Any advice would be most welcome here.

an AN P3 wizard can allow a group to move 6 plains squares using speed (718). this would cover 18 squares in 3 turns that should be enough to get you to any region. If you have a p5 you could cover 7 squares a turn. Combine all your brigades into one group and then split them into other groups once you arrive.

The water route would take you about the same amount of time since you can not use the 726 order to cross the water you must stop at this side of the portal then 726 across the next turn.

1. You get a political bonus
2. You get a bonus fighting in the forest
3. Movement rate is higher than me
4. You have no natural enemy right now and have not for many turns and from the get go he was getting the crapped kicked out of him so he probably never raised his influence.
5. You have your own region. Where the 2 people your fighting are in split regions.

I will remember your name, soon as a game starts up and your in it (not anonymous) and I have a slot open. I will be there just to piss with you.

Wait...you're actually pissed at me? When you're the one who attacked me and refused to even discuss the possibility of maintaining peace between us? And you're going to carry a vendetta beyond game 173?

Not cool. Seriously not cool.

No what makes me mad. There is a difference between beating someone into submission and trying to take every pop center and asset from someone.

I respect not backing out of an agreement.

I honestly do not understand what it is you think I have done wrong. If you have a specific example of something unsportsmanlike, please share it - I am more than willing to submit to the judgment of our community.

This is a war game, and if you initiate an attack on someone, get beaten back, and don't ever try to sue for peace, I think you'll find that most people will come after you until you're no longer a threat.

With that said, ESPECIALLY if you're new, I think you'll find that you can often sue for peace, and as long as you agree to lay off of the other guy, you can usually lick your wounds and recover.

(Of course, as a theoretical matter, if you do that and then go after the original guy AGAIN, I have a feeling you will not receive any mercy.)

By the way, I think people should expect to see lots of EL podium finishes as we move forward. I think it's now the best Kingdom in the game.

A lot of bad blood this game. It will be interesting to read final recaps but the WI tried diplomacy first. This is the only game so far I have played that felt personal. The troll made choices that he might or might not want back, the GI wanted the WI out early. (Who can blame him as a natural enemy). I feel so far the WI has played a really good game but with no delusions about winning it's not over yet but for my part 173 will not carry over to future games we play to win but please don't take it personal unless deserved.

EL sorry for flippen. I admit defeat and just want this game to be over. I'm not even interested in this one. So I almost find it a waste to get turn results because there is nothing good in them and just is going to make the other days sour until the next turn is due...and the cycle goes on

No worries. Of the three games I've completed, I was pretty much in your position by the end of two of them. I get where you're at. I hope you are able to find ways to still have some fun - denying me a win or podium finish ain't a bad goal to have and I think you, GI and WA have plenty of potential to do just that. And I'm looking forward to partnering with each of you in some future game.

I'm just attacking you. Because you were there.

Huh?

When did you decide to leave your region? That's not your playing style.

Have you been seeking advice from more active players?
