By turn 20 or so in this game, it was obvious to me that I don't have the slightest idea how to play TC with all its mages having so many schools but too low of levels.

Yeah base TC is difficult to play.

Your Celestial Masters could use falling frost, but this spell is not as good as air or fire battlemagic in most cases.

Summonwise your Mages can't do anything decent too.

Only forging possibilities are above average.

I don't remember your god but something like f9d4 as pretender should work quite well. With this bless your sacreds become quite strong and in midgame you can then summon banelords and equip them easily with standard gears forged by your mages.

But Tien Chi or Pan CW are never as potent as e.g. Base Pangenea, Man or Vanheim with our Game-Settings.

Im inclined to think Pan CW sucks pretty bad no matter what the settings are...

For blitzes it is half decent.
I agree of course that Pan cw is one of the worst nations together with Tien Chi and Ulm and Caelum RotR.

It could be very fun from a role-playing point of view (such as in Yarnspinners).

Hello all,

Is Boron (Pangaea) still missing?

I am at war with him and it is bit hard to know what to do just now.
Last turn there was no problem - I wasn't attacking him anyways. But to continue I think I need to know the situation. I don't want to fight against someone not taking turns.

Thanks Turms. I did my last turn.
I did the turn before too but i was a bit busy and unfortunately sent the .trn-file instead of the .2h-file.
Since i am a bit busy atm i only check my email every 2 days, the host shedule. So i read Oversways email too late too. Sorry for the delay, now everything should be fine again though . So hf slaughtering the innocent pangenean wood creatures .

I have become AI, so feel free to annex the wastelands of T'ien Ch'i at your leisure.

At least waste provinces have a higher probablilty of sites (supposedly just like swamps), and I have searched them a bunch such that I have massive gem income. Three of them even have a higher gem income than my capitol. So the provinces are not entirely worthless.

Unfortunately, I made my pretender to maximize gold income on the rich world, and that failed from starting in the wastes. Plus, I am obviously not very good with TC, which seems a very difficult nation to master. Not taking a magic scale was a huge mistake for sure.

Good luck to all players while I am out on vacation for the next couple of weeks.
