Weren’t you still quite some distance away from completing Advanced Mystic Control?

I was around 11/15 by using the government building in Saurth. I just needed an extra push from either Dark Passages or some time to continue researching it.


Ah, okay. I see the confusion - when I said you had two vampires and that they research blood magic 50% faster, I didn't mean they each produced as much research as two Scholars of 1000 people :P

Oh, also, Game and others - remember that Slaves explicitly double resources from one Quarter, not Food or Science or Industry or anything like that. They're great for mining ore, or harvesting cotton, but not for farming and research.

Ok, so I'm guessing it's that I have half of a point if both poured their time into it.

Well, no... more you'll need to expand the amount of people collaborating with the vampires to get real civilization-scale research done.

You should know G by now. Hes the type of OP that wont give you daisy and roses and will tuck you in bed at night. :P

No, hes more like a gritty and gnarly OP who lacks any grace or generosity. Preferring to generally leave oneself to his or her own devices. Leaving the only most pro gamers to last under his grand RPs that leave even the most professional OPs gawking. Only the genial and gallant players can last under his RP. Leaving no room for the gluttonous and greedy. To which is why he has the great pleasure to being called G.

Yeah, you guys have certainly been ignoring the real threat this whole time....the Sandwalkers!

But actually, if you guys were to set aside your differences you could probably work together to make a fleet that could match G's.

So out of curiosity... Can we have someone finally visit the capital of the Midnight Empire?

*looks at Ralnis*

Certainly someone can enjoy mucking up imperial midnight politics...

Does it take actions to convert people?

Yes, I will be mostly recruiting humans first then pick a handful to establish a core then have them spread out and form other cells to expand our reach.

How would you go about nerfing the Hierarchy? She's a large civilization, sure, but that's largely because of the length of her existence.

Give them events that put the nation into great peril like everyone else.

The issue I see is that there are to little "great powers", two to be exact. While everyone else is stuck a tier one, only capable of dealing with the threats in front of them.

Tier 1: Dominion, Varra, Serrith, etc

Tier 2: Fastaqui, Hiearchy

I don't think Fastaqui and the Hierarchy can really be compared at all. The Hierarchy has almost 100 pop between all her cities, and Fastaqui has only 23 pop and half as many cities.

The Hierarchy's only contender was wiped out by a series unfortunate events. And I should note that I believe Serrith was around for about as long as the Hierarchy, even if it was an NPC for a short while.
