Congrats CBower! You made it to my new nemesis I guess! ;-)
@All have a nice game without the orc. 

No worries, I understand things come up. It looks like you and Olschenstein had a pretty good war going on. He raze your throne and you sent him into the void. You guys passed the draconian place back and forth a few times. I wanted to be in that mix, I even owned that village for a minute. ExNihil took my throne early and I had to fight him off. Almost a shame to get in the middle of your war, just kind of bumbled into it trying to keep advancing my army. On the other side it looks like Ninjew and AIX have been fighting each other. Looks like everyone paired off with someone to fight this game.

Apologies for missing my last turn.  Real life (sick and on the road, ugh).  Nonetheless, I tried to play my turn to move it along since I've been eliminated.  It got in a strange "Independents moving" mode.  Odd.  So, I just left the game.  Hopefully, it is moving along now.

GG all.  The orc and I killed each other, but it was fun.

sorry, guys. missed my turn. apologizes! reallife issues. back now.
thanx!

AlXStormrage :"Guys, I am gonna be away untill Sunday, can we extend timer so that I won't miss my turn? "

is fine with me, thanks for informing us. 

I think quitting in general is a problem for PBEM. I think because it's a long format with only 10 slots. Most 6 player games seem to get down to 3-4 committed players rather quickly. I have just kinda come to accept that as the nature of this format.

With a 1 day timer people are bound to miss turns. It's just going to happen. I missed one too, was kind of pissed at myself for it, but what are you going to do. As for the ABED game, the game is not ruined. I am in it, ABED is in it, plenty of good game left.  I understand your point, quitting does take from the game, and I think everyone will agree with that, but quitting one game does make the person a "quitter". A "quitter" to me is someone who constantly quits the minute things don't go well. From my experience that does not seem to be ExNihil.

Look, you are talking about two different games here and for some reason are using the gameblog for what should be a steam chat. You ask why people missed turns, RL issues. You say I am a quitter for surrendering in a different game, well, my answer to you, in short is... and read between the lines. I have already provided an explanation in the game blog there and coordinated that with the game host before hand (you are welcome to ask him.) For the simple reason that I was not enjoying playing that game and found it to be a waste of my time... yes. well, like I find interacting with you, increasingly. 

okay, "had a bad location"= family issue. sorry for being a dick.

? Don't be a dick, sometimes there are RL circumstances that prevent people from playing computer games, when you have a family you might understand this. Be that as it may, I didn't quit this game, which is still running, and I played my last turn (missed one or two due to said circumstances).

Surrendering is not quitting, it is surrendering.

@ExNihil: Hey man, what´s up? In "Abednego PBEM" you quitted because you "had a bad location". This game as the hoster you also don´t play. sorry, but you seem to be a quitter! 
@Ninjew: what´s up man? you also missed your turn! 

Guys please play the game!

No problem, this shit happens

i had to repeat my turn because my pc lost power during gameplay. had no intention to cheat or so. don´t kill me! pleeeze! 

Ok, thanks a bunch and apologizes for the mix up! We got Ninjew replacing Crowmaster, which is sure to upgrade this game anyhow . So we are finally launched. GL HF!

I replaced Crowmaster by Ninjew and changed the name of the game, as ExNihil asked by MP. Actually it was Markymark who launched the game here.

And I think you have the options to make this modifications yourself ExNihil, as creator of the game.
You can click on "Click for game details" to edit the name. And you've got lists on the name of each player, where you can replace them.
Check for next time.

Whoops, forgot to join last night.  Joined now.

Gilafron, Crowmaster, we are waiting for you guys. If you don't show up soon I assume you don't want to play in this match and we'll find other players.

As for order: As far as i understand Gilafron is in the U.S while we are in Europe, so he should appear in the end, become of time differences. 

okay make sense when the creator is on pos 1.

Have changed order (use only the pos number for a new order).

The time zone are taken into account to display the playtime. So what you read in the column "Playtime" is the playtime expressed in your time zone. And the turn order is computed taking into account both time zone and playtime. But yes, you have to be first as you're host.

EDIT: you messed things up I think: the correct turn order should be:
ExNihil
Gilafron
Olchenstein
Cbower
Crowmaster
AIX

update problem solved.

Can't use the game order as mentioned above since I am the host, and must go first lol . Also we are on different continents, so Gilafron's 8am is actually a very different time zone from your 9am. 

I already gave you the password, but here we go again: Severus

Game name is The Battlefield FFA #2/6

@ExNihil "big time difference"? You mean my possible playtime? Can I change it global? Can´t find the place to change. It should be 10 to 21.
I´m using steam.

Written on 2015-09-16 14:49:54

Ok, I changed the game to 6 players since 8 is a bit too much and to medium map since large is a bit too large as well. Also change heroes to 5. 

Question - are you all steam users? If any of you is a GoG user I will use version 1.602, if not we will go with a beta version and I prefer 1.609 so someone can pick the new and upgraded Orcs which are pretty cool. Please start using the message system here and not private messages. Once we are all set I will make the game with a p/w and publish it here.  

@Olchenschtein I see you are at Germany, same as myself, but for some reason you appear to be at a very big time difference from the rest of us, why is that?

Nice. That makes sense. I had wondered why his cities were independent for so long. If you had caught me with numbers, that would have swung it probably. I was risking everything to slow you down and pull you back. I think you probably had better overall units. Outside of the units I ended it with I had a few beserkers and monster hunters, but nothing scary. Those stacks at the end were basically my entire offense. My leader stack was strong but numbers but I don't think it could handle 2 or 3 to 1. I was counting entirely on death march and scouting to get in and out. You did a better job managing the cities, especially from what I gather looking at the scoreboard at the end. I still need work to figure out these larger FFA, I was fortunate in many things in this game. It seems like there is potential for these games to have a late game shift, where things become more about empire management then who has the biggest ugliest army.

Nice Game! With the best End for CBower again. Well described. Thanks for that.

Written on 2015-12-13 23:11:10

My most stupid mistake was in not accounting for the Death Marsch (or so it seemed ), since I had seen your stack coming towards fey, so I supposed that'd be your speed if you rush me. However you managed to outmanuver me, and the river didn't help to engage you straight away  who knows how it'd turn up if I'd caught you then  and I think I rushed declaring wars on everybody, when trying to get evil allignment 

Anyways, nice game

P.S. I was actually toying with Ninjew - threw UP on 2 of his cities and then destroyed his main forces, but it was more advantageous for me to keep his cities under the spells. Ye, I'm all evil and stuff

    This was a great game. I moved south originally to take on Gilfran, even took a draconian village of his. BUt while I moved south ExNihil came straight at with his full force. He took my throne. I ran home pretty sure my game was over. Meanwhile Gilfran was unable to advance on me, since olschenstein declared war on him. They were neighbors down in the south. Positions worked out that everyone more or less got a sparing partner. I got ExNihil, Olschenstein vs Gilfran, NINJEW vs AISStormage. ExNihil had the advantage on me as I did not scout well and he took me by surprise. my cities had no roads between them and plenty of wetlands which slowed me down at start. However the terrain benefited me when ExNihil. He was too slow to move to my other cities. When he finally went to take them, ExNihil falter in his movements. I was able to ambush him and pick him apart stack by stack. I sent him to the void with that decisive victory and the next turn he surrendered. 

Meanwhile Gilfran and olschenstein engaged in a bitter war. The draconian village I took got retaken by Gilfran, then lost to olschenstein, then retaken by olschenstein. I kept watch on them, at some point olschenstein took Gilfran throne and was able to raze it, but it looks as if it cost olschenstein his entire leader stack as I saw him go into the void. While they were fighting I gobbled up ExNihil fallen empire. That is where you can see my score jump.  After consolidated that I started exploring further with my leader stack and my secondary stack lead by a Necro healer. Which became important as I lucked into a bone dragon spell as a reward.

It was at this point that I ran into AIX. I am not quite sure what happened between him and NINJEW, but it looked like AIW got the better of it. He had expanded all over the opposite side of the map. My main stack moved against AIX, took a dwelling a lucking into surprising a quality clearing stack. My leader stack found his homelands, I was able to raze his throne and another city, but AIX had pulled back his troops and my leader stack was quality, but it was hopelessly outnumbered. I needed to bring in the necro stack.

As I moved the necro stack I wandered right into the middle of the Gilfran/olschenstein war. After I took a city the indies claimed from olschenstein, Gilfran took it from me. But my Necro and Bone dragons were close by. The Bone dragons took out Gilfran, with no throne his game was over. From there I barreled down on olschenstein, I took his throne, he tried to escape but indies caught him in the open. Somewhere in there NINJEW took an AIX city and then AIX caught him and ended him.

Finally I was able to link my main armies together and approach AIX homelands. We had two big 3v3 fights. One with me attacking a city, and one defending it Having high tiered units with more medals helped keep my losses small. After the big swing in units AIX surrendered.

Looking at the score is interesting, because I trailed for most of the game. I am not a good expander. AIX was clearly superior in that regard as can be shown by the scored. In the end I was just able to assemble a bigger uglier army to invade with.
