Just curious, why dom 4 here? Such a low dominion scares me in general, although I can imagine it working ok for pan or man -- but for caelum, who needs all that cold, isnt that a bit low?

It works fine with me ...I know it looks a bit weird but with dom 4 I'm trying to keep out of distance with the AI and break the silence when I'm ready. I mainly play against the AI and only tried MP 2 times(not with this one). So I don't know how it works in MP. The cold havn't been a problem so far, but sure it still need some adjustments .

Why the ice dragon with so much water? Thems a lot of points in water for a nation that is bound to get water-3 very soon. (All those points could go to Order, or dominion, or a different magic path, or anything really.) Just curious as to your feelings!!

Yea, but the only problem is that another path cost 80 which is much to start another path up and when the dragon is in dragon form it half it's magic paths. Sure I could choose another Pretender like 'Nataraja' (which would fit more nicely) but I have a thing when it comes to dragons . (perhaps illwinter should make an air dragon with lightning firing?). Also you'll get a quick start An Ice dragon with Quickness can do some several damage on the opponents. Or change tatics if needed like change back into human form and use it as mage to do damage over distances.(Some good water magic out there IMO)

Though I've tried with another ice dragon with air magic,water magic and astral magic to get the ultimate killer machine one which gets rarly hit.(Image mirror, quickness, luck, twisted fate etc.)


best regards
