Re: Pythium Strategies

I have experience,but only with early/small games. . . 4 communicants/2 casters is a good combo, because the casters get +2 levels and, generally, fatigue means nearly nothing to them.

Would...

Re: The Dominions 3: \"Wishlist\"

I think this has been gone over somewhat, but adding to "Cast spells" (last thing scripted) "Cast offensive", "Cast support" and possibly "Cast personal defensive".

Because sometimes I want my...

Turns 50-53: Relative Calm.

Re: regen

Possible bug, possible terrible luck: I sent a Scorpion King in vs. a handful of Ulmites. Scorp cast Personal Regen and went to attack. Did not seem to regenerate [or took more damage than I...

Re: Super-Combatants

Hmm. I'm now considering a batch of dwarven-booted Arco mystics with cybereyes.

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

I'm not worried about Dominion as long as I have a major advantage on research- I don't think faith and legions can compete with dozens of uparmored Trolls and hundreds of flying knives. I have...

Re: New Magic Paths in Dom3?

I'd love weak Angels as "messengers of the Lord"- especially if they could bring gems, magic items, etc. with them.

Heck, I'd like that ANYWAY, as a "utility" spell- like the ones that give +1...

Re: AI: Castle Building Algorithm

I don't know much about how the AI places troops- would it be possible to put an "extra army" in a place that is being castled?

This is to prevent the AI losing forts before they're completed. . .

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

Lightless Lantern at Con-6? I may have to research that instead. Because a Smith can build a Lightless Lantern and be twice the researcher. . . plus whatever other wonders Construction-6 delivers.

Re: Wish Questions

If you tried a wish, and it didn't work, and there's a misspelling in what you wished for. . . it's not ENTIRELY unreasonable to ask if that's cause and effect .

Re: What it will take for me to purchase Dom III

A suggestion on Dom III:

If my guy with the 2-handed flail loses an arm, could he have a backup dagger for when I throw him into the maw of battle again? Because seeing a guy in Ulm's finest...

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

What do you recommend for walking shields? The Crusher hasn't really been fieldtested- it looks like it is NOTHING but a damage sink, and might get ignored. The Clockwork Horrors were fun (SO fun!)...

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

I'm going to switch to a much more general "Things of Note" format, as I am putting in too much detail.

Re: Ulm SP AAR- Swords Vs. Sorcery

Shopping- Two Smiths (they're expensive, but once I can cast Blade Wind one smith should be the equal of twenty archers), and troops. I convert another 5 Earth...

I also have my notes with me for this post. I think I'm playing The Desert Eye- it's hard to tell, because of the wraparound. Which I didn't realize the map...
