Everything.

As a rule you can't go wrong with demonic monkies.

But unvaried. And most other nations can spam their own powerful evocations, often for less money.

Of course Lanka is the best early nation, Ravana has 10 heads and 20 arms, the Chandrahas moon blade and the biggest harem you've ever seen.

Re: POLL: Nation Preferences
 

People seem to think that Lanka is some kind of super nation, even though they've only ever won one Multiplay game, and that was a Newbie game. Heck, in just about every other MP game I've played they don't even make it to the midgame.

Re: POLL: Nation Preferences
 

Lanka has the best late-game of any nation, IMO, and should have a very powerful early game, if played well. Their middle game isn't terrible, especially if played carefully.

Re: POLL: Nation Preferences
 

Heh. The Multiplay scores don't agree.

Sure, the "Victorious Nations/Hall of Fame" scores aren't a truly representative sample, but I've never even heard of someone winning a MP game with Lanka (other than me in a single Newbie game).

Re: POLL: Nation Preferences
 

The multiplayer scores aren't a very good sample, either. Especially since Lanka hasn't been around as many of the other nations.

One thing about this game is that nations seen as strong get ganged up on, so their performance is hurt. But seen equally, lanka has a number of strengths over its opponents.
