A short brief on Oceania is that the nation is weak. The trient knights were quite powerful and provide an easy thug to use. Otherwise, the mages are deplorable because they have very limited paths which mostly disappear when leaving the water. I feel very fortunate that there was no other water nation which helped me be big in the game.

The free access water nations have to invading countries that border the ocean is impressive. I could enter and leave at different points for raiding that is quite useful. This is the only reason I was useful against Pythium. Even though he concentrated on me and made me pay with numerous commander deaths, I had the benefit of fading away from his main armies until they got worn down a bit.

Finally, maelstrom is a good global. It increases all of the gems a little, which actually was quite nice.

THank you all for the game. I enjoyed it.
