Council of the Gods

Hi!

A few turns ago I felt like victory by conquest of 4 capitals was close; but this turn proved me wrong and I feel like the way to this game's conclusion is still very long, either for me or for my contenders.

We could go on, but I think we had a lot of fun already and the turns become so MM-heavy that it brings down a bit of the fun involved. To say it directly, I would rather spend these many hours playing mid-game phases.

So I suggest giving up our monotheist ambitions and form a polytheist pantheon with the Pretenders of Ermor, Pangea and Pythium ascended to Godhood. We could divide the world and its plans on the following terms:
- Underworld plan for Ermor's Pretender, with dominion on everything after-life, including cavern and magma- related domains to take into account the conquests of Abysia and Agartha's capitals;
- Terrestrial plan for Pangea's Pretender, with dominion over nature, life forces, everything green and breathing;
- Arcane plan for Pythium's Pretender, with dominion over the sky, the stars and everything celestial - this is a hard sacrifice for Mors Nihil Est but that's OK.

Surely Bandar Log's Pretender deserves a prize for its ability to survive and defend its capitals that long. I suggest denying God status. But as long as they acknowledge the main godly trio, we could grant them a lone mystical mountain peak turned into a holy pilgrimage place for the Oracle, in the middle of a refuge for the few surviving monkey folks.

Pretenders of Pangea, Pythium and Bandar Log, what do you say? Do you wish to create this Council of the Gods?
