That's LA Ermor, mostly. MA isn't quite so bad, although the volumes of Longdead Horsemen they throw out can be pretty darned unpleasant.

And there's a lot to be said for attacking the big guy near you before he is large enough to step on you without noticing.

Default I\'m back

Ok, I'm now back and as soon as I can post a turn I will resume the game to the 30 hour schedule. Sorry for all the inconvenience my break has caused to you.

However it seems that more often than not you end up dragging both of you down and someone else can come in and step on you.

I agree that me battling Ermor is dragging us both down while others profit (Machaka). That said, just seeing how fast Ermor can generate troops in a few turns leads me to conclude that waiting to fight would also be a losing strategy.

Machaka is in other part of the map That is team game so it is a bit different. I suppose DonCorazon neighbours only Ermor so he does not have much of a choice to expand. The only team that can use it and attack him is Pythium + Abysia, which is quite strong too.

I didn't mean in this case specifically. I was just observing that In any war especially early in the game it seems that both nations suffer in the long run.

But it does make sense to attack Ermor early. As your teammate I support your strategy and of course will help as much as I can.
