Aaaand, its about time for a bump for Role and Varee.

E: Also, I've decided to wait a while (probably a few months) to start my next game of this (which is pretty much done otherwise), because we have had quite a few of these games going on recently, and I suspect waiting a while for the next one will increase interest.

That makes sense-- I'm sure there'd be plenty of people potentially interested in this kind of game, though super-long term games don't appeal to everyone.

Post a turn in later. No flash access at the moment. Or for a day or two.

I spoke a bit too soon to be honest (especially since I wasn't really feeling a lot of pressure given that the game isn't going to run for quite a while). I'm not quite done, but it should be completely finished (barring about a billion balance problems) by some point on monday. I'll PM them to you then.
E: It would also be really awesome if you could add a OR (eg. you need either a engi guild or a wizards tower to build a aqueduct (but not both (although you could have both)) and XOR (you could build either a wizards tower or engi guild (but not build both in one city under any circumstances)) condition for buildings. I understand it would be a lot of work, but it would be quite helpful for modding conditions.

The Irish muster to expel the Northumbrians, but will they succeed before Arklow is sacked? Coenwulf and Causantin still face off in what is rapidly becoming Mercian land. The south, aside from the peaceful Welsh, is still awash with many armies of the Wessex saxons. Will their rampaging through Mercia ever come to an end?

Spoiler: Win Conditions (click to show/hide)

For the wincons below: a nation is considered defeated if it has no cities and no units and no reasonable chance of completing its wincon. Ireland is considered 'taken over' by a non-Irish power if they're the only one with size 5 cities and greater on it (and have a size 6 city on it themselves) and Ireland doesn't control more then 50% of the Island.

Irish Kingdom: Take over 80% of Ireland 
Mercia: Defeat the other Anglo-Saxon nations (Northumbria, Wessex) OR Defeat the Britons (Picts/Welsh/Irish).
Wessex: Hold Winchester until the Danes come. You can lose and retake it, but if it's ever destroyed or if it's owned by a foreign nation in 665AD, you'll lose.
Wales: Survive until the Danes come. This means 'have at least one Welsh territory and one Welsh unit alive' in 665 AD.
Pictland: Defeat the Anglo-Saxon Nations (Northumbria, Mercia, Wessex) OR take over Ireland
Northumberland: Defeat the Picts OR take over Ireland

The game can end prematurely if one faction wipes out all other factions, which is also considered a win. Win conditions are only checked in 665 AD and you only can win if you're not defeated.

Hey, is there a policy of kibitzing? Because I see somewhere between one and three players making major strategic blunder(s).

I'd appreciate any help you'd have to offer, Vanigo, but I believe that would be cheating, and if I make my bed, I have to lay in it. Besides, fighting two opponents is kinda inevitable, here, since Wessex has decided to go to war with me out of spite or something, while Pictland and I have a conflict of interest in the north.

[lemon10]

Just going to throw a bump out there for Zanz. It would be nice to be able to get this turn run soon.
