So I started off a bannor game and swapped to basium after a few hundred turns. Got to say was pretty shoddy changing into them. My economy was absolutely stuffed. I only had 3 cities as the bannor when I swapped, but was pulling in new techs at a pretty good rate (only low difficulty), on swapping even maxed research was 4-5* as long per tech. I just gave up and let Capria do all the researching for me while building gold.
Infernals weren't actually active yet, was hoping to get a good alliance going (was amusing when a lot of people started vassalizing to me, and I took all their mana/resources) before they spawned for a nice global war effort. But the game was so against my normal style (I'm a bit of a builder) I decided to throw in the towel.
Anyone got any tips for playing basium effectively?
