Only half of the time. The other half they're human.

Cherish the small victories. You got a lychanthropos' amulet stuck on my national hero.

"Ooooh, what's this?"
"DON'T PICK THAT UP!"

I've been trying to do that ever since it got stuck on my guy.  I'm sure your national hero will enjoy the regeneration and homicidal rage.

In all honesty, I think forting was a good option - I've noticed just how much less gold I'm getting after going on a troop / mage production spurt.

[Bluerobin]

Yeah, putting money into forts lets you catch up quickly later on troops and mages if you want and doesn't create upkeep you have to worry about. If you're not actively under attack, it's a pretty nice use of money.

Bill Gates sucks.  I was almost done with my turn, when everything shuts down without any sort of warning, and I'm staring at windows updating.

And I even let windows update earlier today to avoid this crap.

Now I have to redo my turn, from scratch.  Worst of all, I'm not nearly as attentive to detail when I'm redoing something, so congratuations Abysia and Pangea: Windows just gave you victory.

Anyone know how to disable auto-shutdown on Windows 7?
EDIT: I figured it out.  Annoying thing: Only options are "manually install updates" or "let Windows shut down my computer to install updates".  What I'd really like is "Install updates when I shut down the blood thing, and stop annoying me."

Dang Waterplouf, not the most satisfying turn for you, eh?
Don't get discouraged though. Analyse your mistakes, and redesign your strategy. Although it might be too late for your underwater holdings, your surface forces are still considerable.

Yeah... I don't really know what to do. I was really hopeful with the dispel spell, but I don't have the adequate gem pool to go with mass of it. I will fight to the end though, even if the future of atlantis seems pretty grim...

[Korbac]

As we're all discussing negatives, I'd like to apologise to my allies and myself if my last five or six turns have been marred by tiredness and / or drink.

[Il Palazzo]

Frankly, with my current gem income I can reliably freeze the seas every second turn, which means that there's no way the dispel could actually work. Unless you manage to kill my national hero who's casting it, befoe I get a hold of some replacement/magic booster to get some other mage to Water 6.

[Karlito]

Bah! Opportunistic Jomon eating up my undead-- do you know how many turns it took to gather those together?

[Korbac]

Let me note I did not attack you - and now I will have my buttocks firmly clenched until I look at the turn tomorrow. 

[Karlito]

Right, you're merely attacking and occupying my future territory.

Uh, so I'm trying to use my (Ubuntu) netbook to do this turn because I'm travelling and it won't let me scroll the army setup window. Anyone know how to fix it?

[EuchreJack]

Bah! Opportunistic Jomon eating up my undead-- do you know how many turns it took to gather those together?

I'm guessing three.  Those undead plant-things grow like weeds: The hard part is finding enough commanders to ferry them around.

Attacking somebody and making it seem like you're the victim: I seem to remember you doing that when our little war started.

And if you have the gem income to "reliably freeze the sea every second turn", you can probably empower some shmuck to Water 6 with whatever boosters you've got in one or two turns (especially since you've reliable access to recruit Water 3 mages, it's not a long hike).  Assuming you're unable to summon something better by now (and I've seen your research graph: You can probably summon better).

I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but: Il Palazzo has practically won.  Look at the graphs.  Look at his total dominance of the terrain.  Note that he has the Gateway Spell: It allows him to transport armies between labs, especially between underwater and surface labs.  Note his Deadly Quartet still lives unhindered.  Frankly, I'm at a loss to see how he can possibly lose.

Doom and gloom

At least we can feel smug when he wins with an "I told you so!"
