The Early Days. Game running.

Well! It would seem that 2/3 of the vast, yet incomprehensibly poor nation of tir na nog is under demonic monkey control. I was preparing for war with you anyway since I'm probably closest materially to being your "competitor", but I guess you forced my hand. Let the scripting nightmares begin!

To the rest of the world: I have no idea whether I can defeat the juggernaut that is lanka. If, in the next two or three turns lanka has not suffered major defeats on the field, I will pretty much be toast and lanka will be well on the way to winning the game.

Let me rephrase that. If, within 3 turns, I do not have most of my territory back under my control, lanka WIlL WIN the game unless all of you IMMEDIATELY join together and smash him before he conquers me (much like most of the world is doing to ulm right now). This is not a cry for help, this is a heads up. So pay close attention to the next few turns and be ready to show lanka that you're not ready to throw in the towel just yet.

This has been a public service announcement. And remember, the only good demon monkeys are dead demon monkeys.

Lanka agrees completely, that's why our armies only contains (un)dead monkeys and demons. Now if we only could do the same with our PD.

Upon further review, lanka is actually very close to meeting the game's victory conditions. If I lose both my capitols to him, he will be only one capitol away from winning the game. He's a lot closer to winning than even I thought. Since he now has two very large armies sitting outside my capitol and I did basically no real damage to him this turn (except maybe to his blood economy...), the chances of me fighting him back are becoming vanishingly small.

It looks like this game is nearly over.
