I've given the .map file to NT Jedi, just waiting on word back from him.

Good lord, I'm outclassed. Thankfully, this isn't a PvP game. My strategy is..uhhmmm...yeah.
1. Steal underpants. 2. uhmmm. 3. Profit.
Seriously you guys have really thought out your position well. I am waffling between an awake PoD with a 4E/4F and possibly 1 or 2 extra death. 10 Dominion. Scales are still up in the air, but I am leaning towards 03,S3,H3,G/D0,L/M0,D2.

Initial plan is rapid expansion with the PoD. Recruit lizardman elite for 2 more initial expansion parties (slow going from SP tests) then mass some chariots. Recruit Suaromancers as researchers.

Dash to Con4 for skull mentors. Begin Recruiting Shamans for research and to be skull monkeys. PoD comes back home as a forge peon. Skip the mid portion of the game.

Spam leviathan and take over the seas.

A lot of profit to be made in underpants, just ask Calvin Klein

I made an error in my thinking, I'm used to playing CBM where the Fountain of Blood gives +3 blood slaves per month for free, this doesn't happen in vanilla and it does make a difference to the speed of setting up the blood economy.

Also in a SemiRand test game, be prepared for an AI pretender decked out in good items in the early-mid game. I'm not sure what pretenders NT Jedi was planning but this can be a killer if your not prepared (or your mages spam phantasmal warriors instead of lightning. I HATE those summon phantasmal rubbish spells). While we are not playing I suggest you give the SemiRand a test run to see what it does.

Get it here.

Trust me, I'm terrible at this game. I wouldn't be surprised if I am not the first person out. Even against AI. And I've been playing pretty much since the game was released. But, I want to get better, so I hope this is a start.
