yah. i could continue, but i have no great interest. its just warfare micromanagement at the moment for me. Sorry i was a bit overloaded for a couple weeks there.
Anyways, it was originally just a blitz
I think we got our money's worth out of it.
And the "newbies" did well - jeffr you expanded well and put up a good fight, though my endless hordes of flags would probably soon bring you down, esp. w/ tartarians now on their way, and my air queens. and Anatoli did a textbook ermorian strat which was very successful, and then managed to switch over to a gem based underwater/raiding defense which has kept him as a real force. Surignon also was doing well, though since i wasn't fighting him i have less knowledge of his strats and tactics.
