Pantheon: The Third Age - Rules and Comments Thread

[I'm Murrin]

So how far along are you, Xar?

[Xar]

A bit less than halfway... I only started after Telmag announced his going on hold.

[Menolly]

Will the game stats reflect Telmag's status?
And how will that affect Court standings, should he still be on hold at Turn 8?

Telmag will be kept on hold, but all his cities will become unaligned, and he will not contribute to the Court's Divine Right.

[Menolly]

Thank you AllFather.

By unaligned, does that mean his cities are available to be converted? I thought by going on hold your cities became sacrosant until your return?

[Xar]

Thank you AllFather.

No, given that he doesn't know when and if he'll be back, and that the Shattered Lands are a contested territory, his cities will be available to be converted. He'll simply not lose followers, Contentment or Treasury (though he'll lose Wealth).

Again, my thanks.

[Zephyr]

Wow. That is quite an interesting thing...

[Madadeva]

Telmag suggested his cities become unaligned. He did not think it fair to keep them locked up given his status.

[I'm Murrin]

Sharp contrast to how it was treated in P2, though.

[Menolly]

Aye, which prompted my question.

[Xar]

Sharp contrast to how it was treated in P2, though.

It is, but now there are many more players, and especially in these last few turns hostilities have broken over continents and parcels of land, so it would be unfair for certain cities to become "invulnerable" for an unknown period of time - which could end up being days as easily as months.

[Damelon]

All these questions are delaying Xar from processing the turn.

[Keev Furaha]

Yeah, stop pestering my All Daddy.

[Madadeva]

Yeah, stop pestering my All Daddy.

Your WHAT "daddy"?!!

[Menolly]

Ah Deva, you're behind the times. Keev has called the AllFather that before.

[Keev Furaha]

Perhaps Deva would prefer that I call him Mi Papi Grande or Der Vader Alles?

[balon!]

Is he going to force choke us?

[Keev Furaha]

Vader is father in German. But that's not saying Xar won't force choke one of us. He is the all powerful all knowing master of pantheon....

[Cameraman Jenn]

Apparently Keev can't spell in German. In German it's Vater, the Dutch spell it Vader.
