So far I've done the best with Rl'yeh. The early invulnerability (in most cases) of an underwater capitol is a great boon to me, and the ability to cut through indies like the cliched hot knife through butter is really great too (Indies no like mind bLast)...

When I got the game, I thought I'd do best with a Necromantic nation like Ermor or C'tis. No such luck, apparently... I suck with C'tis, and Ermor is... Ermory.

Hmm, is R'lyeh fast enough in MP ? Actually in SP I already have a lot of trouble cutting through indies (tritons that is) at all since they tend to swarm and cut down my fodder fairly fast and my Illithids can't survive for long if they are attacked by lots of "fliers" at once.

Due to this I mainly try to head for the land as fast as possible in SP, but in MP this would negate R'lyeh's advantage of "invulnerability" (except to Atlantis/Undead).

What are you doing to be able to expand fast vs. tritons ? Unless we are talking indies at 5 or lower that is
