Destroyer of Worlds (d9a4b2, I think). I'm not sold on him as SC, so I thought he could use ranged attacks to suppot initial expansion, then jumpstart a blood economy, and once that was up and running, with precision and penetration boosters, he could support a real army. He was cursed by a lizard shaman on turn 3, and chopped up by barbarians on turn 4, with afflictions piling up ridiculously quickly.
The vampire count you see near my territory did not affect me. Patala gets elephants, and I should have used them for expansion. I agree I should have sought peace, but I wasn't getting into blood with him dead, and my mages are also my priests, so by calling god, I was lagging in research. By turn 6 my situation was pretty hopeless. Bad luck, and worse decisions by me, and no good expansion routes.
See you next time
