Live and learn... (die and learn...)

You probably COULD have taken the ogres. I suspect that I kind of threw a wrench in your plans. However, the ogres, instead of waiting for me to help them finish you off, proceeded to attack me with full force instead of helping me gank you. Needless to say, I think that kind of ruined my chances of being a real major power, since it became a long, drawn out, draining war that didn't really break till Stygia arrived.
