who ... will do well

Let's see...

My favourites would have to be the potential end-game powerhouses played by proven veterans:
MA Arcoscephale - Twan
LA Arcoscephale - Xietor

Nations I definitelywould rather not start next to, for obvious reasons:
EA Niefelheim - Dr. P.
EA Mictlan - Meglobob
Of these two Mictlan has the stamina to be a potential contender in end-game too. I'd be surprised if Niefelhiem can last to the end in a game this size, but Dr. P. can feel free to prove me wrong.

Other solid players with solid nations:
LA Marignon - AdmiralZhao
LA Bogarus - Jazzeppi (If he has comes through early game in a decent position)
LA Caelum - Lolomo
EA Fomoria - Tyrant
LA Pangaea - Amhazair (Hey, someone has to mention me. Not good for my ego being left out. )

And no doubt one or two of the players I don't know yet will have learned a lot in the past months and surprise the world.

Edit: Greece =/= Rome

gang on them ! (and leave ashdod alone )

[Twan]

Me ? I'm flattered, there are easily twenty players in this game as or more experienced than me.

Ok I picked a nation I know very well (ME Arco not Ermor, but with nerfs to magical economy and slow research my usual builds/strategies for it would be hard to use).

Personnally I rather fear thugs nations in this kind of game. Midgame will be very long with these settings and being able to recruit thugs for money a big advantage.

[Xietor]

Lol.

I WISH I had a powerhouse nation, but I took a nation not any of the 61 players had in their top 10: LA Arcos. So if I survive it will be due to luck in starting position or diplomacy.

Midguard is still available btw, and likely would be hard to
kill off early with the cheap skin shifters. I considered playing them....

LA Mictlan is tough, but I am not really into that much blood!

I'll trade you for MA Oceana if you like. I really like LA Arco, playing them in a duel with QM right now. Lucky, ethereal, high protection elephants seem likely to be able to do well with slow research.

[Xietor]

I do not like water races-except la ermor! muhahahhaha.

Xietor:

LA Arco should do really fine with diff research. Of course MA Arco is really more useful.

I still cannot believe no one picked LA Mictlan. I wanted to try it, but I expected like 5-10 people putting it as number 1 .

If someone will have tough it will be me. Instead of elephants I have some cave knights that cannot even trample
