Default Re: Celebrities MA game started

i am curious of what bandar's player thought.

He tried to rush me from turn 5. I thought it was a suicide attempt, I played ma abysia, not exactly prone to rushes (even with sloth 3), since it has a strong early game with powerful fire mages. And i think bandar's bless strategy isnt that unresistable anyway. (besides that ma aby is my most-played with nation and i have a couple MP victories with them already)

So instead of expanding and castling up and researching, we got into a war. I built my pretender for a long-term strategy, choosing sloth 3, but I managed to beat his first invasion and conquer all my lands back. At that time i hoped he will also think that he has nearly no chance of beating me quickly, and we can revert to peace, so i didnt attacked his provinces, as a gesture: i tried to signal him i want peace. It didnt happen, as he invaded again, and i had to comit my resources to fighting him off, which i managed again. As a result bandar lagged behind in expansion and in most of the graphs (except research), me being second-to-last. This perceived (and also very real) weakness got huge cross-hairs on our backs, and we both got attacked from behind by others and stood no chance against much more prepared, much bigger armies.

deadnature i will thank u if u share ur aspect of this. and why did u attack abysia of all ur neighbors? did u think it was the easiest prey (this might be true still)? it seemed to me that ur huge tiger-cavalry had the plan to go in one direction and quickly conquer the first neighbor they meet.

thanks for the game anyway, it was very intense, quite enjoyable, and the first time i was actually beaten in an MP game (and did not give up from a strong position).

may the gods of war bless ur weapons!
