Vision foe is good against things that do not have shields and can be specifically targeted and are raiding your provinces, manticore, other large flying sc's without full slots. Admittedly a niche use however.

Besides patrolling, a watcher for 5 air gems is not bad in a battle. Unless the thug is 100 sr, is likely is going to take significant damage.

And in response to those numerous "how do i kill this water Queen" threads, though i have never replied to them, i have brought them down in mp games with packs of vampires. Risk free since it was in my own dominion.

Some nations, like Pangaea, only have the paths for curse of blood. And in Alpaca, because i was 2 drain as well, all the blood royalty was taken since i was dead last in research.

None of these I said had no use. However, I do see them very rarely if ever used, and if they have a somwhat obscure niche, what's the harm in rewarding somebody who thinks of them?

LA Argatha Hero (the possessed flame corpse, Nr 2835) description say he has some skill in fire magic, but he has only fire resistance and immortality. (of course he explode when dying).
I never saw him in vanilla game so i cannot say if his lacking fire magic skill is a bug from dominions or from cbm. However it would be nice if he had as last Fire Skill 1 to cast Fire Shield before blowing up.

They are the same as in worthy heroes, where as I recall Turin game them a variable fire magic skill from 0-3.

Cheaper vampires are something I can appreciate.

I agree wholeheartedly on the magic scale rollback.
