hmmm well that is all assuming he means this girl to be played, cus then it would be hard to find balance even with other gods he'l create. If this one is supposed to be AI (but I agree that isn't how he brougth it) then I'd not mind fighting her.. might be a challange.

For the rest if you want to make balanced pretenders then endo has given all you need to know. If you want them a bit stronger you could make one path to like 4 (hugely decreases points needed to reach 9) or 2 points extra on a path/paths that aren't 3 already, or give an extra ability for combat pretenders, or higher research bonus etc etc.

Btw I'm not that much into the setting but wheren't the gods on earth a lil less powerfull than they where before? (because what you made would rival with the most powerfull gods you could have in the forgotten realms (don't know the exact names you'd give them.)

Yes, that version of Mystra has now been scrapped. I keep thinking of full magic research as something any clever player with enough found-gem-sites can empower themselves up to eventually.

Encumbrance was not clearly explained in the mod guide I was looking at, thanks for the help with that one.

I have gotten a basic modded Mystran nation (no predefined pretender, so make a rainbow to your specifications) and put it through a test or two, anyone want to volunteer for comments on the potential suckiness / overpowertude of these guys please respond here or send me a PM. I will post versions here as they become more polished.

It uses primarily stock units, I created 4 new units for Mystra, she also recruits Militia, Crossbowmen, Mystics, Priestesses, Wizards, and three powers of Theurg. Modified Rangers of Ulm serve her as troops under modified ranger captains. The Rangers are Mystra's only non-priest sacred units.

Monkeyvich.

I'm probably willing to help a little with that, I'm pretty busy lately so I'd probably be a bit slow (well, for me) with info though.

I used to have a similar problem. I suggest you find the #dominions irc channel and lose few blitz games. They probably won't take more than a few hours each, and usually end before turn 50. If you lose early, they can end before turn 10.

That will also teach you about blesses. They are a big part of the whole pretender design business.
