I was playing a 4-player-blitz (my second that day).

First thing I did when I saw where quantum mechanic were, was to attack him. I thought I could get fast to his capitol but he was really prepared to repel me. So It became a bloody war, specially when his pretender showed up. (I was massing a really big amount of crappy units there).

Then, in between turns i thought "they are taking too long to make their turns, Im going to rest for 5 minutes and then continue playing".
But when I woke up it was about 9 am in the morning. They sure must have wait for long for me to play.

Mental note: if you are too tired don´t play a blitz.

Ah, so that's what happened.

My nastiest surprise in Dom3: Ghost King casting few buffs including stoneskin.

My nastiest surprise was maybe when, in an early game, I flew my fully equipped, very powerful master lich into a province that had negative Dom, without fully understanding the way the game works. Needless to say, I lost him and all his equipment. I also lost a couple of nations from lack of Dom, before I figured out why, and I discovered that water-breathers can't participate in the Arena.
