Pythium
C'tis is not known for our sense of humor, but the Bakemono sure know how to make a lizard laugh!
Pythium has not only higher gem income than C'tis, they also have the Sickle Whose Crop Is Pain. C'tis had a scout in a barbarian province just this month, and Pythium picked up 30 death gems from that battle! That's in addition to their gem income that's already higher than that of C'tis.
C'tis has pretty much maxed out on research, but it doesn't do a whole lot of good when C'tis doesn't have casters for Fog Warriors and nice stuff like that, which Pythium has. Did you not see the battle in Vanheim's capitol? Gem income is absolutely the most critical aspect of the game at this point. Well, research too, but it's only critical to have enough research, not to max out every single path.
C'tis can summon and GoR one Tartarian a turn, and maybe give him some okay gear. Pythium can summon at least three a turn, three just from the Sickle income alone, and they have the Aegis, Mage Bane, the Sickle, and nearly all the other good artifacts, except for the Chalice and the Scepter of Dark Regency. And it's not hard to take those away from me, with Pythium's ability to Wish.
Not that Pythium needs the Chalice, since they have Gift of Health up. Not that Pythium needs Tartarians, since they've got a legion of Harbringers in the Hall of Fame. But if they do want some Tartarian buddies for their angels, they also still have had Mother Oak up since the beginning of the game, so GoR is not a problem for them.
The only thing standing between C'tis and destruction is Invincible Agartha, who blocks the route of Pythium into our swamps which they seem to covet so dearly.

Re: Pythium
Pythium's only mages with death magic is its pretender, and 1 lamia queen. pythium's highest d mage of the 2 he has, is a level 3 d mage. Unlike Ctis, Pythium has no gor tartarians, or immortal demilichs.
Pythium highest s mage is 4s, and cannot even sniff wishing. Plus, pythium in an earlier handshake deal promised not to wish your chalice away, and pythium does not break his word or forget his promises.
Pythium tried unsuccessfully to trade ryleh for a 5s starspawn-in case Pythium ever did want to wish for something. Ryleh said he did not have any for trade. So Pythium's highest s mage remains 4s, and only a fool would empower a mage with extreme old age from 4 to 6. And i certainly have not.
While Pythium does have a large gem income, a huge chunk of that is from gale gate, and no one ever won a big mp game on the back of air gems. In crunch time, the game will be decided by s and d gems. And my d gem income is meager despite the sickle. There are not many barbarian provinces in the South, which is why i had to snag one in agartha's area(with his permission). btw, he did not snag 30, but 23.
So on most every turn, the sickle is idle. But if anyone in the world needs barbarians cleared from a province, send me a message. I am your man!
Besides I was trying to crown you champion VFB, you should accept your crown. you are much too modest.
Pythium is also the only race to promise not to cast arcane nexus, bot, utterdark, and astral corruption. The big fear of s gems is arcane nexus, and i have removed that weapon from my arsenal.
Besides who could siege those castles in that disease dominion?
Also tartarians have a wide variety of magic, and many of them have 3 air. So you do in fact have mages that can cast fog warriors, or any other combat spell your heart desires.

Re: Pythium
Well then, it is time for the world to see which of Pythium and C'tis is stronger then.
We must compete, to see who shall have the privilege of sitting at the right hand of Invincible Agartha's table, and who shall be seated on the left.

Re: Pythium
I doubt it will be much of a competition.

Re: Pythium
So there is going to be a game deciding war between Pythium and Ctis?
I know that the nation of the Bakemono are not as strong as the above nations and will admit to the winner of this war being the true leader of the world.
However, the invincible Agartha will always be the power behind the throne.

That was hilarious Holyfrog. I mean, probably more hilarious for me. But still, very funny. Cold immune Unfrozen freezing to death.
That said, if you want to continue our little war, we shall then. It's not of much importance in the greater scheme of things.

Re: Pythium
Pythium is not fighting any war with Ctis, as it would be futile. We do not share a border with Ctis, and have no troops that can withstand his dominion.
But if Ctis is bored and attacks us, we will try to defend our borders, and ask our friends for aid.
