Rubber does kill gameplay. No guts to it anymore.
GJ Goten, you got the guts still. |

Man o man, this sounds like it was so fun! I've been so busy this week I have not had the time to try these maps. I cannot wait to download them and check them out.
Congratulations to the finalists! May your battle be glorious! |

GJ Goten, I shall see you on the battlefield!!!
And we all thought the small maps were marathon makers, just wait until the entire map is played. Better bring your astronaut diapers and some meals-ready-to-eat as you'll need them! |

Sure, show up late and cheer SunTzu on!
Actually there are 7 people tied for the tops, so I'm not sure what we'll do if they all show up. First 6 get in the game maybe? |

| I played this with Sun Tzu when he was testing it, me him and one other human plus 2 reapers and a BoT of Doom. We played low % and high cards and the BoD ended up winning because it never bothered to take any income it just built armies and farmed for cards until the end when the humans hit each other then it took out all income and killed everyone because cash was crazy high after so many rounds and it could hit everyone so fast where as we poor humans couldn't cover the whole giant map in time. |

My favorite part of the chat so far has been dustin's play-by-play:

dustin: but they seem to have been contained outside of europe proper
dustin: France has conquered Spain and is pushing his influence outwards
dustin: England sits safe on its island home
dustin: merely toying with conquering the continent
dustin: the low countries are in shambles
dustin: but they're made of stern stock
dustin: can no true king ascend his empire to the entire known world? |

Wow that was an epic game!! Almost everyone was winning at some point. TurnipSlaya was victorious in uniting Europe after a long and hard Dark Ages battle - 4 hours 23 minutes.

SpiderMan and digital jihad came second and third. |
