Default Re: D2 vs Aow:SM

I definitely like Dom2 better...it got pretty tedious having my super stack need to be led through the proper abusive tatics to beat the enemy ai large Groups of level 1 troops *again*

Dominions has a better combat system and a larger scale game with troops that feel more different. AoW seemed to consist of red swordsmen swinging ineffectively at blue swordsmen again and again until one hit and killed the other pretty fast. It seemed like MoM, but without the epic scale and fun...no armageddon, no great wasting, no zombie mastery? Instead lame spells like fire mastery. How sad...
Dominions might not have those exact spells, but burden of time, haunted forest, etc., still have the impressive power that global enchantments should, and the national mages give each race alot more flavor despite at least as similar infantry as AoW in a lot of cases.
