family vs family, the rematch

[Zooko]

Maybe I should have hired flying troops to keep the devils and fiends away from my Seraphs for a few turns, instead of hoping to build Staves of Storms. But by the end-game there, I had little gold income after upkeep. Hm.

Another thing is that perhaps Caelum should have studied Evocation before Conjuration. It was great fun having the Elementals, but the Lightning Bolts could have started flying earlier and helped Caelum expand wider.

In general, both Ctis and Caelum expanded too slowly due to holding back from attacking independents when they should've attacked, and due to attacking independents when they shouldn't have. ;-) (The latter error was more common when I was the military secretary of Caelum.)

Neither of us ever properly scouted Vanheim, so I don't know how many provinces he controlled before invading Ctis.
