thanks for the feedback!
maybe some devil summons would have been effective too, nice idea!
on domkilling: i didnt use dragons in all my forts (and im not referring here to Baal Chozron
), in half of them only salamanders and demonbreds. I decided i cant afford that much of them. in retrospect it would have been a good idea. So i was blodsaccing from the second half of the mictlan war (because i thought it was much easier to domkill him out of his fort, than kill all those defending sacreds), and the bloodsaccing got to full speed when i saw ermor's 50 behemoths, which handily flattened my sacreds. I like to make an anathemant dragon my prophet, but my first one died the first winter
So i didnt stealth-preach, because i didnt have any. Just bloodsaccing and the 8-10 idols (12 at the end).
Maybe u are right about the possible success of that alternate, not-domkilling strategy, perhaps i will try that next time in a similar situation. I chose domkilling, partly because I felt totally helpless versus ur thugs.
So u say melancholy gets past the air dome? Does it also shatter it?
I was surprised u didnt finsh machaka off earlier, some turns i thought your war would be over in a couple turns, then nothing happened, now i see why.
I think u r more likely to bid high on mercenary's than other players. i tried a couple times to lure away the astral mercs, because i wanted them out of the way (mind hunt protection, Antimagic and luck amulets for thugs), but they were quite loyal.
how did that firbolg champion be so quick to catch my scout at ur capitol?
regarding the disease at my capitol: r u saying, that if u have two scouts and one of them gets mindhunted the other can pick up some of his items?
