Default Re: Standards - MA Game (running)

Thank god, I was just going to brooch the subject again myself.

With Bwaha staling (understandable, it happens), it was looking more like Ashdod would have to go AI. Problem is, I'm already being run in circles by 2 AIs down in the south (Bandar Log decided they wanted to play, even while getting crushed by Vanheim).

This was an incredibly fun game while it lasted, and the real shame here is that we did not get the chance to have a proper showdown, but I would be willing to say I think the game lost its soul when Calahan disappeared, but sort of just refused to die.

I didn't have as many top end tricks as you, AoE, as I was hampered by HORRIBLE gem income in my starting lands (I had 5 Air, 6 Water, and 5 Astral I believe, before attacking Abysia), but I was stressing versatility, and was soon to summon all 3 of the Fire Kings, as well as the Air Queens now that I had the Gale Gate up. Of course, your Tarts probably had full immunities, but the Queens would just raid, which is what most of my armies would do. It would be bloody and exciting, if the game was still wanting to be played. Darn, now I have to find another game to play in as Caelum, I learned some interesting tactics in this game, and I'd really like to chalk up a win before attempting a new guide for them.
