| FIXME | In the Late Age Pangaea changes significantly from its earlier iterations of the [[pangaea-ea|Early]] and [[pangaea-ma|Middle Age]]. Gone are the ??White Centaur??s as the centerpiece of the Pangaean army. Gone is access to the Nature/Water crosspath, closing the door to powerful spells like ??Foul Vapors?? and ??Mossbody??. Gone is also the access to Blood. |
| |
| | |
| | Instead the ??Centaur Sage??s have transformed Late Age Pangaea into an Astral nation with a sprinkle of Air magic to complement the Earth and Nature magic of the ??Pan#706??ii. The untamed berserking ??White Centaurs?? have been replaced with well-drilled and awe-inspiring ??Dryad Hoplite??s, and several high [[Protection]] units have found their way into the roster like the ??Centaur Cataphract?? and ??Grove Guard??. |

| Continuing where [[pangaea ma | MA Pangaea]] left off, LA Pangaea places an even greater emphasis on durable troops supported by a very capable mage corps. Their troops compete with the best of the age: the ??Satyr Hoplite#697?? is well-protected and benefits from better-than-human stats, while the ??Centaur Cataphract#698?? is very affordable for the quality of heavy cavalry. The new ??Dryad Hoplite?? sacred is an interesting change of pace from the formidable ??White Centaur??, switching from light cavalry to [[awe | awesome]], high defense infantry. | Continuing where [[pangaea ma | MA Pangaea]] left off, LA Pangaea places an even greater emphasis on durable troops supported by a very capable mage corps.

| The new and improved Pangaean mage corps now boasts a strong research mage in the ??Centaur Sage??, who also brings durable communions and air magic to the battlefield. The Panii remain powerful {{misc:magic:earth.png?14&nolink}}earth and {{misc:magic:nature.png?14&nolink}}nature casters and the dryads' [[seduction | seductive]] powers are as oppressive as ever, if not more so due to their reduced cost. These provide strong options for midgame magic, though the chance for the {{misc:magic:water.png?14&nolink}}{{misc:magic:nature.png?14&nolink}} crosspath is no longer available and sorely missed. | The new and improved Pangaean mage corps now boasts a strong research mage in the ??Centaur Sage??, who also brings durable communions and air magic to the battlefield.

| **Combat**\\ All of the Pangaea line's 'Tune' spells have no listed range, meaning they can only be cast at point-blank. They are thus very difficult to use without getting your mage killed, despite the large area-of-effect. Of these, the ??Tune of Growth?? provides perhaps the most useful effect for a mage that is casting on the front line. | **Combat**\\ All of the Pangaea line's 'Tune' spells have no listed range, meaning they can only be cast at point-blank.

| |
| | Aside from the lack of {{path>W1N1}} for ??Mossbody?? and ??Foul Vapors??, LA Pangaea's biggest departure from its previous iterations is its lack of {{path>N4}}, making **??Mother Oak??** just out of reach without remarkable luck on a 10% random or (more likely) a {{gems>45N}} [[Empowerment]]. Fortunately your Mages are all rather hardy and long-lived, making such investments in them a lot safer than those in humans. |
| | |
| | There's also [[Communions]], of course; Blood has been lost, but you now have a supply of {{path>S1}}'s, so you can now build up to buffing spells like ??Battle Fortune?? or point-buff blocks of Dryad Hoplites with ??Body Ethereal??. Alternatively you can assemble batteries of ??Soul Slay?? or ??Enslave Mind?? casters if you tune your ratio of slaves-to-masters properly, or bring one caster up to ??Light of the Northern Star?? and have a larger force of ??Mind Burn?? users. You also have {{path>E1S1}}'s and {{path>S1N1}}'s, so you can forge a ??Crystal Matrix?? and boost your Panii; the Panii can support the Slaves with ??Summon Earthpower??'s [[Reinvigoration]], at least. |
| | |
| | Communions with LA Pangaea have some complications, though. For starters, while your {{path>S1}}'s are on the cheaper end by [[nations-la|Late-Age]] standards, you're still matched or outmatched by quite a few ([[ulm-la|Ulm]], [[patala-la|Patala]], [[gath-la|Gath]], [[r-lyeh-la|R'lyeh]], and [[erytheia-la|Erytheia]]), and all of those except for R'lyeh will outdo you in Mage production due to having 3-CP Citadels. This makes [[Magic Duel]] a legitimate concern for you, especially if they add to their starting [[Gems|Pearl]] income. On top of that, each of your {{path>S1}}'s has a random path (either {{path>A1}}, {{path>W1}}, {{path>E1}}, or {{path>N1}}); this is great when you can account for the mismatching, but it results in your mismatched Communion Slaves gaining a lot of [[Fatigue]] when non-Astral spells are used, typically off-script. |
| | |
| | Without Communions, your Panii can still cast wondrous buffs for your tougher troops (such as ??Haste??, ??Mass Regeneration??, ??Strength of Giants??, ??Legions of Steel??, ??Marble Warriors??, and ??Gaia's Blessing??), and strong offensive spells for harrying foes (such as ??Charm??, ??Wild Growth??, ??Poison Cloud??, and ??Polymorph??). |
| | |
| | If you need higher Earth, [[Empowerment]] is cheaper than summoning a ??Troll King's Court?? ({{gems>45E}} vs. {{gems>55E}}), but you might want to try that anyway since your Panii are slow to recruit. If you want reliable {{path>D1}} with a chance of {{path>D2}}, summon a ??Forest Troll Tribe?? for {{gems>37N}}; just don't count on getting that extra level of Death. |
