Re: Celebrities MA game started
You're quite right that tussling with you was a big mistake, however, I think you mis-interpret my strategy:
I realized that abysia would be a big threat to me and was frankly worried that you would invade my lands sooner or later. So I tried to aggressively raid your territory. (My neighbors were also powerful, but I raided them too) But a rush? Nope, didn't even try to get next to your cap. These multiple "invasions" that you speak of were really just on the outskirts of your lands. When you "beat back" those invasions was mainly because of my stupidity; the first time I forgot that all your armies have mapmove2 in MA! But surely I had no intention of going toe-to-toe with your mage-support.
Losing a bunch of my tigers to your fireballs early hurt, but the real shame is my 5 stales, which is what I think crippled me, sorry for that everyone.
But I don't know how this caused your downfall, from what I saw of those battles with Agartha, another 20 mage turns wouldn't have made the difference. Sure, he might have picked another target based on the scales, but why? Abysia is a good rush-target for Agartha once early-game is over...
But then again, this is only my third no-diplo game, so maybe I don't understand the intricacies of communicating with one's armies and position yet.
Good show earcaraxe! Thanks for setting this game up and for the feedback.
