Re: Turmoil 3 / Luck 3?

Taking Luck/Turmoil for money is silly.

Luck/Turmoil is great if you have a big need for gems and gem diversity (aka, Tien Chi). All the free gem events give you a head start into remote site...

Re: Crazy&Insane Stories!

Repeat Commander Recruitment.

Fleeing from assassination is not fatal in your own territory.

Re: How weak is the AI... really?

I've lost even moderately powerful, borderline thug/SCs to random AI armies, if they just happen to have the right casters or right units.

There are a few situations where fighting the AI is hard,...

Re: New patch

I really like the Hinnom mythology. It's a cross between the Biblical antagonists of the Israelites, Vampire: The Masquerade's Antedilluvian 3rd generation fathers, and Warhammer 40k's Horus Heresy.

Hinnom pop devour to other nations

I was wondering if it could be added later, or modded, into a patch where Lanka's demonic units ate pop just as the Raphites of Hinnom did? This would help balance Lanka out i think anyway.

That's true - you could make an apologetic Dom-4 Pretender with full good scales for Ashen Empire Ermor. She's not trying to kill you, sorry about that whole death dominion thing! Or take Tir Na...

Re: Which nations represent order and good?

Eriu is one of the closest nations to being good, as the Sidhe and a few lingering Tuatha have volunteered to return and aid their conquerors in the wider world. Generally water-magic or nature...

Re: Woo-Hoo - 3.10 available

The game says 3.09 not 3.10 on the Mac Patch. It also says the patch fails when patching on the Mac but it actually works.

Re: POLL: Scales, Magic Paths, and Dominion

Well, part of the rationale here is the "what else do you get" when taking a 9-bless Pretender. A 9-Astral bless is meh, but otoh, you get a powerful late game option that's easy to employ. A...

Re: POLL: Scales, Magic Paths, and Dominion
