I got lost about at the same point in my game. I completely understand.

No problem. These things are supposed to be fun, not work. I look forward to your next endeavor (seeing that you are the greatest dynasty writer in FOFC history).

Thanks for it, tho - reading this made me pick up the game, and I'm loving it.

Thanks, guys. And again, sorry for stopping.

Celeval: Glad you've liked it. I'm definitely going to keep my eye on it as it develops, and may even try another (non-dynasty) game soon.

Kodos: I think we had a good run with Silicon Pirates and XCOM, but they were quite a while ago there have been many solid dynasties since then. I'm amazed at some of the neat ideas that people come up with for these things.

Raven Hawk: Yeah, the thing that tipped the scales for me was when another wave of dwarfs arrived and I realized I needed to make them all beds and chairs and tables and bedrooms and doors. Then I had to assign them jobs and sort out all the jobs. And then I had to figure out how I was going to write it all up to include all our participants. Yikes. It was like writing about a bowl of worms where you have to talk about what each worm is doing. It quickly went from fun to "have to" and that's not a good sign for a game for me.

I stand by my statement. You are, bar none, the best dynasty writer at FOFC. There are many other fine writers, but you are a cut above us.
