Re: Pangean Musings

I can make Carrion Woods work well past mid-game - but it's hard. I'm having a lot of fun doing it so I don't care. Like Ermor you just don't buy any units that you will have maintain. But with a...

A fiend Last night could not connect to my server - a sniffer on his local LAN revieled no outbound traffic from his PC at all when he was trying to connect to me across the net!?!

However, he...

Re: Renaming Commanders

This was discussed a while back under "A Crone by any other name".

I miss it a lot frankly. I got two commmanders of the same name and type in a game this weekend. In the old days, I would have...

Re: AI is better than I thought...

I've had the stuffing kicked out of me on every SP game with the other players set to impossible. But, the Last game was not so bad... I'm getting the hang of the carrion woods theme. I may be...

Re: Bodyguard Question

I guard my "loved ones" with 5 STRONG troops of any type (whatever I can afford) AND 10-15 lesser troops. This prevents "first strike" access to him/her.

The trick of surrounding them with...

Re: How do you get Level 5 Priests?

Unless you play me or Gandalf you probably will not have your commanders stolen this way. (grin) It's expensive and time consuming. However, it is a way to "recruit" some diversity into your ranks....

Re: How do you get Level 5 Priests?

LOL, did you say "unfair"?

Every nation has strengths and when they employ strategies to maximize them, this process creates weaknesses in other areas. If you want Smite, you might have to try a...

Re: Weapons

I can see that. I guess most sports make an attempt at level equipment.

And with no equipment variance, we are focused on devloping fighters.

I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Re: To Illwinter

I have threatened my close friends (those who game) with personal bodily harm if they don't purchase a copy and allow my pangean minions to carve up their empires one by one.

I understand that we will not be able to manage weapons. Is that true?

Economic Simulation

Re: Economic Simulation

I agree, "Guns & Butter" doctrine establishes this. That's why I find it odd to have such a rich magical and combat simulation with such a stark economic...

Re: Is this game worth to buy? Hum.

I am not finishing games in 40 turns either. Maybe I'm just too slow.

AI bashing is so popular and it's impossible to defend against such vague accusations. I have seen some AI blunders in the...

Re: your thoughts on Dominions II

You guys have really tried the AI this much? Were you beta testers or what?

Demo length

How long was that Demo? It just stopped on me and I didn't keep track of my turns.... I guess it's a compliment that I lost track of time.

But it seemed short. It did run fine on my laptop...

Re: from which source you heard of dominions (I/II)

I found Dominions while searching usenet for information on MOMII. I saw a post by Gandalf Parker and knew this game was for me.

Rondom Events Question

I just started a new SP game as Ermor and for variety I decided to go with +3 luck. I quickly grabbed 2 other provinces and then worked on research.
