Default Re: YARG - Yet Another RAND Game [Isokron's Midgard wins!]

I was Mictlan. This was one of my first games, and my first non-cbm one. I went with a pretty traditional bless and expansion went decently but then Gath attacked. My troops did well against Gath line troops, but he started deploying Gadol SCs that were very hard to kill. I tried to blitz blood research to get some Anti-SC spells but by the time I researched enough Gath already had me on the ropes. My slave income never really got started so I was low on slaves and B3 mages to make use of Life for Life and other blood combat spells. Then Patala invaded and my jag armies were gone and my Anti-SC counters were useless against him. The end was quite predictable.

I started this game very green and feel like I learned a lot, particularly a high respect for SCs with an earth bless. I would be interested in YARG 2, where I can hopefully avoid 25 turns of sitting in my cap....
