As far as I know, Agartha was in a protracted war against Ulm and Man. Guess he just gave up.

In red, my dominion before you started spamming that wish, pretty much everything at 10 candles. A few more casts and you'd have wiped me (and everyone else, it seems) out.

The classic "you need your mages for research, you need your mages for fighting, you barely have mages" problem really bit me hard here. I really had aimed for an early victory, counting on everyone else playing for the late game, but Pythium held out a lot better than expected, Mictlan attacked me, and Xibalba had a doomstack sitting at my border "to fight Man", but well, gotta leave a force there. I could handle it but I just didn't have the skellypower to finish either war quickly, and dedicating mages to battle was right out. I only managed to get one path to 9, not long before the end of the game...
So when all the squids started flowing in, I found myself without much I could do at all. Throwing hordes around also wouldn't bring much, since squid stacks are excellent at snipping the commanders.
I tried to pivot to tartarians and a couple other big spells, but you also managed to Wish my pretender death twice right at the worst possible moment, which slowed me down a lot.
All in all a massive failure all over the place.

I actually won a max research speed game with MA Ermor like a decade ago because everyone trusted friendly trader Ermor and got me swimming in literally thousands of gems in exchange for all kinds of shit, information, protection money, etc. and no one could take down my third Utterdark at 700 gems overcast, but this time I failed horribly.
Was a fun game, though
