I play a game of PoP maybe once or twice a year. Usually the games are good and the entire map is taken. This time around the Fierds own 3/4 of the map, Ravernstern is confined to Rane and Poinsbruk. The D'Shar have their 4 original towns and that land, they're doing okay. I stuck with Sarleon all game for a challenge until I noticed Empire was nearly destroyed. I joined them and reclaimed their original castles from the D'Shar illegally. Question here is, the game is so lame everytime Empire goes to war it's with the Fierds and the D'Shar at the same time - AND the D'Shar and Fierds won't fight each other. Should it not be the case that the two strongest factions square off, and Empire/D'Shar be against the Fierds? I'm considering saving my character and loading it into a new game, not very fun at this point with these game mechanics. At this point what options do I have?
