Re: D2 vs Aow:SM

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I did not mean to say the term was coined with PC games. I can recall it being thrown around in the old AH 'General' and Strategy & Tactics wargaming...

Re: D2 vs Aow:SM

Re: D2 vs Aow:SM

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">In Dom2 the player can give his commanders a limited number of combat formation and tactical orders prior to a battle. I find this far more realistic...

Re: Dispelling Spells

'Dispel'is a Level 5 enchantment spell that attempts to dispel an active global enchantment. It requires Astral 3 and has a base cost of 30 gems, but the more gems input the greater the chance of...

Re: Indie Battle Question

I feel real sorry for these guys! Taking on horrific troops is bad enough, but with death from friendly crossbows, archers, javelins and protective castings, well personally, I'd desert real quick,...

Re: Indie Battle Question

Johan had the answer for me. Seems my Goddess was killing off her own followers with Breath of Winter, a lev1 Enchantment spell, 0 gem cost. I just lost another commander to this friendly fire....

Re: Indie Battle Question

This was pretty early on in the game, turn 14 or so. The highest magic level researched was 2, so I think the 'cold' graphic representations were from the Goddess's Last act, casting a cold bolt....

Re: Indie Battle Question

Yes, Dekent, sounds exactly like what occurred with my troops. My enemy was a low level threat, a Druid and a few of his woodsmen and blowpipes. Nothing that I believe could have been responsible for...

Re: Indie Battle Question

Thanks for the reply, Chris. I didn't save the turn file unfortunately. There was no indication of her being spelled on her character stats just prior to her going poof within the battle animation....

Indie Battle Question

My troops are about to win an independent battle. The Last routed enemy troop leaves the field and there's a sound effect, like a mindbLast, and one of my troops goes poof. There's no mention of a...

Re: Enter Water tiles (demo)

I was getting hammered by AI nations too, Acenoid. I found that if I didn't attack AI player nations, there was a good chance they wouldn't attack me (at least until the indie provinces were gone). I...

Re: Is Cyclops worth it as a pretender god?

It does seem to track that the Jotunheim diseases were contracted due to supply problems between their first and subsequent offensives, rather than to anything occuring during the battles. Thank you...

Re: Is Cyclops worth it as a pretender god?

I also thought the Mach militia to be pretty worthless, until I saw them reliably disease virtually every enemy heavy hitter they attacked. Of course, they have to live/'not route' long enough to...

Re: Its shipping...

Thanks for the update, Tim! It's a rarity these days for a company to keep their customers informed of the status of their paid orders. A tracking URL on an email has become the defacto standard and...

Re: magical summons anyone ?

Add my thanks to Illwinter. As a newcomer to Dominions, but a veteran strategy game player, I have been blown away by the depth of play and the quality of the AI in the demo. It has provided more of...
