Well, it's been fun, but it's getting kind of pointless now. Caelum's been the only thing keeping me alive the last few turns and I'm so far behind in research I'm never going to catch up.

I staled this weekend because I was away longer than expected and seemed to do just as well, or as poorly, as when I actually played. So I've set Marignon AI.

Enjoy the rest of the game.

You have no idea how much damage your spies have done, both directly and indirectly. No idea.

It's good to know they were having an affect. It's hard to tell sometimes with the subtler aspects. Just the unrest and
income loss? Or is there something else I'm missing?

You'd started killing them off, though. I didn't have many left and lacked the cash/time to replace them. With my forts constantly under siege, what little I had was going to my inadequate defenses.

If unrest goes over 100, you can't recruit anything in the province.

I might as well say it... I started to patrol with a huge section of the army there, and fully half of them got wiped the next turn by Murdering Winter. I don't know if that spell affects units in the castle, but I lost a *lot* of good mages and items. If I wasn't worrying about the spies, I might have not lost so much that turn (if i understand that Murdering Winter doesn't hit units in the castle)

I don't think I got any of his provinces above 100%, though.

good game jeff.

That was a pretty fun golem you sent this turn, peacekeeper. Hellsword + monolith armor = -10 defense total

Ya, I rushed that turn in and didnt think about the consequences of him vs a sage province. Mass summonings of phantasmal warriors = bad for someone who relies on 33 protection.

Also, did you happen to notice if his stone bird ever attacked because it sure didnt seem like it did.
