Re: MP game - \"Pantheons\" Preliminary invite

just a thought (everything that follows is just IMHO):
what bout 3 teams of 4? or 4 teams of 3? If there's more then just two teams, it might create alot more importance in deciding who you need to...

Re: fatigue question

something curious happened a while back: my Allfather pretender kept fighting even though he had well almost 140 fatigue! I was still quite new to the game, so I didn't think much of it at the time....

Re: Who uses an All-Paths Pretender?

i guess if you go for lots of gems (with a rainbow pretender), you're probably gonna rely mainly on summons+casters+SCs and a bit of troop backup if any? or do you still need large troop armies.

Re: Who uses an All-Paths Pretender?
