I don't want to denounce anyone but I have to admit that I didn't pull that one all by my own. I did some organizing here and there thoug ;)

Yeah, because I'm clearly the strongest nation still in the game right now. Right behind, "I have more mages than you do" Abysia, and "I have more SC than you do" Niefelheim.

I have been in wars the entire game and it is showing.

Edit: And I'm way to busy to try to use diplo to convince C'tis to attack atlantis or nief btw. Not that C'tis would be any good. Seeing as he cannot even kill hinnom.

As C'tis has cast Arcane nexus, we must destroy him now, or be forever banished to tartarus.

Who is with me?

Anybody have a high S caster? We need to dispel this yesterday.

AN? Really? I wouldn't use it myself unless in position to fight everyone left afterwards.

Well, as he is already at war with Abysia, and only shares a small border with atlantis. (who has most of his armies at my side, and the rest under a sea of ice). It isn't that odd, it only gives niefelheim reason to attack him. And he was moving his troops towards me. So it is a rather smart move.

Ps, I have no intel on C'tis, I can only see one of his lands (next to the hinnom cap). So I do not know how much help I can be.

Nief, I propose a peace treaty until C'tis is destroyed.

Atlantis, I'm sorry but I just cannot let that army escape. It will be destroyed.

Have to say I haven't cast it myself in a MP yet so I don't have a feel on what kind of income is to be expected. But from the spell description alone, it should be big. In fact, it shouldn't take long before you can readily recast it if needed.

So maybe we don't have a choice here? I'll have to look things closer and will get back to it tomorrow.

Kind of annoying, as even if I haven't made too big gains, the war has been fun so far. And my new and improved invasion army vol. 2 (now with more evocation magicks) was just about to be tested. :)

Well, if we do not dispell it now, it will probably be able to be chain casted to bigger and bigger hights. I think he gets about 50 gems from my gem use. So I don't know about the rest. But it will be a lot.

And as we need at least 2 turns to dispell it, one to pool the gems, and one to cast dispell (and hope it sticks). It is usually hopeless.

And, all the big astral nations have been killed.

Ow, and as a gesture of good faith, the remote attack spells on you have been canceled, and further troops have been moved back. I do of course want my lands back. Feel free to take back omia and the grey mountains.

We don't like C'tis either. Not sure about the chances of a dispel, however -- it might be best simply to invade in force.

Ahhh... just to let you know, even with AN we're still not in the top region of gem income.

It's not as if you'd get damaged by Ctis having the nexus up - I just need astral instead of nature gems. Honestly, it's no astral corruption.



Btw, it's a nice gesture of the evil invader Llanka to call for a crusade now.

As I never meant harm to Niefel or Atlantis (whom you attacked both), I suggest that Niefel and Atlantis continue to battle Llanka - because Ctis is not the biggest nation and if you just gang up on me on his whim you can be sure that he will sit back and backstab you just as your armies are on the way.

Otherwise, feel free to try everything. It's not that Ctis is not prepared.
We would prefer though to continue with this incredable ridiculous situation around Hinoms capital (Thumbs up for hanging on!) ;)

Exuse me? I never started any invasion. Nief honerably broke his nap with me and gave me the turns as we agreed to prepare. After that it has been mostly he who was in my lands.

Atlantis refused to honor the nap and felt the results of that action. Justifying it by somehow using the words of some frenzied "Charlie Sheen" as the words of the mighty Mystery, The Earth Monster, Lord of Flames, Lord of the Ocean Underneath.

Mictlan also invaded me first. I didn't start it. I finished it.

Apart from that, casting either AN or the gift of natures bounty is such a huge boon that any nation who has will be super powerful. I would be surprised if it did not give you at least 50 astral gems each turn.

And calling the war ravaged Lankan lands powerful, or re-framing us as invaders while we have so far been only defending ourselves from other invaders is not that fair. While we have always been aggressive in our dealings with invaders and other evildoers that want to destroy us. We have never drawn swords against followers of other gods without them starting it first. When we hit, we tend to hit hard, like a good ape should.

We are proud race of apes, we keep our agreements.

Like we promised our followers eternal life. We are providing that. All that have fallen have risen again. To serve their new god in eternal life.

Like we have promised Niefelheim to remove our troops and halt our attacks on his homelands as a gesture of peace. He can check this himself, next month our orders will be completed.

Like we have promised Atlantis to destroy their army.

Like we now see that you C'tis also fight with words and half-truths. You are also not to be trusted. Prepare to be banished to the realm of eternal torment. Odia, Princess of Metals, Symbol of Unchallenged Victory, you are not long for this world.

My tounge is forked, what do you expect?

And my argument still stands, you still earn more gems than Ctis per turn.

Like Soyweiser said, I cancelled the NAP, not the other way around. And I do think it was the right decision.

Gangking C'tis while they are fighting Abysia was of course an option but it would have left me vulnerable against Lanka and Atlantis. Also, Lanka was leading in gem income and most likely had (has) much more blood than I, so even with turtling they would have gained decisive advantage - considering Lanka's national abilities and the fact that Soy obviously knows how to play them.

So I attacked Lanka. I announced my plans to Atlantis as well. I won't pretend I wasn't pleased to hear they would join me. I think that Lanka's defence against the both of us has proven my estimate of their power so far.

But now the problem is that if we let C'tis accumulate gems with AN, they will gain too much eventually. And province count aside, it has been a somewhat stalemate on Abysia-C'tis border lately. On the other hand I fear how strong Lanka will get in the meantime.

Most likely I will accept peace with Lanka and go after C'tis. What will Atlantis think?

Well, due to the war with Mictlan my blood economy (the raiding also did not help) is not as strong as it should be. (Constantly summoning new troops isn't cheap you know). And Mictlan did a good job in the beginning of the war. I think he could have even won if he relied less on slaves and more on jags.

But you know this. As you basically have all of the blood SC's. :D. And a lot of ritual of the five gates demons.

And C'tis, as we have never met an Cithean before we know nothing of your tounges, also, we apes tend to keep those stuff inside the species boundaries. We do have access to a nice magical ritual that helps with that by the way. But we just do not use it. Cross breeding... blergh.

I doubt Atlantis will be happy if you accept nief. But in time they will learn that they where just to late with getting out of the waters. Stay in your evolutionary niche fishies.

Dear my friends and foes!
Abysia is so far really trying to get rid of the forces of C'tis and is soooooo strong SC's and i think we are on a good way with our plans. To bad you did not stay in your Castle my Hinnom friend, is was just about to move further on into C'tis lands with my army after crushing C'tis army at your Capital. But a nice and clever move though ... i would have done the same i think.

About the dispelling and invasion of C'tis ... every help is welcome and will be accepted, same as it was when Abysia attacked Fomoria or Yomi.

About the S mage ... level 6 is not that high i soppose, think you can deliver more than me. Just tell me where to send gems and how much you need for the dispelling. Please send me PM not ingame.
