Which nation is the best?
What is the "very" best nation in Dominions 2: the Ascension Wars?

Re: Which nation is the best?
There is no best. I don't think any one nation is not within striking distance of a few other nations if played by the same caliber of player.
There are more well rounded, magically powerful, strong in short games, strong in long games, fits your playstyle, good with X variables that can adjust the course of any nation.

I'm with Gandalf. Actually, he did include "My spelling stinks", so I voted for that, since it seemed closest to "they're all good."

Re: Which nation is the best?
I took 'which is best' as being which is the most fun/interesting etc rather than which is the most powerful 8)
My vote went to the squiddies - the void gate has the same addictive power as a poker machine.

Yes, I know I forgot Ulm. Oops. Sorry. I was tired, and still am. Man I can't spell anything right.

I did too, and for pretty much the same reason. Plus I enjoy seeing hordes of enemies suddenly stiffen when my massed ranks of illithids cuts loose with the mind games.
I also picked Jotuns as #2. I like seeing the giants squish puny humans.  |

Re: Which nation is the best?
I also took it to be the most fun one, and I choose . . . Mictlan, no surprise there.  |

Re: Which nation is the best?
Any "best" question is always wrong. If a person stops and thinks about it, anything they are pretty knowledgeable on, a "best" question would generate questions and not just spit out one answer right away. In this case...
best fun?
best winning against AI?
best winning against humans?
best well thought out historical theme?
best on small map?
best on large map?
