I'm looking for someone to take over my civ for the Mastery-era EitB PBEM. The game presents a fascinating opportunity to dive into late-era FFH tactics and empire-management; unfortunately I don't have the time or wherewithal to give the game the full attention it deserves.
Leader is Jonas of the Clan.
Situation summary:
The map is absolutely enormous, which is wonderful for the Clan, but also a large part of why the empire requires a substantial time investment to run properly. You're in a hot war with Qg which is taking place almost entirely at sea; there's no reason why the war couldn't have been won, and it still might be possible to achieve a clear victory now, but I've been making mistakes turn after turn due to playing them too quickly which have started to compile into a serious problem, and the conflict is threatening to spiral out of control.
That said, none of your opponents have any chance to win the game. The map is too large for conquest or domination (plus everyone is locked in perpetual tech parity), everyone only has access to one religion so there aren't enough multipliers to achieve culture, and as best I can tell nobody is bothering to construct Altar pieces. You can win the game however, due to what appears to be a mapmaker's oversight that has given you access to four nodes (everyone else appears to have three). Holding them all until the Tower can be completed may be a challenge; Qg will do anything he can to stop you and plako might join in once he sees you completing the elemental towers.
I give the civ about a 30% chance of victory, and everyone else even lower.
Post here, in my thread, or send me a PM if you're interested!
