The Skaven would have won through eventually, in my unbiased opinion.

Random thoughts on the stumpies ..

The Dwarven warriors high morale is their great strength, units have to be killed to a man, sorry dwarf, before they rout.

The 40 protection Runic Ward shields on the Runeguards seems too high - maybe they should have some cold resistance added and the shield dialed down.

Maybe the troll slayers and giant slayers should be low level summons rather than out of the box trample counters. Forcing the player to do some research if they find they have elephants etc. as neighbours.

Reducing the protection of the runic ward is probably not completely unwarranted... 40 is an awful lot of protection for a shield.

However I disagree with making slayers unrecruitable. Dwarf armies are so ridiculously slow to build, they need to have a pretty good trample counter available or they are completely screwed. Dwarven magic being what it is, forcing them to have to have strong research out of the gate would be pretty harsh.

I moved the dwarf discussion to the mod thread. Just to keep this thing in topic.

About Themiskyra and its current version in the game. Yeah, it's OP, I should've given it a bit more testing at the beginning. But it is the mod we started the game with and we cannot change the mod mid-game without major hassle, so IMHO let's just go on with the game. Let's pretend that "Themiskyra = Ashdod" when dealing with it. As for the fun factor Gregstrom mentioned, perhaps he would like to search for a sub? Themiskyra is in a powerful & intresting position and the appereance of a new player could be considered as a "handicap" as far as the nation is concerned.

And to bring this thread even more on topic:

LOLZ! Greg is cheaterz! Lisetn guys, let's gagn ihm! Supsire buttsecks!

(I would've written a detailed RP post, bit I'm in a bit of a hurry now, that was much faster to type)
