Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
I feel like this Agarthian kin-breaker. I concede this game, I have no chance against you

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
We're done? Nice diplo work, earcaraxe. Once Ermor decided to back out of attacking you and then actually ended up attacking me this was inevitable. I have to admit I can't see any logic to the third ranking nation helping the first take out the second, especially given the first was the only blood nation in the game and leading in gem income as well, but maybe Ossa only saw himself in a kingmaker position and not having a chance to win. You get out of diplo what you put into it and since my contact was basically limited to signing a NAP and asking dozens of turns later if he wanted to join in attacking you, well, I can't complain about how things turned out.

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
thanks!
i wonder about ur strategic ideas. shinuyama obviously went for breeding out a world-record number of zmeys, and tought me a lot about hunting them.
Ossa, did u plan to shoot for tarts from the beginning? What was ur experience with the rainbow minor bless u used?
Valerius, how did ur light bless worked?
my strategy was one i wanted to try out for a long time with abysia: taking an awake sage research zmeys in about 16 turns, then send them out so early when very few counters could be against them. it worked well in our war versus pythium and first versus mictlan, but then the mictlan ai killed all of them... :S (mostly mictlipoctli with skeleton spamming)

Re: Game of Dorian, military maneuvers happening
Valerius, I immideately attacked you both. I just happended to have more troops on your border than on his.
And no, I had no plan what to do with Ermor beforehand - I just happened to shoot for tarts as I often just plan my pretender to forge the chalice.

IMO your best option was to use your leverage with me (I needed your help) to extract terms that would be favorable to you after Aby was defeated. Alternatively, you could have worked with Aby to kill me and then faced him (but I think your chances would have been very poor if you went that route). Crippling me and then attacking Aby to start a free-for-all was pointless, did nothing to help your chances of winning, and pretty much guaranteed the leading nation would win - which is exactly what happened.
On the plus side, it did get me out of some painful micromanagement.

This game reinforced my opinion that a light bless and scales is a stronger approach with Eriu than a full E9 bless. The way I see it a stronger bless lets you save on gems, stronger scales give you more mages. Since I been focusing more on Evo. magic recently I wanted to give a scales approach a try and found it was very effective. Until things went downhill at the end of the game I never reached the point where upkeep was so high I could barely recruit mages. But even though I think a scales approach is stronger I find an E9 bless to be more fun because it helps with thugging, which is my favorite part of the game.
