I do not know about that but just found out about Ser Barristan Selmy, and I am furious beyond belief!

Don't worry Reverend Fondler, I'm sure everything will be fine! Besides, even if you go to jail whats the worst that could happen? You may just be a simple 'Mr. Fondler' now but I'm sure everything will work out.

BTDubs, Uther Pendragon clocking back in under a different name. I'm rusty, been away for over two years. Anyone got any comments on the game dynamic changing? lol

Everyone is still in protection

lawls ^^^
It's ok, doesnt happen in the books

I removed my kingdom from Mantrax cause people do not talk, we did not have fun there, so we moved to Nirvana, cause people here were much nicer and it was more entertaining for us. And then we went quiet, for no reason, don't know whats up with going silent, its better to talk, apologies for not giving any statements from our kingdom.

Indeed we are farming like whores, we haven't done anything all era, except Dark Spawn that yells at me for saying we did not fight, he apparently killed 1500 Ponies or some crap xD So yeah, we are 99% farming our asses off like bosses ^^

We are shamelessly building up and not worrying about soldiers at all, just started training slightly now cause that guy Dark Tidal keeps sending Ponies at us, so now we have to actually do something and make a sort of contribution to the wars :P

So yeah... good luck all, and let us farm here in peace!

Good luck everyone this era! :)

Sure is hot in this world or is it just me? All of the sudden hundreds of thousands of my peoples just melt from the heat :(

Coming to join the fun soon :-) Collective and Maleficent have been farming way too long this era, we really need to do some fighting :-)

I need to join couple other kingdoms just to see how other kingdoms do things, the amount of planning and coordination we are doing is probably not even needed. We are taking forever to move offensively cause we need to have everything in full control over the map, and thats why it takes forever for us to make any kind of decisions, everything needs to be double checked. I would like to join some other kingdom just to get another perspective, to see if other kingdoms do what we are doing... But its fun, to make sure all parts of the map are well controlled, or at least it seems they are, we shall see how it goes.

My Mongol riders are on the way :)

just ask one of the experienced vets to join for the era, and have a look over things.

Alrisaia, look again. It's 68 billion not 68 million :D

Von proving his worth once again :-) has us running around trying to find weak spots :-)

I don't know why dwarfs are not more popular in VU, they are overall best race to play. Very easy to learn, and even if you are semi active like I am, if your kingdom allows you to do some building up, every player will come up with a massive army, in quite a nice period of time. You might say every race can do that, but I feel dwarves can do it faster, building inside the mountain they have lower building cost and they can go crazy with building quickly. Its very easy to come up with even 3 cities of 90k, you do not really need to invest in farms or lumbers, you can just buy it from market, you only need it basically for sciences and later on you just build a small farm city and you are fine.

When it comes to sciences, its pretty straight forward, you go right away with mining sciences, and your income is extreme even from beginning of the era. The guide says that military price is decent, so that is what you should do next. Its easy and good for new players to know right away that is the way to go, and nothing else should be attempted. So they know they are on the good way. After those two sciences you can do some farming or medicine depending what you need.

On my first era I was assigned to defend a blocker, and as a newbie on my first era I trained a 500k Axemen and 300k Runemasters and was the only horde in my kingdom. Just pointining it out, its quite easy to achieve, if you are set up on a blocker duty and you are not forced to go into large battles right away. People should play dwarves more, they are awesome!

:thumbs up:

That might be true, but I mentioned if your kingdom helps you in the beginning, to fight of the orc, you will be fine. I am well aware that with army of the dead spell they have the upper hand, but the difference is, if dwarf has to fight orc at oop, that will most likely end up in death. But on the other hand, if dwarf has a little bit of time to build up, and then comes up with a Axemen army, I am not allowed to say my income now but it is much higher than all the orcs and elves (few halfers in Mal and human Binh might have similar incomes now on Nirvana) and if dwarf manages to fight them at this stage of the game, they will die. Of course if they set up their aotd spells than I would be in trouble obviously, but thats why our kingdom went aotd crazy this era and we do not have not even one halfer.

Is there ever a time in the era when you would prefer having a dwarf player in your kindom, rather than some other race? You sound as dwarves should never be played.

If you look at all that from a simple point of view to just how active the player is;
If you play Dwarf, there is not much skill needed, just make sure mining is up, get military up, and build 3-4 cities into mountain that will lower building cost, that is simple and easy to do.
If you play Human, like you mentioned, to perform best, you need high activity to be able to manipulate the market. Again you need to get your 200k city up, and you do not get building cost reduction, takes much more time and gold to build the city. Once you do it thought, you get extreme income. Knights are very expensive even comparing to Axemen, and Catapults are not that good cause if you get hit you are in trouble, again meaning you need to be active. Axemen also need to be sure not to get hit, but its much less than 40-20 that Catas have.
If you play Halfers, again you need high activity if you plan to get experience finds, you need to be the only person doing it, or the one lucky enough to have a large Advents army with experience, and hope that nobody else has it. Your game play must be going to enemy and hoping to get hit, and if you are inactive there is a good chance you will get hit and then slaughtered while you are not there.

Playing Dwarf allows you slightly lower activity, and in my opinion is better for little bit less active people. But its the small things that sometimes make the difference, like in previous eras we had examples. We were told always keep BTs from beginning of the era, you will need it later. So once we were up against Mal on Nirvana back on our first era, Force used 3 BTs to hit another 500k Dwarf army, and that was crucial, if he got hit that would cause a lot of trouble. Or last era on Mantrax when a veteran player dropped a 1 building city to aotd hit me, I used 3 BTs to get full prep on that city and slaughtered the army, even thought he might be stronger with aotd hits. Those aotd races do have a good tactic, doing the attack multiple times and getting the dead back is great, but they also risk a lot, and they can get killed while they are in the process of getting the dead back.

or if you can be a dragon, then ignore alisha and be that

alisha is welcome to a firm grip on my balls anytime.. i like it rough

i'll call you anything you want me to darling <3
