Calahan:

I don't think you are right on that. Boosters count for globals bonus. Of course I'd test it before casting and I'd empower if needed. I don't want to end liek that Abductor I wished for - there is bug that he comes in 2nd form, which results in diseased and pathless SC after GoRing, huh.

You got so many pearls probably because I was spamming a lot to make a blow to Abysia that turn. Like gettind demiliches, lots of remote attacks, etc.

When it comes to that attack on Gath - I was also thinking about attacking your Ermor. Simple because it was easier and closer target. But I thought that Gath and Bogarus are stronger than they were and eliminating them why they are somehow distracted with you may be a better idea. I didn't consider attacking you later much. I rather expected you to jsut fight TNN if Abysia attacks Machaka. And I didn't expect to see Arco die so fast to Abysia, so it also left me with no time to prepare against Aby or do anything else.

Valerius:

Yeah, I am a bit addicted to diplomacy, got it from playing other games earlier. I think I am better in diplomacy than in actual fighting [it got really better recently, especially with RAND, but still doing some unnecessary mistakes].

I am not totally sure that Armageddons were worth it... Abysia did not have the big blood economy I was afraid of. But well, looking now it helped a bit probably.

I am just happy there are no more clams in 1.6. Sure, some nations still needs some boosts, but game should be better and more pleasant.
