Foodstamp, you are making it sound like you were the one who was peacefully standing around. You were the one who practically declared war on both of us.

I would like to submit that the epic hero for MA Agartha is sub sub sub par. He is basically a national troop with added w2. I just put him in the castle for research.

I am clearly the victim here sir

My first post was written jokingly, except I really needed the 48 hours because of my RL schedule right now.

Someone sent me a private message thinking the post was serious, so I made the second post to let the parties involved know that I don't mind fighting a multifront war.

Goodluck in the fights to come!

Lolo,

My hands are basically tied with respect to Agartha and Bandar Log's Epic Heroes made by Endoperez. He has been serving in his country's armed forces, and has not been available for dominions III discussions of late.

Endoperez made the 2 heroes he did for the Epic Heroes Mod, with the clear understanding that I could only tweak his heroes if they were OVERPOWERD, not otherwise.

While I technically breached the deal by adding a research bonus to Agartha, Endoperez gave his blessing to that change. I do understand that he thought the magic abilities of the Agartha Epic Hero opened up significant options not otherwise available to agartha.

You could send him a pm highlighting the imbalances you have observed. So he is not one of the 3 Hall of Fame commanders your race presently has?


And Dr. P, boring? Pleeassse. You made him. If you want a melee type hero, feel free to redesign him. I am not sure Tien chi needs a dominion summon for early expansion or defense.

Dr. P said:

"He's rather like an existing hero Lu Ting-Pin (whom I also got) but with +1W, +2A, +1H, awe, magic being, the dominion spread, and he loses flight and the armor slot."

The thing is, my good Dr., there is no guarantee you will get one of the very powerful Worthy Heroes. You begin the game with Li Bo.

And the Epic Heroes are supposed to be Epic, but some of the beefed up 1.7 Worthy heroes are sorta Epic as well. For some races it almost makes sense to take 3 luck to try and maximize your chancce of getting the Worthy heroes.

If you take 3 mis like Pythium, you only get your Epic Hero. So if another player takes 3 misf with Tien Chi, maybe Li Bo's value to them will be greater than a player who had the good fortune to get an immortal Worthy Hero right off the bat!

I will add that I have yet to get any worthy hero, and yes i am jealous!

No worries Xietor, I'll try to work towards the advantage Endoperez had in mind.

I apologize for the stale turn. Something unexpected came up at the last minute and I was 30 minutes too late to submit my turn . Just to let you know, the stale was an isolated instance.

Oh, you're right. He's +1F,+1A vs. the basic version. Okay, that's fair. I still think Li Bo should get his flight back - maybe trade fire for nature? The fire is a lot *better* but he's really very similar to the other immortal. He's sort-of a bard, maybe he should be a stealthy spy? With the dominion spread you might actually use him for that.

R'lyeh, the vile betrayer, must perish! After agreeing with me on a joint attack against Mictlan (but not to an NAP, I don't believe), he has stabbed me in the back, taking my only water province (held in reserve to cast underwater summons.)

Therefore, I extend the scaly hand of peace towards our mutual neighbors - Mictlan (jutetrea) and Atlantis (zoshan), may consider allying themselves with R'lyeh, but do you really wish such a poisonous snake at your side? The celestial empire promises true constancy.

Death to R'lyeh!
