Pulse, I spent [5] from Lia in addition to the widgets from Hurricane in order to pay for the Factory in Graalok-Koro, because Hurricane only had [30]. Kaukau Falls falls! New Tahu didn't get to use its new army, but Harakeke Metru certainly didn't need the extra help. Two Neutral Cities remain. New Tahu (Supporting) 2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. Total: 36 attack. Harakeke Metru 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack. 5th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 2nd Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 18 attack. Total: 41 attack + 36 attack = 77 attack. Kaukau Falls 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 4th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. 7th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 26 defense. Widget totals updated. Map updated. Tuyet Nui purchases a Division (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Light Defense) and a Workshop.

Graalok-Koro falls! Despite the fact that the attackers from Lia had been expecting support and did not receive it, and despite the fact that the defenders of Graalok-Koro were able to make use of a newly built Large Citadel, the attack on Graalok-Koro was successful, leaving only Christmas Town, New Artakha, Tuyet Nui, and Kaukau Falls standing as the last city-states not part of a larger nation. Lia 2nd Battalion (Medium Attack, Light Defense): 4 attack. 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense): 16 attack. 1st Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack): 24 attack. Total: 48 attack. Graalok-Koro 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 2nd Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 24 defense. Total: 32 defense + 6 defense (Large Citadel) = 38 defense. Note: the support from Hurricane was not possible because Hurricane does not border Graalok-Koro. Widget totals updated. Map updated (new host!). Lewa, if you are still interested in playing, you should probably pick between New Artakha, Tuyet Nui, and Kaukau Falls before all the Neutral Cities are conquered by the existing players! New Artakha purchases a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Kaukau Falls purchases a Division (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Light Defense).

No news on the map. I had assumed Majhost would be back up by now. I will find an alternative host. While you wait, there is still the text map here.

Attack on Graalok-Koro repulsed! When Graalok-Koro's 1st and 3rd Squads mounted the battlements, it appeared for a brief moment as if the city would fall. Soon, though, Graalok-Koro's 1st Army showed up and transformed appearances into reality. Lia 5th Squad (Heavy Battle): 5 attack. 2nd Battalion (Medium Attack, Light Defense): 4 attack. 4th Battalion (Heavy Attack, Bridge Destroying): 6 attack. Total: 15 attack. Graalok-Koro 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 1st Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 24 defense. Total: 30 defense. Widget totals updated. Graalok-Koro purchases a Large Citadel. New Artakha, Tuyet Nui, and Kaukau Falls each purchase a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense).

I just realized I messed things up further by referring to the three-property unit in my last post as "Battalion," when I meant "Division." Rather than delay the game further, I assumed you wanted a Division with Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, and Heavy Defense, and processed the purchase. If you would rather I had done something different, let me know and I'll change it retroactively. Manas Metru Conquered! The Town with No Name just managed to overcome the defenses of its own colony. The Town with No Name 1st Battalion (Medium Attack, Medium Defense): 6 attack. 3rd Battalion (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense): 10 attack. 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack. Total 26 attack. Manas Metru 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 1st Battalion (Heavy Defense, Light Defense) 8 defense. 5th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 24 defense. Nui Gaga Conquered! Though Nui Gaga put up a very impressive defense, the city was still no match for three armies. Harakeke Metru (Supporting) 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack. 5th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 2nd Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 18 attack. Total: 41 attack. New Tahu (Supporting) 2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. Total: 36 attack. Luri-Metru 2nd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack. 3rd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack. 4th Battalion (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack): 12 attack. Total: 18 attack + 36 attack + 41 attack = 95 attack. Nui Gaga 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 2nd Division (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 18 defense. 1st Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 24 defense. Total: 46 defense. Widget totals updated. I am in a different time zone now so I may change the official day end time soon. This day, at least, will be extended, since I got the results out so late. New Artakha purchases a Division (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Tuyet Nui purchases an Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense).

Pulse, I didn't process your Army purchase right away because I noticed you were buying an Army but only three properties, and since you can't add properties on later, the only reason I can think of for purchasing an Army instead of a Battalion Division would be if you happen to prefer the name "Army" over "Battalion" "Division," and I wanted to check with you first to be sure you didn't want to add another property or save 18 widgets. Though the day is technically over, since I haven't processed the results yet, let me know if you would like to change this purchase before I do. Lewa, have you chosen a Neutral City you would like to take over? EDIT: Looks like I just made things more confusing. Terminology fixed.

No combat occured today. Widget totals updated. Kaukau Falls purchases a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense).

Purchase processed. Hello, Lewa of comedic fame! Glad to have you here. Majhost is only down for maintenance, so I hesitate to abandon it yet. For now, here is what the map looks like. There are bridges which allow any city to attack any adjacent city (horizontally, vertically, and on angles), except that Christmas Town has destroyed all the bridges connecting to it. The color of the text represents the element of the city: green is air, red is fire, blue is water, and black is ice. [Christmas Town][Lia –--------------][Hurricane –--][The Town with No Name] [Graalok-Koro --][Koburg –-------- ][Manas Metru][New Artakha –----------- ] [Nui Gaga –----- ][New Tahu –----- ][Matoro-Koro ][Tuyet Nui –--------------- ] [Luri-Metru –---- ][Harakeke Metru][Kaukau Falls][Marauder's Waste –-----]

Purchases processed. New Tahu Conquered! In one of the most overwhelming victories ever seen in these lands, the combined might of Luri-Metru and Harakeke Metru crushed New Tahu's defense. Both Luri-Metru and Harakeke brought enough firepower to the battle that either one of them could have been victorious alone, and together their strength was great enough that it is a testament to the bravery of the defenders of New Tahu that they did not simply flee at the sight of the enemy. Harakeke Metru (Supporting) 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack. 5th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 2nd Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 18 attack. Total: 41 attack. Luri-Metru 2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. Total: 36 attack + 41 attack = 77 attack. New Tahu 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 2nd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. 8th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 26 defense. Note: the rules stated that "Units automatically have resistance to the element of the location their city is in, and this automatic resistance does not take up one of their properties." To be clear, units have resistance to the element of the location their city is in . . . when they are purchased. I have edited the rules so that they reflect this. This means that all of the units currently belonging to Harakeke Metru have Fire Resistance, since they were purchased in Luri-Metru. Eventually, I will probably have to denote each unit's automatically gained elemental resistance in the unit lists, as it may become difficult to remember where a unit originally came from. For now, though, it should be obvious that the units in Harakeke were not originally purchased there, as if they were they would not have needed Water Resistance. Widet totals updated. Majhost is down so the map is currently unavailable and cannot be updated. Graalok-Koro and Tuyet Nui both purchase an Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Manas Metru, New Artakha, Nui Gaga, and Kaukau Falls each purchase a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense).

Whom is this temple for?

Purchase processed. New Artakha purchases an Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Nui Gaga and Kaukau Falls both purcase a Division (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). New Taha purchases a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). This post will be updated with the day's results if nobody else posts before then. UPDATE: Failed Attack on New Artakha! Another day, another attacking army hampered by its lack of elemental resistance. The forces of New Artakha easily defeated the attackers from The Town with No Name. The Town with No Name 1st Battalion (Medium Attack, Medium Defense): 6 attack. No Air Resistance 2nd Battalion (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense): 10 attack. No Air Resistance 2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack. Total: 10 attack. New Artakha 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 3rd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 20 defense. Widget totals updated.

Purchases processed. Harakeke Finally Falls! More details on the battle will be reported tomorrow after the witnesses recover from their shock at the outcome. Luri-Metru 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack. 5th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. 2nd Army (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 18 attack. Total: 41 attack. Harakeke Metru 4th Squad (Heavy Defense): 6 defense. 5th Squad (Heavy Defense): 6 defense. 2nd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 24 defense. Widget totals updated. Map updated. Neutral City purchases coming soon.

Koburg Conquered! The same victorious army that not so long ago conquered Matoro-Koro went on to conquer Koburg today in a similar fashion. Matoro-Koro 1st Battalion (Heavy Battle, Heavy Battle): 10 attack. 2nd Battalion (Heavy Battle, Heavy Battle): 10 attack. 1st Squad (Heavy Attack): 6 attack. Total: 26 attack. Koburg 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 3rd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 18 defense. Widget totals updated. Graalok-Koro purchases two Armies, each with (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Nui Gaga purchases an Army (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). Manas Metru, New Tahu, and Harakeke Metru each purchase a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). This day may be extended as I anticipate being especially busy.

Back in the day, before I got into the story at all, I assumed Lewa Mata had machine guns built into his left hand. Tahu was my sister's set and I'm not sure if I considered his left hand to have built-in guns or not. There weren't any holes for the bullets to come out, after all.

Widgets transferred.

Mata Nui Is Website Hacker, Obviously Likes Harakeke Metru! The brave defenders of Harakeke watched the forces of Luri-Metru fail to seize the city yet again. (For the record, I am using Random.org for both the attacker and the defender. I have been very tempted to re-roll for the attacker several times now . . .) Luri-Metru 2nd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack. No Water Resistance 3rd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack. No Water Resistance 4th Battalion (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack): 12 attack. No Water Resistance Total: 0 attack. Harakeke Metru 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 5th Squad (Heavy Defense): 6 defense. 4th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 22 defense. Lia Conquered! Despite a treasury overflowing with widgets that could have paid for a far stronger defense, Lia was caught unprepared by Hurricane and its newly upgraded army. Though Lia was unprepared, its citizens still came very close to repelling the attack and saving their city. Very close, but not close enough. Hurricane 5th Squad (Heavy Battle): 5 attack. 2nd Battalion (Medium Attack, Light Defense): 4 attack. 4th Battalion (Heavy Attack, Bridge Destroying): 6 attack. Total: 15 attack. Lia 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 4th Squad (Heavy Defense): 6 defense. Total: 12 defense. Widget totals updated. Neutral City purchases will come later today, as will the updated map. Merry new year, everyone!

I vote for Overscore's proposal. Proposal: Once this proposal becomes a rule, Rule 1 is repealed and is no longer a rule. Any BZPower member may propose a rule in this topic at any time. When there are five or fewer members on the Player List, whenever two BZPower members other than the member who proposed the rule post in this topic saying that they vote for the rule, the proposed rule becomes a rule of this game. When there are six or more members on the Player List, whenever three BZPower members other than the member who proposed the rule post in this topic saying that they vote for the rule, the proposed rule becomes a rule of this game.

Purchases processed. New Artakha Repulses Attack! The Town with No Name tried again today to colonize New Artakha, but the strength of its attacking force was once again diminished by the elements it encountered. The Town with No Name 1st Battalion (Medium Attack, Medium Defense): 6 attack. No Air Resistance 2nd Battalion (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense): 10 attack. No Air Resistance 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack. Total: 10 attack. New Artakha 1st Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 6th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 18 defense. Widget totals updated. Koburg and Harakeke Metru both purchase a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). New Artakha, New Tahu, and Kaukau Falls each purchase a Large Workshop.

Since an attack against a bridge still involves randomly selecting three units, if your unit with Brige Destroying is not among the three selected, the attack will fail. Do you still want to try, though?

Purchase processed. Ten Billionth Failed Attack on Harakeke Metru! In what is becoming somewhat of a pattern, Luri-Metru tried and failed, once again, to conquer Harakeke Metru. With the strength of the Luri-Metru Army growing at a faster rate than that of Harakeke, the watery realm is bound to fall sometime, and it is rather surprising it has not already done so. We are sure to see this familiar battle repeated soon, but perhaps next time with a different outcome. Luri-Metru 3rd Battalion (Light Attack, Light Battle): 3 attack. No Water Resistance 1st Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Battle, Water Resistance): 11 attack. 4th Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Attack, Water Resistance): 12 attack. Total: 23 attack. Harakeke Metru 2nd Squad (Medium Defense): 4 defense. 1st Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. 3rd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 28 defense. Widget totals updated. Manas Metru purchases a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense). New Artakha and Tuyet Nui both purchase a Large Workshop.

Purchases processed. Surprise Attack on New Artakha! Armed matoran from The Town with No Name surged across the bridge connecting their city to New Artakha in an attempt to establish a new colony. Unfortunately for the leaders of The Town with No Name, their 1st Battalion was hampered by its lack of resistance to New Artakha's element, and the better prepared 2nd and 3rd Divisions couldn't quite pull off the victory alone. The Town with No Name 1st Battalion (Medium Attack, Medium Defense): 6 attack. No Air Resistance 2nd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack. 3rd Division (Heavy Attack, Heavy Defense, Air Resistance): 10 attack. Total: 20 attack. New Artakha 3rd Squad (Light Defense): 2 defense. 2nd Battalion (Heavy Defense, Light Defense): 8 defense. 5th Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense): 12 defense. Total: 22 defense. Widget totals updated. New Tahu, Harakeke Metru, and Kaukau Falls each purchase a Battalion (Heavy Defense, Heavy Defense).

I vote for Valendale's proposal.

I'd vote for that, provided it was edited first to clarify exactly what throwing out a porposal does.

Valendale's proposal is now a rule. Proposal: If a member posts in this topic and becomes a player, and states that an existing player recruited him to join the game, the player who recruited the new player gets one Protodermis Vial. The number of Protodermis Vials each player has will be kept in the first post.

I vote for Valendale's proposal.
