Re: Stuck in a game

Why, look at that! There's the silly bugger, hiding on an island in the southeastern corner of the map.

Stuck in a game

After several false starts, I got a good game going as Senator Santorum of the Empire. I whupped some lousy Demonologist and a whole pile of independents. My dominance is unchallenged!

Um, except...

Re: Late game EA Abyisa. Where is the on button?

Um, yeah. Scorpion Men rock hard. They're late-game only, and quite a bit expensive, but they're very nice.

Burning Ones are great units, but cap-only and very resource-heavy. And the strategic...

Re: So, how do you play this game?

Starting as a Warlord seems to be a bit simpler. I flailed my way through several false starts, but now I'm playing a game as a Senator in the Empire stage, and it's going rather well. I'll try some...

Re: Gently Murderous Winter?

Echo that advice ... Always "soften up" your Murderous Winter targets with a few Wolven Winter castings first. It makes a huge difference.

Re: Lost an Eye?

I had that same issue in an Abysia game. I was playing a Phoenix, and every Anathemant Dragon got an Eye of Aiming to compensate for his lousy accuracy.

The solution is to make sure that you fill...

Re: Thuggity Thug [efficient thug builds]

In Dom1, a Jotun Jarl made an excellent Thug. I haven't played the giants in Dom3 yet, but I don't think they've changed so much as to render the Jarls non-thuggable.

Re: RE: \"Upgrade\" options between Dominion series.

I'm not sure if there's any precedent for this in the gaming world. I own a licensed copy of Civ3, and I didn't get any discount on Civ4. I own both the original Pirates! and the remade Pirates!...

Re: Rate of feedback on nation mods

Re: Pimp My Pretender

The Sickle Whose Crop Is Pain works well as a Thug weapon, and the free death gems are a nice bonus. However, I think it's a bit underpowered as a SC weapon.
