Ha, they are the ones that let you guys take over the world and do naught in respect.

And yes, you're doing a fine job of clearing the opposition and if you cont. to the end you will have fully earned the victory.

It's a bit strange to hear this about the nation of T'ien Ch'i who is being pressed by many people at once since the early game. Remember that we, as well as our Agarthan allies, attacked no one while you keep ganging on us.

When I saw Agartha and Tien Chi in one team, my very first thought was 'gotta gank them or they will become unstoppable'. Its not 'LA Rlyeh and LA Ermor', but also bad enough, especially compared to other teams.
So if anything, there was not enough ganking - and now we are nearing the inevitable end.

Here and there, there were nations that worked together against you. That is correct. However a concentrated effort wasn't done yet. Some nations who have attacked you in the past have reached a truce or else just stopped. Your ability to withstand this is of course admirable, but you have yet to face a concentrated effort by all the nations.

I estimate that the turning point in which even such an effort would be futile is close. In short IMHO you're very close to victory, just hang on a few more turns.

I just wonder why you didn't say this before the teams were assigned to players and even after that? Why are you saying it now? And also I'm interested if you would say the same now if we we're playing, for example, as Man\C'tis or Pythium\Ulm...

Don't bother yourself with answers, I already know them.

You knew how I feel about Caelum/Bandar Log team even before you assigned it to us, right? Did it change anything? I think not.
I can also copy-paste my words about Agartha/Tien Chi from my ICQ logs if you wish, and even translate them into English. Will it change anything?
Would telling you how I felt about Agartha/Tien Chi, Marignon/Machaka, Bandar Log/Caelum or Man/Ctis change anything? I think not.
I know your position, 'there are no weak and strong nations, skill is everything'.
Kek.

And if you really want to know my opinion, CTis/Man setup is weakish and Pythium/Ulm is quite interesting (actually, I was thinking of that before I knew you are going to pre-roll everything), but not as strong as Agartha/Tien Chi.

Why not? Nation pairs were open to discussion and I made some changes to them when I saw some arguments in the thread. I don't remember you telling that Agartha/TC are strong at least before(important) team assignment. I may be wrong but I doubt I am.

Not exactly. There are weak and strong nations but skill usually decides the most.

I keep thinking that both MA Agartha and TC are at best average nations and would never play any of them if I had an option.

I didnt say anything at all because I missed the assignments phase. But you can check our community forum, where I mentioned Agartha as one of the potential MA superpowers, having seen it in several games. Tien Chi is also very solid, even you will have to admit it, but its these nations combined that makes such team setup that strong. They have everything, and more.

Of course you keep thinking that its skill made you shine so brightly - everyone would.
