OK, not really, but I just felt the urge to post something. Anything. ... How is everyone? I've been busy at work + enjoying the sunshine + ill, so progress on...
... I'd strongly suggest not using any location name from LOM or DDR either. No "Kor", "Ithril", "Valethor" or "Varenorn" for instance. J-Y, will you...
... either. No ... Agreed. Yes, in fact that's a new rule :) ... apply ... instance) You'll automatically be registered, in fact you already are as you have...
... Quite so :D Having said that, I need a decent user name. "JeanYves" is hardly the kind of name to inspire fear into the hearts of the enemy hordes!...
... Hehe. Merely a hypothetical example, I assure you. Not that I haven't had to use other characters when this one was once forced to leave a PBeM. Unlike ...
... Now that depends entirely on how many troops you have! Cecil the bold commands one thousand riders, one thousand two hundred warriors and an aircraft...
Could I ask anyone who had requested to play M/MU *prior* to my email of 6th Aug 2004 to resubmit their details please. I changed email address recently and...
Right then, just realised something: I'm going to have to send out an awful lot of emails with passwords. To save me this hassle, please could you also submit...
Just thought I'd say WELCOME to all the new members who have joined recently. For you information, this group is a quiet group. We can say nothing for ages and...
Nice touch Chris. Quiet? - Your not kidding there! As the grave this past couple of weeks... I was going to say something but was a bit caught out myself, so...
Okay, since I haven't got the foggiest as to what "fish mines" means (do I wanna know, I wonder ?!) I'm gonna try something with you. By the way, hi to all out...
Marc, that's quite some line of defence that you are holding! :) Personally if the Marakith region has been retaken, you're unlikely to get more goons turning...
... It is unlikely that the doomguard are actually tracking Korinel, he is not really important enough. No army starts with this objective. And unless Luxor or...
Hi Chris, ... That's interesting to know. In practise I already noticed they sometimes (but not always...perhaps although they have lost track of youthey still...
... Korinel starts out on foot, so no he never has a horse until he finds wild horses. I'd forgotten that LOM reverts Citadels back to the "Free". Maybe that's...
Hi Jean-Yves, ... In the old days I kept it much simpler: either 1) let Morkin destroy the icecrown or 2) everyone to Xajorkith and wait it out - then to...
... If regiments are on a mission, then they rarely stray from there preferred marching direction to reach their target. A quick scan round and then move on....
... There is an option in TME for this, scenario writers can turn this on or off. The lords taking back the Citadel takes ownership of it. However I think...
... The AI doesn't asses this kind of information. I guess you may have been caught by late stragglers following the routing map, or stumbling along those...
... Hi Chris, I'd hate to disagree, but in both TME and the PC conversion (my The Citadel version at least) once you recapture a keep or citadel you usually...
... The strangeness continues I'd say; today (day 38) I once more recruited Korinel the Fey in his own village with 645 men at his side by the Lord of Dreams...
... I must admit that I do similar. I hold a line from Shimeril, through Marakith and Kumar and up to Ithrorn. A couple of Lords at Dawn in reserve, and Gard...
... Yeh, this is basically true. "Supply lines" have only really become an issue since war has come to depend on oil (and to some extent, modern ammunition)....
... Indeed, although if you run into an enemy prepared to use a scorched-earth policy you are going to starve without some means to run up supplies if need be....
... Yep, there is the trust placed in you by the people of Midnight to absolve them from any chilly harm coming their way. We are taking on the role of a just...
