Tigran Warlord didn't win this time, what happend to the Manticore Riders DreadReapr?
792 | Age of Wonders 3
A long story short:
We decided for 3 classes which can boost each other (the benefit of PBEM++ team games), I picked rogue for Iron Grip, and additionally picked pure good alignment to be able to cast spiritual freedom on cities.
Jean picked Dreadnought to help us boost production, and in the end I had 3 cities with 120+ production to rush SS in 1 turn for an additional 50g only.
Lastly Hellbrick picked WL to help increase domain radius and also picked a pure evil alignment to be able to create some nasty Goblins as well as Greater Life Stealing Feathered Serpents.
Hellbrick was pretty much left alone in the UG and created an impressive empire, ranging from north west to south east corner of the map, and one of his cities produced those crazy Feathered Serpents! He also cleared some mythical sites and received True Resurrect which resulted in this scary army:
Jean acted as the "Guardian of the Center" and controlled the central Giant Dwelling as well as a city he took from Lightform after an early scrap.
Dreadreapr was as always impressive in his empire building, and Lightform did his best to quickly raise an undead force, but 2vs3 for the majority of the game was too much in the end.Â
Some screenshots of the scores for those interested:
2 day timer added.
The turn changed to Hellbrick now, so I can wait a few days until I kick him if he make a miraculous return.
Looks like I really had a sort of virus because it completely ruined the whole internet connection and caused abruptions and shut downs.Â
I'm apologizing for the IM note, my pc crashed during one of my infinitive attempts to send the turn these days.
And sorry for having you wait the turn.

HI!
And it happens with all other turns in my games.
Is it just my pc which went mad or you, guys, have the same problem?...
If you are getting swamped and know you wont be able to make your turn, you can simply drop a message on steam or here in the game blog and we increase/remove the timer.
Â
   In any case, the skipping has not been intentional, and I apologize for making you guys wait. If you want to kick me, do what you have to do, I won't hold it against you.
If Dread/Lightform prefer, I can kick Justaking and set an AI to play his turns.
"currently having problems with starting my game in steam though. havent been able to launch it for the past two days. same problem i was having awhile ago with the game never launching after clicking the play button."
Not sure where this problem is coming from and how to resolve it.
I know that sometimes steam have troubles to sync the files and it results in a message if you want to play in offline mode, but that usually only happen when I try to start the game directly from sleep/power off.
Maybe try restart your computer and try again?
It might be better for the other team if JustaKing is kicked and you get an AI Emperor to play for you.
I dont want to kick JustKing, but if he dont tell us why he miss turns and delaying the game, its also better for you.
If you have any troubles making your turn, please let me/us know in the game blog and I will help or ask others for advice to help you out.
@Lightform, you have less than 22h left before the timer expire. I cant promise to turn it off if you have difficulties to make your turn after the update of the mod, but i will do my best.
I will remove the timer for today, as it's not fair to your team to keep missing turns.
But please let us know when you are not available and able to make your turns.Â
What is the problem? 3 days should be enough to make a turn and if you can't manage you should inform us here, in this topic. Since you both are silent I have a feeling you don't want to play this game any longer.Â
This is the second attempt to play this 3-3 game (the first one failed due to Darkrider) and I simply won't allow this game to be ruined since my team enjoys it. I'm looking forward to hearing from you and expect you to continue this game and make your turns in time. At least, please, communicate with us here. This game will be finished and reported anyway.
To DreadReapr: I'm sorry for what's happening. Have you tried to contact your teammates or are you all playing without any team cooperation?Â
      Yea, sorry. Got a bit caught up in real life, haha. All caught up now in my games.
This is obviously fine, and I just wanted to type here so that everyone knows why the game stall.
Sadly I launched the game without debug mode, which resulted in an immediate crash during download of the turn, so I had to clear the save and launch in debug mode, hence the restart message.
Ok, we will find out if it works once Lightform joins, it currently looks like this:
All that is left now is to join on the servers, you find the screenshot with password game name etc in the first post.
@Jean also need to confirm his slot (number 5) on the server.
