I plan to defeat Oceania by attacking Marverni. If that fails, I have a crack squad equipped to parachute into Oceania and grovel for mercy - crying and pitiful appeals to "think of the children!" will only be employed as a last resort, unless my guys go off script and cast soul slay or the like.

I was wondering when the other players would realize it. Just this turn he landed 3 fully equipped SCs on my coast and he has a MAJOR bless plus two gemgen enchants.

In case you dont realize that it means:

Impressive guys... Somewhat weak MR, though. It might backfire on Oceania if they get hit with charm/control/hellbind heart spam.

I for one salute our new fishy masters, and look forward to cleaning their salty boots with my tongue as I sing their praises! All hail mighty Oceania! :-)

More than a little alarmist and misleading

Two globals. Two gemgens. One of them being the second best gemgen in game (the first being Arcane Nexus, and that says something).

Pretty rude too, since I've been pretty nice and helpfull to you all game...

True, but you`re really the biggest fish in our small pond currently.

suspect the main reason though is that I beat you to Earth Blood.

Never was a part of my strategy - too much Agartha/Marverni in this game.

Quote:

Guess you'll just have to make do with Mother Oak and GoH, which I expect will be along shortly.

Maybe. Or maybe not. Pan doesn`t really need GoH, you see - all Pan forces have recuperation and very long lifespans. And no native Death access in EA to leverage tartarians.

As for your 'suggestion', well, thanks to Ragnarok, I think that most of the other players will realise how horrid fighting my sacreds will be underwater, espescially when backed up by Kings

So we totally should give you time to leverage your huge multi-gem income into endless streams of Wendigos and Hidden in Snow. Yeah, sounds very smart.

No native death magic genius...

I think by now its perfectly obvious how strong Oceania is, income wise and and bless. I dont think any one other player does have 3 fully equpped SCs making landfall.

Grabs popcorn, settles in for the show ....

You only need 2d on your god to craft a skull staff and summon first wendigo. And then in several turns it`s big enough to summon another wendigoes. It`s not like tarts, where you need to climb all the way to D7 (so you need either a D5 pretender, RoS/RoW or unique scepter) and then not many of them are capable of summoning each other.
But even if you don`t have D - grendelkin are fine too. Or you can get into D game with krakens. You have more than enough W gems for it.

Most amusing turn.

I managed to nail one of Marverni's (=Ragnarok X's) marauding armies, with a bunch of communioned druids in it - overall, a quite satisfying victory, except that he nailed my pretender god on turn 2 or 3 with a soul slay. Well done, buddy - revenge for me nailing your pretender a few turns back :-D

Also, there is this tongue of land about three provinces wide to the south of me. Lanka originally owned it. Then Pan invaded it, with a larger army - but once you are in the corridor, there is not way out (unless you want to start a war with another country) - so then an army of Lankans followed the Pan dudes up and trounced them. Then Pan did it back. Then Lanka again. And now a HUUUUGE army of Pan dudes is marching up the corridor. Truly, this most excellent viewing :-)
