So far as I can tell machaka is only fighting me. I've killed a tartarian, taken a few provinces and killed some of his spider armies, but so far I haven't really done significant damage to him. However over the next few turns I intend to have another few dead tartarians. So whether machaka goes ai or is subbed out, the sooner it happens the better for machaka's position.
Well, I can see my fears were mostly unfounded. Nice job with the last-minute turn in everyone. Just Machaka and Caelum staled this turn. Much better than I was starting to expect.
I also note I got one of Baalz's marble creatures this turn. Let's see how long its killer lasts now, though.
Bah that was a stale that never should have happened. I had my turn ready and thought I sent it, and hadn't. Oh well. If it makes you feel better, I am fighting Machaka as well rdonj Although i have been holding off invading him since the stales.
Ah. That's very classy of you AJ I wish I could say the same but it's hard ignoring someone with 3 tartarians and an earth king on your doorstep. Well, here's to machaka's destruction once the stale-storm clears.
