Re: An excerpt form Marignon
I think I will go AI, I had extremely bad luck and it seems that I have no chance to get back from it.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
Did you take misfortune Zedor? How much?
I actually own the fewest provinces. I took strong scales and had the scale bug(: That is equivalent to have a bad event every turn of the game so far. Also all 3 of the water races are new players-so you may have time to overcome a slow start.
I am praying that I do(:
Few things are so dire that you need to go ai on turn 5. Try to stick it out if you can for a few turns and see if things get better. Of course if you took strong misfortune-things likely will not get better.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
I only just checked - my capital has no scale bonuses either, and that's prety painful.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
Heck, I just came in to commiserate that I just lost my epic hero to a really bad luck roll against some knights. Good to know others are sucking it up to.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
I think we should congratulate Atlantis, it is probably them that killed Oceania. Fast.
Xietor:
I have read some manuals for R'lyeh and other nations too. Advice was to take Order 3 and some misfortune. I have tried some misfortune in other MP games [blitz ones] after that and I see that it is the worst choice you can do. Order 3 cannot even negate misfortune 1 effects. In 2 other games I lost lab in first turn and got 4 barbarians hordes in 2 turns.
And here I added my mistake caused by lack of knowledge on water nations and indies  I will see what I can do, but Atlantis seems to be really strong. And I am weaker than on turn 1.

Re: An excerpt form Marignon
My experience has been that misfortune amplifies negative scales. So I would connect lost lab with misfortune + sloth, barbarian attacks with misfortune + turmoil. There are corresponding bad events for misfortune + death/cold. Not sure if there is for heat and drain.
But if you survive to mid game, the misfortune events are not as big a factor as they are capped at max of 4 per turn.
