What are the asterisks? (Edit: this was covered in the updated game rules)

and why the dude walking on water in the middle? Someone already has the water walking buff, that might not be a good sign!

Can I create a city near/on the bridge between the 2 continent. And ask a tax to everyone who want to cross the channel?

"I have not yet begun to fight!" No, seriously. I haven't yet.

But people should see that Brad updated his original post.

For centuries the mists of Anthys have harbored the spirit of the malevolent entity known to the darkness as Raven Xavier. Now, after building his power and draining essence from the lands, the Dark Lord is made manifest...

"I, Raven Xavier, do name this metropolis "Ravenloft". From here my empire shall grow and I will sweep the lands clean of all things pure and righteous. Look upon my might and tremble for your doom is upon you."

mwhahaha }:)

Wow, I am glad I am not on the same continent as that guy. :)

Actually a random event will pop up "Pirates" and my guys will own you all. And yes we have armies of Dragons... }:)

:D

Where's the map!?

Reply #11 from Elemental Forums Top

This is where I would drop a horse from 200feet onto the top of porter's head, ending his character's life LOL..

Reply #13 from Elemental Forums Top

no, but one of the participants hasn't taken his turn.

Reply #14 from Elemental Forums Top

I know ;)

Just tried to give a hint that maybe some substitution is in order.

But it might be that the bottleneck is not the player, but the moderator. Maybe Frogboy has other things to do... like making a game... ;)

Porternielsen has made his turn, actually a couple of days ago. It's just not come through yet.

Reply #16 from Elemental Forums Top

Oh man, I should look more carefully. This entire time I thought I was blue. "Why haven't I moved north?" I thought. Turns out I'm red. HA. OK, time to start thinking straight about this game.

You are the blue marker, colors got mixed up. You can look at the rules thead to be sure. Might want to rethink your move with that.

Are you sure? I was the only one who built a town and then moved, so I shouldn't be standing atop of where I am. I looked at the rules thread and I couldn't find a mention of who I was, though I could just be tired. Anyways, I'll ask someone tommorrow.

Why don't YOU go fight the dragon? :annoyed:

Climber, Porter, did you guys forget to take your next turns?

Reply #21 from Elemental Forums Top

oh? so building a Farm on fertile land expends essence now? o.O

Reply #22 from Elemental Forums Top

I do not know this is turn 2 already.  I've not seen activity in our little chat room for a while...

Reply #23 from Elemental Forums Top

Im just wondering how Raven used 3 essence in turn 2, even though all he did was build a farm.

Reply #24 from Elemental Forums Top

Turn 2.  I build a farm on the Fertile land. The SOv move NW. 

(Really not sure how I should submit the turn.)

I gracefully accept your Surrenders!
