[NUKE9.13]

Robots are destroying the surface

Robots are also destroying the sky and the underground. They might have some trouble with the sea. I guess they'd just dump toxic waste in it. Maybe send a few steampunk submarines to be crushed in the tentacles of the krakens.

[adwarf]

Yes, but their efforts are futile as my leylines, and forest Slask protects can heal itself fast, very fast.

[NUKE9.13]

The futility is deliberate. Tick does not want to destroy Balin. He wishes for there to be balance. The UnLiving have been deployed to maintain the balance.

[adwarf]

Yes, but then the UnLiving shall all be destroyed (Most Likely) by the other Titans. I like how its futile though, so good work on that As for reaching the Krakens they could hunt them from ships, or send submarines, but those would be destroyed swiftly

There are Krakens in the air too. Wondering how they got there, probably either a lucky portal, or a balloon. Anyway, unless they somehow stop the Coriolis winds the island can't be fully destroyed.
 WHatever, you're just destroying the entire planet. I just wonder what Vagel7 is up too.

Slask's a god I don't really see how giving him a bow with really nice arrows, with no other actual powers is giving him too much, honestly he's not gonna have much in the way of powers outside of the forests.

Giving someone legendary weapons seems more like a god act then a Titan act to me though.

[adwarf]

No no no he just makes a tree Slask makes the weapons

[10ebbor10]

No no no he just makes a tree Slask makes the weapons

Which, again seems to be more like a god action then a Titan action:
Comparison

Light the word on fire---Flood the world- Destroy a giant mountain---Create a single tree
Seems like a waste of a titan act to me, and Slask should be able to fend for himself( I mean, he lives in the future).

[Shootandrun]

There. The Titan of the depths is dead. The Deep Ones are exterminated, and the Unliving are doomed to disappear unless someone helps them.

Simply plant one of the tooth seeds and another tree would grow, Instead of a race, I'd create a tree or iron wood and iron seeds (iron being a descriptive term and not it's actual form)  and yes he makes the weapon himself I'm a dog, can't really craft stuff.  Slask is simply the first "being" to obtain a weapon from such a tree.

Reading ongoing posts.  With regard to the power balances (e.g. how much energy is required to animate an Unliving, the effects of boons on latter play), please be aware that I am a GM with some ten years of experience.  I have gotten very, very good at mixed blessings.

Edit:  Ruling on Uldum's last act.  Partial success.  Factories destroyed, invasion countered, but portal not completely destroyed for plot reasons.  Portal is suppressed and guarded by the spirits of the Deep Ones, but ultimately can be re-opened through magic.

Bluh bluh. You're no fun.

How am I going to fix this?
Tick still has an act+death left, mind.

I don't want to just blatantly undo/'fix' the consequences of your actions (in fact, having ghosts haunt Sepin is totally cool- it already is the Moon of Death). But Tick cannot let the balance be upset. With the moon of Death cut of from the world, life will run rampant. It'd be a disaster.
Plus I really do want the UnLiving to be around in the Age of Gods so that people can mess around with them.

...ok, right. Could you not close the portals? That's blatantly undoing something in a way which cuts off part of the game world. The only real way I can fix that is by re-instating the portals (magitech spacecraft is pushing it a tad too far, even for my tastes). Aren't murderous ghosts enough?

[Shootandrun]

Closing the portals was part of the 'Endless exile' thingy. I could leave the portals open and just say that the shadows can't leave Sepin, but why? Gods won't need a portal to go bewteen the worlds and mortals will only face a desertic wasteland inhabited by murderous spirits.

Also, if you want  to save the Unliving you can put them to sleep or build factories new factories. The way I did it was to make it clear that the Unliving were now trapped in Balin.

[Iituem]

Hence my ruling on them.  Some things I will mitigate the success of on grounds of Rule of Fun.  The portal to Balin thus remains in existence but broken - providing a loophole for it to be re-opened in the game proper, along with access to all the broken factories and the wealth of the Unliving.

Plus, at least some Unliving will survive intact or semi-intact through the end of Turn 0, just as other artefacts will.  Whether they survive as a race is, yes, still up for grabs here.

Anyhow, second ruling is re: sinking the True Mountain.  All good, but you've crushed a lot of the Apsu in the process - that which remains has been forced down to almost the magma layer, and it has only a handful of little tunnels back to the surface, which only reach the central island (Imrihamun).  I'm adjusting the map accordingly.  If anybody was hoping for an Underdark style Apsu that spans the world, they'll need to make that happen for one reason or another.
