I had two mages summoning and one was attacked and killed. My best mage, no less!

This outrage will not stand!!! The nation of Marverni also declares war on the Niefelheim.

Default Storm - Please Pause Game?

Hi Ironhawk:

We're having a big storm up here in New England, and I have no power or internet at home. Any chance you could put the quickhost on pause? I cannot play my turns.

The storm is supposed to die down by Tuesday afternoon.

I will try to play my turn tonight, just in case I have power, etc.

Pasha

A very specific set of boosters- those IW forgot to bump up when they changed the rest of them for dom3. It's actually the last remnant of the attempt to diversify magic present in the early dom3 CB versions. But since by itself it doesn't do a lot I'm planning to remove it next version.

Hey, Marverni, anyway I can bargain for my life? My lands Have a combined 67 income, and 6 gems. Do you really need to wipe me out?

Nope, sorry

Yeah that battle went really poorly, but hey thats the way things go in capital assaults. The next attack will be far less rushed and far more deadly.

I do have to say tho that I'm getting really tired of Shadow Blast in general. This is the third game where my armies have been utterly destroyed by that spell. Its begining to look like Death is actually the best combat path, not Fire/Air/Earth. Very disappointing.

Its powerful. It would certaintly be more powerful if I had any gem income .

But, my prophet got about 50-60 kills scripted to cloud of death then 3 blasts <spells>. Ill pay 4 gems to do that any day. Death has proven less powerful than fire in my experiance, but fire doesn't benifit from cheap astral penetration items like Shadowblast does.

I am also curious about the effects of the giants impressive spray of global unfriendliness as I too have never seen them in action and so far I am unimpressed and wonder why the lot of you scream so much.

I have no doubt that the losses due to these spells has been greater but these losses are not publicized because of the fact that that is "sekret" info but I and no doubt others would love to hear some generalized stuff!

The agarthan's have had a Giant and his wolfpack kill off the PD of a region I had conquered and I had a demon slay off an indy commander plus some unrest but no horrors to speak of. Of course, we are all researching atm (hoping someone makes the bad mens go away, nod nod) so..

Anyways I would love more data to decide whether those spells are worth it or not and I am thinking not!
