I've actually found these last few turns of you trying to kill my monolith rather amusing .  According to my battle report, the Monolith had 65 hp left after the battle, so close enough I guess.

I wouldn't mind playing out a few more turns but I'm willing to call the game should everyone else be willing.  Believe it or not I've actually started to recover from the whole Utterdark situation somewhat.  I've started summoning more upkeep free commanders to replace all those rather singular use monkey mages that are disappearing (horrible battle magic, only good for reanimation).  The Agarthan attack on my capital took out a lot of my good commanders but they were bound to abandon soon anyway due to upkeep so not a total loss.  As long as there are labs lying around in my territory my recruitment wont really be that inhibited either and I've learned a rather valuable lesson that most undead are really only useful as a chaff shield (so I should stop using them without some decent ranged support).

Overall, I think I've really just been the least affected by this whole darkness scenario.  If it wasn't for my complete failure at utilizing magic to sway battles in my favor earlier, I'd probably be reaping more benefits from this global than Agartha even.

Edit:  Oh and I pretty sure that if we summoned the prophet, it would still maintain its priestly magic but I don't know for sure.

What I've always wondered is what happens if a mage casts a global and then is enslaved/charmed by another nation?

I had a grand total of one action this turn. I selected my final stack of units then chose "storm castle".

If you want to end it, former ally, I wouldn't mind calling it, but I'm still having some fun, whenever I get to play, its a very nice "United struggle vs the big bad" feeling, while my other game is just sadness of two lost turns making it unwinnable and again, I can only slow down the beat down :/

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   Big Bad is a nice descrition in this case as Agartha did plummet the world into darkness. Oh and Part 8 is out now. It looks to have a little bit of diplo in it for those interested though I don't remember exactly how much, I just know its there because one of the preview thumbnails had it in it.

[Kebooo]

I'm not sure if I'm amused or depressed by the slow emptying of my provinces by random shade attacks that my PD can't hit.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   Part 9 is up. Also a question. As it is I am not paying too much attention to this round as I am out of it. Do you want me to turn off the time limit on turn submission, just up it a bit, or maybe even shorten it? Of course I do watch the thread somewhat so I can postpone hosting at request still but if you want it make sure you get it in as early as possible so I have the time to notice it.

[gman8181]

I'm fine with the turn length as is, not sure about anyone else.

I still think it's funny that you thought the monkey scouts were mine despite the clear message, "Agartha attacking (province name)" at the top of the screen for each battle.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   I saw a monkey so my brain shutdown and just kept repeating "Oh its a monkey, the monkeys sent it" over and over. Its one of those things where if you expect something and you see what you expected you don't dig deeper because why would you bother?

Part 10 is up now

[gman8181]

Not sure if you are aware of this but you can set mages to cast ritual spells every month by using shift m.  Its pretty useful for site searching spells.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   I knew you could but did not know if it worked correctly with search spells. Does it automatically stop once it has searched every possible place?

[gman8181]

I believe so.  I know it works its way up the province list starting from lower province numbers and going up to the higher ones.  Even if it didn't automatically stop, you could just pull up the nation summary (f1) and check to see how far along the search is going.

[Karlito]

It does, in fact, automatically stop. They won't search a province that's already been searched.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

Well that makes my life a few thousand times easier with gem searching then.

Part 11 is up
