It looks like the term to keep in mind is "critical mass".

Half a dozen theurgs casting Thunderstrike isn't too bad; send in 100 troops, soak up some damage, kill them.

Two dozen theurgs doing the same? Ouch. Time to look into plan B.

Just took one of my worst defeat in this game.
I have even lost a Visitor to Pythium... what a shame.

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

pythium- we are cancelling our NAP.

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

Why not cancel NAPs with Abysia :D

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

Why bother? They can just wait a few turns, then take all my provinces from Pythium.

Why can't we just give peace a chance?

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

The goblins of shinuyama are afraid that if they do not stop the pythium pretender now and his armies of artifact-laden elemental royalty, scores of theurgs and several score green lion, with the help of abyssia and r'leyh now, the pythium pretender will never be stopped. So, from our point of view, its now or never.


EDIT: since its now largely irrelevant, can you share with us, Mockingbird, how you took such a decisive research lead? I've played pythium twice and never managed to do anything quite like you did? It was (and continues to be) very impressive indeed.

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

It's hardly a mystery -- he has at least half a dozen castles popping out theurgs left and right. With that many mages, his research will naturally be huge.

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

oh kay- next question- how he cast well of misery...

Re: Colonial Conquest - MA - (Running)
 

Acashic Record, lots of surplus death gems. Also his pretender has D4 (along with E4N4).
