The war has started.

[sooooo]

Well we need to end first anyway because we have the first 18 hour slot.

Imperio don't actually know they are at war yet, I doubt they check the main forum and they haven't logged in since the declaration came. Let's hope the turn order goes smoothly.

[Krill]

Did Templars declare war last turn? If so, just end it before the 18 hours are up on civstats

[MyOtherCar]

Yes, Templars declared on Imperio, probably by an incentive from PAL (free tech). Do you mean ending the turn?

[Kodii]

How much do we want to bet Imperio moved out of their 18 hours?

[sooooo]

Imperio messed up, partly due to their fault (leaving it so late) and partly due to the switch of hosts (in the last few hours of their 16 hours, naldo said he was trying to connect but sunrise's server wouldn't let anyone do so but the timer still counted down). Templars played before them (cheeky IMO since naldo stated his connection problems in the public forum) and have effectively double-moved them.

Krill, what are your views on the situation?

[Swiss Pauli]

I think we're better off seeing whether Templars call a foul this turn (as Imperio will now double-move them because they both moved out of order last turn).

[sooooo]

Wouldn't it be better just for Templars to move before Imperio from now on?

[Swiss Pauli]

Yeah, but Templars may complain about Imperio moving outside of their window last turn. We should make our moves, and then play honest broker in a dispute that may arise.

[sooooo]

I don't think Templars would complain, since they benefit from double moving and Hercules wanted to go before Imperio anyway (he was complaining when it was the other way round). Imperio could have grounds to complain, but from naldo's post in the main forum he seemed fairly happy.

But I agree that we should stay out of any potential dispute.
