Ok here we go Thor/Ra (I like Ra better than Set) verse Odin/Poseidon.
Thor starts fast using his starting food to make gatherers which he sends to food, then building dwarves which he sends to his Dwarven Mine which he created right by his tc at the start of the game. He then builds gatherers and dwarves the combo of the 2 making sure his tc is never idle. His Ulfie finds a group of 'huntables' so he builds another cart and starts hunting. Ra starts by empowering his TC and thus soon has the villie lead, also having a food bonus do to "sheepies" dumping at the tc. Set goes fairly heavy on wood but is still able to research "Skin of the Rhino" and go Classical as fast as Thor. Neither of them has scouted much more than their starting resources and a path to the enemy base (which is really all ya need...).
Odin starts the fastest with his hunting bonus bringing him plenty of food from his close huntables. Poseidon has already cast Animal Magnet between them so Odin builds another cart and sends 4-6 gathers as well as his movable animals to where the animals have had plenty of time to gather, then he promptly doubles them. Poseidon builds a mill there and they both dig in; of course since they have to wait for the animals to gather and walk and Odin had to build an oxcart this actually HURTS Odin to Classical, meaning Ra, who he is facing, reaches Classical before him.
Poseidon has a good eco going but not as good as Thor's balanced dwarf/gather econ, however Poseidon's scouting helps him greatly as he has Thor thoroughly scouted out. However Thor still hits first.
Ra reaches first and picks Ptah, he also immediatly begins building two towers on Odin's base. Odin reaches Classical 30 seconds behind Ra, and tries to flood gatherers to take out Ra's forward villies, however with one toer up and much better villies (Ra has Skin of the RHino ), Ra easily wins the gatherer war). He now finishes the 2nd tower forcing Odin to move his wood, which doesn't hurt much since he has a cart. Ra builds a rax and a temple and builds 2 monuments in his base, he is going slinger/Wadjet. Odin has picked Heimdall and is concentrating on Ulfsarks while putting up a few towers for defense. He doess an overflight of Ra's bas eand notices there are almost no military units yet, so he quickly Undermine's it and rushes his Ulfies in, crushing Ra's base. Ra sits back and booms more doing rain to better his already prodigious farming efforts, this helps the enemy almost none as they are still huting (which however is saving them a ton of wood and thus giving Odin a larger army). Odin raids with Ulfsarks and hersirs, using the hersirs to counter the Wadjets and to kill villagers ti gain favor, which Odin uses to produce 2 Einherjar to back his army up. Ra's Slingers and Wadjets are well holding their own though, the netweork of powerful Eggy defenses giving them opportunities to do hit and run attacks as Odin is using no ranged units. Ra goes to Heroic first with Odin coming soon after, their gatherer counts are about even with Odin's raids cutting Ra down to Odin's level. Odin gets Njord, Ra gets Sekhmet.Thor builds a Dwarven Armory and a longhouse to begin his forward base on Poseidon, when he hits Classical he picks Forseti and, knowing that cav are on the way, begins making and upping his Ulfsarks. Poseidon goes a bit before Thor and picks Hermes, however he has gone heavy favor and is building mainly Centaurs with only a few cavalry to gaurd them. His centaurs meet up with Thors Ulfies and a minute of hit and run later all of Thor's army lies dying, with only a few enemy dead. Thor only has the favor for one troll and starts building TA and hersir to back them up, he is forced to concede his forward base and watches as Poseidon burns it to the ground. However Thor is still raking in the gold from his Dwarves and when Poseidon reaches Thor's town his well upgraded army of TAs and hersirs tear Poseidons vulnerable Myth based army apart, gaining tons of favor in the proccess. He rebuils his forward base, puts a Healing Spring in the middle of it, and exectues a series of TA raids, while rebuilding his Ulfsarks, knowing that cav will come at some point. Poseidon stopped building amry after his initial victory and so reaches the Heroic Age quickly. He chooses Dionysus and tries to use his Hipprokons to drive off Thor's pesky raids, however as he has much fewer the masses Trolls/TAs/Ulfies drive them off. Poseidon sets up some defenses and booms outward, this time making sure to gather a large army before attacking. Thor has gone Heroic now and picked Skadi and puts a hill fort word on Poseidon's TC, when Poseidon's cavalry try to stop them Thor simply freezes them and finishes the fort as he brings up his army, when the cav unfreeze they are under a hillfort and surrounded, though they fight hard they are crushed. Poseidon realizes he needs more power to stop Thor so he builds a group of Hydras and backs them with every archer and Centaur he can lay his hands on. Thor, howeverm moves in with rams, Huskarls, Ulfsarks, and TAs. His Huskarls swing around into the archers, easily avoiding the pondeeous Hydra, which are surrounded by Ulfsars and TAs and dispatched. The portable rams quickly carve a hole in Poseidons defenses, Poseidon loses his initial TC and runs to a vacant settlement near his ally, he also has a puts a tc in the corner between him and Thor.
On the other front Ra is now nearly fully towered and walled in and is booming his eco and his monument production. However this leaves Odin open to place a forward hill fort on Thor and mass Jarls, hearing the pleas of help from his ally he charges into Thors city, in desperation he even uses Walking Woods on a huge group of Thors gatherers which are walled in; the walls turn into a liability as the trees wipe the grin of Thors face and annhilate his wood operation, the jarls and now a few Mountain Giants are tearing through his old base, and he retreats what he can to Poseidon's city, where he has capture his initial settlement and another outlying one. his sacrafice is not in vain however.
Ra has massed a truly impressive army of Scarabs, spearmen (like 40 of them), and cav archers (almost 20). He marches not to help his ally but instead to decimate Odin's town. The weak Norse buildings fall quickly to the assault, Odin hurridly produces more Valkaries and Jarls and matches them up with his forward cav who has run home (his Giants are so slow he just left them keeping the pressure on Thor). His massed cavalry take out the scarabs but die in the ensuing battle, which takes place over the acid stained scarab corpses. Ra hardly halts as he bring more scarabs up and chews through Odin. Poseidon, having built up well sends raiding cavalry into Ras town, where their initial success is crushed by Ra Citadeling his main tc.
Thor and Poseidon reach Mythic first, with Thor being in much worse shape. Thor picks Tyr and immediately casts a FimbulWinter to buy him time to rebuild. Poseidon's economy is gaurded and suffers little but Odin's fleeing gatherers take a tremendous beating. Poseidon however has chosen Artemis and uses an Earthquake to break through (indeed immoliate) Thor's small very dense walled in town, and nearly annhilates him with cavalry. Poseidon masses up Hydras, Chimera, and FU cavalry, while prepping for confrentation with Ra.
Ra advances to Mythic slow, but with a huge economy and massive favor gathering, he picks Horus and his Avengers soon form the backbone of Ras army. Poseidon, seeing this with his Pegasus builds more archers and Centaurs to counter. The two armies meet near Poseidon's town. The Hydras and Chimera meet the Avengers in the first wave, a fairly even matchup due to Chimera's firey ranged attack. Poseidon also brings in his new archer units and the Avengers being to be killed. However Ra still has a huge advantage in that he has 2 gps left. He uses shifting sands to transport his Avengers away from the kill zone and behind the archers, then moves his mortal army up to complete the encirclement. Caught at close range with Avengers the archers are savaged, and the Chimera and Hydra are trapped, though they savage Ras mortal units, th 10 of them dealing out nearly 40 casualties. The battle still hangs in the balance as Poseidon's last forces, his cavalry he has been using to clear out Thor, reach the battle, but before they can strike a blow a tornado hurls them about, dealing great damage and opeing their ranks to Ras army. Ra now brings up his scarabs and crushes Poseidon's town, Odin tries valiantly to rebuild but he only has one settlement and few gatherers, so he only has a pitifully small army of Ulfsarks and one Mountain Giant when Poseidon loses his last settlement, knowing they have lost Odin and Poseidon resign.
