Well, do you have anything that can stand up to his sheer numbers?

What about after the losses you might expect to take against Bandar Log?

What about when the war with Bandar is over, and Shinu has had all that time to build and train, and prepare for the war that you and Jotun will bring to him once you are done with me (according to "the plan")?

Zhao is going to win. If he claims the rest of what Ashdod has, he'll be at 4 capitals already, with income+gems far beyond anyone else, and with research that is even rivaling yours now. If he were a less experienced player (like me, or even less so!), then I'd agree it's still a bit up in the air, but as it sits I'm having a hard time imagining the game making it to year 5 before a Shinuyama victory occurs.

Magic! And uh, how many nations are still left?

That's no lady, that's my wife!



And you're right, with 5 more turns of NAP, the Bandar will either be completely hip-deep in giants, or wiped out anyway, and you will get to attack undefended territories, as our reward for sparing your miserable Arcoscephalian lives.

Interesting to note how often I have been stabbed in the kidneys after showing mercy in MP games (here and other games entirely), I suppose it's a response that I must condition myself against.

I think a lot of us have wasted our time here, Jazz. I feel ya. <3

Heh I wasn't sure on the protocol since I had no contact with Bandar. Is it generally considered good form to declare you will be at war the floowoing turn. So that you have a single turn in which to make some adjustments (the turn you get the message) I.E get a message the same turn in which I set my troops to attack you?



I also had little notion that the vp conditions were so low.
