				 As Promised 
  I will as promised, link the map file sometime during the course of this game. I was thinking around turn 40. By now, everyone knows the locations of their neighbors' capitals, so the nations most affected will remain the 5 whose starting locations were predetermined:
 LA Marignon, LA Atlantis, EA Lanka, EA Ryleh, and EA Oceania.
 
 But the location of these nations' capitals could likely be had for 5 gems if someone wanted them, as most of their neighbors would likely sell out their locations for a song.

  Nations dropped like flies last turn, with the last remnants of three drawing their last breath.

				 Re: As Promised 
  Ouch   .
 
 Invading EA Agartha has proven more expensive than I had anticipated - this is what I get for underestimating a seemingly green opponent.
 
 Kudos to him! If he manages to hold me off, I'll wish for his victory.

				 Tales From the Front: Fall of the Undead Legion 
 At the first gleam of sunlight, the small Utgardian army saw the horrible legion across the valley while the steady pounding of war drums shook the damp earth.  Over 500 strong, the Ermorian ranks were filled with disciplined legionnaires outfitted in gleaming silver armor, the purple flags with grinning skull-emblazoned standards flapping in the chill morning wind.  Barack, supreme warlord of the Utgardian horde, felt his heart skip as he peered closer at the shadowy ranks.  Skeletal knights clad in rotting armor with wicked scythes and notched swords were positioned on the flanks.  And in the Ermorian rearguard, an entire cadre of necromantic sorcerers chanting their fell craft.  When the battle let loose the Ermorian mages channelled their power and let loose an endless sequence of spells designed to ensnare the Utgardian woodsmen in the lure of Ermors false god.  But in the darkest hour of doubt, the independent spirit and berserk battlelust of the horde could not be overcome and Utgard saw Ermor for what it was, the rotting pile of books of another dying civilization.

				 Re: Tales From the Front: Fall of the Undead Legio 
  In the 1st Big Game the Late Age races were crushed. While it is still early, they seem to be doing better this year than last.

 |  I was LA Pan in the 1st game, and was quite strong at the end. Of course, both MA and LA Ermor, my allies, surrounded me. Might have had something to do with it
