@Boontaker remember to put a password on your pretender. Otherwise anyone else can load your turn (and spy on you/play for you).

AI art for the deathmatch results!?
@Irenaeus What site did you use for the pixel art?

Completely forgot about the deathmatch! Thanks for reminding me, I'll see if I can make some art about it. I use Bing to generate it:
https://www.bing.com/images/create/
For the pixel art I just added 16-bit art in the end. You can experiment with many pixel styles if you want.
Here's what it looks like:

I havent explored much, so far it looks pretty much like the last map. What's up my Jomonese brother, what's going on your side of the map?

- the worst possible starting terrain so far. my cap is literally in the middle of mountains and I am cut off going into any direction, which is especially problematic for jomon because every unit is dirt slow. even 1 forest asphodel is more playable.
- the most terrible throne defender possible (paralyze mage with trash troops)
- the worst neighbor possible. it is already guaranteed that I have to fight man to the fucking death for basic lebensraum just like Na'Ba in the last game
it is basically the same shit all over again but even worse.

The Death Match has ended! A champion has been named!
Him! Chosen one of the nation of Man! Woe upon you who threaten the forest!

The item Him has received is a bit odd, How do units choose what weapon to attack with? He got the champions blade, but as a mounted unit he also has a lance. Will he only use the sword once he is dismounted?

When you equip them with new weapons, they will use that weapon instead of their regular. There's two settings: regular weapons or equipped weapons.
The lance is used only once in combat, the CHAAARGE, then the mounted unit switches to its regular weapon.
He will use the sword instead of his regular weapon before and after being dismounted, until he wins, dies, routs or loses that arm.

Ok, giving away the some tactical info but I need an answer.
My throne gives "blessed units +3 defense" does this only work on sacreds or any unit that receives a bless?

It's not THAT big of a secret hehe We all got this message:
Then, it's a simple matter of going here:
https://larzm42.github.io/dom6inspector/
and clicking on the throne to check it out:
And to answer your question, the bonus +3 of the Throne will affect all units you can bless, both your original sacreds and any other unit with the "sacred" attribute, such as summons and rare indie recruitables, for example: Pegasus Riders that you can recruit at Crystal Amazon provinces.
Interesting fact: I claimed the Throne of Water in the previous game.

I somber post in respect for our beloved Decline, fallen way too early in the game. May his Mighty AI be a headache to whoever play against it.

@Kalarion you're gonna miss another turn!
@Decline can you give the man an extension?

Someone is very close to winning!
@Boontaker
@Decline nice of you to take it easy on your bros with going only Difficult AI instead of Mighty AI like
@Emphyrio did last game, that one was a doozy. Your Jomonese empire should be easier to eat now.

Unfortunately it does not seem possible to give admin privileges to someone else.
Do you need longer turn timers?
Actually yeah, it is very probable Boontaker will take this game by a combination of sheer luck and choice of nation. This game basically is a rehash of RPGHQ2: The nation with the strongest early game starts in the vicinity of ample thrones.

Call me crazy but I think I can beat him.
About turn timers,
@Kalarion the man struggling with time should chip in.

I'm fine, my stale turn was due to air travel and I was able to complete last turn just under the clock.

What a surprising turn of events!
I hope you'll honor our earlier pact of non-aggression and not attack me before we agreed upon.

Irenaeus has the other 3 thrones, he's just stalling at this point. Unless he stalls too much and I take one

I can't believe I was
backstabbed attacked by Ulm on some random forest of all places. See that's why you sign non-aggression pacts.
Honorable mention to
@Boontaker for not breaking the period of non-aggression from our pact. Though they did kill my scout.
Now I'm fighting on two fronts and if I lose that throne to Man it's over, he wins!

Where did you get that I have 3 thrones? Or that I'm stalling even. There's one next to my cap with a million defenders that I have no way of taking for a long time. The only other throne left is in the border between me and Gath, which I can't get anyway because I'm fighting two enemies now, you and Ulm.
