Dear friends,
I am Sir Atki Wiglegs, and this is an announcement that I am now accepting PMs from all eligible suitors who wish to begin the courting process.
As well, I wish to communicate that this talk of map selection is most likely simple posturing for advantage. If I were to tell you I would like to play on the island map, one could easily infer that I had the plan of choosing a sea-faring civilization. The same applies to other maps that favour certain civilizations. EchelonTee's last post is simply an example of this. Look at how he makes arguments for why the Mediterranean map would be best for everyone. Then look at his choice of civilization, Saracen.
Saracens
The Saracens are renowned for their traders and diplomacy. Strengths: camels (cavalry strong against other cavalry), arid and mediterranean maps, trade and diplomacy Unique Unit: Mameluke, a mounted camel that can attack from range (with melee attack) Quite untrustworthy if you ask me.
Hugs and Kisses,
~Atki Wiglegs

I'll show you trustworthy. I want Black Forrest and I will chose Vikings, no advantage there except Vikings in general is OP. But since I am the only Viking in game I reserve the right to play Vikings.

Why infer and speculate when you can read my post to clearly see my intentions?
Therefore, I will be voting for mediterranean. Am I trying to sway votes to a map choice that I would prefer? Of course, I do enjoy winning. But unless you can get a band of people you can trust to form some a wombo combo strat (all seafaring nations in an alliance), it's best for all of us to pick one of the more stable map choices. You make it seem like I am trying to pull a fast one, when I clearly say in my post why I consider a land/sea map beneficial both to the general public, and to myself. I am not "most likely" posturing for an advantage, I am posturing for an advantage, but hope that others can see how it would benefit them as well.
I feel like this game will play out like "Phantom" in SC2. One random dude will remain hidden for a while and then BOOM, we all dead.

Or, one dude will openly push his objectives in the thread and try to spin it so it looks like it's good for every player. Well, not every player is playing Saracens. I don't think you were being deceptive, but I see no reason to vote for a map that favors any nation but my own and that of my allies. This much seems clear to me.

The interesting thing though, unless I'm mistaken, is that map choice will be decided before civilizations are revealed, and before alliances are made. Even if you wanted to choose a map that would most benefit both your allies and you, you have no idea how your allies will turn out.
I guess at the end of the day, Tunkeg has the right approach.

Y u so crafty ET?
I plan to give this game my all. The game mechanics are right up my alley, and I'm excited to see how this plays out.
I am a good choice for pm buddy, so don't be shy!

If multiple allied civs attack someone at night, will it be a simultaneous 3v1 battle that is played out, or 3 1v1s?
If a civ attacks another civ and wipes out that civs army, that means if someone else also attacks the same night, that civ is toast?

Lonely Viking seeks PM buddy for scheming and plotting.
I am big manly Viking in need of a companion for late night talks. I am very cuddly and lovable, but for the right one I am willing to pillage and conquer.
You love to be told what to do, are loyal and would never ever consider putting a dagger in my back.
If you are all this we are a match made in heaven. Send me a PM, no need for any photos.
Love Tunkeg
PS: I might go berserk when on the Shrooms.

Also you have to wine and dine me. I want to be picked up, not pick up. So you send the PM, not me!

Tunkeg, you can PM me if you like. I used my request already.

Oh well, nvm then

What would be a plan though is if your PM buddy, PM'ed me. In that case no one would even no we were linked...

If the attacks are sent individually then it's 3 1v1s, if the attacks are coordinated (by the allies telling me that they want the attack to be coordinated) then it'll be a single unified attack.
Yes to the second question. The player is almost guaranteed to be dead.

Guys if you request a PM buddy and I confirm it with you, there's no taking it back.
Sorry.

OK guys here's the deal. I want a strong alliance, with no traitors. No one have PM'ed me yet, and some of the players who have made their prescence in thread known have allready confirmed that they are in PM land. So for those of you who have written in thread since the game started don't bother chosing me for PM partner as I won't speak to you (as I fear you hare plotting with someone else). This means the only PM's I will respond to is:
2 rastaban
4 Bill Murray
6 ItsMarvelBabyyy
8 MrZentor 9 Fulblade 10 Tunkeg 11 [UoN]Sentinel 12 Sinensis
|
Also I have a way of checking whether or not you are trying to play me from the get go. So if you are again don't bother PM'ing me...
