@Seer, yeah, we still play this one out, somehow  

well, you're free to host, though I'm having a masochistic tendencies, so I'd prefer super-mega-ultra-strong defenders (like now). It kinda makes you consider every battle and the consequences. On a side note - I've noticed that the Arsenal mod doesn't work with empire building mod properly (e.g. there are no units appearing after you incorporate in city domain some structures that should otherwise open path to new unit)

Yeah, Lobo, that indeed seems to be the case. 

Well, glad you guys are getting back on track - at least, there's still a chance of big layer vs layer fights

Hey guys,

has anyone noticed some bugs? I think there are some. Nearly 50% of the sites on the water are undefended. I don't know if the defenders were missing from the beginning or if they disappeard somehow through mod updates. I remember this issue when the beta branch was updated some month ago.

2nd one is that my leader didn't get an upgrade which was offered through another ability. I don't know if his level is too low and I get the upgrade later or if it's abug.

Anyways, my game starts rolling now. May a litttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttle bit too late but better late than never...

Yes, I did reach race tier 3, but I'm actually against the beacon victory  

again this is up to you if you wish to continue with current setup, or we can do a remake

Lost my leader last turn:-(

Hey guys!

How is it going? AIX, I think it was you reaching dwarv champion RG? Does it make sense to continue if you are that far ahead? I can only speak for me but I never really recovered from the turn where I lost 80% of my starting army. I can produce t3 units since 3 turns but I have no gold to build them...

@Moridin, Personian,what say you? we're missing your voice here. 

Also, from what I understand Badger is the Nemesis_Zero?

Well, the mods were tested by me in the solo game (and I reached quite some turns there.)

The settings may look draconian, but this is to prevent players from farming early on and then steamrolling others with the doom-stacks. 

The name "Global Strategy" implies you have to think strategically, which includes the situation your troops will be after battle (if your unit survived the battle with very little hp, most likely you won't see him next turn), planning for the indie spawns, etc. One more effect which I tried to achieve - is to force you guys use more than a single stack to clear sites. Every cleared mine should feel like a Mythical site cleared, so that small boost of +10 gold would actually mean something. 

That said even if I remake this game, settings won't change (unless I think of the better "tough" mod )

I'm not against alliances, however when the indies spawn - they'll do so in multiple locations, so helping the teammate may not be in your best interests

So vote until now:

So the current vote look like this:

Tentative:

Markymark

Up for restart:

Longinus

$eer

Fine with playing the current round:

AlX (surprise-surprise 

I would be in for a restart ,  but you would need to post all the settings here so we know what we are getting into , unlike the first go.

Would also suggest toning down your abuse of the extended settings mod , and i really don't know that this forge and attrition mod is a good thing along with all the others and difficult game settings ,   perhaps it should be tested out first on more normal settings before you toss it into the mix with all the others , like a molotov cocktail ingredient.

The concept for this game is a good one ,  but i also feel then when players are on a team they take more interest , and enjoy the teamwork aspect of AoW3   ,  its good fun to help and support your teammates , and with this difficulty level ,  perhaps a 4v4 or 3v3 would work better , that way when the boneyard spawns on turn 30 , players will not get wiped out by it perhaps if they have some ally supporting their city defense.

just some thoughts , but by all means continue this as it is ,  what turn did you guys reach anyways ?

Personally, I' d prefer playing without a teammate in this sort of setup. As in case I'd mess up - my teammate would have to bear the weight of my mistakes, or vice-versa.

So the current vote look like this:

Tentative:

Markymark

Up for restart:

Longinus

Fine with playing the current round:

AlX (surprise-surprise 

am I the only one then who is actually fairing more/less ok?

I need you guys (those that are still willing to play such game) to vote. So far I heard 2 persons saying they'd want restart now. So:

Up for restart:

Markymark

Longinus

Fine with playing the current round:

AlX (surprise-surprise )

I think those that have been eliminated should vote as well (if they are still interested in continuing the game, that is).

P.s. Nemesis_zero was included in my personal blacklist due to skipping turns without any notification whatsoever. :/
