Personaly I never set myself to AI yet - I try to fight until I can do at least minor damage to my opponent(s), when I have noone left to fight I send all my money, gems and items to people who helped me, or to enemies of my enemies, and continue to send money/gems every turn until I lose my last province.

I wouldnt argue that. But they arent the same thing.
Forum Rules are easier to settle on and enforce. Game Rules tend to be debatable and voluntary.
But they do deserve a place in the stickies.

Re: What do you like to do when you're not dead yet?
 Gandalf!
That's the third time (2nd time in this thread) you have recently messed up quotes and either made it seem like I said something someone else said, or someone else said something I said.
Can you please stop breaking the quotes when you are responding to posts.
