Boron and I have wondered where he is too. He hasnt posted anywhere on the forums so I hope nothing bad has happened to him in real life.

My guess is that he is tired of Dominions. I admit that I am too, having been far too busy lately. I have staled in every game over the weekend that I am currently participating in right now. The only reason I have not staled in Slug Fest is because the game has crashed.

Grim has not been doing much in Slug Fest anyway for weeks now, just letting me overrun his PD without any resistance.

I think the game is dead now .

How many clams etc. did you have Panther ?
I had about 250 clams and 200 fetishes , now i was forging about 20-25 new clams and 5-7 fetishes every turn .
I was doing since about 10 turns 5 tartarians per turn also and planning to increase it now to 7-8 .

I had everything researched expect thaumaturgy and blood which i would have started now .
As soon as i would have gotten Astral Tartarians i would have made them Wishcasters and wished for blood .
In about 10-15 turns i would have tried to eliminate you if you wouldn't have achieved victory conditions by then already .

I also got 1 AQ and i guess that a 2nd would have been around unsummoned also . I would have probably wished 1 further AQ every turn also or Ettin mandragoras instead .

For defense i planned on casting a strong 500+ nature gem haunted forest + buy 125 pd everywhere .
My first wish would have been the alchemist pretender . I also owned the alchemist stone so i would have gotten 45 gold per firegem and with 200 fire gems converted each turn i would have been able to do my 125 pd defence and i would have used 1 less useful Tartarian with a staff of storms as additional patroller in my more important provinces also .

I was looking really forward to this endgame because i was curious if you would maybe achieve victory conditions before i started to attack you and if my battleplans which i had for my attacks would have been successful or if you would have been able to counter them .

I was very surprised that if i wouldn't have used 70 mages for monthly forging + summoning i could have probably researched everything at turn 65 already despite very hard research and that Machaka was not bad with hoarding at all .
I found 2 sage , 1 loremaster province , 1 hydromancer province and a jade sorceress province though . And the 30% enchantment bonus province which was very handy for my GoH + dispelling .
