Marignon looks much more spanish than french (inquisition and, in the theme, navigators)

[UNIVAC]

A quick question: Why FEAW here? I know mystics get a random in elemental magic, but still, why not represent them as random (seeing that you also have ??? later on)? It's not guaranteed that you'll start with all of these, and it's not included in you initial mage selection.

And a quick note : Jotunheim is spelled "Jotumheim" in the pdf.

EXCELLENT work. Another great example that Users can fill in the blanks nicely. Especially for a game where the devs allow the re-use of in-game graphics.
Thank You

In my experience, if you build 2 or 3 mystics, you will have all the elemental paths at at least level 1. Technically Dominions has "#" (random elemental) "$" (random sorcery) and "?" (random magic) but these are not shown in the game, so there are no graphics but "?" for the PDF.

Good GRIEF, Saber Cherry. You're amazing. I'll try and get this stuff in over the next few days...
Great job! Boy do I have my work cut out for me!

Oh and great addition of the leader types. That'll work great.

Yeah, you BETTER appreciate it! I was supposed to be working and you distracted me

P.S. This might not all fit on your cute little reference chart, so if it doesn't, don't worry=) However, some things you might be able to condense by iconizing them: Flying, Poison, Stealthy, Fireproof, Trample, and etc have icons... and some, like Heavy and Light Cavalry, might be iconized by cutting a typical HCAV and LCAV unit pic from the game.

But please, don't feel pressured to do a huge amount of work just because I posted some information - if it's not fun, don't bother

P.S. Someone else can do the subthemes=)

[Gothmog]

Well, here's a quick update.
Update image

I've tried to incorporate as much of Saber Cherry excellent data, but I've tried to forgo the whole abbreviation thing. (This was supposed to be geared toward newbies after all.) I'll probably have to drop the keyboard shortcuts, and put it on a LEGAL size sheet because of adding in the Themes. What do you think of the screenshot?

Well, everyone since we can't bother SC to gather anymore info, on account of SCs already impressive contribution, please help by gathering theme information in the form SCs already submitted. As you can see on the screenshot, I've got alot of blank cells to fill...
