TURN 131-135
I’m losing ground to Ulm on dominion; I need more temples. Man is crumbling. I finally take the Caelum fortress, just before Caelum’s Pretender attacks! After a turn of my summoning,...

Re: AI Thoughts

On the northeast/east bridge front, by hitting the C’tis with two Lesser Horrors a turn, I hold them off and kill lots of them. I...

Re: my first AAR - Arco DL, first 6 turns - newbie
