So, just for fun, I am going to make a prediction. With Vanheim out of the way, Helheim will turn it's attention toward Caelum. The two of them will have a war that mainly consists of flying and raiding by both sides. Unless Caelum has some powerful magic on their side, they will probably lose. Once Helheim is finished with Caelum, they will move on to T'ien Ch'i, who will still be mired in a war with Ulm. Ulm will be near death, but Helheim will come to the rescue just in time. The two of them will push back and eventually defeat T'ien Ch'i. Helheim will see an easy opportunity to take Ulm out and will do so promptly, possibly even before T'ien Ch'i is defeated. Helheim will then move further east crushing everything in their path until they meet Niefelheim. The giants spent their entire time researching and cast the powerful Win spell. So my prediction is that Niefelheim wins by casting the Win spell!!

Nah, if Helheim will defeat me and Caelum, Niefelheim will have no choice but to surrender, since Helheim would control half of the map.

I've decided not to share the specific numbers; I don't want to scare you guys away.

Helheim already controls nearly half the map- his empire goes all the way to the top of the world. Also, for any would-be rescuers, the province # of Vanheim is 146.

I'm not bowing out yet. As long as my raiders are still active I'll have to get dominion killed, and that might take a while (I still have decent dominion ). In the meantime, there'll be a final battle in the fortress and, of course, my raiding forces causing trouble in Helheim (Agartha is sieged this turn by my raiders).

[Tyrant]

Hehe, how many players in this game? If were one of the others i think i'd be a bit offended at being dismissed so lightly.

[RamsHead]

Are you always such a party pooper? There is no Win spell. The entire thing was written in jest. Besides, how am I supposed to make a serious prediction on things that I know almost nothing about? There is no telling what could happen between now and the end of the game.

[Tyrant]

Lol, it's not just you Ram, most of this thread has been about TC vs Helheim. I have never made out of my little corner, so i have no idea what's up in the rest of the world, but something must be happening.

There's been more diplomacy and propaganda in this match than all of my DomII games put together. Normally i hate that, but it's been pretty fun this time around.

[RamsHead]

They actually got a history from you, Corwin, and me, and they have given us hardly anything. What is going on with the other nations? There are surely heated fights going on elsewhere.

[Meglobob]

And the eastern, indeed every front.

All peace and harmony in my part of the world. All the nations are roughly equal in power, so we all sit here carefully watching each another...

Perhaps building our strength up, for when the T'ien C'hi/Helheim unholy alliance arrives. It would not surprise me you know! Paranoid me...never!

I wish...

Keep dreaming, I like it...

Sounds like a plan to me!
