Oh, and lets see.
-Good death and nature plus enough astral and blood. Ie, great magic.
-Bugged poison archers that are absolutely brutal.
-Witchkings and Warrior Priestesses are sacred thugs
-Ready access to fortune tellers makes misfortune less bad
-Good Cavalry (even ignoring the sacred ones, since those are cap only)

Niefelheim isn't that bad when you take the forced 12 turns of non-aggression into account.

I'm not totally sure I agree.

[Zeldor]

I wouldn't say that Sauro has recruitable thugs. It's really stretching thug status.

Sauro is really good, but on those settings I don't think it's really better than let's say LA TC.

I don;t think any non-thug nation is worth more than 6 in this game.

DrPraetorius:

I don't have final version yet, I should have it probably tomorrow. I will take intou account your and other suggestions and fix my points

[Zeldor]

So DrP + Calahan is a team.

We have BlackGuard and Apsophos looking for teammates. And 3 more teams to go.

I remember the original list being ordered by point value and not nation name as well... that would be a lot easier to argue about...

i'm not sure if that's how the official list was done but I know that my team(s) used such a copy to debate what it's preferences would be...

[Zeldor]

Sure, I can do so

[Lingchih]

I'm dropping out of this game. Sorry Namad.

[namad]

well looks like I'm looking for a new teammate... someone I already know... otherwise I might have to drop out as well..

[Alpine Joe]

I will play in this.

Anyone interested in being my teammate?

[NooBliss]

Hi.

I'd like to play, but I also have no teammate.
