Ah, but $400 is worth little if anything, in the event of a failure. Since it doesnt head over the $500 threshold, you arent improving your chances of researching it in the future.
You could get lucky, but thats very risky.

How was I allowed to miss that? Cannot join as my internet access is patchy, but I'll definitely watch.

Also, it's funny how our views on the last game differ.

From my PoV, I was grewing fast due to good luck/starting position. You said you felt threatened, so I offered a border agreement that would give us all the same income. You refused it, offering  counter-proposal that would put me at your mercy.

Then Cript betrayed me a couple of time and there was war. A peace deal was made, that I accepted, but I delayed the implementation by a turn because I didn't trust Cript at all ( I didn't attack, I just didn't hand out the spoil directly). Then you got mad, and then there was war until the end, with one treachery of mine at some point, because there wasn't any trust left.

Not to say I'm right or wrong, but it's kinda funny how two people facing the same situation can have totally different opinions. Make you think about some of those IRL conflicts.

I did not betray you at all.

We talked about dealing. But in the end I went with Cyber.

Didn't you? I must say my memory of the game is a bit fuzzy.

But you definitely sneak attacked me while parlaying with me. Maybe not a betrayal, but enough that I would have an hard time trusting you afterward.

None of us were innocent of that though. By the time it was just the 3 of us as a real force, your deal proposal to me to turn on Terenos was pretty terrible. And the attempt at a 3way win was destroyed by you same as it was me and him. Glass houses sir Sheb, glass houses...

Right. But anyway, my point wasn't to show who was right or wrong, just that it's funny how we can have different outlook on the same situation. We're both convinced that mess was the other's fault for exemple.

I'm still haf-angry that you didn't notify me of this game though. :p

Prince Noir stood in the ruins of the palace and pondered.  Seigundal had burned the palace when he left and taken the treasury, but more to the point his men had razed and salted the vast majority of the fields in Erigan.  No wonder the citizens had accepted annexation so easily; their homeland had been gutted and the local industry ruined.  People were starving, and this was a hunger that would not readily be sated.  A new Estate had been added to Enigmara, but the victory had a sour taste to it; would it even be worth defending so meagre a province?  Time to limit further expansion and consolidate.  First, though...

It's not much of a reveal, but most of you already guessed.  Taking a capital off the bat was a dick move, but a dick move within the expectations of the game.  The aim was to pull the reveal whilst changing the established nature of the game and creating a vassal relationship, which would have made the buildup a little more worthwhile.  I honestly thought Taricus could have just taken the vassal treaty and then betrayed me three turns down the line rather than get taken out of the game, but c'est la vie.  :/

As it was always my intent to offer the vassalage again after the conquest of Erigan, the offer still stands.

So yeah, as Tari had suspected, our hidden player was Iituem. A fitting way to put the man that made F@W into it I thought. Amazing how many of you thought it was just me trolling you.
