Definitely a great game, I was in it at the beginning (as Pan), and the end (as a replacement for Meglobob as Sauro). As Pan I fell quickly to Ulm, and it really irked as I had some bad luck in my first few turns (bad strategy, failed to take provinces 2 or 3 times in a row). So when a replacement was needed I figured I'd check it out. Decent position, but I'd never played Sauro before, so I was learning a lot. And damn, Fomoria was a pain to beat, I didn't know which tactics would work best. And I could tell from the graphs he was about to win, so I thought he would go for the Caleum capital. Instead he went for Lanka, and I wasn't prepared for that, and knew it was over. I tried to throw a last ditch strike against Lanka, but the seers and Giant Kings ruled the battle. Great game!!
I definitely can't wait for the next RAND game, hopefully it will start as late as June, only because I will be heading to South Africa for my brother's wedding at the end of May. Never been there (should be fun) and won't have a computer with me. Oh well, if it starts while I'm gone I'll be available as a sub when I get back. Unless of course the game starts now (hehehe). Great game everybody.
