Well I suppose you already know the trick but... One nice thing with Atlantis is to set the Coral Queen as prophet. This way you will probably Smite your way through the contest of the champion and get her the nice trident.

Of course if no contest... your stuck with a still nice prophet

Zen, I would like to thank you very much for posting this...especially considering it's a map I'm familiar with from the demo. This is great info for a new player like me, and I'm appreciative of the level of detail you've put into this so far.

A big thumbs up from a newbie.

Water 3? What are you thinking? For 16 dp you get water 4, a +2 defense to Atlantis's very powerful sacred units. Why would you choose 6 dominion and 3 water?

Baka baka baka!

I'm glad you asked this question; it's been bugging me too.

Oh, yeah, that too. I forgot to add the compliment Zen is deserving of.
