Good game guys! This was my first Dom3 MP win. The game moved very quickly and was a lot of fun
I was very fortunate to start in the lower right with basically the whole lower right corner to myself. I was also able to expand into the North and Center for a good bit until I met anybody, so except for an early war with Lanka (that was a tough decision to start that war), I had alot of time to build.
I built a bunch of temples early (only 200gp each) and as I started to see my dominion rise faster than I thought it would, I thought that I would be a target so I said the hell with it and just started building as many temples as I could each turn.
I then went defensive with Gift of Health and the Haunted Forest globals and just tried to wait it out, with a few excursions to try to pick up some buffer provinces.
So thanks again for the game, everyone and thanks to Rev in particular for hosting!
Sorry about your server. That's a real bummer.
