I have requested our allmighty Passwd. keeper to turn Ermor and Mictlan to AI.

I hope everything is OK with Folket Nah27, but hey, they could have at least said something before they went off the radar...

That is okey. I have been very busy and reinstalled on my computer so I have not got everything into gear yet.

Default Mictlan Pretender

I thought I had seen most everything until I killed the Mictlan Oracle. His bless effect?

F10
W10
S10
D1
B4

He had -3 on all scales to pay for it. His eagle warriors were incredibly powerful. If not for my poison slingers, I am not sure I could have taken him out despite the overwhelming troop advantage. I think I lost loyal troops at more than a 5 to 1 ratio to the eagle warriors. A couple of times, I lost the battle but many of his eagle warriors died to the lingering poison after my retreat.

The AI will be nasty until the Dominion kill happens. As long as it is smart enough to bless the eagle and jaguar warriors in battle, that is.

It was a very interesting setup in that he kept his dominion from spreading by conducting very few slave sacrifices. He also used the good Marignon scales to get gold from captured territory to build additional sacred warriors. However, it took him too long to take Marignon out, and this allowed me to build over a hundred poison slingers before invading.

And if he had a nature bless for the poison immunity, I doubt I would have attacked him. Of course, he did not know he would start next to C'tis when he made his pretender.

I think that is pretty typical for uber bless mictlan set ups. I was a little disappointed that he went that route because it didn't seem to fit with the 'big armies' theme of the game. Then again maybe I was just whining because I was killed so early

Ouch - another of the AI nations is running an uber-bless, immortal sacred undead with W9F9 and S8 (making them hard to dispel).

I think there was supposed to be a hosting last night, but I had not received my turn as of 22:00; I'm GMT -4.
