Charon: Could you get a temporary sub to keep your turns going? That way, you wouldn't fall behind quite as much.

I'm bored. Has anyone had a national hero show up yet? I have not.

I've gotten that big blue blob guy Auluudh, but then again I am playing with foolish Luck/Chaos scales.

This game has proven very educational so far on the merits of high morale troops. I'm starting to think that I'd be better off without buying PD or slave troops at all, just because their 8 morale causes me to rout as soon as somebody trips and gets an owie.

In other news, Ermor's gem income has really shot up during the past few turns! If I was a militant god I'd go investigate for some of these acashic-searched uber provinces!

But I value our peace too highly!

Most of my C'tis troops have morale of 9! Of course I have access to high priests and lizard kings for sermon of courage.

Ermor makes me nervous. They are the only Western Alliance nation that borders the mountain pass, and their forces along the border grow every turn.

Which reminds me, I have seen some of your battles with Ulm, and I thought I saw an initiate of the deep or something like that in one of your armies but he didn't have commander status! Was I seeing things? Oh, and since C'tis has good relations with both you and Ulm, we have no intention to interfere with your war.

Aboleths start with enslave mind and, against independents, Fire Rear is a pretty effective order with that attack. Hence the enslaved, non-commander Initiates of the Deep.

I can assure you guys that Ermor is a peaceful nation. We have always looked upon R'lyeh as our wet friends and C'tis as our friendly but mysterious neighbour.

I did had some luck with site searching (and capturing Abysias capital earns me 5 more fire gems)

but with national heroes I am not as lucky... haven't got any national hero so far.

C'tis didn't realize that sending assassins into a neighbor's lands was considered friendly.
