Tricks up your sleeve? let me guess, AC ?

Oh, I didn't mean anything specific when I said that, just that I could do my best to hurt you.
Having said that, AC obviously is a nice spell. In fact, I was on my way to cast it when Burden of Time killed the only mage I had with a ring of wizardry (which I need to cast it with my warlocks), and by the time I had dispelled it (using up all my astral (and many non-astral) gems in the proces, so I had to wait a bit to forge a new ring), you had put the nexus up. At this point it won't save me anymore, as you'll just dispel it - with my bloodhunters being capital only - and the fact that I have to keep a decent number of them with my armies since it's the only thing I have that can kill your seraphs (and they obviously need a nice supply of slaves too) - my blood income just isn't big enough. In short: I'm dead.
As for my preference, I'm a bit in the same situation as you, it is indeed fun to try to find ways to hurt/delay/annoy you, and it certainly taught me to appreciate the power of blood magic. (first time in either SP or MP I use it extensively, and never came up against it before), but on the other hand I could start up a new game and discover a new race and new oponents, instead of fighting a lost war. All in all I have maybe a very slight preference for calling it a day, but if you prefer to keep going a few turns, I'll be happy to be a thorny punching bag for you.
