    Could I please have a 48 hour extension? If for some reason I do not play my turn by the final deadline, I give @Myth full permission to play my turn.. :)

    Wow, Gondor's generals must have some movement points. All the chicken flew from the coop. My troll-men wanted to invite them to a friendly barbeque as dinner.

    I think the Gondorians were more worried by those flying rock contraptions than the soldiers of Harad.

    Alas poor Haesilthir (or something along those lines), who I did click on to check movement radius, and then accidentally clicked again into enemy territory. You will be missed, with no disrespect intended if the invitations to your funeral have your name misspelled.

    If its my territory, I don't want to punish a genuine misclick. As long as he does nothing but walk directly away next turn, I'll leave him alone.

    When inevitable victory comes to me, I don't want to give you any excuses! :)

    Towards Harad actually, bravely sieging a city by himself because I was checking movement points.

    Thanks to Myth for holding the save for me.

    In light of recent events I had to run through a couple of the Sylvan Elves turns. The good news is that nothing game breaking. In fact, I think a couple of very small changes would return the status quo pre any shenanigans for the Sylvans.

    The bad news is that we will be down a player Given the balance issues arising from the extra player for the "good" side and Isengard's defeat I'm inclined not to seek a new one. However, the Sylvans, like Gondor, are at a main front with two enemy factions. Would just turning them AI be the best route or create more problems that it would solve?

    Turning the Sylvan Elves AI would not put the Free Peoples at much of a disadvantage. Yes, the AI doesn't do a good job of playing the game by sending small armies out and about. But that's the only real disadvantage for the good side. Even if they get rolled over by two factions it would move the game along. We've played into our 23rd turn in less than a year.

    @Mithridate How can you sub? Get back into UDS and play your turn!!

    I suggest fixing the faction and subbing it or assigning it to another player.

    @Zim?
    I think it would be best to try to fix them and give them to a player. If that proves impossible, switch em to ai.

    I had fun, but the distances really prevented a true hotseat total war to form. Anyone want to restart this in TATW 3 ? The third installment is all kinds of awesome! Perhaps Gondor and Rohan versus Mordor and Haard/Rhun?

    I too enjoyed the game, but the way the mod is set up just didn't seem to accommodate hotseat play in my opinion. Good game all!

    Well, Gondor, Rohan and the Silvan Elves all are on the battlefield itself, as well as Dale, Mordor, and Haard. The High Elves, Eriador, half of the Dwarves and Rhun take more time to get to the action and I don't think they are feasible for HS play.
