Default Re: A few general questions about Dominions 2

1) The AI is in my mind OK but I dislike it for it's bloodthirsty behavior.


2) The game is deep but a lot of the depth is practicaly unused. Magic and supercombatants make conventional armies unusable really fast. There is certain charm in finding the counters to the supercombatants though. Magic items are dominated by few must-have items. Spell usability varies a lot and many spells that were rarely used in Dom I were made at least situationally usefull in Dom II.

3) Can't really comment here, I've played so little MP and it has been mostly quick LAN and IP games between me and my friends.

4) Depends a lot on what nation you are playing and what your situation is. Big commanders able to take and make punishment who are decked wtih good equipment will generally destroy a lot of smaller units. Something like a Niefel Jarl with Wraith Sword and Horror Helmet with some Niefel Giants as support.
