Swarm 2.5 (Ryleh wins!)

I know what you're saying about the blessed units, but, I just want to give this a try. A brutal early game brawl is what this is supposed to be. Those who survive will crawl out of the muck and start learning spells.

I don't think that blessed units are the only way to go, either. I mean, in that last game Jurri used elephants in the early game mostly. Others used an awake combat pretender. But, yeah, you pretty much have to go one of those three routes.

Will that make the game uninteresting? Hmm.. maybe. If so we'll never play these settings again. They seemed to work okay for last game (that was never finished).

Okay, fictionfan, that makes 8 confirmed players. I'd better close the game for now until I hear back from archaeolept, Cicadian, and Jeffr. If they are busy and don't want to play, then there would be another spot open.

Wait -- fictionfan -- isn't "Children of Fire" the EA version of Abysia? Or am I confused? We are playing middle age, just so there is no confusion.

heya CU - i'd like to join another game, but I'm enjoying having a bit of slack atm. Probably won't join another for a month or so. thanks for the offer, and good luck to all.
