OC: I only had one assassination succesfull on battlescreens, I also ended up with 2 captured thunder bows, in addition, I can certainly ascertain that my summoned guy is alive and well on the campaign map. Had he ran away he would be dead. Although I miscounted, Pythium killed two mages called Lobimag and Starwald, not one.
Several of my other assassination targets also proceeded to fight in the battles of Mictlan, after eliminating their would be assassins with superior firepower.

Besides, in what way are we more agressive than Pythium?
Our early clash with Tien Chi was unanticipated, and while we deplored senseless loss of life, we felt no hostility towards them and promptly signed an NAP 3 proving our rational and peacefull nature. Nor did we initiate into any attempt of bullying them into submission, when we asked about their opinion on matters during the early stages of the Tien-Chi-Mictlan-Pythium war, we indeed welcomed their well thought out reply, even though we opted to do something else. Nor do we bear ill will towards Tien Chi in general, their decision to side with Pythium makes sense from their point of view, the sheer laws of geography dictate that Tien Chi can make potential gains from fighting Ulm, while fighting Pythium would be georgraphically infeasable.
While we did engange in an early war with Shinuyama, we were most rational with all of our other neighbours which included Acrosephale.
That Acrosephale choose to suprise attack us and spit on our previous border agreements (and in spite of having an AI neighbour) did indeed lead to a full retribution, and contrary to Pythiums believes, we were fully willing to share spoils, and partly did so with Shinuyama.
Shinuyama itself profited from the Acrosephalan ulmish war by managing to conquer not insignificant amounts of neutral territory and get an additional inlet into the sea.
Concerning Mictlan, we were in the belief that wide segments of the world agreed that having Pythium conquer all of Mictlan is not acceptable.

On a general note, we also do not consider either ourselfs nor Pythium to be "superpowers" in cold war sense of today. The policies of nations such as Shinuyama and Caelum are driven solely by their own rational self interests, and Ulm has proved in that past to be quite accomdating of those.

All in-character banter aside, this is worrisome because my turn-35 results seem very different from your results turn-35 results. I have attached a picture showing a sampling of what I've seen so we can try and reconcile this as either a misreading of events or an actual llamaserver, turn-out-of-sync error.
