ok, wtf, i crashed last night before i could take my turn, and it autohosted after only 12h? Ugg. Will probably need to rollback again, but i am well and truly confused.

Ok, I am terribly sorry about all the confusion and the delay. As may be apparent, these turns can take several hours, and it only takes a little bit of complication to make that a problem. Fortunately, I can now handle extension requests.

Please delete all .2h files now and use only the new one when it arrives.

As long as I'm talking about admin-related stuff, would there be any support to increasing the hosting interval slightly? I believe its on a 36h timer - would anyone mind ~50h so there's 2 whole days between turns?

I don't need the 50 hours, obviously :P but I'm ok with your request.

Terribly sorry, but i'm going to need some extra time this turn.

Edit: I swear that's the last time i'm adding...

I might note, while we've had an extra day and a half for me (working on it, i swear), TC is also still missing. TC? You plan on playing this turn?

Edit: And my monster of a turn is done and in. Mmmm... 35 slave communion, on land, despite Sea of Ice. That's more than a little excessive...

I hope TC has not dropped out. I have magnificent plans in the making.

I just got home from work. Plenty of time, though I am concerned about everyone else.

Expecting this turn will make me or break me. Scripting is almost (but not quite) a chore.

I figured some of you were planning on getting it done in the last few hours, but I wasn't going to be up much longer to check =P

And yes, scripting can take awhile.

TC is apparently still MIA. Do we want to try to find a sub? Or just let them stale until the current player decides to play or the game ends?

FWIW, I predict I will control the required 5 capitals in ~3-4 turns, and win 3 turns thereafter.

I will of course accept concessions before then. =)

And if my intended 3 targets prove to be too hard to crack, well, an entire legion of my best troops is headed to ermor. Make that several dozen legions.

So, um, yeah - bringing down Sea of Ice? Wow that made my logistics a lot easier. I'm not bottlenecked on items (including to a large extent one artifact in particular) to move my forces onto land.

Other random prediction: If players can somehow stimy me from taking 5 capitals, I will eventually kill you all via domkill. I mean, its going to take awhile, i can't blood sac, but i can build 2 juggernauts per turn indefinitely. I've been pursuing that on the side as a novelty strategy =)

Once the game does end, or once the end is all but assured, I'd appreciate it if everyone could post a write-up of their strategies, observations and any thoughts they have on what went well/wrong for them; a sort of game post-mortem. Your contribution doesn't have to be long, but you don't have to keep it short either. I'll be sure to give mine once the time comes.
