Hate it when you wake up expecting a turn and it hasn't run (although it barely ever happens). Thanks UM.

Something to do with his turn 13 transfer troops order missing a value in Column D. The server program relies on the order entry website to trap some errors (like this one) so if the player ignores them and saves the error on the server, it may cause a problem when the turn is run. I usually try to trap these errors anyway in the server program but cannot this time around so instead, I reset turn 13 of this game. Everyone will need to re-do the ready button except for the Ranger who will need to re-do his entire orders for the turn (I deleted the file on the server so it won't cause this problem when the turn runs). Try to be careful when filling out orders on the website. There may be server lag or other issues at the time so recheck your orders and then save a good version on the server before hitting the ready button.
Ok, will redo the turn asap, thanks um for catching this one! Will get it done, but busy right now so will take a couple of hours.

RA started scouting my region intentionally early in the game while I was on my way out of his from a starting PC. RA patrol landed on my capital Turn 4, and he brought his entire army there turn 5- I reciprocated on the same turn. Now I control every PC in Krynn save 1, have killed his King, his Regent, his Baron and have 1RD over 100K in value while he has a few villages and the city in Triumvia which he loses this turn. So, unless he has a secret army group he's waiting to spring on me at the last minute - OR he's plotting with the Elf via email which I suppose is allowed since the Elf is new not much else can be happening. His capital falls for a 3rd time this turn so between that and his Count running things now (and may get captured this turn) his influence is below 10.
So the RA wants me to give him back 8 pc's in Krynn that have me at tight control while he'll return 2 villages in Triumvia that he'll lose next turn. Because "I can't see the big picture". Clearly I don't know how to play the game.
RA - All
Sure, the story above is about accurate otherwise, but seems the RD "forgot" to tell everyone some small details, or "the fine print" if you will.
T1 I stumbled on his town in Krynn, which was to be expected of course and as such no surprise. But then on T2 I noticed another RD village in Krynn, aaand (drumroll) T3 even a third RD village in Krynn. So "was on my way out of his starting region" is of course probably right to the letter, but the rest of you can probably figure out the whole story  And so the concept of "mutual war" can obviously also be questioned :rolleyes
And to the RD: Good that you are finally starting working on different scenarios for the future, could be useful for you future plans  As said - good luck with your chosen path!
(Btw- No hard feelings whatever happens, I’m in character on forum and direct and forceful but just having fun, thanks Dwellomir)
OOC: Acererak, saw this update in your post only now, but exactly my thoughts as well, absolutely no hard feelings IRL! I’m only smack talking and trying to influence the meta game - with fairly bad results as it seems
So absolutely nothing personal, reading through my previous posts I realize it might not be so clear and might be interpreted as as personal/angry, but this is absolutely not the case! My style is also more role playing and I always try to be in character while in game, but I have the utmost respect for you and the rest of the players here (but not your kingdoms and in game regents though necessarily...). So hope we all have fun and all the best to you - but the RDs will still suffer in this game I might add...
/D
Sigh. Will this turn ever run?

Yah sorry about that guys, I didn't realize I hadn't hit the ready button.
RD-EL: Trade agents this turn? I'd like to get my 8 back and I can give you your 4 back.

OK ladies and gentlemen, our astute accountants at Hobbit (inc) have determined that many of you are wasting precious resources selling food on the open market. You could, instead, be making yourselves (but more importantly, us) rich!
We here in the shire pay 50% more for your food than random people on the open market, and who knows who is getting your cheap food!? It could be that bully dragon Smaug who is getting it. Shame on him. Rest assured food purchased by the gentle, loving and peaceful halflings goes to a good cause!
Buying at least 50,000 food for 25,000 gold, up to 100,000 food for 50,000 gold, multiple turn deals available! Deals with multiple players available!
We also have food for sale!! We give you the SAME DEAL we get at Hobbit (inc).
Selling at least 30,000 food for 20,000 gold up to 90,000 food for 60,000 gold!
To our fellow kingdoms with extra food, we encourage you to sell to us despite the possibility of deals which may seem better than ours. You must remember where your food is going!! Is it going to build massive oppressive armies that pillage and destroy?? Or is your food helping to improve the aesthetic aspects of a kind and gentle kingdom?
Consider wisely!! The Vikings or Dragons or Lizards you feed today may come and eat you tomorrow!

By the way, new players, whoever you might be, YOU may contact our humble, peaceful shire at ANY time, while we are restricted to initiating contact to the "late" seasons.

HA: I should really take you up on this, as food and gold have been quite valuable and in short supply... What do you propose? I do have quite a bit of food - I found this magical plow.... but I'm not entirely sure how to best use it. Perhaps that could be leveraged to mutual advantage - have you any tips about how to maximize the returns on such a relic?
RA: It pained me to attack those known to share our values, but your assault on our village could not be left unanswered!
RD: It seems some of your agents laired near our recent bloodbath with the RA. They were captured as our armies swept the area and told our Captains that their presence in The Crown Islands was entirely due to the RA fleeing there.
I believe them.
Shall we work out an exchange so that I might see them returned safely?
OOC: I've been a bit mum on the forums, as I saw some notes earlier that suggested we should not discuss deals until a later stage in the game. When might that begin?
OOC2: Happy New Year all!
