"They worshipped, so they said, the Great Old Ones who lived ages before there were any men,
and who came to the young world out of the sky.
Those Old Ones were gone now, inside the earth and under the sea;
but their dead bodies had told their secrets in dreams to the first men,
who formed a cult which had never died."

Oh fuck I knew I was forgetting something.
WELP.

...so Chef. Let's discuss this a bit.
>Your Capital is besieged by Ys.
>Mictlan nibbles your southern border.
>You took Cedarwood from me 5 turns ago, giving me all the time in the world to prepare due to your stales...
>Finally, you return at the helm of your nation and instead of sueing for peace to deal with the actual invaders you took another lousy province from me. At least this time it's part of a fortress ring.
First of all let me Press_F_to_pay_respects to you
that takes balls.
Now prepare to be hit by
of the Heavy Duty kind...

It might have had something to do with the Citadel of peace you erected on my southern border. Anyhow, I'm not one to hold a grudge. Let bygones be bygones, and welcome all to the hospitable land of Ur! Sorry to have kept you waiting, but the cultural exchange committee needed the extra turns to perfect their song, dance and lightshow routine.
Please hold your current position for seating instructions and complementary drinks.

These random events adding sites and PD are getting a little out of hand. Yes, that's 21 Eagle Warriors defending the library now. I also feel like I should get 2 for 1 barbarians now.
Dafuq? I have a ton of fortune tellers able to predict bad events. I already had, 2 barbaric invasions (one scheduled for next turn), a local noble revolting and forming a 22 cavs strong indie, the Lich chain of events (the full one, in which you first kill a minion and then the Lich himself) AND a +7 PD on a useless province.
I'd take that 40 PD instead, thanks!
edit: Oh, and on turn 4 a pack of dogs took one of my cap ring provinces. Dogs.

The throne of War has been malfunctioning lately, sorry. No need to thank Ys for free hilarity, we are too busy taking the oceans from tritons for the second time in a year.

Aaaand the RNG allowed Ulm to safely move off my capital and smash the reinforcements. GG, I'll probably file a few more rounds for posterity but no way I can replace my combat losses with my surrounding provinces occupied. Any particular etiquette prior to going AI I should be aware of?

If it's hopeless, just alerting us that you are going AI is usually fine. If there's a chance at anything, finding a sub is preferable.
I'll probably just go AI, forgetting this game was going on didn't help me.
Don't forget to redirect that doomstack somewhere else first, pls. Ponies are getting nervous

Mondblut likes to play against AI, but does he like to play against impossible AI?

It could go west and harass Rlyeh. Hopefully wander UW by mistake and sink there, I dunno.

Well, since his cap is besieged, it's not like the AI could make any use of that infinite gold and stuff, right?
Right?
I suppose no one really knows... I think what you wrote is right, if a fortress is besieged you have no unit production.
It wouldn't be the first time Dom5 trolls me with slightly different mechanics though.
