Manatee - EA newbie game (started)

Yeah, really disappointing.

Especially that the battle could really go the way shown in a replay. My Jarl had a small advantage in stats. Your Rudras had very high fatigue from buffs.
Could you tell me if the scripting in replay was as designed by yourself, or if you scripted the Siddha to retreat?
If it is too much of your tactics I don't mind if you want to keep it for yourself, of course.

I didn't script the Siddha to retreat and I really don't know why he flew.

Thanks.

Btw, Welcome to my new conquered land of lizards. Enjoy your stay. And watch your back.

Damn! I shouldn't send the turn file in the last moment anymore. One moment too late this time.

My lack of end-game planning is disturbing. Most of my turns now consist of "Okay, move these guys there, move those guys here, maybe summon some units, forge some stuff, end turn!"

All the while hoping that Sauromatia or Kailasa or R'lyeh or something is attacking me.

PS dear R'lyeh, quit mindhunting me.

Hehe the end game is easy at this point...send everything at Kailasa, or we will lose.

Thanks for the compliment but I don't really think there's a big difference in power between you, ulm, abysia, the water nations or me.

I dont oppose on ending the game. I dont know who should win tough. I guess Kailasa and his nexus would be the most likely winner. Still if we continue the game there are lots of things that can happen, and I am as willing to continue as to quit. It depends on what you others think.

As far as I'm concerned, Kailasa has won this one. I have considered it over for a year or so now and the recent abysmal performance of Sauromantia against the Kailasa invasion drove a bunch more nails in the coffin.

(For anyone who doesn't know the situation, Kailasa SC's have been grabbing provinces without difficulty, Sauromantia has one big army in the area being seiged, I'm pretty sure the seiging army can communion up to casting master enslave.)

The only reason I'm still in it at all is to see how things end up in the ocean, otherwise I would have gone AI by now.

I wouldn't mind it either way, it's been five months and I feel like I've learned enough from this game, ya know?

Although I'm kinda surprised you're giving up early, can't Sauromatia cast spells like disintegrate or just spam those poison archers whose poison will always apply on armor hits? (I read that in a thread somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it up.)
