War is Hell - Ended. johnarryn wins as EA Ulm.

[Micah]

To win the game, or to you right now? Of course I'm a bigger problem for you at the moment, since I'm attacking you, but Ulm's a much more credible threat to win the game at this point, he's got a ridiculous amount of territory.

[GameExtremist]

Mainly because I had a ridiculous amount of territory...and didn't defend it very well : (.

Btw when's the next turn? It's been a few days?

[Micah]

No, he was big before he killed you, but that certainly didn't help.

Waiting on him to host from what I'm aware of, he said I was the last file in and I sent it to him 12 hours ago.

Yeah...All my armies were down south fighting Sauromatia, was a bit of a see-saw affair. I had nothing up north besides a score of sauromancers all researching towards Tartarian gate - I was busy empowering one sauromancer to be able cast well. Oh well

One thing I did notice about C'tis (my first time playing them) is that their troops are vulnarable to massed missiles as Sauromatia and Ulm can both employ particularly Ulm who's fire arrows would have devastated my armies if they had of faced them.

Actually, despite my rather vast territory it is all I can do to contain Micah. Why? Well, he's playing Niefelheim, first of all... ready-made SC's who can cast Soul Vortex are handy. Ulm is notorious for being bad late game, which is something im noticing... further, Micah got to construction 8 a few turns before me and grabbed most of the important items, such as the chalice, aegis and sword of auregelmer.

Add having access to blood magic (very good late game) into the mix, and the fact that he has attacked Ermor, Marverni and Oceania while fighting me and still hasnt lost anything important, and i think its clear that Micah is most certainly the larger threat.

I would also note that he would have two globals up had I not replaced one and the other one been dispelled.

So forgive me if I don't shed a tear for Niefelheim, or consider them the "underdog."
Thats actually a good joke =)

[johnarryn]

That being said, it is likely that either Niefelheim or I will win... but I would say that you have a better chance defeating my hordes of decent troops than hordes of Niefel Jarls.

I will be hosting this evening... didn't have time last night due to being very busy.
