Sending your Eternal-Pyre casting Arch-devil in combat to the front lines is not a really great idea either, but since you don't really need those gems anyway, it won't make a big difference.
Ouch, thanks for reminding me of this one - that's the same thing I was forgetting about the GoH. Shows I just don't have any experience with Globals, doesn't it?

So chalk up your failed GoH as a nice learning experience, which is pretty much what the rest of this game is.
Thanks, it's (been) definitely teaching me quite a few things. To be honest, you noticed that I was playing badly the last few turns, it was just that I've been able to apply enough brute force to get through in spite of that.

Even if Man hadn't allied with you against me, I still don't think I could have won 1 on 1, since half my lands have no people living in them.
I had been wondering why you didn't try to ally with Man - I had been fearing that all the time, telling him that I would be the major threat yaddayadda. Of course, casting BoT wouldn't be helping to convince him that you're the good guy

Well, since you've shown yourself to be able to attack with impunity a province bordering my cap, and still have massive numbers of devils all over your lands, you've pretty much got this one in the bag.
I will believe you if you say that, since I don't know what your armies can do - I haven't met your thugs in a fight right now & can't predict how they would fare against my devils. Or the other forces coming to support them.

In the battle in Nifel this turn, where three of your horrors attacked my devilish forces - there were three horrors rushing in. Were these just 3x Send Lesser Horrors, or how was that achieved?

Other than that - if the game is over from your experience, I don't want to push you into playing on longer than you enjoy it. I know that I've got plenty of stuff left to learn, but I can understand as well if you want to focus on other games.
In worst case, I'd ask you for the files so I could play the game vs. the AI at home, although that one isn't playing nearly as clever as you are, of course.

That BoT was a master piece to the right time, though. It's almost too easy to cast...?
