Yea, well, Fortu is dead. I've gone AI (only capital left, really). Jurri was nice enough to equip me for a bit, but in the end he realized he couldn't go toe-2-toe with him either, so he resulted to Mind Hunt (chicken), and after resisting many many attempts (more than humanly possible, I bet), Fortu succumbed.
It was very entertaining, that's for sure. I expected to be out a long time ago. But I guess it was fated that my first attempt and tackling another "little guy" (Pan), turned out to be a minor misstep.
I look forward to the updates on this forum, and learning when Chuck and his kingdom falls, which should be next (I'm guessing 10 turns)
. And how Pasha Mama fares. Good luck all!
