I was kind of planning to attack you guys for the lulz, but the game ended a few turns too early for it. :P

Well played everyone, especially Lord Parkin. You did a really good job of leveraging the religious economy while we were stuck in a long term NAP. I had underestimated the power of the religious wonders, because I'd only seen that strategy before in single player games where it tends to be really weak, but in a huge no-tech-trading game it was really powerful.

I already said the nice stuff in the lurker thread and I'm not prepared to let Gaspar use up all the rage quota. lol

If you're reading a post written with nothing but sincerity and nostalgic feelings for a game which we all invested 6+ months of our lives into, and you somehow interpret that as arrogant smugness, you really need to take a moment to consider whether your point of view might be heavily biased and overly bitter. smile

It works in SP because it's trivial to get "+6 Our Brothers and Sisters of faith" with everyone using that very same religious economy.
