Quote from: Tanaka on February 08, 2024, 09:35:15 PMJust the bats left.

Sounds like we are all starting to meet each other now? Except maybe in the caves?

Bats are done!  I've popped out of the caves, anyone who goes snooping in my territory will see I don't have a lot of real estate beneath the dirt.  :embarrassed:

Interesting. As you had caves set to random you must have gotten put in a smaller cave. That probably means Agartha is ruling a large cave somewhere and neither of you have cave competition. Nuts!
Quote from: solops on February 08, 2024, 11:17:02 PMApparently we got numerous tiny caves.

Ah interesting! War of the tiny caves! With thrones to boot!

I'm sure the cave wars will come.... sooner or later....  :HideEyes:
A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

There are reports of coastal recruitment having issues after 6.06.
Do we want to wait for a hotfix?

You mean 6.05? My vote is nah we've all played our turns. Should be fixed before our next turn is finished.

I don't think any of us have specific coastal rec stuff?  It could matter a lot for someone like Phaecia but for our nations it probably does nothing?  Unless I'm forgetting something on one of them.

I think we should just advance, unless anybody is noticing being unable to recruit things they should be able to recruit.  "Coastal recruitment" is a specific meaning in dominions, basically national stuff that's only available on the coast.  I can recruit indies on coastal provinces like usual this turn.  None of us is Therados/Berytos/etc, so I don't think this bug influences our particular game whatsoever, but feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken.  If not, we might as well continue.

Agreed I don't think this affects any of us...

Yeah let's go ahead and push on.  Ysk, you're the last one left.   :knuppel2:

6.06

This is mostly a quick fix for the coastal fort recruitment that didn't work. Local network should also work with mods now as long as they are installed locally (not workshop).

General
Coastal fort recruitment didn't work
Local network is now fully working for non-workshop mods
Fix for indepenedents using path specific banishement spells
Huli Jing also got her glamour magic
Typo and stat fixes

So the tiny cave wars will be started by invaders from other caves. Thus harmonizing both of Al's posts:

Although now that I think of it after the joke -- I don't recall any faction up through Dom 5 featuring a culture like that, although several would have seemed ripe for it. Anything along this line for Dom 6?

Nooooo! Xibalba and Agartha are CAVE BUDDIES! Trouble will come from those odd, two-eyed, bat-hating surfacers.

I agree. Those surface dwellers are strange. Their affinity for the sun disgusts me.  :nono2:

Ok, turns sent.
Very rough start for me. Don't think I'll last much longer with Mekone coming down on me like a warhammer. ☺️
