Alright, to clear up some of my endgame actions.
I had basically two choices. I could rape my economy further by massing even more units, then STILL get eventually rolled over by India. If they didn't attack, then I would have loads of units with nothing to do with them and a broken economy that will never allow me to catch up. Now, the other choice was to improve my economy and hope that India keeps their word (they told me several times that they're not going to attack me). If they did attack, which was the most logical choice, then I was doomed. But there was a slim chance in the horizon that they wouldn't attack. It was a massive gambit, and obviously didn't work out, but what else could I have done? I was pretty much doomed at that point anyway, took the route I thought had the most potential.
Now, what I'm really not proud of, is the way I played the last few turns. I should have put up a fight instead of just folding over, even knowing I was doomed. Would it have made a big difference? No. But you should never give up nevertheless.
Yet, when you're actually playing the game, having played it for half a year and spent countless of hours on it, at that point when you know it's over you probably will feel pretty bad, like I did. We saw this when Mortius got rushed, he completely disappeared. Rego's team apparently got very depressed and negative towards the end. At that point it might feel justified to just give up. You shouldn't do it though, you'll regret it after you've cooled down.
