MP game - "Pantheons" Started

[Pickles]

That game is a newby game Panther so 10 game vets should be winning regardless of race. (Of course I fantastically misjudged Ermor's spamming power never mind)

I can never work out what the effect of high research is so I would not have figured those settings as anti Caelum - just pro blood.

I do think it looks like a very strong nation but in normal MP games this is sort of balanced by the fact everyone can jump on you, which is not the case in a team game. Of course it is not a satifactory balance method if everyone has to jump on caelum first off or it dominates but I do not think it is that bad.

I never thought of that before, but you are probably right about the pro-blood thing. Except for a minor diVersion or two to other paths, Mictlan can focus heavily in a single school, i.e., blood magic.

Well, it seemed anti-Caelum to me in my single player tests, for I was very very slow doing everything. But obviously, so was everyone else!

Caelum only needs Evo-2 to start rolling over indies. On top of that the easiest indy for them are knights and heavey cavalry in those reach provinces. Those Caelum armies become virtually unstoppable, and it takes a lot of time in very difficult research to research to counters. And after that the same thing happens with False Horrors at Alt-6.

One of our players can't make turns for a few days. He has made password available though. What shall we do?
