The one change Dom2 really needs.....

Well you might want to pick up another hobby then I doubt you are going to be able to convince the Dev's that Life Drain is 'idiotic' as you put it. And that you feel that there should not be any powerful beings able to destroy hordes of normal men by virtue of either Godliness or Uniqueness. You might try playing R;TW, which has nothing akin to magic or gods or such things and relies totally on historical units and formations and other such things (I enjoy RTW, btw for exactly that).

A post stating a tantrum of "If they don't do this, I'm not playing! I'm taking my ball and going home" type of attitude isn't exactly indicitive of reasoned feedback why or how you feel that way other than if you can't play it the way you want, you won't play (which is fine, many a game of solitaire has gotten started that way).

If you really feel that way, you might want to present your case and reasoning for it and maybe you can initiate a change that there shouldn't be Life Draining at all.
