Tartanians

[Tuidjy]

I love the idea of Tartarians becoming unleashed. I do not consider myself a
newbie by any means, but I do not remember playing a game that went past turn 50
and did not end as a Tartarian fest. I'm not saying that Tartarians are the
ultimate weapon, because they are tons of ways of picking them off. But they
are a better deal that anything else, and a Hell of a lot more durable.

I have fielded an army with 15 Tartarian casters, and 20-30 Tartarian meat
shields. Since that game, I tried avoiding large games, but I inherited one
from my uncle. At least two players in that game have Tartarians that I
have seen. This turn I'll become the third, although I'll have to rely on
the non-senile ones. At least I will have plenty of meat shields. And yeah,
I am saying this publicly, and summoning them in a province that borders all
but one of the remaining players because I do not want to be seen as defenseless.

If it were up to me, I would start Tartarians with a 0-100% insanity, I would
give them a 1% increase 50% of the time, and I would have a 10% chance of
going indy every turn they are insane. I would do something similar with
Doom Horrors, and even with Demons and Elemental Royalties. Not that it is
needed, but I would like to see more mages and troops as opposed to
supercombatants.
