this is definitely true - perhaps because he lost a bunch of mammoths to Abysia early on.

But I think you're right about attacking when Caelum was going down.

Graeme, you really would have attacked me without me attacking you, just because Mictlan attacked Pangaea? This is surprising to me - even if you're pretty certain people are allied, it's still something of a step to attack unprovoked.

I should point out the one good thing gained by waiting: an ally in Machaka. This wouldn't have come without us beating up on Arco together.

It was our battle plan to keep you from continuing to gain strength while Pan and Mictlan battled each other.

Heh forgot about this thread... Anyway, I was R'yleh. My clam hoarding was very inefficent as I do not have the patience for it, and it was something I had learned on my own vs. the AI which is kinda forgiving in those matters. Regardless, I was getting right around 400 astral pearls a turn (that includes the Arcane Nexus.) I really did not know which side to join in the battle. Pangaea and I had signed a NA pact right in the begining, then Abysia invited me to attack C'tis so I liked them. But Mictlan and I had done some trades, and then Man pressed the "which side will you take" issue which I gave a non-answer to. So, I was either going to do nothing but cast the fun spells I had never cast before, or attack Ulm, who I had not heard a word from.
