Happy New Year, New Game, New Players (Finished: Dojango/Mictlan Wins!)

[dojango]

I've had a computer failure and it will probably be a few days before I can see about recovering Dom 3 off the hard drive (if it's even possible at all) so I will probably need a few days before we host the next turn.

plump helmets. guffaw!

Has this become a mopping-up operation? Is the victor really in doubt?

If not, i would be willing to concede a Mictlan victory and focus my time and attention elsewhere. This has been a fun game but if the result is not in question, maybe we should just call it?

I.

[dojango]

if you're willing to concede, I will graciously accept the mantle of victor.

Well, I would like to see my saints in action before I resign.

Is Helheim and Mictlan at war right now?

we're still on guard against the dangers of a revanchist Agartha. That mega-army is quite ominous.

I still wonder how the game would have gone if the first battle against the zmeys and mages on patrol had my divine bless as I had planned...a good clash with my main northern army will at least give me some closure in that regard

[Immaculate]

no- helheim is busy cleaning up some forts.

Yeah- so... everyone share their pretender builds.

Mine was a rainbow druid that i empowered in blood. I don't know if you all knew this or not but i had really strong research for most of the first 2/3 of the game.

Who took the ruby eye? Mictlan?

Dom 4 (thus the pre-emptive strike against the bloodsaccing Mictlan) Druid Pretender with Magic paths F4 E9 S4 N10 B4

Turmoil: 3
Sloth: 1
Heat: 3
Death: 3
Luck: 3
Drain: 2

My plan was to roll over any high dom neighbors with my blessed sacreds early and live majoritively in any good dominion I could find (Hinnom's did nicely for quite awhile as I was able to out-eco everybody else even with only half of my territory in Hinnom's dominion)

Agarthan sacreds are cheap to purchase and cheap to maintain and with 13 attack value + stars and 28 damage (15 attack and 38 damage for the cap only version) when berserking meant death to most units and thugs even on a shield-hit and with ~20 prot and 10 hp/round regen they were pretty impossible to kill for the majority of the game.
