So am I, even though I'm not (yet) in anything as precarious and taxing as your situation.
 
Once again I find myself without any focused strategy in mind, other than: gandharvas are awesome, make more gandharvas. Also: don't risk gandharvas in battle, they're too precious. Truly, a flawless plan.
Maybe I'll figure something out during the break.

In other news, I think our dear Pangea is finally on its last legs, while Ermor chose the worst time of the year to telegraph their intentions.

Huzzah! My starting commander has clawed his way back into the Hall of Fame!

Gotta say, though, I think I'm most impressed by the #2 entry, an indy Annunaki that's managed to die twice.  :o

He must have learnt the legendary Twicedead spell. An unfortunate and often fatal misspelling of the Twiceborn spell.

Well my scouting is insufficient, so there might be more Pangaea than I can see, but I think they're probably done. To MCreeper: thanks for playing, and especially for fighting it out to the bitter end.

I was also hoping to break some other guys into the hall of fame this turn but the xp requirements are too steep. Maybe I'll make a champion's skull for the memes.

I'm not good at this game  :P

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Has the capital proper fallen, or are they just locked in there for good?

Fallen, Mictlan killed my swarms with amazing bloodletting.  ;D I have only one empty province in the middle of nowhere.

Rest of the sigs
The helicopter is rent apart by the collision, its steel unable to resist its inevitable reunion with the ground, and the meat within is smashed by the crumpling cockpit beyond any practical hope of recovery. What comes up, must come down again. Ore and ape, returned to mother planet's embrace.

Niefelheim seems to have had its last couple provinces at 100 PD each, for 10k gold.

Even if it was already possible or even probable that it was the AI that spent all the gold on PD, 10k gold pushes it out of "someone has been financing Niefelheim" territory and into "something happened with the AI which I don't know about" territory.

Plus the mercenaries, and temples.

Does anyone know if there are any mechanics in place through which that could have happened? That does not even feel like the sort of bonus an Impossible AI'd get, so I am down to guessing on a lump sum gold injection on going AI.

I am back; I should have the time to send in my turn tomorrow night, a little before it turns over.

Thank you all for the wait.

I will need a 1h extension due to a miscalculation on my part; I held my finished turn in case I needed to change anything, but now won't have the chance to send it in time, by a very narrow margin.

My apologies for the inconvenience.

I think I'll push it a few good extra hours later today to let everyone take notice of the reminder email.

Who was our other holiday maker? Karlito? Are you back, mate?

I'm here and have been, just procrastinating. :D Should be able to get the turn in this evening before the original deadline, though the postponement is nice.

A1s mentioned a vacation upthread, though I'm not sure on the dates.

Sorry to revise my position, but could you extend by a full 24h? My day back at work is proving busy; I expect it will carry in the evening.
