Sorry for the delay, I haven't been paying much attention to Dominions.

As regards R'lyeh, I was kind of hoping we could just ignore the water provinces and turn it into a land province only game. I can certainly PM PriestyMan and ask him to set them AI but then the AI will just be annoying and launch random attacks as well as doing something stupid like leaving its capitol undefended for an easy VP. It's also not a very appealing position for a sub to take on.

Speaking of VPs, I realize I set the victory conditions for this game but I'm finding I really don't like VP games. What does everyone think about changing the game to normal victory conditions? I'm not saying this to benefit myself (the longer a game goes on and the more micro is involved, the less I'm motivated to play so I wouldn't mind getting killed off - but I won't just give up). If I'm going to get dogpiled that's fine but then finish the job instead of me getting down to 1 cap, some other nation gets 3, and then everyone shifts to attacking them. It's tedious. It would also solve the problem of R'lyeh since everyone could just grab some water provinces without any worry of an easy VP being at stake.

Of course changing the victory conditions would require all four remaining active players to agree but I thought I'd throw the idea out there.
