Those are good points regarding aging. Maybe it's just that I don't have the patience to deal with it. The only nation I regularly play that has to think about aging is MA Abysia and there I just factor forging a pair of boots of youth into the recruitment cost of a warlock.

40 Nature Gems for one fortress inside my borders. Thats rather expensive. And another large army that will probably never go anywhere again. We'll see if that was worth it.

We'll see.

I was just happy to take some offensive action. I was getting tired of constantly being on the defensive. Not sure what you mean by 40 gems, though. Faery Trod is 8 gems per casting. Not cheap, but I'm more worried about losing that army than about the gem cost to get them in position.

Well, thats a CBM change. Vanilla price is 20 gems. For 16 gems total its O.K.

You put up quite a fight in Arcoscephale. I thought you had no chance, when I saw the lineup, but you nearly pulled it off! But I have to say I was happy to watch this carnage just as an observer. The losses were grave for both of you.

Now do I observe correctly, that your ancient ally Eriu has betrayed you and now lays siege to the castle of Griphons Spires. If thats so, I really have to think what consequences this has diplomatically.
