MP: Pyrothere - LA slowpace - Game on!

[Caerun]

Well, with my skill levels being what they are, I'm not seeing any conclusion to the situation that results in anything short of complete loss.

I've got a tenuous hold on a few provinces, a good third of which spent the past 50 turns under Ermor dominion, I'm looking at R'lyeh joining Man in the invasion process with an army that I might be able to annoy in the same way a speed bump annoys a 10-ton truck.

Once my capital falls, I'm very limited in my choices of mages and while I do have a decent number of Angakoks left, my scattered research means I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to use them. I've got taxes up to 200 on everywhere and yet I'm not even able to make upkeep, let alone recruit.

Simple fact is I've played myself into a corner. Now, I recognize I could indeed mount a last-ditch defense here and be irritating and perhaps even hurt the incoming Mannish and squidface armies, but I'm afraid I've got no fight left in me.

Make of that what you will.
