    Rad sounds like Ketbra is in, and Albino Bunny is going to be a new moderator.
    Just wanna give a shoutout that reserves are always good too, in case anyone else is thinking of signing up.

    If anything it releases some tension, in the decision of bowing out,
    knowing some capable folk are in the background, to fill in.

    Most of these Mega Games, someone's family gets sick, work goes crazy, etc.
    If you are still interested in participating in a game like this, we'd love to have ya as a reserve!

    Goodness, in all the excitement, I did forget about this. (I’m so much more used to.... captive audiences.) if you are interested in possibly stepping in as needed, please say so!

    Also, depending on how this goes, this may not be the final struggle for Hell.

    @Auralynx @Invictus @Assuran while I wish you the best I know I won't be able to give this the attention it deserves. I hope that Nether Argentina prospers in ways that Zombie Apocalypse Argentina could hardly dream of!

    So that's settled. If any other Phalla vets (or anyone else, really) want to throw in with what we originally put together as the Critical Failures B team, we'd be glad to have you. If not, luck of the draw works too.

    So yeah, with @Infidel and @Rainfall together we are totally team MURDERBOT (what from the MURDERBOT phalla game and Liiya's game where we built the Gundams which are basically tall, less equipped MURDERBOTs)

    So I guess we should totally be House Wrath, right?

    And we need one more person for our SHINING BURNING FINGER configuration to grasp victory, if we need four members to make a megazord voltron MURDERBOT?

    There's def folk I know I'd have a good time teaming up with,
    but at the same time, competing with them sounds rad too!

    I'm really looking forward to a random assignment.
    &, I'm def going to look out for any super teams, and use that in consideration.
    Also, it seems like a game where there are betrayal mechanics, so it'll be interesting to see sparks fly in any group with a bunch of power players.

    I'm looking forward to my new teammates, and yo,
    if your victory condition is to stab me in the back,
    Go for it!
    I'm betting it will be hilarious.

    Besides, I feel like part of this game is being a Guinea Pig for Matev.

    Know now that I have Read the Rules, in their Entirety.
    Pray that I do not gain Understanding Thereby.

    How do you gain control of additional Cantons? Moving Legions onto them, or only by that expensive ritual magic?

    If a canton is unoccupied, merely march your legion in and they'll take control.

    You'll have to fight for unoccupied Places of Power though, they're prideful like that.

    The map key holds many secrets.

    Normally, the demons of each canton will offer up 1 of the resource they harvest a turn. There may be ways to coerce more out of the shiftless goldbrickers.

    What are the mechanics for a traitor supplanting a ruler as referenced in the Root Out Traitors action?

    Assuming, of course, those aren't supposed to be intentionally opaque
