So, rereading some old EOT's...Did anyone actually deal with the higher ups of the secret police who escaped?

They haven't made themselves known. There are still plenty of visible threats for everyone to deal with.

Just a reminder to everyone to get EoTs in by tomorrow morning. Hopefully I'll have enough time over the weekend to get them back to you on Sunday or Monday.

Guilds, I don't request anything from you this turn.

Really, if this all counts as one discussion, and doesn't take up next turn's Pm's, I'm fine to continue it into next turn, until everything is sorted out.

Sorry everyone for the delay. I'll get to write my EoT now.


EDIT: Sent. My plans are too straightforward. I must be doing something wrong.

On second thought, I must be doing a lot of things wrong. But, as I always say on Dwarf Fortress, "Loosing is fun".

Since the message system doesn't let me send messages to more than five people at a time...

I still need EoTs from the Church of Neposh, the Esoteric Society, the EBSA, House Laurier, the Heladuit Court, and the Militia of Order and Justice. Please get them to me soon.

So I don't suppose there's a chance everyone else who needed to just sent in their EOT's without mentioning it?

I currently have EoTs from everyone but League and TsukikoJ. If they get orders in before I'm done running EoTs, I'll accept them, but otherwise it looks like the Militia and House Laurier might miss a turn.

Well hopefully League posts, if only because I need him to follow through on a deal I'm paying for

They're still out there somewhere. I haven't had the oppertunity to search for them. I hope League gets in too, so many of my plans cycle around him it'll cancel out most of my turn as well.

thats why you put in some contigencies. that way you dont have to rely on other players to much.

Also, quick question about combat, if the fighting isn't taking place in a territory you control, can you take permanent losses from it? Mainly thinking of Mil and Mag here, or moral if it's a fight you lose.

It is possible to lose any stats involved in any fight anywhere on the map. Your soldiers, mages and spies might die, ammunition and important artifacts will be used up in the fighting, etc. It is even possible to lose stat points from battles that you win, due to attrition (which can be offset by recruitment drives, training, healing, etc--for example, the people involved in the fight against the Librarian this turn will find that they aren't losing stats to attrition because of the Bloodhaven personnel on the ground there).

Wait we are fighting the Librarian this turn already? I thought this turn was strategy discussion and we'd attack next turn...
Now I didn't send any troops and look like an *******. Great.

The Technist Guild has had to refrain from that, due to local plotics. Also, puppy, we need to have a chat.

This is the second turn of fighting for the coalition. Congratulations, you've failed to join the party late.

In seriousness, we're all late. Esoteric society, how many turns have you been fighting them alone?

This is the third turn of the ESGE fighting the Librarian. Fourth if you count the maneuvering in Redress Street that happened beforehand.

I'm sure Zemalec would allow a small change to your EoT since the new turn hasn't been posted yet.

At this point, please do not change your EoT unless you are sending me one for the first time this turn. I've gotten all of the responses to players pretty much written out at this point, and I want to focus my attention on writing the thread post so that I can get everything posted this evening.
