Re: A few general questions about Dominions 2

The type of people who go through the trouble of posting to this board are going to be the type of people who can beat most other players as well as the AI of this game.

Re: Ermor?

I recently posted that in my current SP game Ermor had a few spots on the map where it had over 400 troop. But I found that I could win an open battle against it with an army of about 150 mixed...

Re: Was going to buy the game and then!

Well in SP I don't use exploits. I just follow sound strategy. But sound strategy may be what the AI will never be able to do.

Re: Was going to buy the game and then!

In responce to the initial subject- "Was going to buy the game and then!"

Re: Was going to buy the game and then!

There is no purpose to worrying about Declarations of War! Who cares. The objective is to eliminate ALL other pretenders anyway. You are effectively at war with all of them on turn one. Do you...

PD, how much?

I was wondering how much Province Defense players generally use. The only really successful game I've played so far is with Machaka. I've seen on the threads that Machaka is considered to have a...

Re: Water Tactics?

I do have quite a few undead scattered over the map and I can summon quite a few of the better undead. I see you say many undead can go underwater. I'll have to look at thier stats, I really never...

Water Tactics?

Okay, you've taken half the map and eliminated all but 2-3 of the other pretenders. You have a large Land army, high income of gold and gems (but low water gem income). You have no water troops or...

Re: What is Ermor doing?

I'm playing Machaka. I have the highest gem income in the world and I want to take out at least that one province so I can wrap up that whole side of the map.



On the Cradle map I own port...

This is informative. This sound like a place I like to cast Fires from Afar in. Just how good is an army like that? Can an Army with no SCs, but good quality troops, commanders and...

Re: What is Ermor doing?

I have not seen any other races build forces of this size and when they do build fairly large forces they are quite aggressive with them. Yet these huge Ermor forces just sit there, never moving or...

What is Ermor doing?

In SP game on Cradle map.

I've noticed something strange about Ermor's tactics. For example, I have cornered 4 provinces in the northeast of the map where there are three provinces belonging to...

Re: The Dominions 3: \"Wishlist\"

The way I see doing this is to have a standard setup screen. You choose where the 1st Melee unit should go, 2nd, etc. Choose where first Missile unit should go, etc. Spellcaster, etc. So if you...

Re: Loosing on purpose: morally justifiable?

Differing skill levels are PART of strategy in the game.

I don't think artifical handicaps are interesting. I think a superior player should take natural handicaps such as the weakest position...

Re: To Blood Magic, Or Not To Blood Magic

I see what you mean. Okay, skip Good\holy and Evil\unholy. But relationships between related magic which provide mutual benefits is all I was looking for.

Re: Can normal army take out Sphinx pretender?

I don't follow you. Why do you think I'm loosing 5 gems a turn just because this Sphinx is holed up in his castle under siege?

I learned a lot by asking this question. Necessity is the...
