Hmmm anyone else finding expansion rather hard ? It's difficult to build up a decent army >,< also burden of time Is killing all my old commanders D:

Depends. My expansion was slowed a lot by an early loss. But I don't feel it was actually that hard, mainly I was just incompetent with my scripting and recruiting.

Arco, don't leave us! Help is approaching!


Or at least send me all your gold and gems and set yourself to AI.

So I guess Ermor has been winning their little scuffle with Arco? The living must not stand for this.

Speaking for the subterranean portions of the living, we do not plan on standing for this!

That's the golems' job. We'll be sitting.

The Workers' Party of Ermor has reined in the rampant, destructive mentality of the previous bourgeois regime. On their agenda is nothing but an early retirement for all.

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

Whoever takes Ermor's capital and the fortress there can have all my gems and gold I have stockpiled.

Starting with Orcus, I hope.

Can I travel there through your territory?  That cool?

(forreal, though, all the pressure on ermor should allow you to make a comeback!)

It's been storming up here for a while now and while I haven't had a blackout, lot of residences in my province have. I'd appreciate a 24h extension if you happen to spot me unsubmitted with say, less than ~3 hours on the clock. I'll do my best to get in touch if we lose power. The worst seems to be over though so likely this will not come to pass, just letting you guys know.

No rest before Utopia. The worker has done their duty, and they may rest, but the gods have much to answer for still.

I should be able to keep an eye peeled for unsubmitted Vanarus turns, yeah. I'm going to be traveling the rest of the weekend, but I should have net access (and can do the admin stuff through my phone in any case). So it shouldn't be a problem, and in point of fact I might (but probably won't) be throwing up a random 12h extension for myself this next turn.

In general, are we all still okay with 28h turns?

To be honest, I'd be fine with slightly shorter (~26h) turns. It feels odd to get a turn at noon one day, 4 PM the next, and 8 PM the day after that. It's certainly not a problem, though - perhaps I ought to be spending those extra two hours planning my war with Ermor! :D

On that note, don't worry, DFNewb, Ermor's capital will fall sooner or later (though it might be Bandar Log that takes it; they're probably in the better position for that).

I bet they'd be in an even better position for that with all of DFNewb's money and gems!


edit:
By the way, I'm fine with the hosting period. While I wouldn't mind staying at 24h, I understand the rationale for 28-30ish periods - over time the 24h deadline tends to creep towards odd hours of day/night. The extra few hours allows people to better fit the submission routine into their daily schedule.

I can function with a day per turn rate too. Though I understand some people are actually busy and don't give videogames their due, daily respect. Especially when considering that diplomacy can take place between a couple of oceans and their associated timezones. Though that info is rarely time critical on a turn-by-turn basis.
