A few points.

Planning for victory does not exclude realising the value of fortresses near the border with someone you don't wish to fight. Your opponnent looks at and thinks - "I'll take forever to take that" - and it influences their decision making. I'm not endorsing any specific low admin stronghold but saying that a part of the role of building castles is to secure the area. With the wide open multi-player borders of some maps castles are how we put down terrain and their defendability does matter. I'm aggressive but I don't invade all my neighbours at once.

Lizard Warriors ability to deal damage is brutal. As long as you have got a heat scale they can kill an early game super combatent - they've done it to my Niefelheim Earth 9 nature 9 blessed Niefel giant.

Didn't Alex mention he had success using big armies of LI javelin backed by a Lizard King and a couple of sacred serpents.

Cheers

Keir
