It's more that my mages only got 2 thunder strikes out instead of the 4 I was hoping for. The skinshifters were just supposed to hold the line while the mages took things out.

[Karlito]

Your best bet is probably to supply them all with air gems so they can reduce their fatigue (which is going to be pretty expensive). I suppose hypothetically air boosters would be cheaper in the long run, though you'd have to use them successfully in like 10 major battles for the initial investment to pay off.

You've also got those Volvas with astral magic that could be communion slaves, though you'd have to supply your would-be sabbath masters with bloodslaves so they don't take 99 fatigue right off the bat.

[Bluerobin]

Yup. Pretty good summary of the ideas I went through in submitting my next turn. I'm not sure if it'd be worth it to use völvas to soak up fatigue since their cost is fairly similar to the thunder strikers themselves oh I just took another look and they're closer to half-cost.. I don't really have enough forts to make enough of them yet though. Once I get some more research and I can use them to add some magical flexibility it might be worth it. I need to look into all of the details of communions again, I don't think I've ever actually used one.

[TempAcc]

I might go AI, I'm tangled with some academically aligned things lately after my thesis' presentation (the good kind of stuff) which will last till december, and I'm not really planning out or doing anything special with my turns. I had no idea what I was doing anyway since I had no plan again , I'm just really out of time in general to make anything fun out of this and submit turns regulary.

[EuchreJack]

Well, even if you don't put effort into your turns, your nation is still providing more resistance to Il Palazzo than if you go AI.

And once you cease to be a threat, he'll go after that annoying guy that has been taking his territory and generally moving folks against him.  AKA me.

So, I'm rather partial to you not going AI.  We could extend the turns a bit, if you think you'll have time a couple times a week.  Plus, it'll slow things down, and I'm certain the game will still be here in December.

Remember: Once you go AI, you can't go back.

[Il Palazzo]

Yeah, I'd be in favour of keeping you here, TempAcc, even if it means extending the hosting period.
If you really need to go, though, perhaps it'd be better to look for a replacement first.
After all, Atlantis is strong at the moment, even if also in the precarious situation of being invaded.

I agree with the "replacement better than AI" idea, although I'd much prefer TempAcc remain at the helm.

I'd also like to hear more about this "invasion".  Perhaps the Community-at-Large can help out with tactics or sympathy gifts, especially if the perpetrator of the invasion is Everyone's Favorite Squid.

[Korbac]

I myself *almost* found myself in this situation, so you have my sympathies. I'm up for making the game bi - weekly if it helps.

While I agree, I'd prefer the game to at least stay weekly.  But if bi-weekly keeps us all in, then I'm all for it.

[Shadowgandor]

We could always run a second game along this one with a smaller group of more active people?

[Bluerobin]

Oooh I vote for that. Either the draft game or the UnitGen one would be cool.

If TempAcc ends up wanting to bow out and look for a replacement, changing the title of the thread should bring in someone who wants to play. I got the feeling there are at least one or two people who might want in.

[Karlito]

Don't go, the seal hunters need you.

But if it comes to it, I'd rather we at least looked for a replacement before setting Atlantis to AI.

[Bluerobin]

Oh, also, I voted for you! You can't leave now!

[Karlito]

And he voted for me! Where will my motivation go when all I have for support is Unnamed Other?

[Shadowgandor]

My vote would go for UnitGen! That looked awesome!
