No, you're wrong, I started laughing laik when I was losing. I knew you'd win BY THEN ALREADY! So obviously I have been laughing the longest!

Our ability to gang up on Ermor was also limited when Jomon and Arco went AI early.

It would have been nice to go one more turn (though I was totally unable to with my economy ruined by the Utterdark).
I was just about to cast Solar Brilliance when I engaged one of his big armies. I've never seen that spell in action.

Besides everything you all know about from the graphs/globals, I also had:-

All 3 air queens.
2 fire Kings.
2 water queens.
1 earth king.
King of Banefires.
4 fully healed, gift of reasoned tartarians.
Alot of unique artifacts, including the chalice, sceptre of dark regency.
I was going to cast Wrath of God in 2 turns as well.

All in all it was a little sick...how powerful I was...

I haven't played many late age games, but it seems like either Ermor gets killed early or Ermor gets out of control. Especially with Utterdark available, Ermor is going to devastate everyone if he makes it to late game. I guess that is an interesting game dynamic, but I don't know. Or maybe I'm just not that up on late age.

It's been like that since Dominions 1 with Ashen Empire Ermor. First, you kill Ermor. Then, you play the game with the rest of the folks. There's nothing in between. Never has been, and never will be. ;p

I agree.

But also now even if you eliminate Ermor, you then have R'lyeh to deal with, for a more balanced LA game its probably best to exclude both nations.

Otherwise, your just repeating the same scenario over and over again. Its fun a couple of times but then it gets boring and there are some really good fun nations to play in LA.
