Second Orbis succession game

Oooops...
I will play today, I hope. I totaly forgot.
 
There it is...
At turn 244, Hyborem shows (next to Balseraphs lands)
Turn 246: from now on, all our disciple units will have valor promotion for free
At turn 249 Basium is summoned by Decius.

I suppose, religious victory would be very hard :(

I think we can still win this game. Either Altar (and a lot of patience), or we can try to conquer them all - especially if we get permanent ally, which is surely possible.
Maybe, during conquest, our religion becomes dominant?

I guess even a Tower victory is remotely possible.
 
Yeah,

I'd go to religious victory through destruction of infidel cities.

let's build a decent army (using the guild of the nine), and research war techs.

We have one city with all the army we can support right now. We will never have that great of an army.

259 :
I sign peace with Furia, against her adopting Killorph. (hyborem declares her)
I'm building purging the infidels, we want to have as many people under our religion as possible, still hoping for religious victory.

I stupidely forgot to ask for open border in the agreement....

taxes are too low (research at 70% or so), we may want more money again if we are to strike somewhere else.

I feel we should now attack Hybo.
As for research, I think we hould obtain Teocracy - disciple units are the only ones we cannot buy.
Another thing - had we used our world spell? If not, maybe we should mine all hills in our culture radius and get some cash
 
I played up through turn 270 yesterday. Most of the effort was dedicated to bringing our attackers around the Balseraph past Pristine Pass. Some highlights from the turns are below:

In an attempt to avoid a multi-front war, I traded with Furia and also gave her a map.

Margalard appears on our western border.

I begin research on smelting. Something dwarves should know.

A great prophet is born. I use him for Altar of the Lunnator.

Our troops are now entering the southern reaches of Khset's land.
Some of them are currently in place blocking the elephant, until the adept gets through.

Unless I missed something, all it does is add 4 to the Armageddon counter.

I always believes that it removes other religions than official one from the city it is cast in...

Now is my turn?
Sorry again, I forgot to play, will do that today later
 
T274: Decius gives us Poisons for free! He really likes us.
Hyborem killed by Bambur. But... Was he immortal? He lives again! Some losses during the process.
T275: Thessalonica converts to FoL :(. Rivanna kills Hyborem again and takes Gela from his cold hands. Dis destroyed. We gained Infernal Grimoire.
T280: Map trading gave us info about Elohim lands, We should sent missionaries there ASAP

If you are right with Purge, we should get Thessalonica back to RoK before it is finished.
