Cohen you can not seriously expect everyone else to sit and watch your empire grow to over twice the size of everyone elses and then stop and allow you time to consolidate and be nice enough to attack you one or two at a time. Thats the way the politics of this game work, and thats the way they SHOULD work. Next time you should realize this and cut your growth back in favor of consolidation so you dont become the automatic target.

Don't count on it with Cohen. This is the second game I've been in with him where he was way ahead of everyone in the graphs and then quit. The other one, he was sprawled across almost the whole width of a wrap around map (Orania), with most of it being only 2 to 3 provinces 'deep'. Sure, he was able to expand massively and have 'fun' doing so, but while building an empire that was ridiculously fragile and vulnerable. Soon as people started hitting the weak links - AI. Still in the lead on most graphs.
