Shmonk, if large armies scare you, be warned! You ain't seen nuthin' yet!

Shame that mass flight didn't work. The idea of dead elephants flying over castle walls really cracks me up.

Re: Turn 58
 

Flying dead elephants?? Boy, I'm missing all the fun stuff.
All I get our flying arrows, or the occasional hawk. But no elephants. Heck, I'd even take a flying horse. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Turn 59

Only two random attacks this turn. Joy. One of those is the ermorian cultist one.

Champion of Pangeae gets in the hall of fame after his first fight where he killed 2 guys, but in the hall of fame he has 10 kills?

I don't know why people find the deathmatch worthless. It's +150 experience, good chance of hall of fame ability and the trident has good stats and quikness.

Re: Deathmatch
 

The deathmatch is generally considered worthless because whoever wins it MUST FIGHT in all subsequent deathmatch battles. Since your enemies then know exactly what you will be sending to the deathmatch, they can customize thier response and kill your (probably valuable?) unit. This is particularly the case if you send your Pretender into the ring (!!!!)

Re: Deathmatch
 

Nonetheless I still find it useful, partularly since in most multiplayer games everyone ignores it. It is usually well worth sending some cheap worthless commander since it often does not need to fight anything unless an AI is in the game. In some cases I might send mages or even my pretender. Having someone counter them is not to huge a worry for a couple of reasons. First, since it is ignored so much there is often no battle so they don't know what you sent. Second, they have to have the counter on hand on the off chance there is another death match and something else has not killed the unit meantime, that is more trouble than most players are willing to go to.

and, btw, nice to see you back to dominions http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
