LOL

Blastphemer!

You have been deceived. You have Cos and I reversed in the story.

Except I didn't go to Jos. I've just made a few comments where you can't see. This is done because the it would reveal the true inner working of the universe and you would turn to a pilliar of salt.

Almost daily I have wiped ten of thousands of animals out of existance without nary a peice of meat being left behind (around 30,000 today).

That would say I am not "evil".

Some would say that it makes me "good". They would be dead wrong.

I was content with the animals doing as they will but then I found out what their true mission was.

Time itself. You see they are smart. If the animals take more than three hours a day to multiply the magic 200 minutues will not flow. Their goal has been to lock the characters out of the game so they will never be hit again.

I have seen this before, on a place far away from here. It was a planet called: "Earth".

There it was not the animals who tried to take over, but machines.
Mankind created machines to do mans bidding. And for a time, things were great. But after a while machines started to think for themselves. And dus AI was created.
The machines reached up and took an a war against the humans.
Unfortunatelly machines were better then the humans. The humans were lost. There was nothing more they could do. Untill a man came with an idea. An idea to blow up the sky. The machines needed sunlight as an energy source... without the sunlight, they thought that the machines would "die".
So they blew up the sky. All went black outside. No more sun for ever. And dus the planet also became unliveble for mankind and all other species.
The plan seemed to work, the machines no longer had the sun as an energy source. But then the machines found out the true engery hidden in human bodies. They extracted the energy they needed from the human they defeated. And they realised that the energy from a man was enough for them to survive.
The machines took over the world and entire civilizations were lost. They plugged all pple into a "virtual prison" a prison for the mind. And as the human were plugged in this prison the machines could extract all the energgy they needed from the humans.

to be concluded...

You see, maybe we need to blow up the sky... but then maybe the animals will use US as an energy source...
It's him.... The Anomaly...Do we proceed?..Yes.... He is still......only human.

On the good side, I asked the PD to delete an Aki island char of mine, but it looks like everyone on that island is going to be wolf food anyway.

The entire island will be extirpated of humans... if anyone ever finds it they will dock on a location with something like 876 657 324 234 364 animals.

Someday someone will, scream in terror and flee, then return with a band of hunters with crossbows and iron shields.

Nah, I think that if anyone ever did have iron shields and crossbows on that island, they would have to be foriegn. And by the time they arrived there, I am sure a few billion animals could EASILY wipe out a few iron shielded folk.

They could do sorties from the boat. Out, shoot the animals, back in the boat, repeat. I figure they could just hunt in that one place without ever killing all the animals, due to diffusion and reproduction.

Well not to give too much away, but part of that island does have adequate defenses and minimal aggressive animal; my char has no fear of these beasts.

I like Aki...turning into a nice fight for survival, my one char is still dodging the wolves after being seriously hurt after walking into the middle of 15 of them. He runs and what does he see on the road, more wolves...great fun...it is a little crazy though with the numbers of large carnivores running around.

Actually my character in the Aki region has been one of the most fun to play as well over the past few days.

Bears have been our undoing, although some in my party have had altercations with Wolves before, and we've just run into a pair ont he road home.

Tomatoes are certainly going to be a more valuable commodity than iron in the very near future!

I think the one change that would help level the field a little bit is one shot for every one or two animals in a location... It's just impossible for anyone to actually kill a bigger animal when you consider it takes 5-6 shots to take down a bear.... so to take down a full pack you'd need 50 heavily armed (and armoured) people...

not gonna happen.

My character and another are the only ones in their area with iron shields...they got to a forest earlier today and were attacked by boars, horses, wolves and cheetahs, all of which were repelled easily by the iron shields. Haven't tried bears yet. I love my war bow :mrgreen:

This is getting tiring. One of my characters leaves his town to flee from wolves which attack for no reaso, unlike the real wolves, these Cantr wolves are much more aggressive. but my character goes to another town to be killed by bears....the wolves numbered something like 6 or 7, and the bears were 10. I think these animals aggressions should get turned down a little bit. Animals like wolves should attack if they are attacked, and only randomly attack once in awhile. Since Iron is harder to come by whole towns are going to be wiped out if these animals keep attacking like this.
I know about wolves, Just look at my name, Wolves usually stay away from people, and normaly won't bother you unless you tick them off. I've heard that wild boars are very aggressive, should so many of them arrive in a town so fast? and should they reproduce so fast? I also agree that animal should kill each other. I could see a bear or wolf kill rabbits and racoons, or even each other. :evil:
Some are friends of the Wolf.....others are Dinner
