I don't know - it would be amusing to try and make a theme based on a Call of Cthuluh / Bunnies and Burrows crossover.

Then maybe a unit or adjustment of the starchildren for the summons. Maybe make the summonig a little easier that theme.

Enh. The Void Summons are plenty easy for the base theme, if you set up appropriately. Your Dominion and your Luck scale seem to play a part in the outcome.

BTW, the False Dawn mod is really quite interesting, as an alternative to how standard Rlyeh operates.

PIRATE robots, I hope! (Or is it Robot Pirates?) <hr /></blockquote>LOL I like Robot Pirates, Pirate Robots sounds like pirates that have toy robots....hmmm now I am even more confused. Not only are they Robot Pirates but also they are Flying Robot Pirates!

The multi game we are in will be interesting since this is my first experiment with this. It will be fun having flying Crushers and Golems flying out of the back water provinces. This should allow me to strike anywhere on the map...well thats the theory anyway. lol

lol Having flashbacks of seeing my younger brother playing with Transformers I think he had one that changed from a Robot to a Tractor Trailer or something like that.

I thought N�got Gick Fell answered your question early in the tread...

I guess it's due to the way themes were introduced in Dominions 2. In PPP, Utgard was the standard Jotunheim, and Ashen Empire was the standard Ermor. Since these are the only 2 old nations which had their base theme changed, Iron Woods and Broken Empire had to be designed from scratch and got distinctive names, while the other nation's standard themes were just 'imported' from PPP unchanged.

PPP (or Dom:PPP) is Dominions 1: Priests, Prophets and Pretenders. Besides being the standard, what are now called Utgard and Ashen Empire weren't only standard for those nations. There were no themes, and they were everything that nation had to offer. Personally, I think it is thematic and wish more nations had better name for the base theme than simple 'normal'.
