What is new with Marignon?

Under Fires of the Faith you have same units as in default theme. However, in my experience, this theme allows your domain to go beyond level 10 (unless changed in most recent patches). Under Diabolical Faith you lose Initiate, Witch Hunter, and Grand Master and get Diabolist (1/1 f/b) and Goethic Master (2/2/2/1 f/b/p/r)

what does mean the 'r' in the Last level of Goethic master?
And I suppose its really Goethic, as in the myth, and not Gothic ?

R is for Random, King of Amber.

Err, random magic pick, I mean! Heh!

Just figured that some mn after posting!

Zelazny serie is a must read, do you think we can make a map based on it? It would be difficult to instill Amber background in dominions type games though.

I loved the Amber series.
The first book (9 princes or something) was amzing. the rest were garadually less so but still very good.
It would be great if someone made a map for it or even better make a mod.

Another great inspiration might be the etrernal champion by Michael Moorcock.

The problem with Amber is that it will be difficult to fit all the peculiarities (spelling?) of the cycle in a dominions expand and fight game...

I made a doms I map about Melnibonée, there is a load of scripted provinces in it, if you are interested.

Hmm, the setting would provide a lot of good logic supporting different nations (from different Shadows, in this case) coming together. The map itself would probably work best if it represented a single Shadow instead of trying to replicate some kind of multi-plane effect.

Make each nation a Prince of Amber to be their Pretender and it should work out fairly well, I'd think.

Oh, and I call Benedict if it gets tested in MP. Heh!

Another option might be to make the Princes and Princesses the various Pretender options for one nation and set up the scenario to be a conquest of a Shadow realm, as apparently often happened in the days before the Patternfall War.
