Re: Apparently that Kick isn\'t so Useless afterall

There wass nothing you could really do with your army to win that. My mages routed before anything happened to Golem. If I had no elephants Golem would stop vine men as he did after elephants were dead. And all of my mages would ba alive. Ready to massacre next army.
And you joined that game with sole purpose to be at war with me, so it was obvious there will be war

Isn't that kind of the object of the game? Get over it.

Wrong. Once it was clear we'd be at war, I beelined for Conj6 specifically for Specters (stealty with S randoms) to counter the very obvious Arco-Mind-Hunt-Spam. I had a stealthy S mage in every important province & army. You fell for it.

Scary smart.

Z, Cleveland's moves have clearly benefited Pangea. If his war had damaged his nation somehow, then you might have grounds for a theory that he went to war more for metagaming reasons, but in this case, his strategy has clearly led to Pangea becoming a dominant force throughout this game. That tells me he has made wise strategic decisions, not pursued a personal vendetta. And as FW points out, we all join the game with the goal of being at war at some point...

Didn't mean to light you two up again. Just posting/sharing some After Action Report stuff. I plan on posting more when the game is done. I enjoy that.
As I've said before, after the initial shock from that pivotal turn where you realize your Pretender will not ascend...
1. Mourn
2. Take a deep
3. Make yourself a Mai Tai
4. Realize you have nothing to lose by experimenting
5. Push some new buttons with what you have left and learn, learn, learn and perhaps enjoy some small victories as the candles burn low.
Remember 61 of the 62 players in the Mega game will go through these stages on Dom3 Nation death.
On another note, I currently have absolutely no idea how DC was able to research at such an astonishing pace and still have scratch to buy all those ponies (and pay for feed). I'm hoping after the game he'll share that. I am quite impressed.
-SSJ
PS C's Spectral tactic indeed was/is very very cool. Not sure I've seen it mentioned.

Re: Apparently that Kick isn\'t so Useless afterall
DC:
I don't know exact situation, but that wasn't huge war between us. Neither of us used bigger resources against each other. So it didn't hurt Pan as much as it could, but it did.
ssj:
Peace makes huge difference. In another game I had all research complete around turn 65, all schools at lvl9. In another with difficult research I had everything researched before turn 90.
I just write what happened. I no longer play that and I did not expect to win. I have no propaganda to do. Some people try to but are rather weak at it. Well, maybe we will get something more honest when game is ended

Re: Apparently that Kick isn\'t so Useless afterall
honesty is a performative in politics; there is nothing 'more' or 'less' to it. not sure what you're hoping to get then.
