Re: A lesson learned.
Good war, Steerpike. You and Jontunheim attacked me at the worst time (for me) since Abysia had just started a war with Vanheim and I jumped on that bandwagon. But I then jumped right off and abandoned that war to hit you back when you both invaded me. Now, it looks like Vanheim is mostly dead from the combined might of Abysia and Pythium, even without my help over there.
Of course, I am getting overrun by Jontun since I ignored him for the most part trying to kill you. I hope to hit him back sometime soon. And if you would hurry up and die, it sure would be a lot easier for me!
By the way, you are fully correct about the pretender. It is a huge mistake to have your 300 HP God stuck in high level enemy dominion and down to 35 HP. They don't Last long like that no matter how strong they are. I thought you should have sent your pretender back home instead of invading my capitol. You probably could have reclaimed most of your original territory back that way since it is all lightly defended.
As for the magic of Caelum, I have been on the receiving end of exactly that in several of my previous and ongoing MP games. This is my first attempt trying out a heavily magical race. It does seem to work satisfactorily, despite the hard research in this particular game.
I also learned early on in my few MP games that heavy searching for magic sites just might be the most important thing you can do. So I did that in this game for the first time, and it worked out well for me.
