Re: Ermythiumephale overpowered? Tell us what you think!
This poll needs revision. One of the options for "which nation wins MP games the most" should be "Mine". Because I win most of them regardless of which nation I play, probably because I play way too much.
Although you're absolutely right: Ermythiumephale is definitely overpowered. A dead nation with powerful, no-maintenance unholy mage-priests covering the entire gamut of magic paths through their astral, death, and multiple randoms, and cheaply summonable 0-upkeep communion slaves that are also unholy priests? That's definitely overpowered.

Re: Ermythiumephale overpowered? Tell us what you think!
When I looked at the results, Ermor was in the lead in both categories (most likely to win *and* most likely to be eliminated first). 
Of course, this poll is unscientific: it just asks people their subjective impressions of which nations are most likely to win/be eliminated, and is not based on actual records of games played. People may remember incorrectly.
Also, it compares games played with different game settings, maps, and sets of nations participating, and as we all know, Dom 2 has a significant luck element (and I'm not just talking about the scale).

Re: Ermythiumephale overpowered? Tell us what you think!
Add this to your poll. How many of these wins were by Clam Hoarding Vamp Queens??? If I join one more Multi that has 3-4 Vamp Queen pretenders (yawn...boring) I am going to puke! Come on people get a little more creative.

Nothing "creative" about it. It's about being optimal. And currently the VQ holds the crown. It's too bad but them's the facts. |

Vampire Queens have their points, but they're not that good. You just need to play with some different people.
