I guess I severely overestimated your dominion score then. I assumed you had done sloth 3 death 3 drain 2 and maybe even some misfortune in there.

Its hard just to ignore the guy with such a massive province lead either.

This was a pretty big red flag as well. The tallest tree is the one that gets cut first. Of course, whoever ends up winning may have to contend with that problem as well.

Jotun, there is liebenraum north of you. Go North young (and big and furry) men! BTW, them hydras get exhausted very quickly because of cold scales and I am taking care of them anyways so they should not bother you.

I am willing to be the moderator of the peace talks, if the conclusion is that Phita is the enemy we all should face and wipe them from the surface of earth. When hes dead we can vote for the winner and live happily ever after under the god's peace.

We're sort of busy to the south at the moment, you kids have fun though. And remember not to play with sharp objects, because someone could get hurt.

I have dom score 8, with sloth 1, death 1, cold 1 drain 2 and a imprisoned Sphynx with the triple bless you all have seen posted here (D9S9E4). Raising from 8 to 9 or 10 vestals per turn is not worth the downside of bad scales.

It was actually a bless for my mages: I was planning to switch midgame to a strat of mages with comunions and powerful evocations (like shadowblast and nether darts). High affliction chances, big evocations, twist fate and reinvigoration sound very good for reverse comunions. The fact that bless made Vestals incredibly powerful was a secondary (and very wellcome) bonus.

However, it's true that leading the game is not a good thing. It's way better being the second one, it's easier to avoid being ganged up :P. I should had take a few less provinces, to avoid such notoriety, I guess. Specially if my plan was not being overly aggresive.

Sharp objects and sticky spider web is a good combination!

Like I said, I could be a moderator in peace talks. I doubt Ermor is as vulnerable as Phita. Or even as aggressive.

That's where I got mixed up. I had assumed since you were the closest in Dominion that you had at least 9 (you've likely figured out that I'm dom 10 from my pretender's presence in the battle).

Morla · #99 October 11th, 2011, 01:16 PM

I built a temple very soon. Most my troops are undead, and they can't be carried by Indie commanders, so I need a factory of Indie priest to do logistic stuff. Otherwise I lose too much mages and regular capitol comanders (lictors) just to move armies around the map from castle to castle or to join other armies and things like that.
