They spread dominion though.  Just like a real province you care about!

I quite like VPs.  It's grand fun playing 'King of the Hill' with the AI.  Put down your hotel on Boardwalk and wait for all the lil' Trick-or-Treaters to show up for candy arrows and jelly belly storms.  "My, what a cute little independent you are!  Here, have some Firegumballs and Licorice Whips of Command!"


I realized earlier today why the shorthand for Astral magic is 'S'.  It's because summoning horrors is BS.

I'm gonna need a day extension, most likely.  Holiday crap keeping me busy.

Just wait until your Pretender God has multiple marks on him. That's when the fun really starts :P
I once had a Pretender God with all magic paths 9+, super equipment, immortal, ethereal and basically being a pimped out bad ass. He could solo armies.

Sadly, the other nation had a lot of astral mages that were able to cast horror marks upon him. At first, he was able to kill them but eventually, super bad ass horrors killed him over and over and over again :P

That's exactly the situation I was thinking of earlier.  You'd just need some chaff between you and the horror, and then wail away at them with orb lightning.  The Big Six are seriously nasty, but with enough electrical firepower I think you should be able to take out pretty much any one of them as they can't resist it.

Oops, forgot to send my turn in yesterday and I won't be back home until after the hosting period.

That'll teach me to not procrastinate.

Not as much as I hate AI Ashdod...

Let's join into an AI hate alliance!

Actually, I kinda like Arco AI.

Llama server seems to be having some technical difficulties. Don't worry if you won't get a confirmation of receiving a turn file - they say they will process it all after they fix the problem.

Oh, I love my new vassal, AI Arco.  How nice of them to hold so much land for my eventual conquest, he he he.

I managed to liberate two provinces from AI Arco with just the "militia and high priest special" units that my predecessor recieved.
