Default Re: Asia Twist - Wraithlord Wins!

christ, such manifest dissimulation to top it all off wraithlord.

for the record, what Wraithlord claims as Aristander's "heroic defense" of his VP, or "knowing that R'lyehs army is tied up protecting his last VP" - as was known to all in the area, I had one shambler sieging that VP. Rlyeh had a huge teleporting army who could easily have defended his cap or his other VP. But, according to WL, it was somehow necessary for him to use his whole army to ward off my solitary shambler.

This end-game was rigged, and a set-up, and I have never seen the like in all my years of playing Dominions. Now, some may feel that intentionally throwing a game in this situation is fine. Others may not.

The turn files are available from Pasha for anyone who would like to see what actually went down.

When I was first concerned that this is what was happening, I expressed my unease to Pasha. He assured me that Wraithlord was a gentleman. I can't give his motivations for saying that in response to my worries; perhaps they were completely unrelated.
