LDiCesare you sneaky bastard!!!
Nah, I wouldn't have cast AN, that would draw too much attention, I'd just keep wishing for gems as I did since turn 40. I had a pretty little gem income, blood stones helped too.
As for the Armageddons, every action creates a reaction, therefor once the four of you attacked me you signed up for Armageddon and Astral Corruption.
