knife fight in a phone booth

My buddy and I are looking to try a "knife fight in a phone booth" game: small map (like Aran), with us plus a dozen AI on impossible.

Does anyone have any other map suggestions besides Aran? I...

Re: Buff That Bod!

I deliberately chose the lower level buffs to see how the experts rate them. The contest was just for amusement value.

Buff That Bod!

Hello, and welcome to Buff That Bod, the game show where Pretenders try to take on the world. Today's contestants have no idea who they're going up against. Your job is to cast beneficial spells on...

Re: C\'tis strategy

Interesting comments. I really like mistform and ironskin but I suppose he would do ok with Quickness, Stoneskin, Personal Luck and Mirror Image.

Miasma looked impressive in my test games. I...

Re: C\'tis strategy

Hmm...you're right, behemoths should be targeted quickly. I wanted to get Ghost Riders asap so I tried to select the least amount of research outside of conjuration. I think Banefire archers are...

C\'tis strategy

I've been experimenting with C'tis (base theme). After a number of false starts the lizards started to make sense to me. Here's the strategy I'm using. I'm going to be starting a MP game with a...

Re: bleeping hell

I am not happy.

I found a site with a 20% conjuration bonus. Woohoo, Dusk Elders for 16, Wraith Centurions for 12! I quickly built a lab and castle. To my horror I discovered that my Dusk Elders...

Re: bleeping hell

I gave Soul Gate a quick try Last night. The Wraith Centurions are ridiculously fun. I tried to use them mostly them in my own dominion. That plus the significantly reduced freespawn rate meant SG...

Re: bleeping hell

Mmm, excellent suggestions. I'll go with the Lich Queen. Any thoughts on Ashen Empire vs Soul Gate? I've mostly gone with AE because it's closest to Ermor from Dom 1.

I really should tailor my...

Re: bleeping hell

Oh geebus, I didn't even think of that. Yeah okay, I got lucky. I've learned my lesson -- an amulet of antimagic is just not enough.

Been a fun learning experience recently. I tried Ermor in a 2...

bleeping hell

With the chaos caused by Bush's visit, I decided it would be good to stay at home and do some marking this afternoon and tomorrow. So naturally I am playing Dominions.

I have learned a valuable...

Re: Race Designs & Strategies

Hey Edi brings up an interesting point: for multiplayer, what tends to be the most popular mods? I haven't played with mods so far, but it sounds like there are some pretty interesting ones. I like...

Re: Race Designs & Strategies

I can imagine that by midgame Ermor is darn hard to beat. Surviving to then is the trick. I found that versus 12 impossible AI opponents, I cannot wait for the freespawns. Archbishops summoning...

Re: Race Designs & Strategies

Fascinating. I have never tried the Spectres; I'll have to give them a shot. I like the drain for the improved magic resistance, but yeah in multiplayer it would be a dumb idea. Wouldn't 4S be risky,...

Re: Race Designs & Strategies

I actually really like Watchtowers and Mausoleums, but I'm not sure how good they are in multiplayer, so I went for the Wizards Tower instead. Anything that takes > 2 turns to build or costs > 300...

Re: I caught myself cheating

I'm okay with blood slaves so long as they are with my commanders. I think they're safer when they can run around unmolested. If I stick them in my pool, they start disappearing. I suspect one of my...

I caught myself cheating

"Message from Host:

Machaka had an unexplainable increase of wealth this turn. This is probably caused by cheating."

I'm shocked. Shocked and outraged. I had no idea I was cheating. I must have...
