Well, although we could "over-rule" him by majority, a final response would be nice.

For my part - I had expected to be killed by mid-game, but the alliance with the monkey had proven to be one of the best (= most stable) alliances I've had before - thus allowing me to raise up in power parallel to Kuritza.

Approaching the end game, I had learned quite a bit about what one should do, but of course the monkeys had done so far earlier before -> lots lots of gem generators that I now was lacking.

Plus, I didn't know about the many counters to "obvious" strategies that players could use - I found them used against me, but was consequently limited to reacting to those tactics. I found Kuritza always one step ahead of me.

The only chance I had seen to win against him (knowing about his advantage in gems AND experience) was the possibility of him making fatal mistakes - but he managed his forces quite well, and I never really found weak points to exploit... so he really earned the victory.

I'd still love to get the turn file from when our hostilities started, and maybe the recent one. Plus, would you tell me how many gems were in the Storm and GoH ritual spells? Just for the experience :)

Great game so far -

I will send you some turn files when I have the time, no problems.

GoH is +999 nature gems. It was crucial for me, so I alchemised all my astral gems to finally secure it.
Current Perpetual storm is something like +60 or so, but I am not sure. It proved to be just ridiculously good against you, by the way, as my Rudras can fly during the storm, whereas your Angels cannot.

Yep, of course I'm fine with bowing under the wise leadership of our hairy cousins.

I though I wrote an answer already, but I must have tried to send it to fast after another one so it got deleted.
