Also mostly you fell due to diplomacy, I'm afraid to say.

Heh heh, I almost forgot about that, but I do recall now. I was sorely pressed for time in RL and had entered too many games during the winter. I was very sorry I had entered that particular game (especially after I realized that Machaka is hopeless on that map) and was wanting to get out of it. So, because I hate to quit games, I instead opted for the time-honored 'elimination strategy' and declared war on the entire world. I even attacked the two AI nations next to me to get them to invade also.

It was definitely a blast fighing everybody at once, especially after Cohen gave me nearly 1000 gems right before he died. I surprised the heck out of Ulm with my mass summoning when he thought me mostly dead and gone. The only thing I regreted was that I killed only 80 or so Abysian devils before I died.

You did have a very nice victory in that game, Jurri, using the (heavily nerfed) Soul Contract strategy. I was indeed impressed with the power of the soul contracts after seeing it used against me.
