MP: Wombat - LA team game. Game on.

[Baalz]

I second the proposal to declare Caelum/Pythium the winner, though I'll keep fighting if the admiral shows up and others still want to.

I'll third the proposal--as for getting our support, well I wasnt sure what to make of it when I saw Atlantis attacking the monkeys--figured it would be a given that we would all go after the birds.

Tired to seeing the long period of peace that seemed to be really benefiting caelum...and irritated after having my well of misery overwritten by Agartha, I contacted atlantis/marignon about banding together to go to war against either Caelum/Pythium who were the team with the clear lead...or against Agartha/Patala because Patala with maelstrom would be clamming like a demon which would eventually lead to lots of unique nation summons that are rather badass and Agartha with well of misery would also mean lots of national SC's and death summons of unpleasant disposition. Atlantis/Mari were up for going to war and they thought that agartha/patala would be a bigger late game threat so we went with that.

Still, you got to Patala, but never really caused any damage to me. And just stood around while Caelum/Pythium has a huge income and landmass under them? True, we might have been a formidable threat if we had gotten globals up sooner than later and Caelum had not been pretty much my ONLY neighbor. I had a small way of getting to midgård and Gath, who were again allied with caelum/pythium, and Marignon, who again was allied with atlantis, and I had water provinces around my nation, so that would've made me an easy raiding target for them.

Hence, I'll vote for Caelum/Pythium to be the winning team. It's a shame to see Caelum start staling at this point of the game, but I've been pretty much of his victory for at least those 10 turns so far. No competitors have arisen for him. Only one who could probably turtle against him easily is Atlantis. I might stand a chance for a while until major battlefield magics (Shimmering fields, flame storms etc) would start pouring in. Or a horde of sc's (single ones I could defend quite easily against) come knocking my doors. I only have something like (with a bit of forging) 50-100 mages capable of casting disintegrate and maybe 10-15 capable of casting petrify, all scattered around my little splat of land admist of Caelum.

I must agree with Baalz. Calum clearly has an upper hand. I don't like the idea of winning because of stales, myself.

[Revolution]

So far I have only heard support for declaring for Caelum/Pythium (a course that I too agree with under the circumstances) any opposition to this idea should let themselves be heard before I put an end to the game tonight. It would be nice to hear from Pythium at least...

Game Over, congrats to Seej and AdmiralZhao (wherever he is)
