No, he was big before he killed you, but that certainly didn't help.

Waiting on him to host from what I'm aware of, he said I was the last file in and I sent it to him 12 hours ago.

Yeah...All my armies were down south fighting Sauromatia, was a bit of a see-saw affair. I had nothing up north besides a score of sauromancers all researching towards Tartarian gate - I was busy empowering one sauromancer to be able cast well. Oh well

One thing I did notice about C'tis (my first time playing them) is that their troops are vulnarable to massed missiles as Sauromatia and Ulm can both employ particularly Ulm who's fire arrows would have devastated my armies if they had of faced them.

Actually, despite my rather vast territory it is all I can do to contain Micah. Why? Well, he's playing Niefelheim, first of all... ready-made SC's who can cast Soul Vortex are handy. Ulm is notorious for being bad late game, which is something im noticing... further, Micah got to construction 8 a few turns before me and grabbed most of the important items, such as the chalice, aegis and sword of auregelmer.

Add having access to blood magic (very good late game) into the mix, and the fact that he has attacked Ermor, Marverni and Oceania while fighting me and still hasnt lost anything important, and i think its clear that Micah is most certainly the larger threat.

I would also note that he would have two globals up had I not replaced one and the other one been dispelled.

So forgive me if I don't shed a tear for Niefelheim, or consider them the "underdog."
Thats actually a good joke =)

That being said, it is likely that either Niefelheim or I will win... but I would say that you have a better chance defeating my hordes of decent troops than hordes of Niefel Jarls.

I will be hosting this evening... didn't have time last night due to being very busy.

Hey! Mictlan will win this war! Our holy toads are numerous and we already reached the secrets of the rings with which you can burn the hearts of the sacrificed in the bowls of fire with your bare hands. We call them "ring of fire". So beware!

Ah, it's good to know that Ulm will stoop to lying in an attempt to secure aid. I'd hardly say he's having trouble containing me when his armies are taking province after province of mine. While I have been holding my own fighting my 4 front war I also haven't made much headway, while Ulm continues to expand.

I'm not sure what his point about my dispelled globals is, either. The fact that they got dispelled means I'm worse off than if I hadn't cast them.
