to happen when I'm not killing swarms of these guys each turn anymore. Marignon urgently calls for the last couple "independent" nations to rally to their banner. After I fall your owly slim hope will be that they turn on each other before eating the rest because they'll collectively have about 3 times the power of everyone else left.

Sorry, but blame your own well-known ingenuity for such a popularity. And maybe too fast expansion. You thought your neighbors wouldn't be concerned while you kill us one by one? I prefer to bleed like a pig now to having no chance later.

Do not listen to the silver tongue of the demon overlord of marignon. We are a group of nations who took it upon us to defeat marignon with great costs to our empires to protect the world from his rule.

After his attack and the following destruction of Caelum, everyone should see, that if we do not stand together against marignon, we will be killed one by one by him.

But sadly we have to rapport, that marignon has already a slave empire called bogarus, who took it upon themselves to walk around half the world, to engage me in my back.

btw. LA Marignon played by Baalz should be treated as LA Ermor and dealt with accordingly.

Well, this looks like straight baalzophobia. We may consider this new kind of pathology as another pernicious effect of the dominion of Dom3.

Do you still want you dominions 3, girls ?

And errrr, talking about Caelum, he stalled three turns in a rows, better set him to IA I guess.
