Oh, I forgot about the N9 part of ermor's bless. I was mainly worried about the blood vengence killing my troops.

Anyway, as a result, my research/number of mages is way, way, way, below where it should be (I literally just got my second lab back up and running again the turn I went AI.) I've got a decent-sized army, but Marignon's fire-crossbows could probably kill it with no losses, honestly.Um...you had W9 calvary, you could have put your red guard in two seperate groups 6 tiles behind and flanking on each side from center then have them target archers. If you had set a group of 20 foot soldiers in line formation near the front, the entire crossbow line would have shot at that. Then the calvary would have two full turns to cross the distance and start hitting the crossbowmen. If the arrow catchers survived, the crossbowmen would have shot a second time. It definitely would have been a bloody battle and would have left you vulnerable to ermor.
Lol, I get that. Back when I was around 15 years old or so, when I first played X²..I'd get in all sorts of stupid fights. Including getting that Shockwave Generator weapon thing, parking in the exit of a pirate station, and firing it. HUNDREDS OF EXPLOSIONS PER SECOND!The lag generator was fun to use as a single ship, but I ended up one time making the mistake of fully outfitting them to a carrier and jumping into one of the unknown sector.
Since round 27 ended not to long ago, there is the possiblity of starting round29, next to 28, but I doubt we'll have 6-8 players willing for it right now...I had an interesting thought for a game, nationgen pool. Each player give the number to generate a nation then once all the players have sent one then the host would make the mod, distribute it then randomly assign each player a nation. It would discourage finding the most overpowered nation since it could end up being used against you. Easiest way I found of searching for an interesting nation is under nation restriction then nation or race theme. As an example, seed 1573659351 is hoburgs that have a recruit at any fort sacreds that are power frames, but they consume a lot of supplies.
I've been playing (and losing to) super hard AI and the amount of blesses they have is gross as all hell...
