its an deal.

[Vanigo]

2 things
1. misunderstood wall o techs, fixing
2. i already had crop rotation so why is it one of my free techs?

Oh, there it is, all the way at the bottom. Evocation, then.

Vanigo:

Can fireball warhammers be enchanted? Could you have Volcanic Fireball Warhammers, for instance?

No, for the most part. +Attack and +magic attack are different; volcanic provides the former, and doesn't do any good on a unit with a magic melee attack. I guess a weapon enchantment that doesn't raise attack would work, though.

What about something that only applies to melee attacks, like my gauntlets?

Also normal attack only. Anything that doesn't specifically say it increases magic attack doesn't.

[Ahra]

so i take that as evocation wont be attained from Secrets of the spirits?

[lemon10]

Okay, how about this. Are any of those techs I already have or am likely to get very soon? If so, you could trade me for it, and then you could research alchemical metallurgy in its place.

If you trade me metallurgy, ill step up my schedule for researching alchemical metallurgy, and give you 4 (free) labor worth of alloy making assuming you give me the ingredients.
My research schedule will go like this, Homesteading->Alchemy->Alchemical Metallurgy

Yesss... I'll swap that for Spirit-calling. And also, since you don't have wind magic available anymore, I'll swap storm magic out for golemcraft.

Still thinking about this. On a related subject, what do you want to buy those dire boars through your roads/connections?


Also, does anyone have spare iron for sale for non-military purposes? I'm not positive I'll need it, but it's looking likely.

[Nirur Torir]

Vanigo: Sorry for repeating a question, but I think it was answered months ago. Are my galleys able to participate in fleet actions over the ocean? Extra firepower would be handy against seamonsters, even though only idiots the most brave and noble of gnomes would risk their lives fighting against sea monsters from a mere galley.

I'll try to get my turn done over this weekend.

Why aren't more people going for Literature first?

I'm likely to want better armor this age. Happerry, Ahra: Are either of you willing to pursue contracts for that wonderful plate mail armor and tower shields, after you get Expert Armorsmithing? I'll provide the steel.

[Ahra]

eer, maybe? but youŽll have to zeppelin it back to your place.
want the enchanted stuff?

[IronyOwl]

Vanigo: Do tower shields count against heavy armor limitations?


Nirur, I think you and Happerry are the only ones who get Literature.

Also, my Navigator-equipped galley crew objects to your meatshields-who-can't-fly-to-safety scaring observations slander that only gnomes doing this are awesome.

The distance shouldn't be too much of a problem, with my navy protecting trade.
I do want it enchanted, but my enchantment magic is better. I think I'll want to buy at least 4 ember rubies from you this age, to use in enchantments.

What do you want in exchange? It looks like five labor for a set of platemail+tower shield. I have a variety of gems, an array of production services, and armed forces unafraid of mercenary work. I could, say, build you a caravel if you wanted to procrastinate on your naval research.

Oops, I assumed everybody had it.
I publicly apologize for my accidental slander against your forcibly creative naval personnel.

No.

Yes, they do.

[adwarf]

If you have the space I wouldn't mind being an antagonist.

[Ahra]

i would want to see whats further along the west coast... that ship sounds like an delicious payment.

[Ahra]

back to the front page with ye.

Any turn in sight irony-niruir?

[IronyOwl]

Yeah, sorry. Basics laid out, need to remember what I'd decided to do with all that labor and figure out what/if ship I'm raising this turn.


EDIT: Done. Sorry about, um, the half-dozen simultaneous diplomatic missions. If that's too many you can just have some of them look for beasts this turn.
