So, in summary, I only partly agree with Xox. The victory conditions weren't perfect, although I think the flaw is with the nature and geography of the VPs rather than the number of them. However, the actions of the players are really what made this possible. No one defended their VP provinces, and one of the game's economically and magically strongest nations was left in peace to build a force capable of launching this attack.

An accurate assessment. Tho, personally I disagree with Xox: 40% of the VPs was more than sufficient for a victory condition based on the assumption of a traditional land-war. As sheap has pointed out, my victory was only possible because the 3vp and 2vp provinces - the most important provinces on
the entire map - were left basically undefended against a seriously determined raid. If they were castled, I would have been forced to fight a traditional war and 40% of the VPs would have been quite enough. I completely understand why those provinces were uncastled tho. Even in my own empire, only one of my four VP provinces was castled - it just wasnt economically or militarily feasible to put castles on them all.
