Hrm. Keir, what did you ask about T'ien Ch'i? I must have missed it. Was it regarding the S&A and BK as well as summons type of thread?
I thought your Dancers of Death was a well formulated approach to the C'tis and put them in the running of potential MP candidate because of their fast expansion (akin to Caelum, Arco, Pythium and Micatan).
I don't particularly like the dancer unit later in the game even when you *can* mass produce it because they seem to really take a beating against a human opponent.
Maybe we could make or gauge a race/theme/pretender by a Triple T test. The Ten Turn Test.
What has it accomplished in raw numbers by turn 10 before you arrive at conflict (as a standard).
And I do apologize about our misunderstanding - though you shouldn't be grumpy
