Re: How long does it take to win

I don't think the demo is long enough to have a fun satisfying game... With all land oposition you could win with, say, a water9/fire9 bless with Kailisa but this involves rush strategies that miss...

Re: Inkpot End Advice

Is the SDR +1? I was under the impression it was +2.
The manual doesn't seem to say - it just says 'blood hunt bonus for blood mages'.
It's definitely a bonus to effective magic level though, so...

Re: Mercenary Recruitment Question:

Movement of units into friendly provinces happens before combat though. If I'm facing a big AI attack and want to recruit mercs, I won't recruit them in a province I might lose. Instead, I recruit...

Re: Blood Kings: Lanka vs. Mictlan

AFAIK research points should be fixed for all units. The formula is something like:
Base value (2, I think) + sum of magic paths + experience + any special +/- the unit gets (e.g. sages & wizards...

I think by 'oldest' he means 'has been using the forum longest'.
Illwinter used to use a different forum back in the Doms1 days and at least a few people on here used to post there, so I doubt we'll...

Re: Upkeep for summoned units

Upkeep is based on a unit's recruitment cost, which isn't immediately obvious for summoned units. Trolls can be recruited from a site and cost 50 gold each IIRC.

Any summonable unit that is also a...

Re: I\'d like to know too...

Shadow brand has the Leeching Darkness effect. I don't know if this is lifedrain, but I do know that it affects more than one square, so it's possible to kill your own commander with it... I lost one...

Re: Suggestions for fighting against Yomi

I've now got my copy of Doms3 and I've played two SP games with Yomi as one of the AIs. Both with all AIs on difficult, the second also had all set to standard mentality, Aran and Eye maps.
On both...

Re: One restriction...

I think this is an actual bug in the game, rather than a problem with the description. Ritual of Rebirth dates back from Doms1 where the hall of fame was fixed at 10 entries. In Doms2 the spell still...

Unless you have Misfortune 3 of course, then you'll never get national heros.

Re: ME Mictlan

About 'taking advantage of your neghbour's good dominion'... AFAIK you don't get benefits from positive enemy dominion, so if your enemy has a turmoil dominion in your province you'll lose gold, but...

Re: 6 hp?

The most common Doms2 undead-damaging sity seemed to be the nature site 'sacred grove' (or something like that). While it does sound 'holy' it is found with the nature skill... the holy sites that...

Re: Ramblings on siegecraft

Wouldn't it be the population of the occupied province who should end up doing the repairing, rather than troops?

Re: I love Bogus

Regarding quickness:

Re: Hi, I\'m new! And.. uh.. help?

Don't forget to build lots of temples. I've seen more than a few posts in Dom3 and Dom2 where new players have lost the game because their dominion became too weak.
Against the AI, I first conquer a...

Re: Standard special ability, totally pointless?

Re: The Jevellan Wall !??!???

AFAIK magic sites that give buildings don't say so on the magic site description... although I've been away from doms for a few weeks so it might be my memory being faulty.
