Yes yes, smile and pat yourself on the back and keep retreating that army of yours. Once Eblis has gathered enough Eagle King beaks for his highly effective dietary supplement, I'm sure he'll be able to spare a moment of his attention for the nest of lizards in his backyard. In fact, generation 4 Melquarts are rolling out of the factories at this very moment.

C'tis stalled despite an extension. The question is: is the hosting interval manageable for everyone?

My own fault, dude. I was exhausted and hit the hay at 1:00am - my problem.

In other news, bye bye Melquart, hello shiny items. :)

I was wondering what was up since no new turns had arrived during the night yesterday, sorry to hear you had to stall.

The interval is manageable for me, altough I aways send my turns at certain hours so I can be sure the next time limit falls on an hour I can pick dom3 up and submit my turn, to make sure the time limit doesn't end while I'm still on college. Thats why I don't upload them faster :I

Would evrybody be o.k. with changing the interval to 30h? This should help with the problem of deadlines drifting towards the working/college hours for those of you in the occupied Indian territiories.

I'm sure you can come back. You did kill one of my four big armies!

I'm good with a longer interval. It's been close for me a couple times and while I should be ok if we kept it, this will probably help.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

In CBM they're area 1, so you can't use an air shield. Here they're single target (as in vanilla), but they have a "boulder impact" effect. While an air shield would block the initial hit, your guys will still take damage from the "boulder impact" (which does -16 damage, but I assume still adds the strength of the Ancient One). So they can be partially deflected.

And this my friends, is why ancient ones are so good at killing super combatants in the lastest patches. Specialy when they're all ordered to fire at the largest targets c:

But yea, karlito is right, the projectile will only hit one target, but the boulder impact will happen simultaneously, hitting anything in a small radius. I think this also counts for jotun stone hurlers.

Oh come now Bluerobin, if you want to execute all your mages surely there are better ways than sending them to meet my province defense. Now you're just embarrassing yourself.
