I have also been very lucky in magic sites I have found, giving me easy access to every shpere of magic. I would have been in serious trouble otherwise, MA Caelum only has Air/Water really. Finally I have benefited by having strong reliable allies who are happy to trade magic items with me.
Interesting. I consider my own career in that game luckier than anyone deserves.
My luck has been manyfold:
Strategical, weak/stong/entangled neighbours whose homes I could take easily.
Magical, access to all magic but blood, nice sites.
Random stuff, nice events, and other random effects. Bad events on my neighbors finishing them off or blocking them.
Wonder if C'tis and Pangaea feels the same. Did they get lucky, or did they get stong by themselves

I built an awful pretender in this game and it's really no surprise that Meglobob rolled me playing Man. Not everyone has played this game as much as he has. I find this comment silly...
"None tried to counter my powerful air magic by spending 5A gems making rings of tamed lightning or copper plate."
I know personally that those wouldn't have helped in the slightest. I got beat by fog warriors being cast in multiple instances, and by a set of three raiding parties working over my borders. So I fail to see how either of these items would have made any difference.
