Corwin, you lost another tart (somehow he again was lacking LR) and took the cap. My Sea King performance surprised me too as I said.
Other than that, in general, perhaps the better strategy for me was to take more defensive approach and try to deal with your raiders first without raiding as much myself. With Vans invisible for your scouts all over the place, it might've been harder for you to take all my lands so fast. And with Van thugs support I had better chances in big battles.
Lingchih, I tried to fight with Pythium while there was at least some reason in it. Now I absolutely cannot do anything there, so prepare yourself.
BTW the original plan was to gateway everythin to cap from the captured castle to make final stand there. However I somehow messed with forging so there was no crystal coin available.
