Yes, TC is a trouble, but it's beatable. Stats show that TC army is same with mine — and I have only 150 units and 7 commanders. Yes, gem income is stunning, but half of this income = clams on researches — some falling foo and they're gone. The other half comes from provinces, which could be easily taken with any raiding spell.

I think you just pay too much attention to the game. It takes me 20 minutes to make a turn, and it's worth the time. I'd vote for 24h hosting — instead of abandoning the game we can finish it in a quick step and the story would be completed (:
I don't know about stats but you should know that even one of the single armies of TC attacking me is twice the size you mentioned for all TC armies. And my scouts report many huge TC armies on the move.
As for raiding, I have raided TC very hard with anything between 6-10 Tartarians, Rudras and Kinara SCs -- and have ended up losing all my raiders. If its not frozen heart spam, then its the odd huge army with buffs, or a line of life drainers, but in the end something does them.

I'd be much happier if we were *all* fighting TC and bringing him down. Then the game would make sense and be open but as it is I find it pointless. That said, I could give it a few more turns (though I don't think it would change much). I think you would reach the same conclusion in a few turns, but I guess we could wait some more and see how things turn out.

I've got to say that at some point it seems ridiculous to me fight an "adventure" scripted monster AI in an MP game. In SP it would have been fun but in MP, under these conditions???- It more or less stinks.
