Oooohhh, great. I can't wait to play this game!
Does Mictlan or Machaka have any special themes?

No special themes at the moment for Mictlan or Machaka, although they do have the variant themes such as Restless Worshippers and Golem Cult that are available to every nation.

Well, then i'll have to fix that!

Oh, BTW, what does Restless Worshippers give you?

Actually they will suffer less from arrow fend then Man troops, but it WILL help against Tien Chi anyway. At least they will have to engage you in close combat. They mostly rely on MAGIC and they have a lot of choices there. Also, they have troops with Glaive (10 damage, 4 range but attack and defense suffers) to tackle enemy mounted troops and cavalry of there own (heavy cavalry too). Of course if you lack air wizards Tien Chi archers and crosbows are gonna walk all over you.

I suppose you are not speaking of a special bonus long weapons would have against mounted troops? (thats would be interesting, but I can live without it).

They recall me of Man in fact, with their longbowmen early, then switching to air magic when time passes. But perhaps (I hope) this wont be mandatory in doms II to forget about archers after turn 30, as it seems it will be more difficult to be immune to arrows.

Can you remind us how was tweaked storm? Does it allow arrows to be fired?

Pocus, i am not a betatester, but i hope i have these rigth:
Yes, Dom II storms will let you to shoot arrows with halved range, if i remember correctly. And Arrow Fend has been "Wardised", I.E same gem cost, no whole batlefield effect.
