*whew*
...sitting back and calmly awaiting results, as none of that applies to me...
(that I know of)

Ah, don't you just love overkill?
2) Another front opened in the Olaern War... though perhaps not going the way it was anticipated!
The question being: anticipated by whom? I doubt both sides have the same expectations...

Thank you for the new thread, AllFather. I am excitedly awaiting to read what others will share!

I'm not even going to comment, just in case we have to wait until Sunday.

Turns are in, save for two big things... one of them is mentioned in the main turn summary. Because of its repercussions, the map is temporarily unavailable and will be out Sunday.

I really don't know why I didn't expect that (the cracking, that is), heh.

Well, that it folks. No more turns, just a final goodbye blessing. Has anyone decided what theirs is going to be yet?

I've decided to share the actions and events surrounding my war with Adomorn early in the game; sorry the post ended up so long, but the war did last quite a while. I think I'm going to go into my long running demon problem next, but I'll give it a while so I don't hog the thread, heh.

damn!! the good guys seem to be winning!
so much for Bhakti's theories!!
ah well, on Sunday we'll see the results of the last two elements. My friend and ally Argothoth has promised me a
gift! I think I will see whether he can deliver on Sunday!!

Wonder what this last action that has to be discussed is...

This last action that needs to be discussed apparently does not involve me. But, there are actions in my results that are unresolved. As I plan to return, I am curious if the results of these unresolved actions will become clear in the Third Age...
Oh, and Xar...
While I already expressed it privately, again I wish to say much thanks for a totally awesome Game. Enjoy your trip to Berlin.

I'm curious what cutting off our access in the middle of a war is going to do, heh. I'm guessing we can't call off our armies and give our 'gift'.

My understanding is that all of our DRP is directed towards the "gift." That is all we are able to do this last submission.

Here's what he said again, so we don't have to dig for it. Again.
:EDIT: I included my goodbye anyway.
No, this is how it's going to work. You have one more turn, so you're supposed to send in moves (by this weekend, btw) as if things were normal. I'll process the moves and send you the final results - i.e. the situation at the time the interdict will take place. THEN, you will be able to give this "last gift" (it's not compulsory), which will work as if you were performing a single action using as many DRPs as you want, up to your normal maximum. The action should fall into your sphere of influence - it could be anything from raising a mighty forest to crafting a powerful artifact to drop on Eiran, from granting eternal life to your prophet to filling Eiran with a necromantic field.
I've got mine all worked out, and woe to the enemy that faces it.
All I need now is a name.....
Raev. (pronounced ray-ev)
:EDIT:
On another note, I LOVE badass followers.
The maddened dragonriders meet their doom as they aim towards Sanctuary, and are met single-handedly by Areela; the force of her conviction and her faith is such that a simple word of command from her is enough to stop the riders and their dragons, and though fire wreathes her and the blades and tips of spears seek her flesh, a cocoon of holy power protects her. Her eyes burn with holy fire as she speaks another word of command, raising her hands sharply, and pillars of divine fire erupt from the ground, enveloping the maddened dragonriders and their mounts, who screech in pain as the madness is cleansed from their minds and souls. When the riders fall onto the ground, unconscious, Areela extinguishes the divine fire, and calls for your soldiers to succor the wounded riders; once they recover, it is discovered that Areela's power did indeed cleanse them of madness, and, shamed for their deeds, the dragonriders visit your temple, asking for forgiveness and for penance.

In our 'final gift' can we request the blessing of those other gods whose domains may help? (Will that make a difference?)
